How Race, Age and Gender Shape Attitudes Towards Mental HealthThinkNow

Mental health has been in the news quite a bit lately. Dozens of U.S. states are currently suing Meta for contributing to the youth mental health crisis by inserting addictive features into their products, while the U.S. Surgeon General is touring the nation to bring awareness to the growing epidemic of loneliness and isolation. The country has endured periods of low national morale, such as in the 1970s when high inflation and the energy crisis worsened public sentiment following the Vietnam War. The current mood, however, feels different. Gallup recently reported that national mental health is at an all-time low, with few bright spots to lift spirits. To better understand how Americans are feeling and their attitudes towards mental health in general, ThinkNow conducted a nationally representative quantitative survey of 1,500 respondents and found some interesting differences among ethnic, age and gender groups. Technology For example, 52% agree that technology and social media have a negative impact on mental health, but when broken out by race, 61% of Whites felt technology had a negative effect, and only 48% of Hispanics thought it did. While technology has helped us keep in touch with friends and family in faraway places, it appears to have degraded our ability to connect in person. Staying connected online is a double-edged sword since the same news feed that brings us pictures of the grandkids and fluffy kittens also feeds us news about the wars in Israel and Ukraine, the dysfunction in Washington, the latest mass shooting and the climate crisis. Hispanics may have a built-in defense against the isolation technology breeds, owing to their large, multigenerational households, strong social support systems, and tendency to use social media to stay connected with relatives abroad. Age and Gender When asked how individuals rate their mental health, men rate it higher than women by 11 percentage points, and Baby Boomers rank it highest at 83%, saying it’s good or excellent vs. 57% of Gen Z saying the same. Gen Z spends the most amount of time on social media, so the notion that social media negatively affects mental health appears to be correlated. Unfortunately, Gen Z is also the generation that’s least comfortable discussing mental health concerns with healthcare professionals. Only 40% of them state they’re comfortable discussing their issues with a professional compared to 60% of Millennials and 65% of Boomers. Race Affects Attitudes As seen in previous research conducted by ThinkNow, Asian Americans lag other groups when it comes to awareness of mental health issues. Twenty-four percent of Asian Americans believe that having a mental health issue is a sign of weakness compared to the 16% average for all groups. Asians are also considerably less likely to be aware of mental health services in their communities (42% vs. 55%) and most likely to seek out information on social media (51% vs. 35%).

Electronic Skin for Prosthetics, Enabling Tactile Feedback and Realistic Huma...ganeshdukare428

As the field of prosthetics evolves beyond mechanical function into realms of sensory integration and human-machine symbiosis, electronic skin (e-skin) is emerging as a groundbreaking innovation. Designed to emulate the sensory capabilities of human skin, e-skin brings the long-standing dream of restoring touch to amputees and individuals with limb differences closer to reality. By replicating the sense of touch — including pressure, temperature, and vibration — electronic skin allows prosthetic limbs to deliver realistic, real-time tactile feedback. This not only enhances the functionality of prosthetics but also significantly improves user experience, emotional connection, and control precision, heralding a new chapter in biomedical engineering.

Infection Prevention and Control (IPC) NABH-6-STD-Jan-2025.pdfDr Jitu Lal Meena

Infection prevention and control involves practices and policies to minimize the risk of healthcare-associated infections (HAIs). Key strategies include hand hygiene, personal protective equipment (PPE) use, proper cleaning and disinfection, and safe handling of biomedical waste. Antimicrobial stewardship and vaccination programs also play a crucial role. Effective infection prevention and control requires a multidisciplinary approach, ongoing education and training, and continuous monitoring and evaluation. By implementing these measures, healthcare organizations can reduce the risk of HAIs, improve patient outcomes, and promote a safe and healthy environment for patients, staff, and visitors. Regular updates and guidelines are essential.
