Norm diffusion in global health governance: the role of think tanks by Fan Wang, Yiwen Zhang, Yuhang Chen, Yimeng Wu

“…As think tanks combine policy expertise with sharp responsiveness to emerging crises, this study investigates their specific role in global health governance, thereby providing a comprehensive understanding of their contribution to the norm diffusion mechanism.Methods We collected reports from 12 globally representative think tanks, covering the period from 15 June 2007 to 31 December 2022. Using the R programming language, we employed both quantitative and qualitative methods, including structural topic modelling and co-occurrence analysis, to identify topic priorities and correlations between key terms.Results Globally, think tank discussions on health governance norms centre on four primary areas: the global economy and trade, responses to infectious diseases and public health crises, cooperation and aid in global health governance, and the social impacts of health norms. …”

Crosstalk between hypertension and diabetes: focusing on pregnancy and offspring. A systematic review by Medina-Hernández Alejandra, Espinosa-Tanguma Ricardo, Donjuán-Loredo Guadalupe

“…Several mechanisms such as structural changes in the arterial wall, endoplasmic reticulum (RE) stress, increase in ROS and decrease in nitric oxide (NO) synthesis are proposed as some of the possible culprits.ConclusionCurrent evidence shows that the interaction between DM and HT occurs through mechanisms that they share in their pathogenesis, that is, the presence of one lead to the other and the hyperglycemia to which infants are exposed in utero makes them more susceptible to CVD.…”
