Title: Integration of artificial intelligence and nutrigenomics in clinical care has implications for large scale population health

Abstract:

As Big Data becomes available concerning nutrition from studies of nutrigenomics and metabolomics the complexity of programs needed to analyze this information necessitates what is considered AI. In addition to data analysis, AI can assist at the point of care by helping doctors and patients more actively track changes in health status. In both applications, the level of complexity achieved in programming falls under the umbrella of Machine Learning [ML] which is a specific subtype of AI. In this review, we will focus on emerging applications of ML in clinical nutrition and the prospective use of this technology in healthcare management. ML programs are already being widely used in ordinary practice, meanwhile, analysis of nutrigenomics and the interactome is revealing a previously unknown influence of nutrition’s effects. We will discuss the implication of novel insights into nutrition in healthcare and review a few examples of current clinical practices utilizing ML technology. Considering the emerging focus on the relation of genomics in modulating individual nutritional status, we will propose a future research direction to streamline the translation of study data to clinical adjuncts. Detailed reasoning is provided for innovative objectives that support the use of nutritional intervention as a mode of therapy that might impact the progression of many diseases such as neurodegenerative disorders. Overall this represents a paradigm shift in the healthcare system that can have broad global implications.

Title: virus is living and it’s treatment

Abstract:

A viral test is done to find  infection causing  viruses .Viruses grow only in living cells . Viruses causes disease by destroying or damaging the cells they infect , damaging the body’s immune system Changing the genetic material (DNA) of the cells they infect or causing inflammation that can damage an organ . Viruses cause many types of diseases,  such as human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) ,cold sores, chicken pox , measles , flu and some types of cancer

Title: Connaissances, attitudes et pratiques des femmes en âge de procréer du District de Santé de la Mifi sur la prévention du cancer du col de l’utérus, Cameroun

Abstract:

This study aims to describe knowledge, attitudes and practices of women of childbearing age with regards to cervical cancer preventive measures. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional descriptive study among women of childbearing age. Data were collected using a face to face questionnaire and were analyzed using Epi Info 7.1.3.3 software calculating a confidence interval of 95%. Results: Our study highligts that 78.11%(464/594) of women were aware of the existence of cervical cancer. However 58.59% and 60.27% of women were not aware of any risk factor and preventive measure respectively. Only 7% of these women were aware of the existence of vaccine. With regard to their attitude, 31.31% (186/594) of women had already wished for information on cervical cancer preventive measures, 26.94% (160/594) had taken the initiative to undergo screening test and only 7.41% (44/594) had undergone screening test. Difficulty most commonly mentioned was the lack of information (69.82%) while the most commonly cited awareness-raising tools were the media (75.9%). Conclusion: Despite the good knowledge on the existence of cervical cancer, the level of information about risk factors and preventive measures remains weak. Awareness program should be focused on risk factors, preventive measures and on the implementation of screening campaigns. These informations can be used to improve planning approach to prevention.
