Abstract

Title : Preventive Medecine in General Practice of Adults – summary of preventive guidelines in Belgium.
Method : Review of literature to analyze what makes prevention so difficult to be applied in day-to-day practice, what can done to help GP integrate preventive activity in the counceling.
Realisation of a brief summary of the preventive guidelines for GP practice in Belgium.
Conclusion : the Belgian population does not have access to preventive medicine like it should. Heath car promotion should be much more effective so that the prevention in primary care have a real impact on global health Objectif : montrer l’importance et l’urgence de la médecine préventive dans la pratique quotidienne en médecine générale. Méthode : à travers une revue de la littérature, rappel des moyens mis à disposition du généraliste pour améliorer ces actions préventives et surmonter les obstacles qui se présentent. Puis réalisation d’un bref recueil des principales recommandations en médecine préventive disponibles en Belgique pour le médecin généralistes. Conclusions : la population belge ne bénéficie pas assez largement des acquis de santé publiques et de promotion de la santé : les couvertures vaccinales restent insuffisantes, le dépistage du cancer est insuffisamment implanté, et la lutte contre le tabagisme et l’alcoolisme doivent être menées avec plus de rigueur. D’autre part, l’accessibilité aux soins de santé varie suivant es couches sociales. En effet, les actions de prévention sont moins accessibles aux plus démunis. Or il faudrait s’assurer de faire bénéficier systématiquement de tout acte préventif, la population fragilisée qui en a le plus besoin

Abstract

Health problems such as hypertension, tendency to diabetes, obesity, blood lipids, vascular disease, bone health, behaviour and learning and longevity may be ‘imprinted’ during early life. This process is defined as ‘programming’ whereby a nutritional stimulus operating at a critical, sensitive period of pre and postnatal life imprints permanent effects on the structure, physiology and metabolism. For this reason, academics and industry set-up the EC supported Scientific Workshop -Early Nutrition and its Later Consequences: New Opportunities. The prime objective of the Workshop was to generate a sound exchange of the latest scientific developments within the field of early nutrition to look for opportunities for new preventive health concepts. Further, a closer look was taken at the development of food applications which could provide (future) mothers and infants with improved nutrition that will ultimately lead to better future health. The Workshop was organised by the Dept. of Pediatrics, University of Munich, Germany in collaboration with the Danone Institutes and the Infant Nutrition Cluster, a collaboration of three large research projects funded by the EU.

Abstract

This book provides a systematic review of the literature and a comprehensive evaluation of the health hazards of transport-related air pollution. The review addresses: factors determining emissions, the contribution of traffic to pollution levels, human exposure and the results of epidemiological and toxicological studies to identify and measure the health effects. This book is designed for two main audiences: policy-makers and experts in transport-related air pollution and public health. Accordingly, it offers both summary information for the former and full discussion, primarily for the latt

Abstract

"Worldwide, the popularity of recreational activities, which involve contact with water, is continuing to grow. Moreover, ease of travel and change in human behavior has altered the use of water for recreational purposes. Users should be aware that recreational exposures to pathogens may result in disease. Susceptible populations including people with reduced immune function (e.g. resulting from disease (cancer, HIV) genetic susceptibility, age, etc.) or lack of immunity to locally endemic diseases (e.g. tourists) may be at higher risk of contracting illnesses. In most cases the primary disease symptoms associated with recreational water contact are acute, such as diarrhea and respiratory infections. Although less frequently reported, more serious and potentially fatal disease is a risk to recreational users of water especially in certain susceptible populations. In addition to diseases which have severe primary outcomes (e.g. primary amoebic meningoencephalitis, typhoid, leptospirosis) a number of infections may lead to sequelae with serious consequences including renal disease (from E. coli O157:H7 for example) cardiac and nutritional disorders. This is the first book to provide a comprehensive review and analysis of potential severe disease outcomes, including acute effects and sequelae associated with recreational water activities. This book will be useful to all those concerned with recreational water quality, including environmental and public health professionals, local authorities, user groups, and tourists. Water Recreation and Disease sets out to identify the more severe waterborne diseases and their sequelae, which may be acquired while undertaking water-based recreation in marine, freshwater, spas/whirlpools and swimming pools. The review systematically brings information together on the ecology and health aspects of a variety of pathogens where cases attributed to recreational use of water have been documented. This is the only available guide to bring together information on the more severe waterborne diseases to assist decision-making in recreational water management." -- Provided by publisher.
