Addressing Health Disparities in South Africa's Eastern Cape: Developing an E...Kathryn Cicerchi
This presentation was given in defense of my Master of Public Health capstone project for the Colorado School of Public Health on December 4, 2015.
ABSTRACT
Background
The Keiskamma Trust, a community organization operating in the Ngqushwa Local Municipality of South Africa’s Eastern Cape Province, works to foster hope and offer support for the vulnerable through holistic and creative programs and partnerships. In October 2015, the Keiskamma Trust Health Program launched the Masilime Gardening Program, an intervention designed to increase food security while providing psychosocial support for 60 local families.
Objective
To develop an evaluation plan for the Masilime Gardening Program allowing Keiskamma Trust to collect feedback and reliable data about the new program.
Process
Following discussions with Keiskamma Trust staff, a logic model was created to depict the relationships between program activities and intended outcomes. Plans were made for a pilot program, group interview and pre-post questionnaire instrument to allow for proper program evaluation.
Outcomes
Developed process documents and an evaluation guide to aid Keiskamma Trust staff in implementing the evaluation plan. Also made recommendations for further program improvement.
Conclusions and Future Use
Executing the evaluation plan will allow the Keiskamma Trust to collect reliable data on the Masilime Gardening Program, allowing for program adjustments and—ultimately—greater impact.
Title: Sense of Taste
Presenter: Dr. Faiza, Assistant Professor of Physiology
Qualifications:
MBBS (Best Graduate, AIMC Lahore)
FCPS Physiology
ICMT, CHPE, DHPE (STMU)
MPH (GC University, Faisalabad)
MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan)
Learning Objectives:
Describe the structure and function of taste buds.
Describe the relationship between the taste threshold and taste index of common substances.
Explain the chemical basis and signal transduction of taste perception for each type of primary taste sensation.
Recognize different abnormalities of taste perception and their causes.
Key Topics:
Significance of Taste Sensation:
Differentiation between pleasant and harmful food
Influence on behavior
Selection of food based on metabolic needs
Receptors of Taste:
Taste buds on the tongue
Influence of sense of smell, texture of food, and pain stimulation (e.g., by pepper)
Primary and Secondary Taste Sensations:
Primary taste sensations: Sweet, Sour, Salty, Bitter, Umami
Chemical basis and signal transduction mechanisms for each taste
Taste Threshold and Index:
Taste threshold values for Sweet (sucrose), Salty (NaCl), Sour (HCl), and Bitter (Quinine)
Taste index relationship: Inversely proportional to taste threshold
Taste Blindness:
Inability to taste certain substances, particularly thiourea compounds
Example: Phenylthiocarbamide
Structure and Function of Taste Buds:
Composition: Epithelial cells, Sustentacular/Supporting cells, Taste cells, Basal cells
Features: Taste pores, Taste hairs/microvilli, and Taste nerve fibers
Location of Taste Buds:
Found in papillae of the tongue (Fungiform, Circumvallate, Foliate)
Also present on the palate, tonsillar pillars, epiglottis, and proximal esophagus
Mechanism of Taste Stimulation:
Interaction of taste substances with receptors on microvilli
Signal transduction pathways for Umami, Sweet, Bitter, Sour, and Salty tastes
Taste Sensitivity and Adaptation:
Decrease in sensitivity with age
Rapid adaptation of taste sensation
Role of Saliva in Taste:
Dissolution of tastants to reach receptors
Washing away the stimulus
Taste Preferences and Aversions:
Mechanisms behind taste preference and aversion
Influence of receptors and neural pathways
Impact of Sensory Nerve Damage:
Degeneration of taste buds if the sensory nerve fiber is cut
Abnormalities of Taste Detection:
Conditions: Ageusia, Hypogeusia, Dysgeusia (parageusia)
Causes: Nerve damage, neurological disorders, infections, poor oral hygiene, adverse drug effects, deficiencies, aging, tobacco use, altered neurotransmitter levels
Neurotransmitters and Taste Threshold:
Effects of serotonin (5-HT) and norepinephrine (NE) on taste sensitivity
Supertasters:
25% of the population with heightened sensitivity to taste, especially bitterness
Increased number of fungiform papillae
