AI Article Synopsis

  • Family health history (FHH) is very important for understanding health problems in families, but Vietnam didn't have a good way to record it.
  • A new tool called "Gia Su Suc Khoe" (GSSK) was made to help people easily collect their family health info and check disease risks.
  • The tool got great reviews from doctors, with everyone saying it worked well, and it can really help improve healthcare in Vietnam!

Article Abstract

Family health history (FHH) is central to human genomic profiling construction; however, there is no protocol for documenting FHH in a pedigree format in Vietnam. A "Gia Su Suc Khoe" (GSSK) tool was developed to create a user-friendly interface for collecting FHH and offering diseases' risk assessment. A tool was described (https://giasusuckhoe.vn/) with good feedback from genetic counselors and family-medicine doctors. Among 20 surveys, 100% of respondents noted that the report accurately reflected their FHH and were satisfied with the tool's display. About 74% of familial conditions were covered. Overall, all constructive feedback has been adapted into the updated version. Gia Su Suc Khoe has the potential to significantly improve healthcare delivery and outcomes in Vietnam.

Background: PSEN1, PSEN2, and APP mutations cause Alzheimer's disease (AD) with an early age at onset (AAO) and progressive cognitive decline. PSEN1 mutations are more common and generally have an earlier AAO; however, certain PSEN1 mutations cause a later AAO, similar to those observed in PSEN2 and APP.

Methods: We examined whether common disease endotypes exist across these mutations with a later AAO (~ 55 years) using hiPSC-derived neurons from familial Alzheimer's disease (FAD) patients harboring mutations in PSEN1, PSEN2, and APP and mechanistically characterized by integrating RNA-seq and ATAC-seq.

Surveillance of drug prescribing: why outliers miss their targets - a qualitative study.

BMC Health Serv Res

January 2025

Institute of General Practice/Family Medicine, Philipps-University of Marburg, Karl-Von-Frisch-Straße 4, 35043, Marburg, Germany.

Background: Rising costs are a challenge for healthcare systems. To keep expenditure for drugs under control, in many healthcare systems, drug prescribing is continuously monitored. The Bavarian Drug Agreement (German: Wirkstoffvereinbarung or WSV) for the ambulatory sector in Bavaria (the federal state of Germany) was developed for this purpose.

Background: Uncontrolled hypertension is the leading modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular disease mortality and remains high in low-middle income countries like Haiti. Barriers and facilitators to achieving hypertension control in urban Haiti remain poorly understood. Elucidating these factors could lead to development of successful interventions.
