Track 05: Nutrition and Metabolism

Nutrition Metabolism is the set of life-sustaining chemical transformations within the cells of living organisms. These enzyme-catalyzed reactions allow organisms to grow and reproduce, maintain their structures, and respond to their environments. The word metabolism can also refer to all chemical reactions that occur in living organisms, including digestion and the transport of substances into and between different cells, in which case the set of reactions within the cells is called intermediary metabolism or intermediate metabolism.

Track 06: Nutrition and Biological Systems

Nutritional systems biology includes studies across the interface between biological systems and nutritional as well as other environmental factors. As part of this, the time-dependent interactions between nutrients, host metabolism, and gut microbiota are still understood. Systems biology in the context of food and nutrition research thus requires bridging across multiple levels and concepts, for example, cellular--organismal, host--microbial, short-term versus long-term effects.

Track 07:Nutrition and Infectious Diseases

Communicable diseases are those which get transferred from one person to another or one animal to a person or another animal by means of any contamination. The diseases often spread from one other via air, food, water or transfusing instruments or blood transfusion or bodily fluids. Communicable also mean infectious and contagious.

Many of the epidemic diseases that the world experiencing today are because of contamination. Limiting contamination and proper hygienic habits can halt the spread of disease.

The focus areas involved in combating communicable diseases include public health information, science and research, prevention and control, case management, and regulating diagnostic tests and vaccines. Early diagnosis, proper medication and maintaining good hygienic habits are crucial for communicable diseases.

Track 08: Nutrition and Non-Communicable Diseases

A Non-Communicable Disease (NCD) is a medical condition or disease that is by definition non-infectious and non-transmissible among people. Currently, NCDs are the leading causes of death and disease burden worldwide. The four main types of NCDs, including cardiovascular disease, cancer, chronic lung disease, and diabetes, result in more than 30 million deaths annually. To reduce the burden of NCDs on global health, current Public Health actions stress the importance of preventing, detecting, and correcting modifiable risk factors; controlling major modifiable risk factors has been shown to effectively reduce NCD mortality.

Society of Nutrigenetics and Nutrigenomics May 22-26 2016, Israel

Track 09: Nutritional Deficiencies and Malnutrition

Malnutrition or malnourishment is a condition that results from eating a diet in which nutrients are either not enough or are too much such that the diet causes health problems. Malnutrition is often used specifically to refer to under nutrition where there are not enough calories, protein or micronutrients. This is often related to high food prices and poverty. A lack of breast feeding may contribute as a number of infectious diseases such as: gastroenteritis, pneumonia, malaria and measles which increase nutrient requirements. Breastfeeding can reduce rates of malnutrition and death in children. Longer term measures include: improving agricultural practices, reducing poverty, improving sanitation, and the empowerment of women. Over nutrition can result in obesity and overweight. Under nutrition is sometimes used as a synonym of protein–energy malnutrition (PEM).

Track 10: Nutrition and Systematic Disorders

Systemic Disorder is a condition involving the body as a whole, as opposed to limited conditions that affect particular parts of the body. It is an abnormal condition of a part, organ, or system of an organism resulting from various causes, such as infection, inflammation, environmental factors, or genetic defect, and characterized by an identifiable group of signs, symptoms, or both.

Track 11:  Nutrition and Health Polices

In Nutrition Health Policy rather than considering the health of the individual we will consider the health of the entire community or certain population. It mainly focus on preventing infectious disease, removing contaminants from food and drinking water, reducing pollutions, by Public Health Policies (for example administering vaccines for various diseases) etc. since they can affect the entire community. The health of the nation can be influenced by public health policies, such as a tobacco control policy, and by policies in many other sectors. For example, transportation policies can encourage increased physical activity and school nutrition policies can ensure healthier meals are provided in schools. Many national health strategies, plans, and initiatives, such as Healthy People 2020, have policy implications. Policy decisions are also frequently reflected in resource allocations

Track 12: Nutrition and Health Education

Nutrition Education is a combination of education and strategies designed to facilitate the voluntary adoption of food choices and other food and nutrition related behaviour for the betterment and maintenance of the health condition of the individual.

Learning about healthy nutritional practices has several positive implications for an individual’s physical well-being. School and secondary education universities should conduct programs designed to educate and encourage children and teenagers to make wise eating choices can help alleviate the prevalence of obesity.

Restrictive eating is extremely detrimental to a person’s health as a lack of nutrients and energy makes it impossible for normal bodily function. Without proper nutritional guidance, children are susceptible towards falling into long lasting poor eating habits that may lead to a number of health risks.

Track 13: Nutrition and Care

Nutrition Care is the science of food having balanced organic and inorganic elements like carbohydrates, proteins, minerals, vitamins and phytonutrients supporting wellbeing of a living entity. It includes food intake, absorption, assimilation, biosynthesis, catabolism and excretion.

Nutrition Care provide a common understanding about the profession's minimum expectations for practice, and form a basis for self-evaluation and improvement and an expectation about nutritional care and service delivery. The standards of practice in nutrition care are comprised of four standards representing the four steps of the nutrition care process.

It is a systematic problem-solving method that dietitians may use to critically think and make decisions when providing medical nutrition therapy or to address nutrition related problems and provide safe, effective, high quality nutrition care.

Scope and Importance:

Public health focuses on the health of the public in aggregate.  It addresses monitoring and surveillance of nutritional status and nutritional environments in communities or populations at risk, identifies and analyses behavioral, sociocultural, economic, political, and environmental determinants of nutrition-related public health. The 20th century provided horrendous examples of violence, neglect, injustice, suffering and death that resulted from disregard of fundamental values and goals of public health, also Public health has many enormous achievements to its credit adding many years of life expectancy globally. The ultimate goal of public health is the biologic, physical and mental well-being of the society by prolonging life and promoting healthy lifestyle. It includes pre-planning of natural and man-made disasters. Various health systems around the world incorporate public health activities and responsibilities differently, depending on the structure, financing, and availability of health care in a population. The modern public health also deals with disease transmission by conducting research that contributes to generalizable knowledge. Public health has a challenging future which requires building public credibility in face of opposition and reluctance to immunize or to adopt healthy lifestyles, unjustified delayed adoption of effective prevention methods, and challenges and rollbacks due to anti-public health activism.

By analyzing the statistics of the city Madrid, Spain and the world, it was found that more than 500 associations are spread globally, 10 organizations in Spain and 2 in Madrid. These associations help in partnership with mutual benefits regarding health and wealth, share resources and exhibit innovative health strategies.

MEMBERS SURVEY:

Hospitals associated with Public Health research:

The key agenda of public health hospitals is to provide healthy environment that encourages the community to be in a healthy condition. Public health skills have a key role in ensuring high‐quality, safe and evidence‐based health care. The Public Health Hospitals function as an integral part of the Department and contribute to its commitment to maintain, protect and improve the health and wellbeing of citizens of the Commonwealth. There are more than around 74 hospitals having publichealth sectors, 804 in Spain and nearly 11 in the city Madrid. The statistical report shows that Spain spends twice as much treating patients, who come as tourists from other countries.

PUBLIC PRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS (PPP) projects are flourishing in Spain in the area of healthcare sectors. PPP has proved to be an important tool for the development of new hospitals where lack of hospitals is an issue. The regional government of Madrid used the PPP formula to build and operate 8 new Public hospitals, with 120-700 beds.

Societies associated with Public Health research:

Public health societies are associations or organizations run by graduates of national, state and regional public health members with leadership institutes and developmental programs. They mainly emphasize and collaborate on public health issues that impact the nation. Public Health Program supports marginalized populations to fight discrimination and protect their fundamental rights. The program aims to build societies committed to inclusion, human rights, and justice, in which health-related policies and practices reflect these values and are based on evidence.  There are over 60 societies all around the world, more than 10 in Spain and about 6-8 in Madrid.

Industries associated with Public Health research:

Public health sectors provide goods and services to treat patients. The industries are divided into many sectors to meet the needs of publichealth in an easy way. Health care is one of the most rapidly growing sectors of the economy, with expenditures in 1988 totaling $539.9 billion, or 11.1 percent of GNP, up from 5.3 percent of GNP in 1960. For 1992, health care spending was projected to be over 13 percent of GNP. This amounts to $2,124 per capita, of which $1,882 was for personal health care—medical services and supplies for individuals. The rest was for research, construction, administration, and public health activities. Hospital expenditures accounted for 39 percent of the total spent for personal health care, physician services for 19 percent, nursing home care for 8 percent, and other personal health care for 22 percent. There are more than 900 healthcare industries over the world and nearly 100 in Spain. The city Madrid has around 30-40 public health related sectors.

Universities associated with Public Health research

The public health universities offer the area to study on global health that could support and cultivate their interest on health conditions of population. This specialty area provides an opportunity for students from different discipline-based programs to explore multi-disciplinary issues in global health through coursework, mentorship, and global health engagement (i.e., social events, internships, symposia, programs). The public health field addresses the interdependent relationships of increasing health risks and medical professionals working. Public health leaders and researchers develop methods to prevent disease, develop reforms, and promote health and well-being for all people. Public health is an academic as well as a practice-oriented endeavor that requires professionals to understand the critical linkages between theory and practice. The Masters in public health provides students with the knowledge and skills for an effective work in the practice of global health; they learn the flexibility to combine coursework in financial management, economics, policy analysis and infectious-chronic diseases with comparative studies addressing the social and cultural issues that impact health. On an analytical survey, it was found that there are more than 80 universities offering public health programs all over the world, more than 60 in Spain and approximately 10 in Madrid. 

Market value on Public Health research:

Spanish healthcare spends around 9% of GDP and they spend $9.5 billion for Healthcare Technology equipment. WHO has carried out the first ever analysis of the world’s health system and finds that Spain is one of the best country that provides overall health care.  While coming to the Sports Nutrition it was $20.7 billion in 2012 and it was estimated that the market value reaches to $37.7 Billion in 2019.  Global Clinical Nutrition market was valued at $36.9 billion in 2013 and is expected to grow to $48.6 billion by value in 2020. In Spain, the incorporation of high technology equipment which are highly expensive for detecting and treating illness is another factor for increasing expenditure. 

Market Growth of public health in the last and upcoming ten years

 

Public health market growth is increasing simultaneously from the last 10 years. The total global health spending was expected to rise 2.6% by 2013, and 5.3% over the next four years. The growth also depends on governments, insurers, healthcare delivery systems, consumers, etc. in both developed and developing countries to bring awareness among population and to deal with issues related to health. According to estimates, the overall market growth in the past ten years has reached to $160000 worldwide and it is expected in the coming ten years it will reach to $5 trillion by 2020 globally.
