The One Health approach aims to achieve optimal health outcomes for people, animals, and the environment through collaboration across multiple disciplines. It recognizes that human, animal, and environmental health are interconnected. The concept originated in the 19th century from physicians who studied links between human and animal diseases. Today, a One Health approach is particularly relevant for issues like food safety, zoonotic disease control, and antibiotic resistance, which require cross-sector solutions. No single group can prevent problems that arise at the human-animal-environment interface. Implementing One Health requires cooperation among professionals in public health, animal health, and related fields across local to global levels.

Presentation by Hung Nguyen-Viet, Delia Grace and Jakob Zinsstag at the International Symposium of Health Sciences (iSIHAT 2013), Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, 20-21 August 2013.
This document discusses the One Health approach, which recognizes the interconnectedness of human, animal, and environmental health. It notes that zoonotic diseases pose a large disease burden, especially in developing countries, and factors like human encroachment on wildlife habitats, intensive farming, and increased travel and trade have contributed to the emergence and spread of diseases. The One Health approach aims to promote cross-sectoral collaboration between medical, veterinary, and environmental professionals to achieve optimal health outcomes. Key organizations promoting One Health include WHO, FAO, OIE, and CDC. While India has started some One Health initiatives, more coordination is still needed between its medical and veterinary colleges to address zoonotic threats.
1) The document discusses several zoonotic diseases including West Nile virus, rabies, and brucellosis. It describes the pathogens, transmission cycles between animals and humans, clinical manifestations in humans, and national surveillance efforts.
2) For diseases like rabies and brucellosis, the national surveillance involves mandatory reporting of human cases, monitoring of infected animals, and collaboration between human and veterinary agencies.
3) One health approaches discussed include integrating epidemiological data between human and veterinary fields to more rapidly detect and respond to zoonotic outbreaks.

Global veterinary and medical perspectives on one healthJess Vergis
This document discusses the concepts of One Health and the interconnectedness of human, animal, and environmental health. It outlines how increased human population, urbanization, agricultural intensification, and encroachment into wildlife habitats have contributed to the emergence of zoonotic diseases. Over 60% of infectious diseases are zoonotic, with 71.8% originating from wildlife. The document then examines the historical foundations of comparative medicine and the development of veterinary science and its role in public health. It discusses how the One Health approach aims to address modern problems through cross-sectoral collaboration between medical, veterinary, and environmental professionals.
Antibiotic resistance is a complex public health issue that requires a One Health approach. The overuse and misuse of antibiotics in human medicine, agriculture, and the environment has contributed to the emergence and spread of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. A holistic, multisectoral response is needed that promotes prudent antibiotic use and prevents infection across human, animal, agricultural, and environmental domains.
The One Health Center aims to improve global health through an integrated approach addressing connections between human, animal, food, and environmental factors. Its mission is to assess and respond to health problems at this human-animal-environment interface through multidisciplinary and collaborative efforts. Key areas of research and intervention include improved water management, poultry immunization, disease surveillance, food safety, and combating malnutrition. A signature project will pilot interventions in these areas in Uganda to evaluate the added benefits of One Health approaches.
The document discusses the One Health concept and approach. One Health recognizes the interconnectedness of human, animal, and environmental health. It has origins in ancient times but is now defined by the One Health Initiative Task Force as collaborative efforts across disciplines to achieve optimal health for all. A One Health approach is relevant for issues like food safety, zoonotic disease control, and combating antibiotic resistance and requires communication across sectors to better address public health challenges.
The One Health approach recognizes that human health, animal health, and environmental health are interconnected. It aims to attain optimal health for people, animals, and the environment through collaboration across multiple disciplines. Key agencies like FAO, OIE, and WHO have developed strategic frameworks to foster cooperation between sectors. Case studies demonstrate how delayed or lack of coordination between human and animal health sectors increased costs and impacted control of diseases like Nipah virus. Antimicrobial resistance is another issue that requires a One Health approach.
One-Health encompasses the interconnection between human, animal, plant, and environmental health. It recognizes that the health of each component is dependent on the others. The emergence of concepts like antimicrobial resistance and zoonotic diseases demonstrate this interdependence. Universities around the world, including over two dozen globally, offer courses in One Health at the undergraduate, postgraduate, and doctoral levels. These courses aim to assess public health threats by researching disease transmission among living things and their environments. The goal is to provide a foundation for understanding diseases in the context of sustainable systems and global health. Tools used include surveillance, epidemiology, and analysis of large electronic health datasets. However, One Health is still poorly implemented and understood in
This document discusses transboundary zoonotic diseases from an Indian perspective. It begins by defining transboundary zoonotic diseases and providing some examples. It then discusses several major disease outbreaks and pandemics that have impacted India and the world, including plague, cholera, avian influenza, Nipah virus, and SARS. It notes factors that have contributed to the emergence and spread of zoonotic diseases, such as population growth, increased trade and travel, agricultural intensification, and environmental changes. The document emphasizes that India's large population, biodiversity, agricultural sector, and trade relationships make it vulnerable to zoonotic diseases and their impacts.

One Health: A Holistic Approach to Achieving Global Well-beinggreendigital
Introduction:
In an interconnected world where the boundaries between humans, and animals. and the environment blurred. One Health has emerged as a comprehensive approach to addressing complex health challenges. One Health recognizes the intricate connections between the Health of humans and animals. and ecosystems, emphasizing the need for collaborative efforts across disciplines to achieve optimal well-being for all. This article delves into the fundamental principles of It, and its historical roots. and its potential to revolutionize the way we approach global Health.
Follow us on: Pinterest
Understanding One Health:
A- Definition and Scope:
It is an integrative approach that considers the Health of humans, animals. and the environment as interdependent entities. It acknowledges that the Health of one component influences the Health of the others. and disruptions in any of these systems can have far-reaching consequences. This approach goes beyond traditional silos in health management. and embraces a holistic perspective. recognizing the intricate web of connections that shape our Health.
B- Historical Roots:
The roots of the It concept can traced back to ancient civilizations. where the interconnectedness of human and animal health acknowledged. But, the formal recognition of It as a distinct field gained momentum in the late 20th century. The emergence of zoonotic diseases transmitted between animals. and humans highlighted the need for a collaborative approach to disease prevention and control.
Key Principles of One Health:
A- Interdisciplinary Collaboration:
At the heart of It is interdisciplinary collaboration. This principle involves breaking down the traditional barriers between medical, veterinary. and environmental sciences. Professionals from various fields work together to understand the complex dynamics of Health. and to develop effective strategies for prevention, surveillance, and response to emerging threats.
B- Zoonotic Disease Surveillance:
Given the increasing frequency of zoonotic disease outbreaks. It emphasizes surveillance and early detection. Monitoring diseases at the human-animal-environment interface is crucial for identifying potential threats before. they escalate into global pandemics. This proactive approach involves close collaboration between public health agencies. veterinary services, and environmental monitoring bodies.
C- Environmental Stewardship:
It recognizes the impact of environmental degradation on Health. Climate change, deforestation, and pollution can exacerbate the spread of diseases. affect water and food sources, and compromise the well-being of ecosystems. Integrating environmental stewardship into health policies is essential for safeguarding the Health of present and future generations.
Examples of One Health in Action:
A- Pandemic Preparedness:
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has underscored the importance of a It approach. The virus, believed to have originated in bats.
One health and its importance; notes - Dr. ROBIN.pptxROBIN VAVACHAN
The document discusses One Health and the interconnectedness of human, animal, and environmental health. It notes that human destruction of biodiversity and disruption of ecosystems can create conditions for diseases like COVID-19 to emerge. When humans disturb natural habitats and kill or cage wild animals, it can release viruses from their natural hosts, with humans becoming the new host. The document advocates for a multisectoral One Health approach involving coordination across human health, animal health, and environmental sectors to address health threats at the human-animal interface.
The Manhattan Principles were developed at a 2004 meeting that brought together health experts to discuss the spread of diseases between humans, domestic animals, and wildlife. The principles call for a holistic approach that recognizes the links between human, animal, and ecosystem health. They urge increased cooperation across disciplines and sectors, as well as reducing wildlife trade, integrating conservation in disease prevention, and investing in global health infrastructure and education.

Stienstra - Cooperation in public health good for global economyStef Stienstra
The document discusses the benefits of international cooperation in public health to combat infectious diseases in developing countries. It notes that such cooperation is good for the global economy by preventing pandemics and their economic impacts. It provides examples of recent public health crises like Ebola and arguments that more investment in pandemic preparedness through activities like strengthening health systems and coordinating response capabilities can significantly reduce risks to human lives and livelihoods at a relatively low cost compared to reacting to outbreaks. Military resources may also provide valuable support to public health efforts through capabilities in areas like logistics, communications, and mobile medical facilities.
World Health Day 2015 focused on food safety. The document discusses how foodborne diseases kill millions annually and can cause long-term health problems. It outlines trends like globalization that increase food safety risks and how a long, complex global food chain requires collaboration across sectors to ensure safety. Key actions include strengthening surveillance systems, applying a holistic risk-based approach to food production and distribution, and encouraging both governments and consumers to prioritize safe food.
CGIAR initiative on One Health: Protecting human health through a One Health ...ILRI
This initiative aims to improve human, animal, and environmental health through a One Health approach. It will focus on reducing antimicrobial resistance, improving food and water safety, and managing zoonotic diseases. The initiative will generate evidence on health risks, evaluate the impacts of technologies and approaches, and integrate innovations into policies and programs. It will work in contexts involving intensifying food systems, informal food systems, and the wildlife-livestock-human interface in low and middle-income countries.
The document discusses biodiversity and health, providing background context and identifying key issues. It notes that while wildlife is often described as a major source of emerging diseases, the evidence does not strongly support this. Biodiversity suffers from various anthropogenic stressors that can impact health. Maintaining biodiversity through urban greening can reduce disease vector risks if done appropriately. Transdisciplinary approaches are needed to understand the links between biodiversity, health, and sustainable development. Recent reviews find broad agreement on issues but some contradictions regarding wildlife and disease emergence.

Emerging infectious diseases in China: the One Health approach Harm Kiezebrink
This report on the UN China One Health event (June 2011) is focusing on diseases at the human-animal-interface. ‘One Health’ and ‘Ecohealth’ are ways of thinking about, approaching and investigating diseases that go beyond the traditional pathogen-centric approach.
By examining the complex issues that result in disease emergence and transmission and this information can be used to implement better disease control and preventive measures.
One of the conclusions is that the rapid development in Asia means that the complex effects of changes to ecosystems not always have been discussed or examined in a way that takes account of the positive and negative effects of development.
For highly pathogenic avian influenza it has been important to understand how the disease emerged and spread so that appropriate measures could be implemented.
This document discusses biodiversity and its relationship to health. It defines biodiversity as the variability among living organisms, including diversity within and between species and ecosystems. It describes how biodiversity is measured and indicators used to assess biodiversity conditions. The document outlines how ecosystems function and threats to biodiversity like habitat loss. Loss of biodiversity can consequences like reduced ecosystem productivity. Maintaining biodiversity is crucial for supporting human well-being and development. Environmental health, ecological health, and ecosystem health are discussed in relation to human health. Factors influencing health like genetics, environment, and lifestyle are summarized. The impacts of technology, climate change, and pollutants on biodiversity and health are also covered.

Congestive Heart failure is caused by low cardiac output and high sympathetic discharge. Diuretics reduce preload, ACE inhibitors lower afterload, beta blockers reduce sympathetic activity, and digitalis has inotropic effects. Newer medications target vasodilation and myosin activation to improve heart efficiency while lowering energy requirements. Combination therapy, following an assessment of cardiac function and volume status, is the most effective strategy to heart failure care.

Causes:
Tumor Evolution:
Genetic and epigenetic changes during tumor progression can lead to alterations in receptor status.
Treatment Effects:
Therapies, especially endocrine and targeted therapies, can selectively pressure tumor cells, causing shifts in receptor expression.
Heterogeneity:
Inherent heterogeneity within the tumor can result in subpopulations of cells with different receptor statuses.
Impact on Treatment:
Therapeutic Resistance:
Loss of ERα or PgR can lead to resistance to endocrine therapies.
HER2 discordance affects the efficacy of HER2-targeted treatments.
Treatment Adjustment:
Regular reassessment of receptor status may be necessary to adjust treatment strategies appropriately.
Clinical Implications:
Prognosis:
Receptor discordance is often associated with a poorer prognosis.
Biopsies:
Obtaining biopsies from metastatic sites is crucial for accurate receptor status assessment and effective treatment planning.
Monitoring:
Continuous monitoring of receptor status throughout the disease course can guide personalized therapy adjustments.
Understanding and managing receptor discordance is essential for optimizing treatment outcomes and improving the prognosis for breast cancer patients.
Fexofenadine is sold under the brand name Allegra.
It is a selective peripheral H1 blocker. It is classified as a second-generation antihistamine because it is less able to pass the blood–brain barrier and causes lesser sedation, as compared to first-generation antihistamines.
It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines. Fexofenadine has been manufactured in generic form since 2011.
Storyboard on Acne-Innovative Learning-M. pharm. (2nd sem.) CosmeticsMuskanShingari
Acne is a common skin condition that occurs when hair follicles become clogged with oil and dead skin cells. It typically manifests as pimples, blackheads, or whiteheads, often on the face, chest, shoulders, or back. Acne can range from mild to severe and may cause emotional distress and scarring in some cases.
**Causes:**
1. **Excess Oil Production:** Hormonal changes during adolescence or certain times in adulthood can increase sebum (oil) production, leading to clogged pores.
2. **Clogged Pores:** When dead skin cells and oil block hair follicles, bacteria (usually Propionibacterium acnes) can thrive, causing inflammation and acne lesions.
3. **Hormonal Factors:** Fluctuations in hormone levels, such as during puberty, menstrual cycles, pregnancy, or certain medical conditions, can contribute to acne.
4. **Genetics:** A family history of acne can increase the likelihood of developing the condition.
**Types of Acne:**
- **Whiteheads:** Closed plugged pores.
- **Blackheads:** Open plugged pores with a dark surface.
- **Papules:** Small red, tender bumps.
- **Pustules:** Pimples with pus at their tips.
- **Nodules:** Large, solid, painful lumps beneath the surface.
- **Cysts:** Painful, pus-filled lumps beneath the surface that can cause scarring.
**Treatment:**
Treatment depends on the severity and type of acne but may include:
- **Topical Treatments:** Such as benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid, or retinoids to reduce bacteria and unclog pores.
- **Oral Medications:** Antibiotics or oral contraceptives for hormonal acne.
- **Procedures:** Such as chemical peels, extraction of comedones, or light therapy for more severe cases.
**Prevention and Management:**
- **Cleanse:** Regularly wash skin with a gentle cleanser.
- **Moisturize:** Use non-comedogenic moisturizers to keep skin hydrated without clogging pores.
- **Avoid Irritants:** Such as harsh cosmetics or excessive scrubbing.
- **Sun Protection:** Use sunscreen to prevent exacerbation of acne scars and inflammation.
Acne treatment can take time, and consistency in skincare routines and treatments is crucial. Consulting a dermatologist can help tailor a treatment plan that suits individual needs and reduces the risk of scarring or long-term skin damage.
Part III - Cumulative Grief: Learning how to honor the many losses that occur...bkling
Cumulative grief, also known as compounded grief, is grief that occurs more than once in a brief period of time. As a person with cancer, a caregiver or professional in this world, we are often met with confronting grief on a frequent basis. Learn about cumulative grief and ways to cope with it. We will also explore methods to heal from this challenging experience.
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.

“we must act now to strengthen the global health and
health security system to be better prepared for future
pandemics and to tackle long standing global health
threats, including Antimicrobial Resistance”
“In an interconnected world global health and health security threats respect no borders”
“We place emphasis on strengthening a “One Health”
approach across all aspects of pandemic prevention
and preparedness, recognising critical links between
human and animal health and the environment”
3. What is ‘One Health’?
• An approach that recognises that human and animal health are interdependent and bound to the
health of the ecosystems in which they exist
Why is ‘One Health’ becoming more important?
• Human population growth; expansion into new areas bring people into close contact with wild and
domestic animals
• Changes in climate and land use (eg deforestation, urbanisation, intensification of farming)
disrupts habitats and provides new chances for disease transmission
• International travel and trade means diseases can spread quickly around the globe
What are common ‘One Health’ issues?
• Zoonotic diseases (including those with pandemic potential)
• Antimicrobial resistance
• Food safety
• Food security
• Vector-borne diseases
• Environmental contamination/pollution
• Any other health issue that goes across the human-animal-environment interface
