Celebrate World Sleep Day On March 13 To Advance Sleep Health Worldwide

(1888 PressRelease) Join World Sleep Day and contribute to improve and facilitate sleep health around the world.

World Sleep Society is issuing a global call to action about the importance of healthy sleep. Friday, March 13, 2020 is the 13th annual World Sleep Day®. Created and hosted by World Sleep Society, World Sleep Day is an internationally recognized awareness event bringing researchers, health professionals and patients together to recognize sleep and its important impact on our health.

World Sleep Day 2020 will incorporate the slogan, ‘Better Sleep, Better Life, Better Planet,' highlighting sleep's important place as a pillar of health, allowing for better decision making and cognitive understanding in even big issues, such as our planet. This focus is purposefully broad in meaning, surrounding the message that quality of life can be improved with healthy sleep. Conversely, when sleep fails, health declines, decreasing quality of life. Sound sleep is a treasured function. World Sleep Society has compiled ten tips for healthier sleep. These recommendations for children and adults can be viewed on worldsleepday.org under resources.

Dr. Liborio Parrino is Chair of the World Sleep Day Committee. Dr. Parrino expresses, “If we really want to contribute to the planet’s survival, a wise activity is to extend the period of our sleep time. That’s why this year’s World Sleep Day slogan connects good sleep to improved planet health.” Increased sleep periods mean less consumption of fuel, electricity, food and oxygen (breathing is attenuated during sleep). Better quality sleep also reduces the risk of labor-related and road accidents, promotes the secretion of melatonin and protects the natural circadian clock, which can prevent premature aging in humans. Dr. Parrino adds, “Extending our sleep period also improves our mental and body performances during the day and, last but not least, enhances our dreaming experience, as REM stages are mostly concentrated in the final portion of sleep, which is often curtailed by the urging rules of modern life.”

Phyllis C. Zee, MD, PhD, Professor of Neurology and Director of the Center for Circadian and Sleep Medicine at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine goes on to suggest, “Actions we can take include prioritizing sleep with exercise and nutrition, maintaining regular sleep and wake timing, averaging 7-9 hours of sleep duration and if suffering from a chronic sleep disturbance, by discussing sleep with your doctor.” Over the past decade, there have been major advances in our understanding of neural mechanisms, linking the important relationship between sleep and cognitive health. Mounting evidence indicates that sleep is an active process in which recently-encoded memories are consolidated and transferred for long-term storage. Dr. Zee adds, “Sleep enhances the ability to remove waste products from the brain—which can harm brain function.”

Professor Fang Han, MD of The Sleep Center, Peking University People’s Hospital in Beijing, China states, “Sleep is important for one’s cognitive health. Sleep can restore your brain function in many aspects, such as learning, memory, and mood.” Sleep disorders may cause impairment of a person’s oxygen supply, disturb your immunological system, or damage your brain structure. Dr. Han states, “World Sleep Day is an opportunity to be aware, sleep regularly, sleep enough, and treat sleep disorders.”

CALL TO ACTION
To participate in World Sleep Day, consider:
• Organizing an event to create excitement and generate interest in World Sleep Day.
• Circulating the official press release with sleep experts and local media.
• Distributing sleep patient literature such as booklets, leaflets and newsletters.

GLOBAL PARTNERSHIPS
The 13th Annual World Sleep Day has partnered with Arianna Huffington’s Thrive Global and AmLife. More sponsors will be included before March.

Arianna Huffington, founder and CEO of Thrive Global says, “Sleep is central to every aspect of our well-being—our physical health, our mental health, our productivity and our decision-making. Our world is facing huge crises on multiple fronts, and we need all the resilience, wisdom and sound decision-making we can muster. We can’t take care of our world if we don’t take care of ourselves—and that begins with sleep.”

Mr. Lew Mun Yee, the founder of AmLife states, “AmLife is fully devoted in the noble mission of World Sleep Society in advocating better-quality sleep in mankind. AmLife proudly joins the call for Better Sleep, Better Life, Better Planet, this year’s World Sleep Day theme. AmLife’s new tagline—Life. Redefined.—dovetails the 2020 theme. With better quality of sleep, life certainly can be redefined.”

Increase in Prevalence of HIV Infection Expected to Drive Global HIV Vaccines Market over the Forecast Period: Ken Research

Human Immunodeficiency Virus or HIV is a harmful virus that can result in even taking the life of an individual infected. HIV vaccine is an ultimate prevention and control strategy for AIDS. The primary concept behind all HIV vaccines is to encourage the human immune system to fight HIV. The vaccine could be effective in either of two ways including “preventive” vaccine and “therapeutic” vaccines. Preventive HIV vaccine is given to individual who do not have HIV, and therapeutic HIV vaccine is given to individual who already have HIV. The goal of a therapeutic HIV vaccine is to strengthen a patient’s immune response to the HIV that is already in the patient’s body. Researchers are discovering the use of therapeutic HIV vaccines to eliminate the need for antiretroviral therapy (ART) while still keeping imperceptible levels of HIV and to slow down the progression of HIV infection.

According to study, “Global HIV Vaccines Market Size study, by Type (Acute Paronychia, Chronic Paronychia, Candidal Paronychia, Pyogenic Paronychia), By Antibiotics (Mupirocin Ointment, Fusidic Acid Ointment, Gentamicin Ointment, Dicloxacillin, Others) and Regional Forecasts 2018-2025” the key companies operating in the global HIV vaccines market are AlphaVax, Bionor Pharmaceuticals Asa, Antigen Express, Crucell Pharmaceutical, Argo Therapeutic Inc., Genetic Immunity, Celldex Therapeutics, GeoVax Labs, FIT Biotech, Immune Response Biopharma, GeneCure LLC, Inovio Pharmaceuticals Inc., GenVec Inc., GlaxoSmithKline Plc., Novartis, Oncolys Biopharma, Janssen Global Services LLC, Profectus Biosciences, PaxVax Corp., TVAX Biomedical, Sanofi.

Based on type, market is segmented into acute paronychia, candidal paronychia, chronic paronychia and pyogenic paronychia. In acute paronychia, the causative organisms are generally Staphylococcus aureus or streptococci and, less commonly Pseudomonas or Proteus species. Based on route of administration, market is segmented into oral administration, intramuscular & subcutaneous administration and others. Based on antibiotics, market is segmented into mupirocin ointment, gentamicin ointment, fusidic acid ointment, dicloxacillin, and others. In addition, based on application, market is segmented into research institutes and others.

The market is driven by increase in prevalence of HIV infection due to prostitution, followed by rise in infectious diseases, increase in expenditure on research & development (R&D), rise in company initiatives to enhance vaccine research & development (R&D), growth in non-governmental organizations to help the remote areas where medicine cannot reach, rise in number of new entrants in the market and growth in awareness among people about HIV. However, growth in number of trial failure and expensive & multifaceted studies may impact the market. Moreover, increase in number of new entrants and high growth prospects in emerging markets are key opportunities for market.

Based on geography, the North-American is the leading region in HIV vaccines market owing to presence of new technologies and higher adoption of various HIV Vaccines trials in the region. The European and Asian-Pacific regions are also estimated to witness higher growth rate due to rise in prevalence of HIV diseases, growth in government support for vaccine development and increase in healthcare sectors over the forecast period. It is expected that the market will be reached at fast speed as a result of rise in government initiatives to promote vaccines during the forecast period.

Embracing BIM Maximizes ROI for AEC Professionals

Building Information Modeling (BIM) is revolutionizing the construction workflow across the globe through its digital representation technique of producing physical and functional facets of buildings, utilities, and roads. Sukh Singh , Vice-President of Tejjy Inc stated that this modern-day technology incorporates multiple computer aided design specifications for project delivery and enhances collaboration at workflow.  He added that BIM enthralls the construction industry with diversity by facilitating with deliverables for every stage of design development till the final construction phase. The digitized pipeline of 3D, 4D, 5D, 6D, and 7D BIM has improved the efficacy of the construction process, by reducing the inbuilt complexities of the conventional procedure.

                                        Industry-wise BIM Adoption Scenario

A recent report confirms that industry-wise BIM adoption has grown from 28% to 71% by 2012, with 50% overall productivity gain generating a rise in increased adoption trends.

As reflected by the report generated below, the ratio of architect in adopting BIM has been mostly in comparison to engineer, contractor and building homeowners.

BIM Service Providers Fostering Journey into Digital BIM

Committed to meet the BIM requirement of the AEC industry, BIM service providers are fostering their  journey through virtual reality, drone, GEO BIM, and 3D printers, to achieve enhanced productivity.

Building Information Modeling service providers work with architects, MEP engineers, and design firms to assist them in their design development process. The proficient BIM engineers understand the client design-intent and provide value-added support with the design evolution starting from the conceptual and schematic stages to the final construction. Expert engineers then translate designer's thoughts and include the information in the form of 2D drawings and 3D models as per LOD (Level of Detailing) standards ranging from LOD 100 to LOD 500. 3D models created with a higher level of detailing facilitate project managers in making informed decisions by accessing Revit Families.

Facilitating the Chance of Winning Construction Projects 

Adoption of appropriate category of BIM from 2D to 7D expedite the chance of winning construction projects. By using the Revit 3D Modeling tool implementation can be done as per the requirements.

  • 2D/3D BIM envisions the problems with digital modeling solutions through 3D animation, rendering, visualization, and walk-through.
  • 4D BIM supports the construction industry by generating a coherent environment for architects, contractors, and other project stakeholders.
  • 5D BIM assists construction project stakeholders in creating real-time conceptual modeling and cost analysis.
  • 6D BIM technology caters to the construction industry with sustainable and energy-efficient models to support decision making from the conception to design and construction to operation.
  • 7D BIM facilitates effective facility management and maintenance.

Maximizing ROI (Return of Investment), minimizing risk and conflicts through clash detection and resolution at the pre-construction stage, the extensive adoption of Revit BIM has channelized AEC project workflow. The residential, commercial, industrial, infrastructure, educational, and mixed used construction projects enable to visualize schematic structures for improved project planning.

The Construction Management and BIM companies are facilitating design visualization through virtual mock-ups generating effective building design verification, ensuring the architectural design meets the clients’ expectations. The experience and competence of building information modeling experts allow the ease & fidelity of transporting Revit BIM to 3DS Max significantly, reducing the cost and the time of production. The detail personified in BIM ensures visualization is an accurate reflection of the architect's vision. 

Future with BIM

BIM scope is extending towards making a thermal analysis of the building. Benchmarking energy use across buildings is now a necessity for AEC firms while designing structures. Using Revit's advanced features of Solar Study and Thermal Analysis, BIM can do wonders in this segment. According to Market Research Engine Report BIM industry is determined to reach the value of $13.2 billion by the end of 2024. Tejjy Inc. envisions to be part of his billion-dollar industry by meeting their clients' requirements with the customized solution by adopting 3D, 4D, 5D, 6D and 7D BIM techniques.
