This document outlines a research project investigating the effectiveness of a tailored workplace exercise program for preventing work-related upper limb disorders. The project will develop and implement a 12-week program of resistance, eccentric, and stretching exercises for employees at risk of such injuries. Outcome measures will assess subjective reports, physical measures, task data, and injury rates before, during, and after the program to determine if exercises can help reduce upper limb conditions when targeted to individual jobs and abilities. A literature review found prior programs have benefits but need duration of at least 10-12 weeks to be effective.
This document discusses SDS requirements in New Zealand, both currently and potential future changes. It outlines that SDSs are an important part of ensuring workplace health and safety by providing hazardous substance information. Requirements include having a compliant SDS available within 10 minutes for any hazardous chemicals on site. The document also reviews SDS content requirements, common issues with non-NZ SDSs, and potential increased enforcement of SDS compliance regulations in the future.
This document summarizes an assessment of musculoskeletal disorders on large fishing vessels in New Zealand. It finds that the risk of injury is highest on vessels over 24 meters due to more time spent at sea, more crew members, and more physically demanding tasks. The assessment identified manual handling and slips/trips/falls as the most common causes of injury. It observed many physically demanding tasks performed in difficult conditions and proposed that interventions focusing on ergonomic improvements, training, fitness and hydration could help reduce injuries in the fishing industry.
This document discusses occupational health risk assessment, legal compliance, and uncertainties. It covers New Zealand's Health and Safety Reform Bill requiring employers to eliminate or minimize risks. It also discusses risk management standards and the risk assessment process of identification, analysis, and evaluation. The document outlines uncertainties that can arise in risk identification, analysis, criteria, and evaluation for airborne exposures. It emphasizes that a lack of knowledge and imperfect information can introduce uncertainty, and risk assessors must consider how uncertainties affect the overall risk evaluation and what can be done to manage uncertainties.
This document provides information about machinery guarding standards and regulations. It discusses findings from WorkSafe inspections that found older machinery often lacked guarding while newer machinery was generally guarded. Standards like AS 4024 provide specifications for machine guarding and safety distances to prevent access to hazard zones. The document outlines various standards regarding risk assessment, guards, safety distances, and safety control systems that are relevant for achieving safe machinery guarding.
This document discusses effective health and safety strategies for an aging workforce in New Zealand. It notes that over 1 million New Zealanders are aged 55+ and nearly half of them work. As the population continues to age, employers will need to prepare for an older workforce. The document recommends that employers understand the specific needs of older workers, develop age-based risk assessments to account for common health issues, and provide tailored training, support programs and flexible work arrangements. The key messages are to identify the needs of the aging workforce, develop a risk strategy based on those needs, and provide relevant health and safety information.
The document discusses creating a healthy lifestyle through work-life balance. It emphasizes finding meaningful work that provides physical activity, social connection, and financial security. It recommends developing a career plan to ensure work remains fulfilling and aligns with one's goals. Additionally, it suggests maintaining health through regular checkups, exercise, nutrition, financial planning, and avoiding stressors like smoking or overwork. The overall message is that prioritizing well-being, balance, and fulfillment across work, health, and personal life leads to positive outcomes.
This document discusses health loss and its causes in New Zealand. It uses the measure of disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) to estimate health loss. Mental disorders, injury, and chronic diseases are among the leading causes of health loss across different age groups. Projections estimate a 13% increase in DALYs from 2006 to 2016, with cancer, heart disease, and anxiety/depressive disorders as the top causes. Risk factors like tobacco use, high BMI, and injury risks are preventable contributors to health loss. The document advocates for occupational health programs to identify workplace hazards, monitor employee health, and manage risks to keep employees fit for work.
The skin is the largest organ and its health plays a vital role among the other sense organs. The skin concerns like acne breakout, psoriasis, or anything similar along the lines, finding a qualified and experienced dermatologist becomes paramount.

GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS AND GASTRITIS
Osvaldo Bernardo Muchanga
Gastrointestinal Infections
GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS result from the ingestion of pathogens that cause infections at the level of this tract, generally being transmitted by food, water and hands contaminated by microorganisms such as E. coli, Salmonella, Shigella, Vibrio cholerae, Campylobacter, Staphylococcus, Rotavirus among others that are generally contained in feces, thus configuring a FECAL-ORAL type of transmission.
Among the factors that lead to the occurrence of gastrointestinal infections are the hygienic and sanitary deficiencies that characterize our markets and other places where raw or cooked food is sold, poor environmental sanitation in communities, deficiencies in water treatment (or in the process of its plumbing), risky hygienic-sanitary habits (not washing hands after major and/or minor needs), among others.
These are generally consequences (signs and symptoms) resulting from gastrointestinal infections: diarrhea, vomiting, fever and malaise, among others.
The treatment consists of replacing lost liquids and electrolytes (drinking drinking water and other recommended liquids, including consumption of juicy fruits such as papayas, apples, pears, among others that contain water in their composition).
To prevent this, it is necessary to promote health education, improve the hygienic-sanitary conditions of markets and communities in general as a way of promoting, preserving and prolonging PUBLIC HEALTH.
Gastritis and Gastric Health
Gastric Health is one of the most relevant concerns in human health, with gastrointestinal infections being among the main illnesses that affect humans.
Among gastric problems, we have GASTRITIS AND GASTRIC ULCERS as the main public health problems. Gastritis and gastric ulcers normally result from inflammation and corrosion of the walls of the stomach (gastric mucosa) and are generally associated (caused) by the bacterium Helicobacter pylor, which, according to the literature, this bacterium settles on these walls (of the stomach) and starts to release urease that ends up altering the normal pH of the stomach (acid), which leads to inflammation and corrosion of the mucous membranes and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
In addition to bacterial infections, gastritis and gastric ulcers are associated with several factors, with emphasis on prolonged fasting, chemical substances including drugs, alcohol, foods with strong seasonings including chilli, which ends up causing inflammation of the stomach walls and/or corrosion. of the same, resulting in the appearance of wounds and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
Among patients with gastritis and/or ulcers, one of the dilemmas is associated with the foods to consume in order to minimize the sensation of pain and discomfort.

Breast cancer: Post menopausal endocrine therapyDr. Sumit KUMAR
Breast cancer in postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) status is a common and complex condition that necessitates a multifaceted approach to management. HR+ breast cancer means that the cancer cells grow in response to hormones such as estrogen and progesterone. This subtype is prevalent among postmenopausal women and typically exhibits a more indolent course compared to other forms of breast cancer, which allows for a variety of treatment options.
Diagnosis and Staging
The diagnosis of HR+ breast cancer begins with clinical evaluation, imaging, and biopsy. Imaging modalities such as mammography, ultrasound, and MRI help in assessing the extent of the disease. Histopathological examination and immunohistochemical staining of the biopsy sample confirm the diagnosis and hormone receptor status by identifying the presence of estrogen receptors (ER) and progesterone receptors (PR) on the tumor cells.
Staging involves determining the size of the tumor (T), the involvement of regional lymph nodes (N), and the presence of distant metastasis (M). The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging system is commonly used. Accurate staging is critical as it guides treatment decisions.
Treatment Options
Endocrine Therapy
Endocrine therapy is the cornerstone of treatment for HR+ breast cancer in postmenopausal women. The primary goal is to reduce the levels of estrogen or block its effects on cancer cells. Commonly used agents include:
Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERMs): Tamoxifen is a SERM that binds to estrogen receptors, blocking estrogen from stimulating breast cancer cells. It is effective but may have side effects such as increased risk of endometrial cancer and thromboembolic events.
Aromatase Inhibitors (AIs): These drugs, including anastrozole, letrozole, and exemestane, lower estrogen levels by inhibiting the aromatase enzyme, which converts androgens to estrogen in peripheral tissues. AIs are generally preferred in postmenopausal women due to their efficacy and safety profile compared to tamoxifen.
Selective Estrogen Receptor Downregulators (SERDs): Fulvestrant is a SERD that degrades estrogen receptors and is used in cases where resistance to other endocrine therapies develops.
Combination Therapies
Combining endocrine therapy with other treatments enhances efficacy. Examples include:
Endocrine Therapy with CDK4/6 Inhibitors: Palbociclib, ribociclib, and abemaciclib are CDK4/6 inhibitors that, when combined with endocrine therapy, significantly improve progression-free survival in advanced HR+ breast cancer.
Endocrine Therapy with mTOR Inhibitors: Everolimus, an mTOR inhibitor, can be added to endocrine therapy for patients who have developed resistance to aromatase inhibitors.
Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy is generally reserved for patients with high-risk features, such as large tumor size, high-grade histology, or extensive lymph node involvement. Regimens often include anthracyclines and taxanes.

Are you looking for a long-lasting solution to your missing tooth?
Dental implants are the most common type of method for replacing the missing tooth. Unlike dentures or bridges, implants are surgically placed in the jawbone. In layman’s terms, a dental implant is similar to the natural root of the tooth. It offers a stable foundation for the artificial tooth giving it the look, feel, and function similar to the natural tooth.
PGx Analysis in VarSeq: A User’s PerspectiveGolden Helix
Since our release of the PGx capabilities in VarSeq, we’ve had a few months to gather some insights from various use cases. Some users approach PGx workflows by means of array genotyping or what seems to be a growing trend of adding the star allele calling to the existing NGS pipeline for whole genome data. Luckily, both approaches are supported with the VarSeq software platform. The genotyping method being used will also dictate what the scope of the tertiary analysis will be. For example, are your PGx reports a standalone pipeline or would your lab’s goal be to handle a dual-purpose workflow and report on PGx + Diagnostic findings.
The purpose of this webcast is to:
Discuss and demonstrate the approaches with array and NGS genotyping methods for star allele calling to prep for downstream analysis.
Following genotyping, explore alternative tertiary workflow concepts in VarSeq to handle PGx reporting.
Moreover, we will include insights users will need to consider when validating their PGx workflow for all possible star alleles and options you have for automating your PGx analysis for large number of samples. Please join us for a session dedicated to the application of star allele genotyping and subsequent PGx workflows in our VarSeq software.

4. Situation
• The employer renumerates well and many
employees live on lifestyle blocks.
• The employees are doing ok, but seem a bit
tired, especially during busy periods.
• Workload rapidly increasing as a result of
the growth of dairy farming in the South
Island.
5. Complication
• The company expect their business growth
to continue.
• This will put more pressure on the
employees.
• Employer and union not willing to
compromise on safety.
• The company want to put safe guards in
place before things get busier.
6. Need
• Employer wants their workforce to know they
will not let them fall through the cracks. They
want to monitor their health in some way.
• Employer wants to manage the increased risk
they will be taking on as a result of being
busier.
• Employer expressed their need by requesting
the introduction of an alcohol and drug
programme (i.e. random testing &
rehabilitation)
7.
8. Response
• Encouraged the company to channel their
efforts into a wellbeing approach - Not an
approach focused on AOD detection and
rehabilitation.
• Wellbeing approach would encompass and
address AOD issues by first working to reduce
the incidence of the causes of AOD problems.
• Advised the company that a punitive approach
could not only set the unions back up, but also
would not accomplish the outcome they were
after.
9. Response
• Company already had a comprehensive safety
policy, so a complementary health and
wellbeing strategy was drafted.
• This health and wellbeing policy encompassed
wellbeing training for staff.
• It was decided that decisions around further
action by the company would be better
informed by knowledge of where employees
were struggling and where they were doing
well.
• Data from employees was collected
anonymously from staff during wellbeing
training. This data was then aggregated into a
company wellbeing profile.

Sagaspe, et al.
(2007)
15. Response
• Overall employees had quite a high wellbeing
profile; the company and employees
themselves were doing well, but they were
tired.
• Going forward we recommended the employer
focus on helping their employees manage
fatigue (i.e. fatigue management training,
review of manageable workload, talk about
things they could help with staff).
• Suggested feedback of assessment results to
employees (awareness of where they were all
struggling).
• Recommended ways to help employees engage
in strategic caffeine use.
