Abstract

1 | INTRODUCTION Preventive care is important for optimal health, (1) and the Affordable Care Act required that insurance plans cover certain preventive services with no cost sharing starting in [...], Objective: To examine services delivered during preventive care visits among reproductive-age women with and without chronic conditions by physician specialty. Data Sources: National Ambulatory Medical Care Surveys (2011-2018). Study Design: We examined provision of specific services during preventive care visits by physician specialty among reproductive-age female patients, overall and among women with five common chronic conditions (diabetes, hypertension, depression, hyperlipidemia, and asthma). Data Collection/Extraction Methods: The sample included preventive visits to OB/GYNs or generalist physicians where the patient was female, age 18-44, and not pregnant. Principal Findings: In OB/GYN preventive visits, reproductive health services were more likely to be provided, while non-reproductive health services were less likely to be provided, both among reproductive-age female patients overall and among those with chronic conditions. For example, pap tests were provided in 44.5% of OB/GYN preventive visits (95% CI: 40.6-48.4) and in 21.4% of generalist preventive visits (95% CI: 17.2-26.6). Lipid testing was provided in 2.8% of OB/GYN preventive visits (95% CI: 1.7-3.9) and in 30.3% of generalist preventive visits (95% CI: 26.1-34.6). Conclusions: Understanding the full range of care received in preventive visits across settings could guide recommendations to optimize where reproductive-age women with chronic conditions seek care. KEYWORDS chronic conditions, physician specialty, preventive care, reproductive health, women's health What is known on this topic * A substantial proportion of reproductive-age women receive preventive care from obstetrician-gynecologists * The prevalence of chronic conditions among US adults is high, including among reproductive-age women * Provision of specific services in preventive visits may vary by physician specialty and patient chronic condition status What this study adds * OB/GYN preventive care visits include more reproductive-related services and fewer other services relative to generalist physicians, including for patients with chronic conditions * Preventive visits with OB/GYNs were shorter on average than preventive visits with generalist physicians * Better understanding the full range of care received in preventive visits across settings by reproductive-age women with chronic conditions can help guide recommendations to optimize where this population seeks care

Abstract

This field study assessed the risk factors of pneumonia among under-5 male and female Sudanese children. The study was conducted in Omdurman Teaching Hospital within the duration 2016-2018. Children from both sexes (50 males and 50 females) who were diagnosed with pneumonia were included in the study. Data was collected using a questionnaire and interview with 100 care givers and mothers. Of those, sixty percent (60%) were illiterate or had primary school education. Forty percent (40%) had secondary or university education (p-value=0.034). Families who depend on natural ventilation were 60% compared to other methods (40%) with p- value=0.000. Children six months to one year were 42%, compared to other age groups (58%) with p-value= 0.000. Immunized children for pneumonia were 84% compared to the non-immunized (p-value=0.000). Vitamin A supplement was received by 86% with p value=0.000. Of the children, 61% were from families with less than 3 children compared to other families (14%) were p-value = 0.000. Unlike others, 62% of the care givers used traditional medicines with p-value = 0.009. Lack of exclusive breast feeding among infected children accounted for 80% compared to others with p-value = 0.000. Fever, cough and shortness of breath accounted for 46% compared to other symptoms with p-value = 0.000. It was concluded that poor educational level of care givers, low age group children, type of home ventilation, recurrent attacks, symptoms, lack of exclusive breast feeding and non-allopathic treatment are risk factors for contraction of pneumonia by under 5 children. Early presentation of the patients to hospital is a preventive measure for avoidance of contraction of pneumonia. Keywords: Pneumonia, risk factors, Sudanese children under 5 years, care givers., Introduction Pneumonia is the single largest infectious cause of death in children worldwide. It killed an estimated 920.136 under the age of five in 2015, accounting for 16% of all [...]

Willett 9,10 Environmental degradation, global warming, and rising pollution are impairing planetary health even [...], Modern medicine makes it possible for many people to live with multiple chronic diseases for decades, but this has enormous social, financial, and environmental consequences. Preclinical, epidemiological, and clinical trial data have shown that many of the most common chronic diseases are largely preventable with nutritional and lifestyle interventions that are targeting well-characterized signaling pathways and the symbiotic relationship with our microbiome. Most of the research priorities and spending for health are focused on finding new molecular targets for the development of biotech and pharmaceutical products. Very little is invested in mechanism-based preventive science, medicine, and education. We believe that overly enthusiastic expectations regarding the benefits of pharmacological research for disease treatment have the potential to impact and distort not only medical research and practice but also environmental health and sustainable economic growth. Transitioning from a primarily disease-centered medical system to a balanced preventive and personalized treatment healthcare system is key to reduce social disparities in health and achieve financially sustainable, universal health coverage for all. In this Perspective article, we discuss a range of science-based strategies, policies, and structural reforms to design an entire new disease prevention-centered science, educational, and healthcare system that maximizes both human and environmental health.
