The inclusion AMR on global map parallels scientific, technological, and organizational progress healthcare system socioeconomic changes last 100 years. Available knowledge about has mostly come from large institutions in high-income countries scattered studies across various fields, focused patient safety (infectious diseases), transmission pathways pathogen reservoirs (molecular epidemiology), extent problem at a population level (public health), their management cost (health economics), cultural issues (community psychology), events associated with historical periods (history science). However, there little dialogue between aspects that facilitate development, spread, evolution stakeholders (patients, clinicians, public health professionals, scientists, economic sectors, funding agencies). This study consists four complementary sections. first reviews factors have contributed to building current Healthcare system, scientific framework which traditionally been approached such novel approaching fourth globalization scenario. second discusses need reframe contexts.

Frontiers in Public Health, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 11

Published: June 29, 2023

Recurrent outbreaks of zoonotic infectious diseases highlight the importance considering interconnections between human, animal, and environmental health in disease prevention control. This has given rise to concept One Health, which recognizes interconnectedness human animal within their ecosystems. As a contribution Health approach, this study aims develop an indicator system model facilitation spread diseases. Initially, literature review was conducted using Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) statement identify relevant indicators related Health. The selected focused on demographics, socioeconomic aspects, interactions populations water bodies, as well conditions air quality climate. These were characterized values obtained from or calculated through distance analysis, geoprocessing tasks, other methods. Subsequently, Multi-Criteria Decision-Making (MCDM) techniques, specifically Entropy Technique Order Preference by Similarity Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) methods, utilized combine create composite metric assessing final then tested against recorded zoonoses Valencian Community (Spain) 2021, strong positive correlation identified. Therefore, proposed can be valuable guiding development planning strategies that align with principles.

Medically important pathogenic fungi invade vertebrate tissue and are considered primary when part of their nature life cycle is associated with an animal host usually able to infect immunocompetent hosts. Opportunistic fungal pathogens complete in environmental habitats or occur as commensals within on the body, but under certain conditions can thrive upon infecting humans. The extent damage opportunistic infections largely depends portal modality entry well host's immune metabolic status. Diseases caused by common opportunists, causing top approximately 80% diseases [D. W.

One Health is a collaborative approach that can be used to evaluate and enhance the sectors of human health, animal health environmental emphasize their sectoral interconnectedness. Empirical evaluation one performance country in form an index provides direction for actionable interventions such as targeted funding; prioritized resource allocation; rigorous data management evidence-based policy decisions, amid other efforts public engagement awareness disease management; degradation preparedness towards outbreaks thereby strengthening global security. Thus, developing Index (OHI) Calculator India significant step governance context low-and middle-income countries. a) To develop with efficient ease use weighting methods demonstrate calculation Index. b) India- country-specific datasets through secondary collection from reliable sources. c) determine gaps stewardship. We propose calculator measure Indian by adopting Global framework comprises 3 categories, 13 key indicators, 57 indicators 216 sub-indicators. A was conducted create dataset For measuring OHI, we have demonstrated two mathematical weightage methods, expert-based rating using Fuzzy Extent Analysis (FEA) Modified Entropy-based Method (MEWM). step-by-step OHI determining indicator scores both FEA MEWM methods. Through country- specific has been created From India, values 156 out sub-indicators were found available, while there lack remaining 60 indicators. Further, pilot correlation analysis performed between 20 relevant budget allocations years 2022-2023, 2023-2024, 2024-2025. It increase over consecutive shown score or better vice versa. The scope serve tool, promoting transparency ethical management. There need federation resolve incomplete, missing unavailable data.
