Community Based Intervention01:30

Community Based Intervention

288
Community-based interventions in mental health represent a paradigm shift from institution-centered care to treatments embedded within the fabric of local communities. By prioritizing inclusion and leveraging existing societal structures, this approach fosters a supportive environment conducive to addressing mental health challenges while promoting individual dignity and agency.

Vision01:24

Vision

59.5K
Vision is the result of light being detected and transduced into neural signals by the retina of the eye. This information is then further analyzed and interpreted by the brain. First, light enters the front of the eye and is focused by the cornea and lens onto the retina—a thin sheet of neural tissue lining the back of the eye. Because of refraction through the convex lens of the eye, images are projected onto the retina upside-down and reversed.

Color Vision

Color perception begins in the retina, the light-sensitive layer at the back of the eye. Two main theories explain how colors are seen: the trichromatic theory and the opponent-process theory. The trichromatic theory, proposed by Thomas Young in 1802 and extended by Hermann von Helmholtz in 1852, suggests that color vision is based on three types of cone receptors in the retina. These cones are sensitive to different but overlapping ranges of wavelengths corresponding to red, blue, and green.

Fischer Projections02:18

Fischer Projections

16.4K
Learning to draw Fischer projections of molecules and understanding their relevance plays a crucial role in the visual depiction of organic molecules. A Fischer projection is a two-dimensional projection on a planar surface to simplify the three-dimensional wedge–dash representation of molecules. This is especially helpful in the case of molecules with multiple chiral centers that can be difficult to draw. Here, all the bonds of interest are represented as horizontal or vertical lines. While...

Newman Projections

Different notations are used to represent the three-dimensional structure of molecules on two-dimensional surfaces. One of the most commonly used representations is the dash-wedge formula. The dashed wedges, solid wedges, and the plane lines indicate the groups situated behind the plane, coming out of the plane, and in the plane, respectively.
The organic molecules rotate across the single bonds leading to numerous temporary three-dimensional structures of varying energy known as...

    Area of Science:

    • Public health initiatives
    • Pediatric ophthalmology
    • Vision screening technology

    Background:

    • Early detection of vision impairments in preschoolers is crucial for preventing long-term vision loss.
    • Access to specialized screening equipment in pediatric settings can be a barrier to comprehensive eye care.
    • The Naples Lions Amblyopia Elimination Project aimed to address this gap.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To determine if improved access to instrument-based screening equipment increases the number of high-quality, age-appropriate vision screenings for preschool-aged children.
    • To evaluate the effectiveness of a community-based program in enhancing vision screening provision.

    Main Methods:

    • The Naples Lions Amblyopia Elimination Project distributed SPOT Vision Screeners to pediatric medical homes.
    • Participating clinics provided data on screening numbers, referrals, and outcomes.
    • The study tracked the adoption of screening equipment in pediatric practices over time.

    Main Results:

    • Instrument-based vision screening equipment use in pediatric medical homes increased from 4 in 2012 to 19 by 2017.
    • The percentage of pediatric medical homes utilizing SPOT Vision Screeners rose to 76% in 2017.
    • In 2017, 6,052 preschool children received screenings through this program.

    Conclusions:

    • Facilitating access to vision screening equipment demonstrably increased the provision of essential eye care services for young children.
    • This philanthropic model represents an innovative approach to eliminating preventable vision loss in the pediatric population.
    • The project highlights the success of community-based efforts in improving child vision health outcomes.
