Tobacco, Alcohol and global mortality

Each year, seven in 10 deaths globally are from non-communicable diseases (NCDs), mostly from tobacco and alcohol use, unhealthy diets and physical inactivity, the World Health Organisation (WHO) has said. WHO said while launching the Independent Global High-level Commission on NCDs that bold and innovative solutions were now on the table to accelerate the prevention and control of deadly NCDs. The UN health agency said such non-communicable were heart and lung disease, cancers and diabetes. Tabaré Vázquez, President of Uruguay and co-chair of new WHO high-profile panel said: “NCDs are the world’s leading avoidable killers. “But the world is not doing enough to prevent and control them.

Wants to reduce burnout, Tackle system problems.. says expert

Clinician burnout is a systemic, multifactorial problem that requires a systemic, multifactorial solution and an industrywide call to arms, key opinion leaders and experts stress in a pair of articles published January 25 in the New England Journal of Medicine . A recent Medscape survey , for example, found that 42% of physicians report burnout. The new reports, however, suggest healthcare organizations and advocacy groups are beginning to take action.
