The WHODAS 2.0 (World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule) is an instrument developed by the WHO (World Health Organization) for functioning and disability assessment based on the biopsychosocial framework, fully supported by the theoretical-conceptual framework of the ICF (International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health). To validate the Brazilian version of the WHODAS 2.0 for individuals with HIV/AIDS. 100 individuals with diagnosis of HIV/AIDS participated in the study. Two assessment instruments were used: the 36-item version of WHODAS 2.0 and the WHOQOL-HIV-BREF (World Health Organization Quality of Life assessment in persons infected with HIV, shorter version). The psychometric properties tested were internal consistency and criterion validity. Internal consistency was adequate for all domains, with the exception of Life Activities (α = 0.69) and Self-care (α = 0.32). Criterion validity was adequate, with moderate correlations between the WHODAS 2.0 and ...
Serial quantitation of BCR-ABL mRNA levels is an important indicator of therapeutic response for patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia and Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia, but there is substantial variation in the real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction methodologies used by different testing laboratories. To help improve the comparability of results between centers we sought to develop accredited reference reagents that are directly linked to the BCR-ABL international scale. After assessment of candidate cell lines, a reference material panel comprising 4 different dilution levels of freeze-dried preparations of K562 cells diluted in HL60 cells was prepared. After performance evaluation, the materials were assigned fixed percent BCR-ABL/control gene values according to the International Scale. A recommendation that the 4 materials be established as the first World Health Organization International Genetic Reference Panel for quantitation of BCR-ABL ...
During 2005-2006, nine measles virus (MV) genotypes were identified throughout the World Health Organization European Region. All major epidemics were associated with genotypes D4, D6, and B3. Other genotypes (B2, D5, D8, D9, G2, and H1) were only found in limited numbers of cases after importation from other continents. The genetic diversity of endemic D6 strains was low; genotypes C2 and D7, circulating in Europe until recent years, were no longer identified. The transmission chains of several indigenous MV strains may thus have been interrupted by enhanced vaccination. However, multiple importations from Africa and Asia and virus introduction into highly mobile and unvaccinated communities caused a massive spread of D4 and B3 strains throughout much of the region. Thus, despite the reduction of endemic MV circulation, importation of MV from other continents caused prolonged circulation and large outbreaks after their introduction into unvaccinated and highly mobile communities ...
The good fit of the latent variable model suggests that common causal pathways account for most of the comorbidity among the disorders considered herein. These common pathways should be the focus of future research on the development of comorbidity, although several important pairwise associations t …
The guidelines also recommend that anyone on a failing first-line regimen that does not contain dolutegravir should switch to a second-line regimen of dolutegravir plus a new NRTI backbone.. The new recommendations stress the importance of switching to dolutegravir in settings where resistance to non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) is rising. Dr Silvia Bertagnolio told a symposium organised by WHO that resistance to NNRTIs is present in over 15% of people starting antiretroviral treatment in Uganda, 20% in South Africa and over 25% in Honduras. Use of efavirenz in these settings is likely to result in treatment failure and further transmission of drug-resistant virus.. Implementing the recommendations is an urgent priority for countries as they work towards achieving the UNAIDS 90-90-90 targets - 90% of people living with HIV knowing their status, 90% of those diagnosed being on antiretroviral therapy and 90% of those on treatment having viral suppression by 2020. ...

Financial and fiduciary management. The audit identified unsupported expenditures amounting to $9.6 million. In addition, the audit revealed significant delays in the procurement of non-health commodities. Further, the audit identified lapses in fiduciary controls over procurement, the management of advances, and contract management.. Programmatic and performance management. The OIG said that the increase in the number of HIV patients on treatment will result in a treatment funding gap of at least $232 million by 2017. That number rises to $328 million if treatment is initiated when the CD4 count falls below 500 (which is the current World Health Organization recommendation). If the funding gap is not filled, the OIG said, this will result in commodity shortages and treatment disruptions by as early as mid-2016.. The OIG said that the government has not met its commitment to purchase antiretroviral medicines in 2014-2015 and that the governments plans to raise additional funding are unlikely to ...
In this study, we assessed a multi-modal intervention to improve implementation of WHO guidelines for vital sign collection and diagnosis of severe illness among hospitalized adolescents and adults in western Uganda. Our results suggest that severe illness is under-recognized and associated with substantial mortality in public and private community hospitals in a rural district of Uganda. After introducing the SIMS platform, we observed significant improvements in vital sign collection and diagnosis of key severe illness conditions, although overall rates of vital sign collection remained sub-optimal. Similar theory-informed, multi-modal implementation studies have been conducted to improve care for severely ill children in low-income settings [8]. However, to our knowledge, this is among the first to evaluate such an approach in severely ill adults and adolescents.. We found that by the end of the intervention period, nearly one in four admitted patients had met triage criteria for one or more ...

Frenzy ensued after the World Health Organization (WHO), declared processed meats a cause of colorectal and conceivably stomach cancer and that red meats are probably also a cause of pancreatic and prostate cancer. Processed Meats Rank Alongside Smoking as Cancer Causes - WHO read a headline in The Guardian. Bacon, Hot Dogs as Bad as Cigarettes read another. These reports, although based in fact, distort the actual implications of the findings by ignoring the risk-rating practices of WHO. For an individual, the risk of developing colorectal cancer because of their consumption of processed meat remains small, but this risk increases with the amount of meat consumed, commented Kurt Straif, an official with the World Health Organizations International Agency for Research on Cancer, the producer the report. In view of the large number of people who consume processed meat, the global impact on cancer incidence is of public health importance. According to figures cited by the panel, near ...

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration today alerted health care professionals to a change in heparin manufacturing that is expected to decrease the potency of the common anti-clotting drug.. To ensure the quality of heparin and to guard against potential contamination, the United States Pharmacopeia (USP), a nonprofit standards-setting organization, adopted new manufacturing controls for heparin. These changes include a modification of the reference standard for the drugs unit dose.. Manufacturers in the United States label the amount of heparin included in their products based on USP standards. The changes adopted by the USP for the heparin unit dose match the World Health Organizations International Standard (IS) unit dose definition that has been in use in Europe for many years. The revised USP reference standard and unit definition for heparin is about 10 percent less potent than the former USP unit.. A unit is the measure of a drugs activity in the body. For heparin, a unit dose is the ...
Last month, St. Louis-based agrichemical giant Monsanto Co. agreed to sell the company to German pharmaceutical and chemical conglomerate, Bayer, in an unprecedented $66 billion dollar deal. This takeover of the U.S. firm is the biggest ever by a German company. The combination would create a global agricultural and chemical giant and bring Bayer together with a leading producer of genetically engineered seeds that are engineered to resist pesticides, particularly Monsantos flagship product, Roundup.. Roundup, whose active ingredient is glyphosate, is used alongside various GE crops including corn and soybeans. In 2015, the World Health Organizations International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) released a landmark report naming glyphosate as probably carcinogenic to humans. Glyphosates EU license was set to expire this year, and some member states including France, Sweden, and the Netherlands objected to the renewal. A vote to reauthorize usage of glyphosate on a temporary basis ...

BACKGROUND: Cardiovascular risk-prediction models are used in clinical practice to identify and treat high-risk populations, and to communicate risk effectively. We assessed the validity and utility of four cardiovascular risk-prediction models in an Asian population of a middle-income country. METHODS: Data from a national population-based survey of 14,863 participants aged 40 to 65 years, with a follow-up duration of 73,277 person-years was used. The Framingham Risk Score (FRS), SCORE (Systematic COronary Risk Evaluation)-high and -low cardiovascular-risk regions and the World Health Organization/International Society of Hypertension (WHO/ISH) models were assessed. The outcome of interest was 5-year cardiovascular mortality. Discrimination was assessed for all models and calibration for the SCORE models. RESULTS: Cardiovascular risk factors were highly prevalent; smoking 20%, obesity 32%, hypertension 55%, diabetes mellitus 18% and hypercholesterolemia 34%. The FRS and SCORE models showed good ...
Being overweight can raise the likelihood of being diagnosed with cancers of the stomach and digestive tract, as well as certain brain and reproductive tumors, international researchers said.. A report in the New England Journal of Medicine adds eight more kinds of cancer to the list of those already known to be more likely among overweight people.. In 2002, the World Health Organizations International Agency for Cancer on Research (IARC), based in France, said excess pounds could raise the risk of colon, esophagus, kidney, breast and uterine cancer.. Now, it has added stomach, liver, gall bladder, pancreas, ovary and thyroid cancers, as well as a type of brain tumor known as meningioma and the blood cancer multiple myeloma, the report said.. Researchers reviewed more than 1,000 studies of excess weight and cancer risks, saying that limiting weight gain over decades can help to reduce the risk of those cancers.. The burden of cancer due to being overweight or obese is more extensive than what ...

The authors reviewed 222 articles, following 92,000 light drinkers and 60,000 non-drinkers, and showed that taking up to one alcoholic drink a day is associated with increased risk for cancer of the mouth and throat, esophagus and breast (Annals of Oncology, Feb 2013; 24(2):301-308). In 2007, the World Health Organizations International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) found that drinking alcohol is associated with cancers of the mouth, pharynx, larynx, esophagus, liver, colon, rectum, and female breast.
Resumo: BACKGROUND: The projected rise in the incidence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) could develop into a substantial health problem worldwide. Whether insulin secretagogues (sulphonylureas and meglitinide analogues) are able to prevent or delay T2DM and its associated complications in people at risk for the development of T2DM is unknown. OBJECTIVES: To assess the effects of insulin secretagogues on the prevention or delay of T2DM and its associated complications in people with impaired glucose tolerance, impaired fasting blood glucose, moderately elevated glycosylated haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) or any combination of these. SEARCH METHODS: We searched the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, MEDLINE, PubMed, Embase, ClinicalTrials.gov, the World Health Organization International Clinical Trials Registry Platform, and the reference lists of systematic reviews, articles and health technology assessment reports. We asked investigators of the included trials for information about ...
Trial registries serve as a readily accessible online resource for identifying unpublished trials and unreported outcomes. Since 2005, prospective trial registration has gained broad acceptance as an important means of enhancing transparency and tracking the existence of clinical trials at inception. Key stakeholders-including medical journal editors, legislators, and funding agencies-provide enforcement mechanisms that have greatly improved adherence to registration practices.. Basic protocol information on ongoing and completed trials of any intervention type can be retrieved via the World Health Organizations International Clinical Trials Registry Platform Search Portal (www.who.int/trialsearch/). This searches records from national and international trial registries that meet certain standards, including WHO Primary Registries and ClinicalTrials.gov. Users can search the main registry fields using key words related to the study topic, sponsor, recruitment status, and sites. When the same ...
CALIFORNIA, United States, Monday August 22, 2016 - As body weight goes up, so does cancer risk, and the longer a woman is overweight or obese, the more her risk of cancer is likely to increase.. A new study on postmenopausal women reveals that the duration of having a high body mass index (BMI) is linked to a higher risk of developing several types of cancer, from breast to endometrial.. The study, which was published in the journal PLOS Medicine, is the first to explore the relationship between overweight duration and cancer risk in a large cohort of women, according to Melina Arnold, a scientist at the World Health Organizations International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) and lead author of the study.. Given the result from previous studies supporting the overall link between obesity and cancer, our results are in line with what we know about this relationship, Arnold said. Yet it adds to current scientific evidence by suggesting that there seems to be a cumulative effect of ...
Blood pressure is defined by two values: systolic (contraction of the heart), the highest value, and diastolic (dilation of the heart), the lower. The Sixth Report of the Joint National Committee on Prevention, Detection, Evaluation, and Treatment of High Blood Pressure (JNC-VI) and the World Health Organization/International Society of Hypertension Guidelines subcommittees have agreed that both systolic and diastolic blood pressure should be used to classify hypertension. Systolo-diastolic hypertension is diagnosed when systolic and diastolic blood pressure are over 160 and 90, respectively. Isolated systolic hypertension refers to systolic blood pressure over 160 and diastolic blood pressure under 90.. Misdiagnosis may be more frequent in the elderly due to various factors, including inappropriate length of the cuff due to obesity or very low weight, fluctuations in blood pressure due to postural hypotension, and/or anxiety (white coat effect). The difficulty of measuring blood pressure in ...
Glyphosate, an herbicide and the active ingredient in Monsanto Cos popular Roundup weed killer, will be added to Californias list of chemicals known to cause cancer effective July 7, the states Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) said on Monday.. Monsanto vowed to continue its legal fight against the designation, required under a state law known as Proposition 65, and called the decision unwarranted on the basis of science and the law.. The listing is the latest legal setback for the seeds and chemicals company, which has faced increasing litigation over glyphosate since the World Health Organizations International Agency for Research on Cancer said that it is probably carcinogenic in a controversial ruling in 2015.. Dicamba, a weed killer designed for use with Monsantos next generation of biotech crops, is under scrutiny in Arkansas after the states plant board voted last week to ban the chemical.. OEHHA said the designation of glyphosate under Proposition 65 will ...

Until today, the World Health Organizations International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) had said that there were no adverse health effects from the use
Even the Government Accountability Office (GAO) bluntly stated the FDA isnt testing nearly enough in size and scope to matter, and that glyphosates werent even tested in 2014. The agency reported, FDA tested less than one-tenth of 1% of imported shipments.. The GAO also chided the FDA for not disclosing that it does not test for several commonly used pesticides with an EPA established tolerance (the maximum amount of a pesticide residue that is allowed to remain on or in a food)-including glyphosate, the most used agricultural pesticide.. The GAOs criticism makes it clear that the dangers of pesticides and herbicides arent taken seriously by federal agencies. This is not because of omission or negligence.. The FDA only started testing for glyphosates in February 2016, after being criticized for not doing so-following the release of a damning report on glyphosate dangers by the World Health Organizations International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), which re-classified glyphosate ...
Diagnostic X-rays (primarily from CT scans due to the large dose used) increase the risk of developmental problems and cancer in those exposed.[99][100][101] X-rays are classified as a carcinogen by both the World Health Organizations International Agency for Research on Cancer and the U.S. government.[92][102] It is estimated that 0.4% of current cancers in the United States are due to computed tomography (CT scans) performed in the past and that this may increase to as high as 1.5-2% with 2007 rates of CT usage.[103] Experimental and epidemiological data currently do not support the proposition that there is a threshold dose of radiation below which there is no increased risk of cancer.[104] However, this is under increasing doubt.[105] It is estimated that the additional radiation from diagnostic X-rays will increase the average persons cumulative risk of getting cancer by age 75 by 0.6-3.0%.[106] The amount of absorbed radiation depends upon the type of X-ray test and the body part ...
Weve known that our air is polluted for quite a long time. And if youve ever flown into major cities and saw the ring of filth circling them, youve witnessed this smoggy reality firsthand.. Its ugly. Its oppressive. And its a scourge on the environment.. But so far, that hasnt been quite enough to incite any real action against it. If anything, its only gotten worse. So maybe this latest bit of news from the World Health Organizations International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) will finally spark some change.. After reviewing all that available data, this agency concluded that our air is packed with substances that are known to cause cancer. And we should now classify it as a bonafide carcinogen.. You read that right. Our air is now a leading cause of cancer.. Specifically, data shows that it was responsible for some 223,000 lung cancer deaths worldwide in 2010. Research suggests that it may play a role in bladder cancer, too.. And rapidly industrializing countries-which have ...
Myth: We should eat like our ancestors. The Paleo diet goes in another direction - advocating that we follow the path of our hunter-gatherer ancestors in eating lots of energy-dense red meats, while excluding grains. We are nothing like our ancestors - instead of running around all day, most of us sit in front of our computers, Michels says. Rather than following any of the aforementioned dietary trends, she adds, the best approach is a balanced diet that limits or avoids red and processed meats, which were classified as carcinogens in 2015 by the World Health Organizations International Agency for Research on Cancer.. Myth: Red meat is a good source of iron. Michels often hears the argument that red meat is important to avoid an iron deficiency. What many dont realize, she says, is that the iron from red meat is very different from the iron that comes from vegetable sources, legumes and whole grains.. The red-meat iron actually promotes cardiovascular disease, Michels explains. The plant ...
Originally published at Heal Naturally. New evidence indicates a clear increased risk of brain cancer for longer term cell phone use.. The World Health Organizations International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) classified radiofrequency (RF) electromagnetism (EMF) as a Group 2B carcinogen in 2011: Possibly carcinogenic to humans. This was based upon research showing cell phones connected to an increased risk for glioma, a malignant form of brain cancer. Other types of brain cancer included in the research have been meningioma and schwannoma. ...
Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), characterised by a severe dysfunction of the heart muscle, often results from a myocarditis, which could be caused by a variety of organisms or mediated by autoimmune responses to the exposure of cardiac specific antigen, such as myosin, after cardiomyocyte damage. DCM of humans can be experimentally reproduced in susceptible mouse strains by immunisation with purified cardiac myosin.1 Moreover, chlamydia infection may mediate heart disease through an antigenic mimicry between the chlamydia outer membrane protein and muscle specific α myosin of the heart.2 The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of Chlamydia pneumoniae infection by measuring the serum IgG and IgA antibodies against C pneumoniae in patients with DCM.. Twenty six consecutive patients with DCM, aged 56.9 (15.5) years, diagnosed according to the World Health Organization/International Society and Federation of Cardiology criteria,3 were enrolled. Twenty eight healthy subjects, mean (SD) ...

There is a large and growing body of research that clearly demonstrates the relationship between eating animal products and increased cancer rates. Recently, the World Health Organizations International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) published the result of its extensive meta-analysis. The IARC found that processed meat is definitely a carcinogen, while red meat is probably a carcinogen. Their study did not consider the carcinogenic effects of eating poultry, fish or dairy. In the most comprehensive nutrition study ever conducted, The China Study, Dr. T. Colin Campbell shows how tumor growth is turned on and off simply by changing the protein intake of an animal. In his experiment, animals were exposed to aflatoxin, a potent carcinogen, until a tumor began growing aggressively. While the animals continued eating their normal diet of 20% protein, the tumors continued growing rapidly. But when these animals were switched to a diet with only 5% protein, the tumors stopped growing. ...

Infant formula marketing decision welcomed. The Infant Nutrition Council (INC) welcomes the Commerce Commission confirmation of the authorisation of the INCs Code of Practice for marketing infant formula.. The Code of Practice restricts the advertising and marketing of infant formula by members.. It has been in place since 2012 and is consistent with New Zealands commitment to the World Health Organisations International Code of Marketing of Breast Milk Substitutes (WHO Code).. INC Chief Executive Jan Carey says INC applied to the commission for authorisation of the Code to reassure its members that it was the appropriate response in New Zealand to the WHO Code and that they comply with the law.. Commerce Commission Chair Dr Mark Berry said After considering the feedback from a number of interested parties, the commission has reached the view that the public benefits arising from higher breastfeeding rates outweigh any lessening of competition from the arrangement, and INC agrees totally ...
