重点摘要
1. 医学的演变：从古代信仰到现代科学
医学在时间的熔炉中，逐渐演变成一个高度官僚化和政治化的社会体系。
古代起源。 医学的历史是一段从魔法与宗教信仰走向现代科学认知的旅程。早期的医疗实践与迷信紧密相连，将疾病归因于愤怒的神灵或恶灵。各文化发展出独特的体系，如印度的阿育吠陀和中国的传统医学，强调平衡与和谐。
希腊与罗马的影响。 希腊人在希波克拉底的引领下，转向临床观察和理性方法，摒弃了超自然的解释。罗马人则注重实用，强调通过卫生设施和基础建设来维护公共健康。
现代革命。 文艺复兴时期，科学探究复兴，帕拉塞尔苏斯和维萨里等人物挑战旧有教条。19世纪的卫生觉醒，由查德威克和西蒙推动，促成公共卫生法案，关注环境因素。巴斯德和科赫的细菌学说彻底改变了我们对疾病成因的认识，为预防医学和现代医疗进步奠定基础。
2. 健康的理解：多维度的概念
健康是身体、心理和社会的完全良好状态，而不仅仅是没有疾病或虚弱。
超越生物医学。 健康不仅是无病状态，还涵盖身体、心理、社会乃至精神层面。单纯将身体视为机器的生物医学概念，难以应对复杂的健康问题。
生态与心理社会因素。 生态概念强调人与环境之间的动态平衡，心理社会概念则认识到社会、心理、文化、经济和政治因素对健康的影响。整体模型整合了这些方面，将健康视为涉及整个人的统一过程。
新理念。 健康是基本人权，是实现高效生活和社会经济发展的基础。它跨部门，涉及个人、国家及国际责任，是全球性的社会目标。
3. 健康的衡量：指标及其意义
指标只是对某一状况的指示或反映。
死亡率与发病率。 衡量健康需借助指标评估群体健康状况。死亡指标如粗死亡率、预期寿命和婴儿死亡率，揭示死亡模式。发病指标如发病率和患病率，反映疾病负担。
残疾与福祉。 残疾率，包括健康调整寿命（HALE）和伤残调整生命年（DALYs），体现疾病和伤害对日常生活的影响。福祉指标如生活水平和生活质量，提供更广泛的健康视角。
科学严谨性。 理想指标应具备有效性、可靠性、敏感性、特异性、可行性和相关性，但现实中少有指标能兼具。需采用多维指标组合，全面评估健康。
4. 健康决定因素：塑造福祉的因素
健康状况部分取决于人的遗传构成。
生物基础。 遗传基因影响身体和心理特征，决定对某些疾病的易感性。医学遗传学为预防和治疗带来希望，但仍有广阔领域待探索。
生活方式与环境。 行为和社会文化条件，如饮食、运动和个人习惯，对健康影响显著。内外环境同样关键，涵盖住房、水源、心理社会压力及社会支持系统等因素。
社会经济与政治影响。 经济状况、教育和职业等社会经济条件是健康的重要决定因素。政治体制通过资源分配和政策制定，影响社区卫生服务。
5. 健康生态学：人与环境的关系
根据生态学概念，健康被视为人与环境之间的动态平衡状态。
人类作为生态系统的一部分。 理解健康需将人类视为生态系统的一环，涵盖自然环境和人造环境，包括物理、化学、生物和心理层面，以及文化及其产物。
疾病植根于生态系统。 疾病根植于人类生态系统，城市化、工业化和森林砍伐等环境改变带来新的健康问题。生态因素是疾病地理分布的根源。
良好的公共卫生即良好的生态。 通过生态或环境干预预防疾病，比其他控制方法更安全、经济且有效。理解并调整有利于疾病发生的人类生态因素，是改善健康的关键。
6. 健康权利：个人、社区与国家的责任
人民的健康应由人民自己关心。
基本人权。 健康是基本人权，是实现高效生活的必要条件，不仅仅是医疗支出的结果。它涉及个人、社区和国家，是全球社会目标。
个人责任。 自我保健活动，如饮食、睡眠、运动和个人卫生，对促进健康和预防疾病至关重要。个人必须承担自身健康的责任。
社区与国家角色。 社区应积极参与健康事务，国家则有责任提供免费医疗服务和专业教育。社区参与健康服务的规划、组织和管理至关重要。
7. 疾病成因：从细菌学说到多因素模型
医学最终脱去迷信与教条的旧衣，披上科学知识的新袍。
细菌学说。 巴斯德和科赫推广的细菌学说，彻底改变了疾病成因的认识，聚焦微生物为主要原因，推动细菌学和特定疾病控制的发展。
超越单一原因。 细菌学说虽开创性，但无法解释慢性病或感染反应差异。流行病学三要素——病原体、宿主和环境，提供更广阔视角，认识多因素相互作用。
多因素成因。 现代医学接受多因素成因观念，承认社会、经济、遗传、环境和心理因素在疾病病因中的作用。“因果网络”模型展示这些因素复杂的相互关系，提供多重干预点。
8. 流行病学方法：研究疾病的工具
流行病学的基本方法是进行比较并推断因果。
描述性流行病学。 描述性研究关注疾病在时间、地点和人群中的分布，定义人群和疾病，测量发生率，为病因提供线索。
分析性流行病学。 分析性研究检验病因假设，识别潜在原因或风险因素。病例对照研究比较病例与对照的既往暴露，队列研究随访群体确定疾病发生率。
实验性流行病学。 实验研究如随机对照试验，主动干预疾病决定因素，提供病因学证据，评估卫生服务效果。
9. 传染病流行病学：传播与控制
人类健康的最大改善，来自于理解和改变有利于疾病在人类生态系统中发生的因素。
传播链。 传染病从储存宿主或源头传给易感宿主。理解传播动态需识别病原体、储存宿主、传播方式和易感宿主。
控制措施。 控制措施针对储存宿主、中断传播、保护易感宿主，包括早期诊断、报告、隔离、治疗、卫生、媒介控制和免疫接种。
监测与根除。 监测对发现疾病趋势变化和指导控制活动至关重要。根除即终止所有传播，是终极目标，但需持续努力和针对性策略。
10. 非传染性疾病：全球日益严峻的挑战
健康的真正进步，关键在于基于初级卫生保健的更强大卫生系统。
非传染性疾病的兴起。 心血管病、癌症、糖尿病和慢性呼吸病等慢性非传染性疾病，全球日益突出。其与生活方式、遗传和环境因素相关。
多因素成因与风险因素。 非传染性疾病通常由多种因素交互作用引起，包括烟草使用、不健康饮食、缺乏运动和有害饮酒。识别并改变这些风险因素是预防关键。
预防与控制策略。 预防策略涵盖原始预防、全人群干预和高危人群策略。控制措施包括早期发现、治疗和康复，重点提升生活质量。
11. 印度国家卫生计划：全面概述
系统应整合健康促进与疾病预防，以及急性病治疗与慢性病护理。
国家卫生使命（NHM）。 NHM整合多项卫生计划，包括国家农村卫生使命（NRHM）和国家城市卫生使命（NUHM），致力于提供普及优质医疗，强化卫生系统，关注妇幼健康和传染病及非传染病控制。
关键举措。 NHM涵盖多项关键举措，如ASHA社区卫生工作者、患者福利委员会和孕产妇安全计划，旨在改善母婴健康、卫生条件和医疗服务可及性。
特定疾病控制计划。 印度启动了结核病、麻风病和媒介传播疾病的专项控制计划，涵盖监测、病例管理、媒介控制和社区参与。
