Abstract:
In order to improve the ability of public health risk assessment in the context of community collaborative prevention and control, a mathematical model of public health risk assessment in the context of community collaborative prevention and control based on the integration and balanced allocation of big data features in the prevention horizon is proposed. The constraint parameter model of public health risk assessment under the background of community collaborative prevention and control is constructed, the method of dynamic feature analysis of joint prevention and control is adopted to realize the dynamic risk point detection of public health risk assessment data and the integration of constraint mechanism related feature points, and the fuzzy dynamic statistical feature matching method is adopted to carry out the adaptive dynamic statistics and resource balanced allocation analysis of public health risk assessment set under the background of community collaborative prevention and control. A public health risk parameter fusion model is established under the background of community collaborative prevention and control, the methods of balanced resource allocation and joint management and control are combined to realize balanced scheduling and prevention area block matching in the process of dynamic parameter estimation of public health risk evaluation data under the background of community collaborative prevention and control, the correlation distribution of public health risk under the background of community collaborative prevention and control is taken as the cost function, and balanced allocation is realized according to the statistical information sampling results of public health risk evaluation data under the background of community collaborative prevention and control. Combined with differential clustering analysis, the data clustering and attribute merging of public health risk assessment under the background of community collaborative prevention and control are realized, and the mathematical modeling optimization of public health risk assessment under the background of community collaborative prevention and control is realized. The simulation results show that this method has good adaptability, high degree of parameter fusion, and strong ability of matching risk prevention areas and balancing resource allocation in the context of community collaborative prevention and control.

Abstract:
Abstract Elder abuse is a growing problem with significant public health implications. Because elder abuse shares root causes with other types of violence (e.g., suicidal behavior, intimate partner violence), awareness of elder abuse as a violence prevention priority is rising among public health professionals. Major limitations, however, affect delivery of effective population-level primary prevention for elder abuse, necessitating increased community partnerships. In Washington State, the Department of Health’s Injury and Violence Prevention Section and the Department of Social and Health Services Adult Protective Services Division are leveraging existing strategies to increase identification and reporting of potential elder abuse from falls and injury prevention partners (i.e., opioids, suicide). We describe: (1) challenges and opportunities in creating unique cross-program collaborations, (2) the combined education and outreach efforts of this partnership, and (3) strategies for sustained collaboration. Additionally, we share results of a scoping literature review on evidence-based violence prevention strategies applicable to elder abuse between 2015 – 2019. In the Pubmed and Academic Search Complete databases, the following terms were searched: elder abuse prevention, primary prevention, shared risk and protective factors. Only six articles were identified that addressed primary prevention efforts. Researchers note that primary prevention of elder abuse is poorly understood and challenges exist in applying methods from other types of violence. Education for key community members on identification of abuse is a promising intervention targeting shared risk and protective factors for public health to pursue. Cross-sector community partnerships and rigorous evaluation of primary prevention approaches are needed.

Abstract:
This paper attempts to discuss why the early intervention agenda based on the current convention of ‘ultra-high risk’ (UHR) or ‘clinical high risk’ (CHR) for ‘transition’ to psychosis framework has been destined to fall short of generating a measurable and economically feasible public health impact. To summarise: (1) the primary determinant of the ‘transition’ rate is not the predictive value of the UHR/CHR but the degree of the risk-enrichment; (2) even with a significant pre-test risk enrichment, the prognostic accuracy of the assessment tools in help-seeking population is mediocre, failing to meet the bare minimum thresholds; (3) therapeutic interventions arguably prolong the time-to-onset of psychotic symptoms instead of preventing ‘transition’, given that the UHR/CHR and ‘transition’ lie on the same unidimensional scale of positive psychotic symptoms; (4) meta-analytical evidence confirms that specific effective treatment for preventing ‘transition’ (the goal—primary outcome—of the UHR/CHR framework) is not available; (5) the UHR/CHR-‘transition’ is a precarious target for research given the unpredictability driven by the sampling strategies and the natural ebb and flow of psychotic symptoms within and between individuals, leading to false positives; (6) only a negligible portion of those who develop psychosis benefits from UHR/CHR services (see prevention paradox); (7) limited data on the cost-effectiveness of these services exist. Given the pitfalls of the narrow focus of the UHR/CHR framework, a broader prevention strategy embracing pluripotency of early psychopathology seems to serve as a better alternative. Nevertheless, there is a need for economic evaluation of these extended transdiagnostic early intervention programmes.

Abstract:
For over 100 years, the field of contemporary public health has existed to improve the health of communities and populations. As public health practitioners conduct their work – be it focused on preventing transmission of infectious diseases, or prevention of injury, or prevention of and cures for chronic conditions – ethical dimensions arise. Borrowing heavily from the ethical tools developed for research ethics and bioethics, the nascent field of public health ethics soon began to feel the limits of the clinical model and began creating different frameworks to guide its ethical challenges. Several public health ethics frameworks have been introduced since the late 1990s, ranging from extensions of principle-based models to human rights and social justice perspectives to those based on political philosophy. None has coalesced as the framework of choice in the discipline of public health. This paper examines several of the most-known frameworks of public health ethics for their common theoretical underpinnings and values, and suggests next steps toward the formulation of a single framework.

Abstract:
In the current environment where the network and the real society are intertwined, the network public view of public emergencies has involved in reality and altered the ecology of communal public views in China. A new online court of influence has been created, and it affected the trend of events. As the main type of public emergencies, public health emergencies are directly related to people’s health and life insurance. Therefore, the public often pays special attention. At present, correct media guidance plays an irreplaceable and important role in calming people’s hearts and stabilizing social order. If news and public view are left unchecked, it is likely to cause panic among the people. However, in reality, public view research has always been a research object that is difficult to intelligentize and quantify. Based on such a realistic background, the article conducts a research on public view of public health emergencies based on artificial intelligence data analysis. This study designs an expert system for network public view and optimizes the algorithm for the key problem: SFC deployment. Finally, the system was put into real news and public opinion research on new coronavirus epidemic prevention, and experimental tests were carried out. The experimental results have shown that in the new coronavirus incident, the nuclear leakage incident, and the epidemic prevention policy, the data obtained by the public through the Internet are 50%, 68.06%, and 64.35%, respectively. For the system function in this study, both ICSO and IPSO are far better than the optimization results of CSO and PSO. For most of the test functions, IPSO is better than ICSO’s optimization results, which better fulfills the needs of the research content. This study will make an in-depth analysis of the evolution process of online public opinion on public emergencies from the macro-, meso-, and micro-perspectives, in order to analyze the dissemination methods and internal evolution mechanism of various public emergencies of online public opinion, which provides countermeasures and suggestions for the government to guide and manage network public opinion.

Abstract:
Child maltreatment is a significant health and social issue given its prevalence across the general population and the significant short- and long-term outcomes associated with maltreatment in childhood. There is a need for a comprehensive, collaborative and multisectoral approach for identification, prevention and intervention of this complex issue. Within this multisectoral collaboration, it is essential for public health in Canada to define its role in addressing and preventing child maltreatment. This commentary summarizes how public health can address the issue of child maltreatment in Canada by specifically: 1) measuring the magnitude of maltreatment through public health surveillance systems such as the Canadian Incidence Study of Reported Child Abuse and Neglect; 2) identifying modifiable risk factors; 3) identifying and evaluating community-based interventions to prevent violence; and 4) implementing evidence-based primary prevention strategies.

Abstract:
Too often, public health decisions are based on short-term demands rather than long-term research and objectives. Policies and programmes are sometimes developed around anecdotal evidence. The Evidence-Based Public Health (EBPH) programme trains public health practitioners to use a comprehensive, scientific approach when developing and evaluating chronic disease programmes. Begun in 2002, the EBPH programme is an international collaboration. The course is organized in seven parts to teach skills in: 1) assessing a community's needs; 2) quantifying the issue; 3) developing a concise statement of the issue; 4) determining what is known about the issue by reviewing the scientific literature; 5) developing and prioritizing programme and policy options; 6) developing an action plan and implementing interventions; and 7) evaluating the programme or policy. The course takes an applied approach and emphasizes information that is readily available to busy practitioners, relying on experiential learning and includes lectures, practice exercises, and case studies. It focuses n using evidence-based tools and encourages participants to add to the evidence base in areas where intervention knowledge is sparse. Through this training programme, we educated practitioners from 38 countries in 4 continents. This article describes the evolution of the parent course and describes experiences implementing the course in the Russian Federation, Lithuania, and Chile. Lessons learned from replication of the course include the need to build a “critical mass” of public health officials trained in EBPH within each country and the importance of international, collaborative networks. Scientific and technologic advances provide unprecedented opportunities for public health professionals to enhance the practice of EBPH. To take full advantage of new technology and tools and to combat new health challenges, public health practitioners must continually improve their skills.

The information provided is based in large measure on reports of suicide mortality from 130/193 countries. In order to contextualize these data, this paper explores the contribution of both individual and sociocultural factors that influence suicidal behavior, from which much has been learned. Outlining the history of attempts by international and national organizations like WHO, United Nations, member states in the European community and other countries to regularize identification and suicide reporting procedures, this paper also demonstrates that serious knowledge gaps remain. Minimal requirements for successful evidence-based interventions are presented.

Abstract:
Abstract Prevention is the most effective element of measures to promote oral health. The authors have conducted an analysis of the current health system in Poland with particular emphasis put on caries prevention focused on children. It is worth noting that in the first days of life a midwife introduces „the area of dental prophylaxis“. In subsequent years of life i.e. 2, 4, 6, 10, 13, 16, 19, both the dentist and the primary care doctor provide prophylactic services. More preventive actions are organized in primary school (grades I-VI), where group fluoride prophylaxis and education in oral health are carried out by a nurse/school hygienist. The effects of preventive measures, as measured by epidemiological studies presented among others in the reports from the Monitoring of Oral Health by the Ministry of Health, show that the adopted regulations are unsatisfactory. It is necessary to carry out a public information campaign on the negative consequences of neglecting disease prevention and the consequences of incorrect early treatment of oral cavity diseases and their influence over the proper development of children.

Abstract:
Introduction: Leucorrhoea can endanger pregnancy and result premature labor. Health education is needed for good vulva hygiene behavior. This study aims to explain the effectiveness of Health Education (HE) based on the Health Belief Model (HBM) on Vulva Hygiene Behavior in the Prevention of Leucorrhoea in Pregnant Women. Method: The first stage of research was literature study, expert discussion, and development of an intervention module. The participants were pregnant women in the second trimester. The instrument is the researcher. An interview guide with a questionnaire. Qualitative data analysis. The second stage of research used the quasi-experimental design (pre and post-testdesign). The independent variable is Health Education based on the Health Belief Model (HBM). The dependent variable is the behavior of Vulva Hygiene in the prevention of vaginal discharge for pregnant women. An instrument with a questionnaire. Data collection through pre-test, intervention, post-test. The number of participants in each group was 30 participants. Research at the Kedungdoro Public Health Center in Surabaya from December 2019-October 2020. Result: The first stage of research, showed that several trimester II pregnant women performed vulva hygiene correctly and some did not know how to do vulva hygiene, some did not do vulva hygiene. The module consists of 4 themes. The Health Education (HE) experimental group based on the Health Belief Model (HBM) was effective on Vulva Hygiene behavior in preventing vaginal discharge in pregnant women with a value (P) = 0.000. The Health Education (He) control group based on the Health Belief Model (HBM) was not effective on vulva hygiene behavior in preventing vaginal discharge in pregnant women with a value (P) = 0.083. The results of the pre-test of vulva hygiene behavior in the prevention of vaginal discharge in the non-intervention group and the intervention group were not different with a value (P) of 0.488> 0.05. In the post-test of vulva hygiene behavior in the intervention group and the non-intervention group, there was a difference with a value (P) of 0.000 <0.05. Analysis: Through Health Education based on the Health Belief Model, it can increase the confidence of each individual to behave healthily, in the form of prevention and use of health facilities. The Health Belief Model (HBM) is the main framework for healthy behavior. This gives HBM a function as a preventive or preventive model. Discuss: The behavior of vulva hygiene in preventing vaginal discharge in pregnant women between the experimental group and the control group was a significant difference.

Abstract:
Oregon’s School Based Health Centers (SBHCs) have grown from five in 1986 to the 41 state certified centers currently in operation. The centers provide developmentally appropriate primary care and behavioral health care services to elementary, middle, and high school sites. SBHC program goals include increasing student access to care, and improving both health and educational outcomes. In the 2000-2001 service year, the Oregon SBHC program began the administration of a new patient satisfaction survey designed to measure satisfaction with services, access, receipt of prevention messages, and number of missed classes. A proportional random survey sample was achieved with a 98% response rate. Results indicate that SBHC patients had high levels of satisfaction and compliance, an increased likelihood of accessing care, high levels of compliance and satisfaction with services, decreased time from school for health care reasons, and were likely to have received one or more prevention messages. This experience demonstrates how public health surveillance can be incorporated into a SBHC clinical setting with minimal disruption to services and can inform SBHC program evaluation and improvement.

Abstract:
Communities are the first line of defense in responding to major public health events. Taking the community-based prevention and control cases of COVID-19 in China as samples, this paper constructs an analytical framework for the generation of community-based prevention and control capacity of public health events from the perspective of governance elements optimization based on the methods of text analysis and limits-to-growth archetype analysis. According to the research, the community-based prevention and control of public health events realizes the integration of governance elements of key actors through the bureaucratic coordination mode and maximizes the prevention and control efficiency with the primary goal of epidemic prevention and control in a short period of time, which presents a “reinforcing feedback” loop in the “limits-to-growth” model system. However, with the development of the epidemic showing a strong trend of being latent and wide spread, the “reinforcing feedback” from the bureaucratic coordination model on the effect of epidemic prevention and control encounters the “regulatory feedback” that inhibits the growth at the data-driven level. On the basis of discussing the practice of the public health prevention and control mode in the grassroots communities under the established political framework, this paper attempts to construct an institutional reform system from technological governance to technological empowerment, so as to effectively realize the mode transformation of community-based prevention and control of public health events.

Abstract:
In the past 10 years, various sudden public outbreaks of diseases worldwide have posed great threats to the economic and social development of countries. However, there is a lack of case studies and empirical studies on the fight against major outbreaks in foreign public health institutions. Based on a review of classical materials and narrative research methods, this study combs the institutional profile, function allocation, and funding input of the American Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and focuses on the CDC’s important measures and experiences in preventing and controlling the Ebola virus in West Africa during 2014–2015. According to the research, the main characteristics of CDC’s epidemic prevention and control in the United States are effective organizational structure and system, as well as the abilities of emergency management of rapid response. Furthermore, these two advantages and characteristics have penetrated the construction of the incident management system, adoption of specialized technical means and tools, and wide cooperation network and organizational coordination. Accordingly, the enlightenment of public health institutions regarding “epidemic prevention” and “anti-epidemic” is proposed from two aspects: system construction and ability enhancement.

Abstract:
AbstractRisk assessment is a key component of public health interventions intended to prevent or reduce adverse health effects. Health risk assessments are widely used to guide public health programming, as well as multi-sectoral studies of environmental impact and developmental decision making. Analytical risk assessment is a well-validated tool that is routinely used among certain subsets of public health, including those for chemical, radiological, and microbiological risk assessment. However, this is not the case for risk assessments involving disasters in general, or more specifically, for public health emergencies involving environmental hazards (eg, technological, hydro-meteorological, and seismic).There remains a need for a reproducible, well-validated, disaster-related health risk assessment process that is suitable for accommodating the current gaps in certainty. This report is intended to offer a practical framework and nomenclature for assessing disaster-related health risk that is: (1) accurate; (2) based upon historical evidence; (3) quantifiable in public health terms; and (4) inclusive of uncertainty.KeimM.

Abstract:
Abstract Suicide in older adults is a major public health concern. Data of suicide rates of older adults from the Centers for Disease Control suggests that suicide is more frequent in older adults and warrants further examination of treatment and public health prevention approaches. Risk factors for suicide in the elderly include functional disability, multiple chronic physical conditions, and social isolation. Several advances have been made in healthcare policy to address practical, evidence-based approaches to preventing suicide and treating behavioral health conditions such as depression, including collaborative care and the Zero Suicide model. This symposium will focus on reviewing the epidemiology and evidence-based approaches for suicide prevention and mental health treatment for older adults. In this presentation, the presenters describe the current trends in suicide rate in older adults in the United States, indicate risk factors (both modifiable and non-modifiable), and present about the collaborative care and Zero Suicide models. Speakers will emphasize the role of these two models in suicide prevention and population-based behavioral healthcare. The presenters will also highlight examples of policy changes and provide recommendations for regulators and hospital systems to adopt these evidence-based models of care for caring for older adults at risk for suicide.

Abstract: Hispanics constitute the largest ethnic minority group in the United States. As the country’s fastest growing demographic, social welfare and public health professionals need to focus on ameliorating HIV-related health disparities affecting Hispanics. This study evaluated an innovative HIV prevention effort with Hispanic young adults in South Florida that utilized a social media based platform to increase access to critical HIV prevention information and services. This study (1) evaluated the effectiveness of exposure to the online campaign using an experimental design and (2) provided a systematic review of the campaign’s content and user interactivity. Hispanic young adults (ages 18-24) completed baseline and follow-up assessments focused on risk perceptions and incorporation of HIV preventive behaviors. Mixed ANOVA and logistic regression analysis revealed no significant differences between groups (exposure versus no exposure to the online campaign); however, there was a statistically significant increase in awareness of HIV prevention services across both study conditions (p< .001). Findings reflect the challenges of and opportunities for conducting HIV prevention work online and suggest areas of future research for enhancing online engagement among hard to reach populations.

Abstract:
Communities and populations are comprised of individuals and families who together affect the health of the community. The family unit is an unparalleled player for maintaining health and preventing disease for public health because members may support and nurture one another through life stages. Preliminary research confirms that family-oriented health promotion and disease prevention are promising strategies because the family unit is both a resource and a priority group needing preventative and curative services across the life course. Although there are growing numbers of successful efforts, family health systems are generally underutilized in health promotion practice. This lack of utilization in policy and practice have hampered the collection of robust evidence for family health. This paper purports that families are important actors in public health. Yet, since no one pattern for healthy families is known, public health practitioners can consider six principle-based approaches to legitimately and respectfully advance the families’ innate potential for health promotion and disease prevention. Each perspective aims to foster higher capacity for family health systems to function appropriately in public health practice. Health promotion practitioners and researchers can explore family health perspectives with the potential for systems policy and practice adjustments in public health.

Abstract:
This paper summarizes the arguments and counterarguments within the scientific discussion on the factors that influence public health service. The main purpose of this research is to determine the expected indicators of pathogenic and sanogenic effects on significant risk factors of pathology among children. For achieving the research goal, the authors substantiated the models of final results for the modification of risk factors. Investigation of antenatal and genealogical factors in healthy and ill children groups was performed using a specially compiled expert assessment card and parents’ interviews. The systemic population modeling methods were applied to develop and substantiate population health management models (early diagnosis and primary prevention). Evaluation of the expected effectiveness of the N-factor program of primary prevention was carried out on a set of genealogical and antenatal factors. Conducted logical analysis of the methodology of quantitative and qualitative determination of health and the gathered experience in that respect were taken into account in developing population models of preventive effects. This study provides the identified priority directions for realizing the regional and population programs to implement them further. The authors presented the example of calculating the expected effectiveness of children’s health management by eliminating the investigated factors. The authors determine the priority directions for realizing the regional and population programs pathology based on the influence on the various elements to improve the public health services system. An example of calculating the expected effectiveness of children’s health management by eliminating these factors is given. The obtained results could be used to further research the issues associated with a prospective assessment of the program’s effectiveness in reducing the impact of antenatal and genealogical factors on children’s health.

Abstract:
Disease surveillance systems are a cornerstone of public health tracking and prevention. This review addresses the use, promise, perils, and ethics of social media– and Internet-based data collection for public health surveillance. Our review highlights untapped opportunities for integrating digital surveillance in public health and current applications that could be improved through better integration, validation, and clarity on rules surrounding ethical considerations. Promising developments include hybrid systems that couple traditional surveillance data with data from search queries, social media posts, and crowdsourcing. In the future, it will be important to identify opportunities for public and private partnerships, train public health experts in data science, reduce biases related to digital data (gathered from Internet use, wearable devices, etc.), and address privacy. We are on the precipice of an unprecedented opportunity to track, predict, and prevent global disease burdens in the population using digital data.

Abstract:
A cross-sector collaboration among a community-based organization, a prison arts program, and state departments of Public Health, Education, and Correction was established to address critical health education prevention efforts for at-risk high school–aged youth. The Tell Me What You See initiative utilizes artwork and poetry created by incarcerated youth to promote sexually transmitted disease (STD), HIV, and hepatitis prevention with students in public high schools and juvenile justice facilities. This innovative intervention integrates functional health knowledge and skills-based education through an art-based interdisciplinary approach reaching various populations of youth in multiple settings across a state. Evaluation results indicated that the materials effectively engage youth and open up a critical dialogue among peers and adults by addressing the role personal behavior can have in the prevention of STDs, hepatitis, and HIV.

AbstractIn this paper, I explore multilingual preventative public health messages against the spread of COVID-19 in Taiwan between January and April 2020. Based on empirical data, the symbolic and substantive content of multilingual top-down and bottom-up public health strategies was analyzed and discussed. Findings suggest that the voices of indigenous people have largely been excluded from top-down efforts and strategies in public health communications. Top-down communication did not address the actual concerns of indigenous populations who relied on tourism to bolster their economy. Bottom-up efforts emerged from social exclusion and the inaccessibility of public health information to indigenous populations; such efforts were over-communicated, and the problems of indigenous populations remained unaddressed. I conclude by relating multilingualism and the needs of minority groups, and suggest an inclusive approach to social challenges and solutions for future pandemic preparedness.

Abstract The prevention of Alzheimer's disease is a growing public health concern amidst an ageing population. Meanwhile, there is no effective or curative treatment available where prevention could greatly reduce health costs. This review was based on reports of potential preventive factors, including modifiable lifestyle factors, as well as preventive pharmacological strategies. Although the present review was not systematic, the reports selected from PubMed using "Alzheimer's disease" and "prevention" as key-words, allow us to affirm that pursuing a healthy lifestyle; physical, cognitive, leisure activities; good social engagement; a high consumption of fish, low consumption of dietary fat and moderate consumption of wine, and control of vascular risk factors appear to be potential factors for delaying dementia.

Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the implementation and effectiveness of school-based interventions to prevent obesity conducted in Latin America and provide suggestions for future prevention efforts in countries of the region. METHODS: Articles published in English, Spanish, and Portuguese between 2000 and 2017 were searched in four online databases (Google Scholar, PubMed, LILACS, and REDALYC). Inclusion criteria were: studies targeting school-aged children and adolescents (6–18 years old), focusing on preventing obesity in a Latin American country using at least one school-based component, reporting at least one obesity-related outcome, comprising controlled or before-and-after design, and including information on intervention components and/or process. RESULTS: Sixteen studies met the inclusion criteria. Most effective interventions (n = 3) had moderate quality and included multi-component school-based programs to promote health education and parental involvement focused on healthy eating and physical activity behaviors. These studies also presented a better study designs, few limitations for execution, and a minimum duration of six months. CONCLUSIONS: Evidence-based prevention experiences are important guides for future strategies implemented in the region. Alongside gender differences, an adequate duration, and the combined use of quantitative and qualitative evaluation methods, evidence-based prevention should be considered to provide a clearer and deeper understanding of the true effects of school-based interventions.

SummaryThe government's Public Health White Paper for England sets out a utopian vision of how to prevent and remedy mental health problems. The public health approach relies on primary prevention, promoting individual responsibilities and resilience, while also sustaining existing services and tackling inequalities. These ambitions are consistent with the preventive psychiatric paradigm, and with the best of evidence-based psychiatric practice. Although the evidence on cost-effectiveness of public mental health interventions is growing, the challenge is to ensure that specialist knowledge informs policy, practice and research so that inequalities are not compounded. Specialist mental health professionals are needed to inform and lead public health reforms.

This study aims to optimize health leadership in preventing Covid-19 from an early age in the village. The author believes that health status is determined by treatment; prevention can be more effective and efficient. We collect public health literature from many databases of public health publications. We start from the journal Esavier, Medpub, Google Book, and several websites that discuss public health issues at home and abroad. We are targeting based data published in the last ten years to find the latest data and validity. The research involves a data coding system, high evaluation, and conclusion drawing in order to be able to answer research questions with high reliability. We conclude that health leadership is characteristic of how medical roles lead people to health. Value health and maintain it until community members find physical and mental health. The medical team minimizes stress by communicating openly and creating a healthy and safe environment for its citizens' creative thinking and expression. These results are helpful for the development of literature and public health applications.

Abstract:
The rapid growth and diffusion of digital media technologies has changed the landscape of market segmentation in the last two decades, including its use in promoting prosocial and behavior change. New, population-specific and culturally appropriate prevention strategies can leverage the potential of digital media to influence health outcomes, especially for the greatest users of digital technology, including youth and young adults. Health behavior change campaigns are increasingly shifting resources to social media, creating opportunities for innovative interventions and new research methods. This article examines three case studies of digital segmentation: (1) tobacco control from the Truth Initiative, (2) community-based public health programs from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and (3) substance use (including opioids) and other risk behavior prevention from Public Good Projects. These case studies of recent digital segmentation efforts in the not-for-profit, government, and academic sectors show that it increases reach and frequency of messages delivered to priority populations. The practice of digital segmentation is rapidly growing, shows early signs of effectiveness, and may enhance future public health campaigns. Additional research could optimize its use and effectiveness in promoting prosocial and behavior change campaign outcomes.

Community collaboration in research may lead to better methods, results, and dissemination of interventions. Little systematic research has examined specific factors that influence community-based organizations (CBOs) to collaborate in public health research. There is an urgent need to advance knowledge on this topic so that together, researchers and CBOs can minimize barriers to collaboration. This study advances a CBOfocused characterization of collaboration in HIV-prevention research. By focusing on the perspectives of 20 key informants in 10 HIV-prevention CBOs, qualitative data revealed factors that influenced their collaborations in four domains: (a) Researchers’ Characteristics (expertise, availability), (b) Collaborative Research Characteristics (ought to improve services and CBO infrastructure); (c) Community Partner—Researcher Relationships (resolving social and professional issues); and (d) Barriers to HIV-Prevention Research Collaboration (cultural and social disconnect between CBO and academia). To reduce barriers, researchers ought to enhance motivators that facilitate collaboration. To use the advantages of community-based research, prevention scientists and policy makers ought to embrace CBOs’ characterization of what makes health research genuinely collaborative.

Abstract:
A significant portion of the deaths in the United States could have been prevented or postponed using known interventions. One reason this did not occur is because medical science and medical education are disease, not health, oriented. Since physicians are at the center of the health care delivery system, their disease orientation pervades the industry. Historically, there have been calls for physicians to focus more on disease prevention; however, medical education does not teach disease prevention/health promotion. There are several reasons for this: 1) medical school faculty conceptual discordance between “certainty” of curative disease vs. the “probability” of risk factor reduction; 2) gaps in the knowledge of effective interventions; 3) the concept that health promotion/disease prevention are outside the province of physicians; 4) the significant role of biomedical research grants on medical school funding; 5) the close association of medical education and the acute care hospital; and 6) the use of rote memory/lecture based teaching methods of traditional medicine vs. the problem-based learning necessary to teach disease prevention/health promotion. Some medical schools have begun to use problem based learning and to introduce health promotion concepts. Widespread and long-lasting change requires support of the leadership in medical schools and the preventive medicine/public health community, and grant funding from state and federal sources to support research on medical education research and change.

Abstract:
It is an important research field related to the national economy and the people’s livelihood to establish and improve the crisis early warning management of public health emergencies and improve the timeliness and accuracy of prediction and early warning. The outbreak and spread of infectious diseases is a typical complex system composed of etiology, host, and environment. From the perspective of complex network, this paper combines infectious disease dynamics with biostatistics and simulation, analyze the transmission characteristics and process of infectious diseases on complex networks, and simulate the implementation effect of various prevention and control measures. It seeks the optimal strategy for its prevention and control, so as to provide decision-making basis for the study of infectious disease emergencies. And it simulates the evolution process of social contact network driven by people's daily behavior. The results show that the transmission speed of infectious diseases in home networks is significantly lower than that in public networks. Through simulation analysis and effect evaluation, good results have been achieved, which can provide accurate and rapid decision-making for emergency managers. It proves the feasibility of the model. This study provides a new research perspective for infectious disease prevention and control.
