Indigenising interventions to impact STI and BBV inequality among First Peoples of Australia
In this document, James Ward discusses ongoing high rates of STIs among Aboriginal communities in Australia and potential strategies to address health inequalities. He notes STIs remain difficult to discuss and are particularly impacting remote areas. Recent initiatives discussed include the Young Deadly Free campaign promoting education and testing, national sentinel surveillance of testing coverage through ATLAS, and a national survey of Aboriginal youth knowledge and behaviors called GOANNA. Precision public health approaches using genomic and health services data are also proposed. Ward advocates for empowering Aboriginal leadership and centering community-based approaches to enable strength-based and culturally appropriate STI control.
Health literacy presentation
Community Health and Information Network (CHAIN) partnered with several patient and consumer organizations to organize a public dialogue on health literacy in Gayaza, Uganda with support from MSD. The objectives were to raise awareness of health literacy gaps, engage communities, and discuss roles in promoting health literacy. Activities included stakeholder discussions, HIV testing, cancer screening, exhibitions, and drama/dance performances. Over 600 people attended, 82 received cancer screenings and 305 were tested for HIV with 20 positive results. The event aimed to educate the community and engage organizations and residents in addressing health issues.

1) Indigenous communities in Australia continue to experience high rates of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and blood-borne viruses (BBVs) such as HIV, hepatitis C, and syphilis.
2) Several initiatives have been implemented to address this issue, including the Young Deadly Free campaign, but STIs and BBVs remain a significant problem.
3) New approaches combining health service data, pathogen genomics, and social determinants of health show promise in more precisely targeting interventions and eliminating diseases like hepatitis C.

HIV/AIDS
The document discusses how various organizations in South Africa are using art forms like music, theater, film, and visual art to raise awareness about HIV/AIDS and support those affected. It mentions concerts by groups like the Soweto Gospel Choir that raise funds for AIDS orphans. It also discusses documentary films and theater productions that educate about HIV/AIDS and how anti-retroviral drugs have helped people living with the disease. Art exhibitions and sales of artworks by groups like Art AIDS Art also aim to generate income for families impacted by HIV/AIDS in South Africa.
National aids control programme
The document outlines the history and activities of India's National AIDS Control Program (NACP) which was established in 1987 by the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare to prevent the spread of HIV/AIDS. It discusses the objectives and phases of NACP from 1987 to the present, highlighting key activities like surveillance, prevention among high-risk groups, care and treatment, blood safety, and community outreach. The goal of NACP is to provide accessible HIV/AIDS services across India through strategies tailored for different state-level epidemics.
Lammertink, Barbara (3337367) - A matter of life and birth - master thesis final
This document is a thesis written by Barbara Lammertink titled "A matter of life and birth: Health seeking experiences of HIV positive women in rural Malawi." It explores the barriers to women accessing prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT) services in Malawi through interviews with HIV positive women. The summary reveals that gender norms and cultural practices significantly influence women's access to healthcare. Male partners often do not provide emotional or financial support for healthcare. Additionally, lack of ability to disclose HIV status within marriage contributes to barriers in access. The research argues PMTCT services should adopt a broader health perspective and empower women to make their own reproductive healthcare decisions.

Engaging Traditional and Religious Leadership in accelerating HIV & GBV preve...Regional AIDS Training Network
This document describes a program called the SAfAIDS "Rock" Integrated Model that aims to engage traditional and religious leaders in accelerating HIV and gender-based violence prevention through culture transformation strategies. The program was developed by SAfAIDS based on evidence from previous community-based work. It involves training leaders, facilitating culture dialogue sessions, campaigns, and other activities to promote protective cultural practices and address harmful ones. An initial pilot was successful in changing behaviors and practices. The program was then expanded across multiple Southern African countries and focuses specifically on working with traditional leaders as prevention champions.Ukraine [HIV/AIDS project]
In early 2011, a PEPFAR consultant from Kyiv conducted a training for teachers in Svalyava District, Ukraine on topics related to HIV/AIDS such as biology, transmission, stigma, and behavior changes. The teachers were given resources to teach their students about HIV/AIDS in March and April. Students participated in a poster contest and the winner was announced. In March and April, a project team spread knowledge about HIV/AIDS to villages throughout the district through informational sessions. In late April, youth from the villages visited an HIV/AIDS center in Uzhhorod to learn more and get confidential testing. In May, the project concluded by raising awareness on World AIDS Day as youth distributed informational booklets in
HIV Pandemic Research Project
- Sub-Saharan Africa has the highest number of people (22.5 million) living with HIV/AIDS, followed by South and South-East Asia (4.1 million).
- HIV is transmitted through unprotected sex with an infected partner, sharing needles contaminated with infected blood, and transmission from mother to child during pregnancy, childbirth, or breastfeeding.
- Education about safe sex practices and increasing access to antiretroviral drugs are seen as important strategies for controlling the spread of HIV/AIDS.

MBAWALA REPORTA 2014
The students conducted a community field work in Mbawala village to identify health problems and plan interventions. They found issues with water safety, lack of bed net use, and STIs due to local beliefs. They provided health education on water treatment, bed net use, STIs/HIV, and nutrition. The students also assessed child nutrition, practiced administrative duties, and concluded that improved health education, water treatment, drug supply, and facility infrastructure would benefit the community.
DIALOGUE
The document summarizes the results of community dialogue meetings held in Lira and Alebtong districts of Uganda to discuss maternal and child health and HIV/AIDS services. The meetings found that health centers suffered from low staffing, occasional drug stockouts, and poor patient-provider relations. Participants agreed to establish scorecard teams at each health facility involving community members, health workers, and leaders to monthly monitor and publicly display key service indicators to promote accountability. The initiative aims to strengthen health service delivery through participatory monitoring and feedback between communities and providers.

chemistry investigatory project
The development of nanogold-based cancer therapy could revolutionize oncology by providing a more targeted, less invasive treatment option. This project contributes to the growing body of research aimed at harnessing nanotechnology for medical applications, paving the way for future clinical trials and potential commercial applications.
Cancer remains one of the leading causes of death worldwide, prompting the need for innovative treatment methods. Nanotechnology offers promising new approaches, including the use of gold nanoparticles (nanogold) for targeted cancer therapy. Nanogold particles possess unique physical and chemical properties that make them suitable for drug delivery, imaging, and photothermal therapy.
PGx Analysis in VarSeq: A User’s Perspective
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.

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.
