Abstract Purpose To analyze information needs of the Russian public health professionals Methods Statistical, sociological, bibliometrics and content analysis Objectives To analyze results of a survey of information needs of public health professionals; To analyze requests by public health professionals; To present topics and types of information resources needed by public health professionals Results public health professionals usually prepare informational and analytical reports and reviews for decision-makers. Therefore, it is important to understand what issues this group of information consumers is interested in, as well as what information resources they may need. To address this purpose, the authors have surveyed this group of specialists and analyzed their requests for information submitted to WHO Documentation Center in the Russian Federation. The results obtained made it possible to define major information needs of Russian public health professionals. By topics, they are arranged as follows: analysis and trends in mortality by age and cause of death; analysis and trends in fertility; analysis of information resources on healthy lifestyles, physical activity, healthy diet an risk factors, as well as analysis of international experience and comparisons. Distribution by information resources used by the public health professionals: Russian collections of statistical data, National report on health; articles from Russian journals on public health and nutrition; statistical databases of the World Health Organization; Eurostat; WHO reports on different public health issues (tobacco control, excessive alcohol consumption, obesity and unhealthy diet, etc.); WHO/Europe reports on health and well-being; WHO evidence reports on public health problems; PubMed - articles on public health questions; Cochrane library, etc. Key messages This poster presents the results of a study of the information needs of public health professionals. The study was conducted by interviewing these specialists at conferences and seminars.

As systems become more capable of transmitting and aggregating data, new analytic methods promise both a deeper understanding of population needs and new ways of bringing actionable data to the point of care. These techniques will be critical as payment for care migrates from fee-for-service models to episodic and risk-based bundles. The growing integration of data measuring social determinants will help both delivery and public health professionals gain new insights into richer, more meaningful, and more effective means of care. The combination of new data, new analytics, and technologies capable of penetrating to every point of decision-making promise to foster innovative and meaningful approaches to patient care.

Background: The relationship between oral health and general health is gaining interest in geriatric research; however, a lack of studies dealing with this issue from a general perspective makes it somewhat inaccessible to non-clinical public health professionals. Purpose: The purpose of this review is to describe the relationship between oral health and general health of the elderly on the basis of literature review, and to give non-clinical medical professionals and public health professionals an overview of this discipline. Methods: This study was based on an in-depth review of the literature pertaining to the relationship between oral health and general health among the older people. The tools commonly used to evaluate dental health and the academic researches of male elderly people were also reviewed. And future research directions were summarized. Results: Dental caries, periodontal disease, edentulism, and xerostomia are common oral diseases among the older people. Dental caries and periodontal diseases are the leading causes of missing teeth and edentulism. Xerostomia, similar to dry mouth, is another common oral health disease in the older people. No clear correlation exists between the subjective feeling of dryness and an objective decrease of saliva. Rather, both conditions can be explained by changes in saliva. The General Oral Health Assessment Index (GOHAI) and the Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP) are the main assessment tools used to examine oral health and quality of life in the older people. The GOHAI tends to be more sensitive to objective values pertaining to oral function. In addition, oral health studies in male elderly people are population-based cohort or cross-sectional studies, involving masticatory function, oral prevention, frailty problems, cardiovascular disease risk, and cognitive status. Conclusion: It is possible to reduce the incidence of certain oral diseases, even among individuals who take oral health care seriously. Oral health care should be based on the viewpoint of comprehensive treatment, including adequate nutrition, good life and psychology, and correct oral health care methods. In the future, researchers could combine the results of meta-analysis with the clinical experience of doctors to provide a more in-depth and broader discussion on oral health research topics concerning the older people.

Abstract Education is a key to creating solidary among the professionals who advance public health’s interdisciplinary mission. Our assumption is that if all those who work in public health shared core knowledge and the skills for interdisciplinary interaction, collaboration across disciplines, venues, and countries would be facilitated. Evaluation of education is an essential element of pedagogy to ensure quality and consistency across boundaries, as articulated by the UNESCO education standards. Our study examined the evaluation studies done by programs that educate public health professionals. We searched the peer reviewed literature published in English between 2000-2017 pertaining to the education of the public health workforce at a degree-granting level. The 2442 articles found covered ten health professions disciplines and had lead authors representing all continents. Only 86 articles focused on evaluation. The majority of the papers examined either a single course, a discipline-specific curriculum or a teaching method. No consistent methodologies could be discerned. Methods ranged from sophisticated regression analyses and trends tracked over time to descriptions of focus groups and interviews of small samples. We found that evaluations were primarily discipline-specific, lacked rigorous methodology in many instances, and that relatively few examined competencies or career expectations. The public health workforce enjoys a diversity of disciplines but must be able to come together to share diverse knowledge and skills. Evaluation is critical to achieving a workforce that is well trained in the competencies pertinent to collaboration. This study informs the pedagogical challenges that must be confronted going forward, starting with a commitment to shared core competencies and to consistent and rigorous evaluation of the education related to training public health professionals. Key messages Rigorous evaluation is not sufficiently used to enhance the quality of public health education. More frequent use of rigorous evaluation in public health education would enhance the quality of public health workforce, and enable cross-disciplinary and international collaboration for solidarity.
