Johal, Shannon Wieloch Submitted in partial completion of the Master of Science Degree at Sarah Lawrence College, May 2017 1/34 Katherine Dao and Julia Russo Abstract Family health history (FHH) is a simple and cost-effective clinical tool widely used by genetic professionals. Although the value of FHH for assessing personal and familial health and reproductive risk within a prenatal population has been demonstrated in past studies, its utility within a genetic carrier screening population has not been evaluated. The purpose of this study was to examine the utility of FHH as a clinical screening tool and explore the general outcomes of full FHH evaluations within an expanded carrier screening (ECS) population.

  • FAQ REGARDING DISEASE REPORTING in MONTANA | Rev
    Disease Reporting in Montana: Frequently Asked Questions Title 50 Section 1-202 of the Montana Code Annotated (MCA) outlines the general powers and duties of the Montana Department of Public Health & Human Services (DPHHS). The three primary duties that serve as the foundation for disease reporting in Montana state that DPHHS shall: • Study conditions affecting the citizens of the state by making use of birth, death, and sickness records; • Make investigations, disseminate information, and make recommendations for control of diseases and improvement of public health to persons, groups, or the public; and • Adopt and enforce rules regarding the reporting and control of communicable diseases. In order to meet these obligations, DPHHS works closely with local health jurisdictions to collect and analyze disease reports. Although anyone may report a case of communicable disease, such reports are submitted primarily by health care providers and laboratories. The Administrative Rules of Montana (ARM), Title 37, Chapter 114, Communicable Disease Control, outline the rules for communicable disease control, including disease reporting. Communicable disease surveillance is defined as the ongoing collection, analysis, interpretation, and dissemination of disease data. Accurate and timely disease reporting is the foundation of an effective surveillance program, which is key to applying effective public health interventions to mitigate the impact of disease. What diseases are reportable? A list of reportable diseases is maintained in ARM 37.114.203. The list continues to evolve and is consistent with the Council of State and Territorial Epidemiologists (CSTE) list of Nationally Notifiable Diseases maintained by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). In addition to the named conditions on the list, any occurrence of a case/cases of communicable disease in the 20th edition of the Control of Communicable Diseases Manual with a frequency in excess of normal expectancy or any unusual incident of unexplained illness or death in a human or animal should be reported.

  • The Blemishes of Modern Society? Acne Prevalence in the Dogon of Mali Christine E
    325 original Evolution, Medicine, and Public Health [2016] pp. 325–337 research doi:10.1093/emph/eow027 article The blemishes of modern society? Acne prevalence in the Dogon of Mali Christine E. Campbell1 and Beverly I. Strassmann*,1 1Department of Anthropology & Institute for Social Research, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI, USA *Corresponding author. Department of Anthropology & Research Center for Group Dynamics, University of Michigan, 426 Thompson St, Ann Arbor, MI 48104, USA. E-mail: [email protected] Received 26 May 2016; revised version accepted 00 0000 ABSTRACT Background and Objectives: Non-communicable diseases may reflect an evolutionary mismatch be- tween our human ancestry and modern environments. To explore the mismatch hypothesis for Acne vulgaris, we studied the prevalence and severity of acne in Dogon adolescents in Mali, West Africa. Methodology: We graded the prevalence and severity of acne in 1182 Dogon adolescents aged 11–18 years from nine villages using facial photos taken as part of a prospective cohort study. Eighty-nine (89%) of the individuals in the cohort migrated to the city during adolescence, enabling us to assess the effect of urban migration. Using multivariable logistic regression, we estimated the effect of predictor variables on the presence of acne. Results: The prevalence of acne in the cohort was 28%, with 90% of cases being mild or very mild. Thus, the prevalence and severity of acne was much lower than for adolescents in high-income countries. Controlling for age, puberty, and body mass index (BMI), the odds of boys developing acne was 85% lower in the city than in the villages (P = 0.002).

Background Ministry of Health and family Welfare, Government of India formulated a National Policy for Treatment of Rare Diseases (NPTRD) in July, 2017. Implementation of the policy, however, faced certain challenges. A limiting factor in its implementation was bringing States on board and lack of clarity on how much Government could support in terms of tertiary care. Public Health and Hospitals is primarily a State subject. Stakeholder consultation with the State Governments at the draft stage of formulation of the policy could not be done in an elaborate manner. When the policy was shared with State Governments, issues such as cost effectiveness of interventions for rare disease vis- a-vis other health priorities, the sharing of expenditure between Central and State Governments, flexibility to State Governments to accept the policy or change it according to their situation, were raised by some of the State Governments. In the circumstances, though framed with best intent, the policy had implementation challenges and gaps, including the issue of cost effectiveness of supporting such health interventions for limited resource situation, which made it not feasible to implement.

  • Proteins That Contaminate Influenza Vaccines Have High Homology To
    Proteins that contaminate influenza vaccines have high homology to SARS-CoV-2 proteins thus increasing risk of severe COVID-19 disease and mortality Vinu Arumugham Aug 2020 [email protected] Abstract Influenza vaccines are manufactured using chicken eggs, canine kidney cells or insect cells. Chicken and dogs can be infected with numerous viruses including coronaviruses. Therefore influenza vaccines can be contaminated with coronavirus proteins. These coronavirus proteins of course have high homology to SARS-CoV-2 proteins. Further, we show that even chicken egg proteins have high homology to SARS-CoV-2 proteins. Influenza vaccine administration is known to create IgE mediated sensitization (allergy) to all proteins in the vaccine. In fact, vaccine-induced egg allergy is required for the vaccine to work and protect against influenza. This is because most influenza vaccines lack an adjuvant and they depend on the allergic reaction at the injection site to provide an adjuvant effect. Upon COVID-19 infection, patients will suffer an allergic reaction due to cross reaction against SARS- CoV-2 proteins. This predictably produces anaphylaxis symptoms. Since the viral load increases over a few days, we have slow rolling anaphylaxis. The result is damage to multiple organs. Acute respiratory distress syndrome results from lung damage. Cardiac injury due to Kounis syndrome. Coagulation dysfunction, hypotension and shock are other possible outcomes. As in anaphylaxis treatment, epinephrine, histamine H1 and H2 blockers, etc. help prevent or treat these conditions. Introduction Most influenza vaccines are manufactured using specific pathogen free (SPF) chicken eggs. The SPF specification covers 18 pathogens but that list (1) does not include coronaviruses.

  • A Framework for Extracting Phenotypic Disease Information from Public Sources
    DISNET: a framework for extracting phenotypic disease information from public sources Gerardo Lagunes-García1, Alejandro Rodríguez-González1,2, Lucía Prieto-Santamaría1, Eduardo P. García del Valle1, Massimiliano Zanin1 and Ernestina Menasalvas-Ruiz1 1 Centro de Tecnología Biomédica, Universidad Politécnica de Madrid, Pozuelo de Alarcón, Madrid, Spain 2 Escuela Técnica Superior de Ingenieros Informáticos, Universidad Politécnica de Madrid, Boadilla del Monte, Madrid, Spain ABSTRACT Background. Within the global endeavour of improving population health, one major challenge is the identification and integration of medical knowledge spread through several information sources. The creation of a comprehensive dataset of diseases and their clinical manifestations based on information from public sources is an interesting approach that allows one not only to complement and merge medical knowledge but also to increase it and thereby to interconnect existing data and analyse and relate diseases to each other. In this paper, we present DISNET (http://disnet.ctb.upm.es/), a web-based system designed to periodically extract the knowledge from signs and symptoms retrieved from medical databases, and to enable the creation of customisable disease networks. Methods. We here present the main features of the DISNET system. We describe how information on diseases and their phenotypic manifestations is extracted from Wikipedia and PubMed websites; specifically, texts from these sources are processed through a combination of text mining and natural language processing techniques. Results. We further present the validation of our system on Wikipedia and PubMed texts, obtaining the relevant accuracy. The final output includes the creation of a Submitted 13 October 2019 comprehensive symptoms-disease dataset, shared (free access) through the system's Accepted 16 January 2020 API.
