Discussion on the Challenges Surrounding Anti-microbial Resistance, Using Relevant Case-study Examples

2022-11-15T08:49:37+08:00

The advent of antimicrobial drugs has made a huge contribution to human society, but their commodity nature has given rise to behaviors such as abuse and overuse, leading to the emergence of resistance to antimicrobial drugs and other hazards. Nowadays, the structure of interests formed by various stakeholders in the market circulation of antimicrobial agents has become unbalanced, and government intervention as a breakthrough still faces many challenges. This paper discusses the AMR challenges of government intervention under the interest structure in the context of case studies in the Global North and the Global South areas from the point of view of human health in terms of stagnant R & D processes for novel antimicrobial drugs, a profit-oriented neoliberal atmosphere that mismatches production trends of antimicrobial drugs with market demand, the prevalence of private institutions lacking effective regulation, incomplete government interventions, and the difficulty of pursuing the WHO strategic plan on antimicrobial resistance, etc.

The incidence of aortic dissection (AD) is estimated to be 1 in 100,000 per year. The onset and progression of AD are rapid. Failure to receive appropriate treatment might lead to death in a short time. Even following active treatment, patients might develop low cardiac output syndrome, severe infection, and hemorrhage, which lead to death. Interventional therapy is a surgical method that has been widely used in Stanford type B AD recently. It is characterized by minimal invasiveness, low incidence of postoperative complications, and low cost. This article will review the interventional treatments for AD and will guide the selection of treatment options.

Cancer Rehabilitation, A New Discipline Based upon Multidisciplinary Collaboration

2022-11-15T08:49:37+08:00

Cancer Rehabilitation is a new discipline, a combination of tumor medication, immunology, psychology, nutritional science and exercise physiology etc.. The core of cancer rehabilitation is the therapy of natural immunology, which aims at activating T-cells, and restoring the bone marrow function impaired during chemo-radiation therapy. Cancer rehabilitation seeks to achieve the gradual recovery of the immune system, which in turn hinders recurrence and metastasis. In addition, with the help of psychological consultation, nutritional and physical exercise guidance, cancer patients may have a better chance at managing the risk of recurrence and metastasis, extending life expectancy with an improved quality of life.
