The document discusses key concepts about health, including definitions of health by the WHO, the dimensions of health, and the relative and dynamic nature of health. It examines perceptions of health and how they are socially constructed. The document also analyzes the determinants of health, including individual factors like genetics and knowledge, as well as sociocultural factors, socioeconomic factors, and environmental factors. It discusses how these determinants interact and influence health, and how their level of influence changes over the course of one's life.
Health psychology examines how biological, psychological, social, and cultural factors influence physical health and illness. It uses a biopsychosocial model to understand health and disease as resulting from interactions among these factors. The field aims to understand health behaviors, prevent illness through education, investigate the psychological effects of disease, and critically analyze health policies to address inequities. Health psychologists conduct research using various study designs and variables to achieve these objectives.
This document discusses the dimensions and determinants of health. It begins by defining determinants of health as the various social, economic, behavioral, environmental, and healthcare-related factors that influence health outcomes. It then lists six dimensions of health according to a 1976 wellness model: physical, emotional, intellectual, spiritual, occupational, and social/cultural. The document goes on to provide examples and evidence of various social and physical determinants of health, including housing, transportation, food/agriculture, waste, energy, industry, and others. It emphasizes that individual health is determined more by circumstances and environment rather than individual choices.

Introduction
• Why are some individual Health Behaviors
easier to change than others?

• What stages so Individuals go through in making
behavioral change?
• How can behaviors within a group be changed?
• How can we combine individual, group, and
social efforts to implement behavioral change?
Social Influence on Health
You travel to a country in Asia and find that
the culture affects most parts of life including
health. From the food they eat and their method
of cooking to their attitudes toward medical care
and their beliefs about the cause of disease and
the ability to alter it through public health and
medical interventions, this country is profoundly
different from the United States.
Social Influence on Health
You are trying to help your spouse quit smoking
cigarettes and your kids from starting. You know that
gentle encouragement and support on a one-to-one
basis are essential but are often not enough since
cigarettes cause addiction that produces withdrawal
and long term cravings. Like most addictions, quitting
requires a combination of individual motivation,
support from family and friends, and sometimes use
of medications. But you wonder: do warning labels
on cigarettes, taxes on cigarettes, and no smoking
zones in public places make any difference?
Social Influence on Health
Your efforts to convince teenagers to avoid
smoking or at least stop smoking focuses on
giving them the facts about how cigarettes cause
lung cancer, throat cancer, and serious heart
disease.
You are frustrated at how little impact you have
had and are surprised that others are more
successful by focusing on immediate impacts
such as stained teeth and bad breadth as well as
the loss of control that goes along with addiction
to nicotine.
Behavioral/Environmental Influences
on Health
Suppose that every day on your way to work,
you pass the same young homeless man on the
same corner. You notice that over the past few
weeks he has been coughing, and you figure he
must have a cold.
Today when you walk by his usual place on the
corner, he is not there, but someone has left a sign
that reads, “Rest in peace, Ramón.” You are
surprised, especially because he was so young..
This document provides an overview of a lesson on public health. It begins with learning objectives that cover defining health and wellness, describing health care and public health components, tracing the history of public health in the Philippines, and appreciating the importance of public health. It then covers topics like the definitions of health, wellness, public health, and their components. It discusses factors that impact health and describes indicators used to measure public health. It outlines the history and development of public health in the Philippines. In closing, it emphasizes the ongoing importance of public health programs and their role in improving population health.
Dr. Anuj Singh discusses the various determinants of health, which are factors that influence health outcomes. The main determinants are biological, environmental, lifestyle, socio-economic conditions, health services, aging population, and gender. Biological determinants refer to genetic factors. Environmental determinants include housing, water, and psychosocial stress. Lifestyle factors like smoking and alcohol consumption impact health. Socio-economic conditions such as education level, economic status, and occupation also determine health. Adequate health services, the aging population, and gender are other important determinants. Overall, Dr. Singh emphasizes that health has multiple influencing factors and is not simply the absence of disease.
Gender analysis in health examines how biological, social, cultural, and economic factors influence differences in health outcomes and access to healthcare between males, females, and other gender identities. Understanding these differences allows for targeted interventions to address gender-based health disparities and promote equity. Key factors influencing gender in health include social norms, socioeconomic status, discrimination, violence, and healthcare system biases. Conducting gender analysis can improve health seeking behaviors, outcomes, access, promotion, workforce diversity, and health policy.
- The prevalence of infectious diseases has declined due to medical innovations and public health standards, while preventable disorders like heart disease and cancer have increased. Nearly half of Canadian deaths are caused by modifiable health behaviors like smoking, poor diet, and inactivity.
- Health behaviors are behaviors that enhance or maintain health, like established habits formed in childhood around ages 11-12. Healthy behaviors reduce lifestyle-related illness and death while improving quality of life.
- Many factors influence health behaviors, including demographics, socioeconomics, personal values, social influences, health goals, perceived symptoms, and access to healthcare. Targeting behaviors in adolescence can have lasting effects as those habits often determine future health outcomes.
Behavioral science is relevant to health and medicine in several ways:
1. It addresses factors like patient behavior, physician-patient interactions, and social/cultural issues that influence health and healthcare delivery.
2. Concepts from psychology, sociology, and anthropology can provide insights into decision-making processes and communication strategies related to health.
3. Behavioral and social factors are important to consider in assessing and treating illnesses, and in planning healthcare services that meet patients' needs.
Health has many definitions including the absence of disease, a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being, and the ability to cope with daily life. It is influenced by internal factors like genetics, age, and psychological state as well as external factors in the environment, family/culture, socioeconomic status, and access to healthcare. Overall health is a complex interaction between the individual and their surroundings.
Health is a multifactorial
The factors which determine the health of an individual are many, some are inside the body ( genetic/ intrinsic) and some are outside the body ( environmental factors)
The interaction of these factors may either promote or deteriorate the health.
The important determinants of health are,
Chapter 1 Introduction to Health Psychology.pdfAyesha Yaqoob
This document provides an introduction and overview of key concepts in health psychology. It discusses the goals of studying health from multiple perspectives and integrating different approaches. Key terms are defined, including health psychology, health, disease, and illness. The document outlines the historical development of health psychology as a field and how it began to integrate biological, behavioral, and social factors influencing health. Major causes of death are discussed, noting the increasing role of lifestyle behaviors. Theories of attribution, health locus of control, and unrealistic optimism related to health beliefs and behaviors are also introduced. Culture is discussed as an important macro-level influence on concepts of health and disease.
This document discusses the various determinants of health, which include biological, behavioral, socioeconomic, and environmental factors. The biological determinants include genetics and inherent traits. Behavioral determinants relate to lifestyle habits. Socioeconomic determinants comprise education, occupation, income, and the political system. Environmental determinants refer to both internal and external surroundings. Maintaining good hygiene, sanitation, housing, and access to healthcare services also influences health outcomes. A balanced consideration of all these determinants is necessary to understand health issues and promote population well-being.

Women face unique health challenges compared to men. Key factors that influence women's health include insufficient attention to sex differences in disease, greater burden from conditions like COPD and HIV/AIDS, and higher risk of visual impairment and difficulties quitting smoking. Women also face greater risks of early marriage, adolescent motherhood, pregnancy complications, and violence. Improving women's health requires addressing gaps in medical training, lack of primary care access, sex-based bias, inadequate clinical guidelines, focus on social determinants, and shortages in women's health specialists. Economic inequities also profoundly impact women's health outcomes.

Understanding Atherosclerosis Causes, Symptoms, Complications, and Preventionrealmbeats0
Definition: Atherosclerosis is a condition characterized by the buildup of plaques, which are made up of fat, cholesterol, calcium, and other substances, in the walls of arteries. Over time, these plaques harden and narrow the arteries, restricting blood flow.
Importance: This condition is a major contributor to cardiovascular diseases, including coronary artery disease, carotid artery disease, and peripheral artery disease. Understanding atherosclerosis is crucial for preventing these serious health issues.
Overview: We will cover the aims and objectives of this presentation, delve into the signs and symptoms of atherosclerosis, discuss its complications, and explore preventive measures and lifestyle changes that can mitigate risk.
Aim: To provide a detailed understanding of atherosclerosis, encompassing its pathophysiology, risk factors, clinical manifestations, and strategies for prevention and management.
Purpose: The primary purpose of this presentation is to raise awareness about atherosclerosis, highlight its impact on public health, and educate individuals on how they can reduce their risk through lifestyle changes and medical interventions.
Educational Goals:
Explain the pathophysiology of atherosclerosis, including the processes of plaque formation and arterial hardening.
Identify the risk factors associated with atherosclerosis, such as high cholesterol, hypertension, smoking, diabetes, and sedentary lifestyle.
Discuss the clinical signs and symptoms that may indicate the presence of atherosclerosis.
Highlight the potential complications arising from untreated atherosclerosis, including heart attack, stroke, and peripheral artery disease.
Provide practical advice on preventive measures, including dietary recommendations, exercise guidelines, and the importance of regular medical check-ups.
Breast cancer :Receptor (ER/PR/HER2 NEU) Discordance.pptxDr. Sumit KUMAR
Receptor Discordance in Breast Carcinoma During the Course of Life
Definition:
Receptor discordance refers to changes in the status of hormone receptors (estrogen receptor ERα, progesterone receptor PgR, and HER2) in breast cancer tumors over time or between primary and metastatic sites.
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.
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.
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.

CLASSIFICATION OF H1 ANTIHISTAMINICS-
FIRST GENERATION ANTIHISTAMINICS-
1)HIGHLY SEDATIVE-DIPHENHYDRAMINE,DIMENHYDRINATE,PROMETHAZINE,HYDROXYZINE 2)MODERATELY SEDATIVE- PHENARIMINE,CYPROHEPTADINE, MECLIZINE,CINNARIZINE
3)MILD SEDATIVE-CHLORPHENIRAMINE,DEXCHLORPHENIRAMINE
TRIPROLIDINE,CLEMASTINE
SECOND GENERATION ANTIHISTAMINICS-FEXOFENADINE,
LORATADINE,DESLORATADINE,CETIRIZINE,LEVOCETIRIZINE,
AZELASTINE,MIZOLASTINE,EBASTINE,RUPATADINE. Mechanism of action of 2nd generation antihistaminics-
These drugs competitively antagonize actions of
histamine at the H1 receptors.
Pharmacological actions-
Antagonism of histamine-The H1 antagonists effectively block histamine induced bronchoconstriction, contraction of intestinal and other smooth muscle and triple response especially wheal, flare and itch. Constriction of larger blood vessel by histamine is also antagonized.
2) Antiallergic actions-Many manifestations of immediate hypersensitivity (type I reactions)are suppressed. Urticaria, itching and angioedema are well controlled.3) CNS action-The older antihistamines produce variable degree of CNS depression.But in case of 2nd gen antihistaminics there is less CNS depressant property as these cross BBB to significantly lesser extent.
4) Anticholinergic action- many H1 blockers
in addition antagonize muscarinic actions of ACh. BUT IN 2ND gen histaminics there is Higher H1 selectivitiy : no anticholinergic side effects

Public Health Lecture 4 Social Sciences and Public Health
1. Foundations of
Public Health
Lecture 4 - Sociology,
Anthropology and Psychology
as Applied to Public Health
Phua Kai Lit, PhD (Johns Hopkins)
Retired public health professor
(Monash University Malaysia School
of Medicine and Health Sciences)
2. Lecture Objectives
Medical Sociology, Medical Anthropology and
Health Psychology
Social and behavioural factors that affect health
Ethnicity and health, culture-bound illnesses
Social class and health
Gender and health
Location and health
Religiosity and health
Personality type and health
Nutrition, exercise, stress, smoking, drinking,
substance abuse, unsafe sex, dangerous driving
The life cycle and psycho-social changes
3. Medical Sociology
• A better name would be “Sociology of Health and
Illness”
• Sociological way of thinking applied to medicine
and public health problems
• That is, consider how the larger society shapes the
values and behaviour of an individual, including
health-related behaviour such as abstinence from
drinking alcohol, sexuality, diet (e.g. vegetarianism)
etc.
• Think about how the larger society reduces the life
chances of some, to the detriment of their health
• Relate sociological variables to health
4. Sociological Variables and
Health
Ethnicity (“race”) - health of ethnic minorities
Social class - link between poverty and poor health
Gender - sexism, sex-roles and health.
Discrimination on the basis of gender can result in
poor mental health, poor nutrition, inability to get
good jobs, can result in sex-selective abortion etc
Location (rural, urban, rich country, poor country).
Health of rural people tend to be poorer than urban
people. Poor countries have less resources to
spend on health care services than rich countries.
5. Sociological Variables and
Health
Religiosity - some religions forbid the drinking of
alcohol. So, we can expect alcohol-related health
problems to be less in societies where such
religions are influential.
Education - better-educated people often have
healthier lifestyles
Sexual orientation and sexual behaviour. People
who have multiple sex partners are at higher risk of
contracting a sexually-transmitted infection (STI)
6. Medical Anthropology
Anthropologists spend a lot of time studying the
culture of different societies, including their
biomedical systems.
Culture can mean material culture (tangible items
such as tools - e.g. medical drugs and devices) and
non-material culture (values, beliefs, norms etc)
Non-western systems of healing include Chinese
traditional medicine, Ayurvedic traditional medicine
and so on. It should be noted that millions of people
continue to seek care from traditional healers.
Medical anthropologists have identified “culture-
bound syndromes” e.g. anorexia nervosa in rich
countries (not found in poor countries where people
may not have enough to eat!), amok in Malaysia,
etc. Mental illness often expressed differently in
different cultures.
7. Health Psychology
Personality and health - Some people are less able
to handle stress (lower coping ability) than others.
This can affect their mental as well as physical
health.
Personality disorders - people with personality
disorders tend to have more difficulty with inter-
personal relationships, have more problems in
school or at work etc. They are also more likely to
end up being socially-isolated in old age, to the
detriment of their health and well-being.
8. Individual Behaviour and Health
Health of an individual can be affected by nutrition
(diet of the person), lack of exercise, stressful
events, smoking, drinking, substance abuse,
unsafe sex, dangerous driving etc.
Some individuals have poor diets (whether due to
ignorance or lack of concern) - this can result in
diabetes, cardio-vascular disease etc later on in life
Lack of exercise (sometimes due to the job one is
doing such as being a bus driver) can affect health
Stressful events can affect mental health e.g. death
of spouse, divorce, academic failure, job trouble etc
Substance abuse (smoking, excessive drinking,
illicit drugs), unprotected sex (no condom use) with
multiple sex partners, dangerous driving, not using
seat belts or motorcycle helmets can result in
serious injury and long term health problems
9. Life course: this refers to the life cycle of an individual
- from birth to infancy, childhood, adolescence, young
adulthood, middle adulthood, old age and finally,
death.
Health challeges and needs may differ at different
stages in the life course e.g. during adolescence, the
biggest threats to health are behaviour related i.e.
suicide and injuries (motor vehicle “accidents”,
homicide in the case of young African-American
males).
In old age, there would be physical decline and
greater need for health services (including long term
care) while income may have reduced after
