The U.S. Army War College guide to national security issues
This edition of the U. S. Army War College Guide to National Security Policy and Strategy continues to reflect the structure and approach of the core national security strategy and policy curriculum at the War College. The fourth edition is published in two volumes that correspond roughly to the Department of National Security and Strategy's core courses: "Theory of War and Strategy" and "National Security Policy and Strategy." Like previous editions, this one is largely an expansion of its predecessor rather than a major rewriting. About a quarter of the chapters are new, and several others have undergone significant rewrites or updates. However, approximately half of the book remains unchanged. Although this is not primarily a textbook, it does reflect both the method and manner we use to teach strategy formulation to America's future senior leaders. The book is not a comprehensive or exhaustive treatment of either strategic theory or the policymaking process. Both volumes are organized to proceed from the general to the specific. Thus the first volume opens with general thoughts on the nature and theory of war and strategy, proceeds to look at the complex aspect of power, and concludes with specific theoretical issues. Similarly, the second volume begins by examining the policy/strategy process, moves to a look at the strategic environment, and concludes with some specific issues. This edition adds several short case studies that can be used to illustrate the primary material in the volume. ; "July 2010." ; Includes bibliographical references. ; V. II.

Integrating the Prevention and Control of Rheumatic Heart Disease into Country Health Systems: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Background: National and international political commitments have been made recently on rheumatic heart disease (RHD), a preventable heart condition that is endemic in low-resource countries. To inform best practice and identify evidence gaps, we assessed the effectiveness of RHD prevention and control programmes and the extent and nature of their integration into local health systems.Methods: We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis using a previously published protocol that included electronic and manual searches for studies published between January 1990 and July 2019 reporting on prevention and control programmes for populations at risk for streptococcal pharyngitis, rheumatic fever, and/or RHD. We analysed programme integration according to a previously published framework and programme effectiveness using a results-chain framework. We meta-analysed secondary prophylaxis adherence using random-effects models. Study quality was assessed using peer-reviewed checklists (CASP and PRISM). PROSPERO registration: CRD42017076307.Findings: Five observational studies met with the inclusion criteria. Studies were similar in extent and nature of integration into health systems; no programme was completely integrated or non-integrated. A single study reported on programme impact. Secondary prophylaxis adherence improved among partially integrated RHD programmes (RR, 1.18 [95% CI, 1.03 to 1.36], 3 studies, n = 618). Risk of bias was low in two studies, and indeterminable in the remaining three studies.Interpretation: There is evidence that partially integrated RHD programmes are beneficial for a range of intermediate health outcomes. This review provides a starting point for the design and implementation of future RHD programmes by outlining current best practice for integration and identifying key gaps in knowledge.Funding: National Research Foundation of South Africa.

The Second Rheumatic Heart Disease Forum Report
The second rheumatic heart disease (RHD) forum was held on February 18, 2013, at the Sixth World Congress of Pediatric Cardiology and Cardiac Surgery in Cape Town, South Africa, to focus attention on key areas in global RHD control, management, and prevention. Building on the foundation of the first RHD forum, over 150 interested participants met to discuss critical issues on the RHD landscape. Unique to this meeting was a mixture of diverse backgrounds and disciplines, all crucially important to the conversation around RHD control and prevention. Some clear priorities have emerged for RHD activities in the next era: the necessity for political intervention and policy change; increasing the health workforce by incorporating teaching, training, and task-shifting; revitalizing the research agenda by merging basic, clinical, and translational research; and obtaining universal access to high-quality penicillin. There was also an urgent request for new resources; for existing resources to be further developed, improved, and shared across platforms; and for resources to be supported in the nonmedical arena. Finally, the necessity of involving the patient community in the ongoing discussion was highlighted. The participants of both the first and second RHD forum represent a new, thriving, and growing community of RHD activists who should usher in a new era of significant improvements in RHD control and prevention.
