The Swedish Global Health Podcast - A Podcast about Global Health and Sustainable Development is aimed at anyone interested in knowing more about this exciting topic! It is co-produced by the Swedish Society of Medicine's Committee for Global Health and the Swedish Society of Medicine's student and junior doctor section.

Childhood trauma isn’t something you just get over as you grow up. Pediatrician Nadine Burke Harris explains that the repeated stress of abuse, neglect and parents struggling with mental health or substance abuse issues has real, tangible effects on the development of the brain. This unfolds across a lifetime, to the point where those who’ve experienced high levels of trauma are at triple the risk for heart disease and lung cancer. An impassioned plea for pediatric medicine to confront the prevention and treatment of trauma, head-on.

This lesson encourages students to begin thinking about and questioning those stereotypes. The lesson includes three activities, each of which explores a challenging but important topic related to the experience of Native Americans in Oregon. These topics touch on issues of history but are presented in the context of health because of their tremendous impact on the physical, mental, and emotional health of Native people, past and present.

The aim of this lesson is to introduce the concept of Neutralization and its application in our daily lives. Students are encouraged to construct their knowledge of Neutralization through brainstorming sessions, experiments, and mind mapping. This video lesson presents a series of stories relating to Neutralization—beginning with a story of a girl being cured from a stomach ache with the help of Neutralization. Prerequisites for this lesson are knowledge of the basic concept of Neutralization, chemical equations and the pH indicator scale. The lesson will take about 50 minutes to complete, but you may want to divide into two classes if the activities require more time.

In this presentation, we will focus on the SHOP system and ow is has affected the participant’s health. In continuation of this, we will provide an introduction, to the computer system, developed to monitor and control the participant’s nutritional composition of the food they collected in the shop.

This presentation discusses how we can improve the health of the population and how child nutrition affects this. In the childhood, many diseases, mental problems, cognitive problems and health detrimental conditions are established. Thus, it is important to focus on the children’s diet, exercise patterns, and lifestyle in order to elucidate the effects of diet on the children’s health.

The Portland Community College Health Studies Subject Area Committee redeveloped the Personal Health course with OERs as a basis for course material, which meets the Health Studies graduation requirement. The project team developed the course into 17 topic modules that cover a broad range of Personal and Public Health health topics. Each topic has a Google Slides Presentation, Instructor Resources, Student Resources, Topic Study Guides, an In-Class Activity, Discussion Questions, and any other additional OER resources available.

Define the term medical sociologyUnderstand the difference between the cultural meaning of illness, the social construction of illness, and the social construction of medical knowledge

This course examines how medicine is practiced cross-culturally, with particular emphasis on Western biomedicine. Students analyze medical practice as a cultural system, focusing on the human, as opposed to the biological, side of things. Also considered is how people in different cultures think of disease, health, body, and mind.

This lab activity allows students to indetify macroinvertebrates and determine the health of an acquatic ecosystem.

Short Description:
This study guide was developed to assist post-secondary students in learning Physics for Health II course. The course uses OpenStax College Physics free textbook. Students will use this guide to facilitate weekly learning, review and test their knowledge of key concepts introduced each week, and to examine health and biology related applications of the topics discussed in the course. Interactive activities and concepts maps will help reinforce the understanding of the concepts and to review the course concepts. Additionally, learners will have the opportunity to develop 21st century skills through resources and activities.

This resource is intended as a module for graduate students in health sciences fields such as medicine, nursing, and public health, and librarians who work in these and related fields. The assignment will briefly review the literature on the three main themes (open access, social justice, and health equity) to provide background on the topic. Following this overview, students will break into groups, and each group will be given a topic with questions to spark discussion on the subject. Questions such as "Historically, how has access to health information created benefits or barriers to users?" or "When thinking about medical research, what stakeholders are concerned about open access and why?" Each group will select a notetaker to keep track of the responses, and time will be given in class to report out and have a wider discussion with each other. The materials provided include an optional pre-reading assignment, slide deck, lesson plan, and a sample comprehension check.

Previously infectious diseases previously caused the majority of ill-health and premature death globally, but in high- and middle-income countries during the 20.th century infectious diseases – with the exception of HIV – declined. Introduction of hygiene and discovery of microbes and later vaccines an antibiotics contributed to the decline, but changing living conditions with better housing, nutrition, water and sanitation were the main drivers of infectious diseases’ decline.

This course addresses the challenges of defining a relationship between exposure to environmental chemicals and human disease. Course topics include epidemiological approaches to understanding disease causation; biostatistical methods; evaluation of human exposure to chemicals, and their internal distribution, metabolism, reactions with cellular components, and biological effects; and qualitative and quantitative health risk assessment methods used in the U.S. as bases for regulatory decision-making. Throughout the term, students consider case studies of local and national interest.

This resource is a video abstract of a research paper created by Research Square on behalf of its authors. It provides a synopsis that's easy to understand, and can be used to introduce the topics it covers to students, researchers, and the general public. The video's transcript is also provided in full, with a portion provided below for preview:

"Technology has made many everyday decisions easier to make. “What should I eat?”, “What should I watch?”, “What’s the best way to get home?” Unfortunately, many people still struggle to make tougher decisions, such as finding the best treatment option for diabetes or figuring out where the journey to personal fitness should begin. Science doesn’t always offer personalized solutions. But researchers argue that it can. Borrowing from nature’s own decision-making process, evolution, they’ve devised a method for turning scientific results into tailored solutions for patients, providers, and policy makers. This is agile science. One problem with how medical science is done today is that it’s mainly concerned with what works for the greatest number of people under average conditions. Whether that’s figuring out the best treatment for a disease or designing a new drug. It’s a logical approach, especially when working with limited resources..."
