What is Infant Mortality?

The health of an infant at birth is typically assessed by medical professionals immediately following delivery. These measures of infant health provide researchers with the ability to compare newborn health with a variety of educational, social, and health data. Researchers have measured this concept in more than one way, occasionally using different terminology to describe information that was gathered in a similar manner.
Over 22,000 infants died in the United States in 2017. The five leading causes of infant death in 2017 were:

• Birth defects.
• Preterm birth and low birth weight.
• Maternal pregnancy complications.
• Sudden infant death syndrome.
• Injuries 

The infant mortality rate is an age-specific ratio used by epidemiologists, demographers, physicians, and social scientists to better understand the extent and causes of infant deaths. To compute a given year’s infant mortality rate in a certain area, one would need to know how many babies were born alive in the area during the period and how many babies who were born alive died before their first birthday during that time. The number of infant deaths is then divided by the number of infant births, and the results are multiplied by 1,000 so that the rate reflects the number of infant deaths per 1,000 births in a standardized manner. Alternately, the rate could be multiplied by 10,000 or 1,000,000, depending on the desired comparison level.

Prevention of Mental Illness

Mental illness, also called mental health disorders, refers to a wide range of mental health conditions that affect your mood, thinking and behavior. Examples of mental illness include depression, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, eating disorders and addictive behaviors.

Many people have mental health concerns from time to time. But a mental health concern becomes a mental illness when ongoing signs and symptoms cause frequent stress and affect your ability to function. A mental illness can make you miserable and can cause problems in your daily life, such as at school or work or in relationships. In most cases, symptoms can be managed with a combination of medications and talk therapy (psychotherapy).

Signs and symptoms of mental illness can vary, depending on the disorder, circumstances and other factors. Mental illness symptoms can affect emotions, thoughts and behaviors.

Examples of signs and symptoms include:

• Feeling sad or down
• Confused thinking or reduced ability to concentrate
• Excessive fears or worries, or extreme feelings of guilt
• Extreme mood changes of highs and lows
• Withdrawal from friends and activities
• Significant tiredness, low energy or problems sleeping
• Detachment from reality (delusions), paranoia or hallucinations
• Inability to cope with daily problems or stress
• Trouble understanding and relating to situations and to people
• Problems with alcohol or drug use
• Major changes in eating habits
• Sex drive changes
• Excessive anger, hostility or violence
• Suicidal thinking

Why is pollution bad for your health?

If we accept environmental pollution, as the addition of any substance (solid, liquid, or gas) or any form of energy (such as heat, sound, light, or radioactivity) to the environment at a rate faster than it can be dispersed, diluted, decomposed, recycled, or stored in some harmless form, then we have a mammoth task just to classify and sort it all. The major kinds of environmental pollution, are air, water, and land.

And this is long before we start to get into specific sub-areas such as plastics p., noise p., lead p., or acid rain p. ALL of these have elements that are potentially harmful to the ecosystem (of which we are a part).

And we cannot ignore the global-sized sword of Damocles swinging ever closer, irreversible climate change due to atmospheric pollution from man-made CO2, CH4, and other greenhouse gases.

Even healthy people can experience health impacts from polluted air including respiratory irritation or breathing difficulties during exercise or outdoor activities. Your actual risk of adverse effects depends on your current health status, the pollutant type and concentration, and the length of your exposure to the polluted air.

What is Global Health?

Global health is the understanding of health care management in an international and interdisciplinary context. It includes the study, research, and practice of medicine with a focus on improving health and health care equity for populations worldwide. 

Global health initiatives take into account both medical and non-medical disciplines, such as 

• epidemiology, 
• sociology, 
• economic disparities, 
• public policy, 
• environmental factors, 
• cultural studies, etc.
  

One of the most prominent agencies focused on advancing global health is the World Health Organization (WHO), but this agency is not alone. Researchers and leaders in a variety of fields are spearheading initiatives.

“Each of these practices are inextricably connected,” McPherson explains, “and by learning from each other and pooling resources, great progress can be made for the benefit of human and animal kind.”

Come and join the global event and get an opportunity to share your recent research finding to the world and enlighten other esteemed delegates on latest trends in the field of Public Health.

Public health promotes and protects the health of people and the communities where they live, learn, work and play.

While the doctor treats people who are sick, people working in public health try to prevent other from getting sick or injured in the first place. Public Health also promote wellness by encouraging healthy behaviors.

From conducting scientific research to educating about health, people in the field of public health work to assure the conditions in which people can be healthy. That can mean vaccinating children and adults to prevent the spread of disease.
Also educating people about the risks of alcohol and tobacco. Public health sets safety standards to protect workers and develops school nutrition programs to ensure kids have access to healthy food.

Public health works to track disease outbreaks, prevent injuries and shed light on why some of us are more likely to suffer from poor health than others. The many facets of public health include speaking out for laws that promote smoke-free indoor air and seat belts, spreading the word about ways to stay healthy and giving science-based solutions to problems.

Public health saves money, improves our quality of life, helps children thrive and reduces human suffering.

To know more about Public Health, we Scietech International is taking a step forward and conducting a "Euro Global Conference on Public Health", where the speakers, delegates and Phd Students are going to share their talk.
