The document discusses the challenges of obtaining coverage and reimbursement for clinical next generation sequencing (NGS) from both public and private health payers. It outlines the evidentiary standards payers use to evaluate new diagnostic tests, including requirements for analytic validity, clinical validity, and clinical utility. However, establishing these standards is difficult for NGS given limitations in analytical validation methods, lack of proficiency testing, and the technology's rapid advancement. Additionally, while regulatory approval for market entry requires less evidence than reimbursement decisions, demand for NGS often outpaces evidence development. The document argues more collaboration is needed between developers and payers to strengthen evidence standards and facilitate clinical integration of NGS.

Storyboard on Skin- Innovative Learning (M-pharm) 2nd sem. (Cosmetics)MuskanShingari
Ā
Skin is the largest organ of the human body, serving crucial functions that include protection, sensation, regulation, and synthesis. Structurally, it consists of three main layers: the epidermis, dermis, and hypodermis (subcutaneous layer).
1. **Epidermis**: The outermost layer primarily composed of epithelial cells called keratinocytes. It provides a protective barrier against environmental factors, pathogens, and UV radiation.
2. **Dermis**: Located beneath the epidermis, the dermis contains connective tissue, blood vessels, hair follicles, and sweat glands. It plays a vital role in supporting and nourishing the epidermis, regulating body temperature, and housing sensory receptors for touch, pressure, temperature, and pain.
3. **Hypodermis**: Also known as the subcutaneous layer, it consists of fat and connective tissue that anchors the skin to underlying structures like muscles and bones. It provides insulation, cushioning, and energy storage.
Skin performs essential functions such as regulating body temperature through sweat production and blood flow control, synthesizing vitamin D when exposed to sunlight, and serving as a sensory interface with the external environment.
Maintaining skin health is crucial for overall well-being, involving proper hygiene, hydration, protection from sun exposure, and avoiding harmful substances. Skin conditions and diseases range from minor irritations to chronic disorders, emphasizing the importance of regular care and medical attention when needed.
Allopurinol, a uric acid synthesis inhibitor acts by inhibiting Xanthine oxidase competitively as well as non- competitively, Whereas Oxypurinol is a non-competitive inhibitor of xanthine oxidase.
A congenital heart defect is a problem with the structure of the heart that a child is born with.
Some congenital heart defects in children are simple and don't need treatment. Others are more complex. The child may need several surgeries done over a period of several years.

Characterization of PDX Models in the Context of Humanized Mice
Date: Tuesday July 18, 2017 | Time: 8.30-11.30
Dr. Vinagolu K. Rajasekhar, a Senior Research Scientist at the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, has been developing
humanized patient derived xenograft (PDX) models of metastatic cancers in the institutional collaboration with Dr. John Healey,
the Chief of Orthopedics Service. Dr. Rajasekhar has also purified cancer stem cells (CSCs) from human prostate cancer
PDXs, discovered a novel set of biomarkers for the tumor driving cells, and delineated a clinically relevant functional signaling
pathway in prostate cancer (www.Genomeweb.com). This study unveils a new direction to live bio-bank patient CSC-derived
xenograft (PDXCSC) models of human tumors, which form an excellent and replenishable resource for understanding patient
personalized signaling cross-talks between the CSCs and their specific microenvironment as well as for therapeutic testing
and co-clinical trials.
