Publication étude médico-économique dépistage du col de l'utérus à l'occasion de la journée mondiale contre le cancer
Conclusions: Caregivers of children with special healthcare needs have notable levels of psychosocial challenges and those challenges are associated with their e-health resource seeking. Although e-health interventions, including ones that focus on child health education and caregiver support, may be the future of healthcare, a concerted effort is needed to educate caregivers about the benefits of e-health.
Objectives: In this study, we explored the relationships between the psychosocial health of caregivers of children with special healthcare needs and their e-health use. Additionally, the analysis examined moderating effects of a caregiver's perceptions of e-health and his or her e-health literacy on the associations among four domains of psychosocial health and e-health use.
Materials and Methods: To date, 313 caregivers of children, 12–18 years of age, with special healthcare needs have been recruited. Covariate-adjusted multivariable regressions determined associations between psychosocial health domains of caregivers and e-health use. E-health literacy and perceptions of e-health were further tested as moderators of the relationship between psychosocial health and e-health use.
Results: Among the caregiver population, 31% had problems with social functioning, 36.1% with communication, 43.3% with family relationships, and 46.3% with worrying for their child. After adjusting for demographic variables, e-health use was associated with poorer levels of social functioning, communication, worry, and family relationship.
E-health use was also associated with e-health literacy. Perceptions of e-health significantly moderated the relationships among social functioning, communication, and e-health, with the relationship being significantly stronger in caregivers with more positive perceptions of e-health.

Biological Age (Telomeres + Aging Markers)
The first time, a company combines epigenetics with measurement of telomeres.
• Why a biological aging analysis?
The aging process consists of various mechanisms that play an important role in the aging of an organism. Therefore, HealthBioCare does not only analyze the telomere length (as do many other companies), but we also refer to epigenetic aging aspects in order to better characterize aging-specific changes.
• For whom is the biological aging test recommended?
If early signs of aging are noticeable such as unwanted wrinkling, hair loss, or reduced cell renewal, then do not hesitate and use our offer today to determine your biological age.
• How can I use my results?
This aging analysis gives you the chance to influence unwanted processes that accelerate the pace of aging by modifying lifestyle by integrating more exercise into your daily life, reducing stress levels, and managing your weight. In addition, changing to a healthy diet or using food supplements can significantly increase vitality and length of life.

Blog from Graham Anderson at the Australian Open Tennis 2017: playing sport and dealing with the heat
“It’s hot here in Melbourne. Staying cool and rehydration has a big effect on the tennis players here and playing any sport in such climates. It’s not just the elite or professional athlete though, as a recreational exerciser it’s important to make sure you get the right amount of water before, during, and after exercise especially as the duration lengthens.
Water is essential to enable your body to efficiently regulate your body temperature, help lubricate your joints and transport nutrients throughout your body. If you’re not properly hydrated, your body can’t perform at its highest level. You may experience fatigue, muscle cramps, dizziness, or more serious symptoms. A simple way to make sure you’re staying properly hydrated is to check your urine. If your urine is consistently colorless or light yellow, you are most likely staying well hydrated. Dark yellow or amber-colored urine is a sign of dehydration. So check daily and drink water regularly in all weathers.”
Graham will be back with more blogs but won’t be back in Clapham at Balance Performance for a few weeks so don’t put it off, make good use of our large team of sports injury specialists.

Integrated Rural Healthcare Pilot
Integrated Rural Healthcare Pilot
Not-for-profitYear launched: 2009
Country of Operation
Target income level
- Lower-middle income (20-40%)
- Middle-income (40-60%)
- Primary care
- Secondary/tertiary care
SummaryThis project is launching a nurse practitioner-based comprehensive fixed-price health care system in Tamil Nadu. The venture will comprise a nurse-led primary healthcare facility offering diagnostics and outpatient care. A referral network will build a full healthcare continuum.
To pilot an innovative organizational and financing mechanisms in the Thanjavur district of Tamil Nadu.
Key program components
The Integrated Rural Healthcare Pilot will operate through a hub and spoke model. The spokes will be comprised of 20 front-end health kiosks operated by general nurse midwives (GNMs). Doctors located at the hubs will manage both the network of kiosks and the upward referral network for secondary and tertiary care. The doctors will provide continuous assistance to the front-end GNM's through telemedicine, videoconferencing and coordination of regular visits by specialists. In addition to the doctors, the hub will also house a pharmacy and a diagnostic lab.
Each kiosk will be situated at the Village Panchayat Level with a population ranging from 6,000 to 10,000 people. Each unit (20 Kiosks) will have a catchment population of approximately 150,000 people. The health kiosks will cater to primary health care needs and preventive-promotive exercises.
The hub and spoke model includes the centralized storage of pharmaceutical drugs, which will in turn support front-end inventories at the health kiosk managed by GNMs. The pharmacy will house over 100 generic drugs with high utilization for delivering primary health care. Drugs will be procured through a joint collaboration established with the Biocon Foundation and the Karuna Trust.
Electronic Health Records (EHR)
To implement the EHR system in the pilot site, the project has a collaboration with Yos Technologies, a Bangalore-based EHR provider. The data aggregated through this partnership will be shared jointly by the IKP Centre for Technologies in Public Health and Yos Technologies for statistical analysis governing the implementable curative as well as preventive-promotive interventions.
The project will work with the Financial Information Network Organization (FINO) to issue family-based smart cards to the clients, facilitating biometric identification (avoiding fraudulent activities) and storing primary health information. This smart-card can be used both at the kiosk level and the secondary network hospital level to link to the EHR of the given patient, avoiding duplication of tests performed, along with an appropriate medical assessment given an access to medical history of the client.
The pilot will deploy ReMeDi's (Remote Medical Diagnostics) telemedicine device at the pilot site to connect the health kiosk for video-conferencing, consultation and real time diagnostics. ReMeDi can measure and transmit basic parameters such as temperature, blood pressure, pulse rate, 12 channel ECG, and oxygen saturation level and in the blood.

As Canada continues to battle COVID-19, testing capacity and treatment research have become top priorities among health care professionals. British Columbians are beginning to see the positive impact of physical distancing, but the fight still wages on.
St. Paul’s Foundation is working to support the critical work of B.C.’s health care staff and is now asking British Columbians to join in by donating to its COVID-19 Response Fund. The special fund addresses the most urgent needs of Providence Health Care’s patients, residents and front line staff — including the team at St. Paul’s Hospital.
“Testing is the key to COVID-19 diagnostics and surveillance,” says Dr. Marc Romney, the medical director of infection prevention and control at St. Paul’s Hospital. “And high-volume testing capacity is critical in our fight to contain and control the spread of COVID-19.”

Friday Chill // Stress Busting Tips
We’ve all heard time and time again that stress is the #1 cause of illness, but for many of us, it seems impossible to escape stress in our daily lives. After a long day of hustling around from class to class, client to client, borough to borough, I often find it hard to get my brain off the hamster wheel. So, how do I keep stress from swallowing me up? I’ve discovered one sure-fire technique to finding relaxation that is simple and can be practiced anywhere…deep abdominal breathing. When you take deep breaths from the abdomen, rather than shallow breaths from your upper chest, you inhale more oxygen. The more oxygen you take in, the less tense and anxious you feel.
• Sit comfortably with a tall spine. If you are seated on a chair, be sure your feet touch the ground. Place one hand on your chest and the other on your abdomen. Note: If you find it difficult breathing from your abdomen while sitting upright, try this technique while lying on the floor.
• Breathe in through your nose for 4 counts, initiating the breath from the belly. You should feel the hand on your abdomen rise as your belly inflates, however the hand on your chest should move very little.
• Exhale through your mouth for 4 counts, forcing out as much air as you can while contracting your abdominal muscles. The hand on your abdomen should draw in as you exhale, but the hand on your chest should move very little.
• Repeat this sequence for several rounds of breath.

Because the diet isn’t as restrictive as a traditional vegan or vegetarian diet, it may be simpler to stick with — hence its No. 2 ranking in U.S. News & World Report’s Easiest Diets to Follow category. Because you’ll be eating meat some of the time, you may also be at a lower risk of the aforementioned nutrient deficiencies that vegetarians and vegans may face.
About: It may be tough to tell by looking at her photo (complete with a very toned tummy), but Hannah’s no stranger to gaining weight. She packed on about 50 pounds each time she became pregnant with her two kids until she eventually went from a size 4 to a size 12-14. The pregnancies also changed her body and made her unhappy with the way she looked. Ready for change, Hannah created a fitness and food plan for herself, stuck to it and noticed she slowly but surely lost weight and started to look more and more toned. Now she’s studying to be a personal trainer, and her blog is a place she shares all her fitness tips, nutrition ideas and motivation to help others lose weight too.
The modern-day Atkins program no longer emphasizes ketosis as necessary for weight loss, but it does appear that for some people it’s a very effective way to lose weight and control appetite. But with or without ketosis, the modern-day Atkins Nutritional Approach™ continues to be shown to be effective at keeping weight under control while supporting good health. Remember, even in the “moderate carbohydrate” diet used in the research, carbohydrates were only 35% of calories, protein was 30% and fat made up the rest. With a diet of adequate protein, good fat, high-fiber vegetables, low-glycemic fruit and a little whole grain in lifetime maintenance, you can’t go wrong!
It comes on suddenly: One minute you’re feeling great and the next you’re starving for a snack. Skip the vending machine and prepare your own healthy snacks to take to work, school or whenever you’re out and about. Why? In part, because most processed snacks are purely carbs and are the definition of empty calories, jacking your blood sugar and leaving you hungrier afterwards.
About: If the title alone doesn’t draw you in, we don’t know what will. Start with Mariana’s “About the Fluff” section, and by then you’re for sure hooked. Mariana is a Puerto Rican on a journey to get rid of everything that weighs her down, whether that’s extra pounds, distractions from living a healthy life, unhealthy relationships, stress, you name it. Her blog is a day-by-day, step-by-step process that blends humor with reality in a way you’re darn sure going to understand if you’ve ever struggled with weight.
So at age 20 my weight started to climb, but I didn’t notice or care because I was having fun. At about age 24, I still didn’t workout at all and just partied and enjoyed my time with my friends. I had an asthma attack, and went to the Doctors and that is when he told me, if I keep going this route I would die! (Thanks Dr. Becker) Pretty abrupt, but it’s true. I was hitting near 200lbs and heading down the road of disaster. I don’t think I ever made it to 200lbs, but I came pretty close. (That’s me with the brown hair and bag in the picture, gross huh?)
Glad you started to work out! It took me to my mid 30’s before I started to workout! Now I do it at least 5 times a week! You feel so much better about yourself and your doing something good!! I’m glad you have a family that supports your healthy eating! Sometimes it can be hard when they don’t!!! Keep up all the great work and keep educating yourself on a healthy lifestyle!

About: Contrary to the title, Helen’s blog is anything but “another weight loss blog.” Helen’s been on a journey to lose weight since June 2013. She’s had many ups and downs along the way — which is one of the best things you’ll notice about her posts: that she never gives up and she is extremely positive no matter how difficult things get.

Justine McCabe’s weight loss transformation story began in early 2015 after her husband unexpectedly and tragically committed suicide. Weighing 313 pounds at the time, his death shook her awake and made her realize she had to make a lot of changes. By taking control of her health, she chose to live. Justine documented her weight loss transformation in 365 days of selfies and continues to share her journey on her blog where she has lost 126 pounds, and counting!
You already know that a perfect diet doesn't exist, but many of us still can't resist the urge to kick ourselves when we indulge, eat too much, or get thrown off course from restrictive diets. The problem: This only makes it more difficult, stressful, and downright impossible to lose weight. So rather than beating yourself up for eating foods you think you shouldn't, let it go. Treating yourself to about 200 calories worth of deliciousness each day — something that feels indulgent to you — can help you stay on track for the long-haul, so allow yourself to eat, breathe, and indulge. Food should be joyful, not agonizing!
Being in optimal ketosis for a prolonged period of time (say, a month) will ensure that you experience the maximal hormonal effect from eating a low-carb diet. If this doesn’t result in noticeable weight loss, you can be certain that too many carbs are NOT part of your weight issue and not the obstacle to your weight loss. There are, in fact, other causes of obesity and being overweight. The next three tips in this series might help you.

Her blog documents her weight loss journey that begins at 212 pounds, losing 52 pounds, and all the fluctuations that happen in between.

About: Annamarie’s weight loss story is nothing to sneeze at. She lost a staggering 180 pounds, and she did it all naturally, by eating right and exercising. These days, Annamarie’s in two modes: maintain her healthy weight and lifestyle...and share her personal tips and victories along the way. She’s the kind of blog you’ll want to follow if you want to tap into the day-by-day challenges (and empowerment) of a young woman who made it happen...and wants you to as well.
Let me start by saying, HOW INSPIRING!! I am 54 years old, turning 55 in February. I just started your Instant Pot Class. I lost 100 pounds a couple years ago, but then I got hospitalized with pneumonia and pleurisy. The strong steroids sent my sugar through the roof and damaged my pancreas, so now I have diabetes. All the new medications I’m on caused me to gain back almost 50 pounds. I have rods from my neck to my tailbone and I now have fibromyalgia and neuropathy, which makes a lot of exercises, including walking for long periods or distances, quite painful. I have found Chair Zumba classes on You Tube, which I do M, W, F, and strength exercises that I do T, R, Sa. I rest on Sundays. I too, wear my Vivofit, and find it to be an inspiration.
If you can keep up motivation and accountability without the assistance of an app or a like-minded community, the book should give you all necessary tools. While we weren’t floored by Mayo’s online offerings, the app does have one cool feature (if you can get it to work): Enable your camera to eyeball the correct size of any food item in comparison to a virtual baseball, hockey puck, set of dice.
Simply popping a few almonds in your mouth could help you shed pounds, and not just because almonds are better for you than, say, candy. A study published in the Journal of the American Heart Association found that eating 1.5 ounces of almonds a day reduced belly and leg fat. And another study of overweight adults found that people who ate ¼ cup of almonds for 6 months had a 62 percent greater reduction in weight and BMI.
Gastrointestinal disorders are another common cause of unexplained weight loss – in fact they are the most common non-cancerous cause of idiopathic weight loss. Possible gastrointestinal etiologies of unexplained weight loss include: celiac disease, peptic ulcer disease, inflammatory bowel disease (crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis), pancreatitis, gastritis, diarrhea and many other GI conditions.
Whole foods include fruits, vegetables, beans, nuts, seeds, whole grains, eggs, seafood, chicken and so on. Food philosophies may differ around which of these foods to emphasize, but that’s okay, since the evidence shows that there isn’t a single best way to lose weight. The goal is to select an approach that feels sustainable to you. If you can easily live without pasta, perhaps a low-carb method centered around veggies and quality proteins, like seafood, chicken, and lean beef would be a good fit. Vegans and vegetarians can lose weight by choosing fruits, vegetables, whole grains and plant proteins. Nut lovers may do well shedding pounds with a Mediterranean-style menu. Whatever diet appeals to your appetite and way of life, focusing on whole foods is something that all plans promote.

Scientists have revealed some of the strongest evidence yet that Covid-19 can harm our brains – particularly in areas linked to smell and memory.
But they caution that more investigation is needed to understand whether the clear pattern they found among the hundreds of UK people they studied did indeed mean long-term damage.
In one of the largest studies of its kind to date, and published today in prestigious scientific journal Nature, a team of researchers led by Oxford University's Professor Gwenaëlle Douaud analysed changes in the brains of 785 participants in the UK Biobank.People in the study had two brain scans around 38 months apart, and also underwent cognitive tests.
A total 401 participants tested positive with mostly-mild Covid-19 infection between their two scans, while the remaining 384 non-infected people were used as age and sex-matched controls for the study.
When the researchers compared those two groups over time, they found "significant, deleterious" long-term effects among those people infected with the virus: notably a reduction in grey matter thickness in regions associated with smell and memory of events.
They also observed tissue damage in regions linked to smell, while post-infected people showed larger cognitive decline than controls between scans.
"On average, the participants who were infected with Sars-CoV-2 also showed greater cognitive decline between their two scans, associated with the atrophy of a brain region known as the cerebellum, which is linked to cognition," the researchers said in a press statement.
"The findings may indicate the degenerative spread of Covid-19, either via smelling pathways, inflammation of the nervous system or a lack of sensory input owing to a loss of smell."
Importantly, the documented effects were still seen after excluding the 15 people who had been hospitalised with Covid-19 – implying even mild illness may have consequences for the brain.
University of Auckland neuroscientist Professor Maurice Curtis said the shrinkage or loss of brain volume shown in the study was "significant" – exceeding a six per cent difference on average.
"Furthermore, those who demonstrated this shrinkage, performed significantly worse on executive function, visual searching and mental flexibility tests," he said.
"We know that loss of the sense of smell very early on in Covid-19 is a key sign of infection and some people never get their sense of smell back.The smell pathway and the memory pathway in the brain are connected and these are the same pathways affected in some dementias, including Alzheimer's disease."
He also pointed out the study authors' conclusion that Covid-19 caused the shrinkage - whereas being infected with the seasonal flu didn't result in such an effect.
"This study demonstrates that there is a long-term consequence to getting Covid-19 and it highlights the importance of taking all measures possible to reduce Covid-19's impact on the body and especially the brain."
Another Kiwi brain expert, Dr Indranil Basak of Otago University's Neurodegenerative and Lysosomal Diseases Laboratory, said the study findings were "very interesting, but worrying as well".
His own research team was exploring what happened to our brains - at a molecular and cellular level – when it was exposed to the virus.
"The results from our experiments will help us understand what is happening inside the cells, which could be leading to the changes in the brain that are highlighted in this study," he said.
"Our preliminary data shows some infection in brain cells, including neurons. However, we still don't know if the virus can enter these cells after crossing the blood-brain barrier, or if the symptoms we're seeing inside the cells are because of some other reason."
"We still don't know how to treat this, because no one has looked at it yet. But we do know that the virus directly, or indirectly, can affect the human brain."

It is believed that Native Americans shared the berries with the starving Pilgrims in Massachusetts and this may explain part of it's appearance on our Thanksgiving table.
Many folks are familiar with the use of cranberries as a treatment for urinary tract infections. A recent study, published this year, 2009, in the Scandinavian Journal of Nephrology and Urology, found that "daily consumption of concentrated cranberry juice can significantly prevent the recurrence of symptomatic UTIs in children." It is important to note that this would be 100% cranberry juice with no added sugar, not cranberry juice cocktails which tend to be more popular.
It is unfortunate that cranberries don't play a larger role in our diet. These luscious red berries are high in fiber, a great source of vitamin C and also provide a lot of manganese and vitamin K. They are high in anthocyanins, anti-inflammatory antioxidants, and they appear to have health benefits ranging from improving cardiovascular health to improving brain function to helping fight H. pylori and E. coli bacteria in the body.
This year for Thanksgiving we're having our traditional cranberry orange sauce which everyone loves. Now that we live in Texas we're going to add a new tradition and make a cranberry salsa. I bought a large bag of cranberries and will keep the extra (they freeze really well) to use throughout the winter in cranberry muffins, cranberry scones, to use in salads, I even put some in oatmeal with maple syrup for a tangy breakfast treat.
If cranberry makes an appearance on your Thanksgiving table, try making your own sauce instead of purchasing the over-processed jellied mass they sell in cans, it's not a lot of effort and it's so much tastier.
Cranberry Orange Sauce
1 C. water
3/4 C. evaporated cane juice crystals
3 C. cranberries
1 orange chopped fine (I use a cuisinart)
generous pinch cinnamon
nutmeg (I use a nutmeg grater and shave several times so I don't have a measure for this)
bring the water and cane juice to a boil, stirring until crystals are dissolved
reduce to a simmer, add cranberries, orange, and spices
cover and simmer for 25-30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until cranberries pop
remove from heat and let cool to room temperature before serving
2 C. fresh cranberries
2 bell peppers
3 spring onions, minced
1/4 C. evaporated cane juice crystals
3/4 C. fresh cilantro, chopped
juice of one lime
generous pinch sea salt
1 t. crushed red pepper
Put cranberries and peppers into a food processor and chop well
put mixture into a bowl and add remaining ingredients
toss well and let sit at least 2 hours before serving for flavors to blend

Please join me in reflecting on our collective luck at being a part of a network and movement connected to such an amazing person as Gregg Stracks, who gave so much of himself, at such a difficult time. Let’s commit to using PCP’s Gregg Stracks Leadership Summit to reconnect with the values that brought us into primary care.
My third year of medical school cemented the passion for primary care I developed as a volunteer in a clinic for undocumented immigrants in San Francisco. Relationship building, continuity of care, and seeing the impact a primary care physician can have on a patient’s health all ignited my passion more than any angioplasty or neurosurgery ever could. But one question continued to nag me as I filled in the bubbles of my electronic residency application form and formulated my personal statement: family medicine or internal medicine?
I was cautioned that some programs were primary care tracks in name only and might have just one or two features that distinguish them from categorical programs. However, nearly all of the primary care tracks I saw appeared to offer exceptional training to prepare future physicians to not only adapt to, but also innovate in, our evolving healthcare system.


Background: Supervision of community health workers (CHWs) is considered, among others, a strategy to achieve universal healthcare globally. In South Africa, it is incorporated in the ward-based primary healthcare (PHC) outreach teams’ policy and strategy, a national health insurance policy component. Supervision of CHWs by nurses in the policy is considered a measure to facilitate PHC service provision to communities. However, CHWs experienced varying levels of supervision from nurses and other workers globally and in South Africa. Aim: This study explored and described the experiences of CHWs about supervision received from nurses at PHC facilities in Limpopo Province. Setting: Participants were drawn from seven PHC facilities in Polokwane and Lepelle-Nkumpi subdistricts of the Capricorn District. Methods: A qualitative exploratory-descriptive and contextual study design was employed. Participants were selected utilising a purposive sampling method. Semi-structured interviews were conducted to collect data. Data were analysed according to themes and their associated categories. Measures to ensure rigour and ethical principles were applied. Results: Two main themes emerged: positive supervision experienced by CHWs and supervision challenges experienced by CHWs. Conclusion: The varying experiences of CHWs about supervision from nurses emerged and reflected the need for functioning supervision mechanisms. Contribution: The experiences of CHWs indicated inconsistent delivery of supervision by nurses in PHC facilities. The findings highlighted the need for effective supervision measures that are vital for the success of the CHW supervision programme.
