Communities in Action by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine,Health and Medicine Division,Board on Population Health and Public Health Practice,Committee on Community-Based Solutions to Promote Health Equity in the United States Pdf

In the United States, some populations suffer from far greater disparities in health than others. Those disparities are caused not only by fundamental differences in health status across segments of the population, but also because of inequities in factors that impact health status, so-called determinants of health. Only part of an individual's health status depends on his or her behavior and choice; community-wide problems like poverty, unemployment, poor education, inadequate housing, poor public transportation, interpersonal violence, and decaying neighborhoods also contribute to health inequities, as well as the historic and ongoing interplay of structures, policies, and norms that shape lives. When these factors are not optimal in a community, it does not mean they are intractable: such inequities can be mitigated by social policies that can shape health in powerful ways. Communities in Action: Pathways to Health Equity seeks to delineate the causes of and the solutions to health inequities in the United States. This report focuses on what communities can do to promote health equity, what actions are needed by the many and varied stakeholders that are part of communities or support them, as well as the root causes and structural barriers that need to be overcome.

The Age of Scientific Wellness by Leroy Hood,Nathan Price Pdf

Taking us to the cutting edge of the new frontier of medicine, a visionary biotechnologist and a pathbreaking researcher show how we can optimize our health in ways that were previously unimaginable. We are on the cusp of a paradigm shift in the delivery of health care as major diseases are being challenged in fresh and unexpected ways. Using predictive technologies, applied immunotherapy, and genomically informed disease prevention, scientists are working closely with patients to dramatically extend their "healthspan"--the number of healthy years before disease sets in. Leroy Hood, whose innovations made possible the sequencing of the human genome, and Nathan Price, whose work on systems biology is opening new pathways to Alzheimer's treatment and prevention, take us on a thrilling journey to this new frontier of medicine. Today, most doctors wait for clinical symptoms to appear before they act. Countless patients are prescribed medication and subjected to invasive procedures from which they derive no benefit. We must move beyond this reactive, hit-or-miss approach to usher in real precision care or "scientific wellness." Fusing information gleaned from our personal genomic profiles with data drawn from our blood, microbiomes, and hundreds of other inputs, all analyzed by artificial intelligence, doctors can detect the early onset of disease decades before symptoms arise, revolutionizing prevention. Current applications have already shown startling results: Alzheimer's held back, cancers found early and eliminated, diabetes avoided, and autoimmune diseases neutralized. Genomically informed medicine is not some future fantasy: it is already happening at top medical centers, but only for a narrow band of diseases and only once they are well advanced. This book shares the insights of this exciting new science to help you chart a course to a longer, healthier life.
