Fundamentals of Clinical Pnei and Use of Data

The learning module aims to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of the integration between medical practice and the PNEI (Psychoneuroendocrinoimmunology) approach, with a particular focus on metabolism, tumor pathologies, and the management of clinical data. Through the study of the biological mechanisms underlying metabolism and tumorigenesis, students will acquire both theoretical and practical tools to interpret clinical data and apply a systemic approach to analyzing the interactions between the mind, endocrine system, nervous system, and immune system. This course will contribute to the development of competencies required for the future role of psychologists, particularly in clinical psychology and healthcare-related fields, by reinforcing interdisciplinary knowledge and the critical use of data in clinical settings.
The course aims to provide students with fundamental knowledge of clinical metabolism, with a particular focus on the interactions between the PNEI system and human pathologies.
The course further seeks to offer students a general understanding of how clinical and scientific data can be collected, managed, and interpreted from an integrated and systemic perspective, essential for analyzing complex pathophysiological dynamics.
The University course's objective is to introduce the role of clinical data within the PNEI therapeutic approach, emphasizing the importance of interdisciplinary perspectives in patient care.
The aim is for participants to acquire the knowledge and understanding of the principles of clinical data management and interpretation, particularly regarding metabolism and tumor pathologies, and more broadly for their applications in healthcare and human diseases within the PNEI model.
The educational objective of the course is to develop knowledge related to:
· The application of PNEI to the management of human pathologies
· Metabolism from a PNEI perspective
· Tumor pathologies and their relationship with the PNEI systems
· Collection, management, and interpretation of clinical data within the context of integrated medicine

1. Knowledge and Understanding: By the end of the module, students are expected to:
· Acquire an in-depth understanding of the principles underlying the integration of the PNEI (Psychoneuroendocrinoimmunology) system with clinical medicine.
· Intend, have cognition and describe the quality of data collected for epidemiological, research, and clinical purposes, particularly in relation to the application of various therapeutic approaches within the PNEI context. Students will also be able to define methods for the large-scale implementation and application of these approaches, establishing hierarchies of data quality and reliability.
· Understand the theoretical intersection and potential applications of the PNEI approach in the specific context of metabolic and oncological diseases, as well as in the broader spectrum of chronic non-communicable diseases and chronic morbidity.
· Comprehend the biological and pathophysiological mechanisms governing interactions between the nervous, endocrine, and immune systems, as well as their impact on chronic diseases, in order to define integrated prevention and treatment strategies.
· Acquire knowledge of the methodologies for managing and interpreting clinical data, with a focus on PNEI models and their application in clinical practice.
2. Ability to Apply Knowledge and Understanding: Students will be able to:
· Apply PNEI concepts to interpret clinical data and develop integrative therapeutic strategies for metabolic and oncological diseases.
· Utilize practical and methodological tools to analyze and manage clinical data from a systemic and interdisciplinary perspective.
· Translate theoretical knowledge into practical skills for the integrated management of patients, particularly regarding the PNEI approach to chronic conditions.
3. Critical Thinking and Judgment: Students will develop:
· Critical abilities to evaluate the efficacy and relevance of clinical data in the context of integrated medicine, with particular attention to oncological and metabolic pathologies.
· The capacity to formulate informed judgments on the interactions between complex physiological systems, based on scientific evidence in the PNEI field.
4. Communication of Acquired Knowledge: By the end of the course, students will be able to:
· Effectively communicate the results of their analyses and interpretations of clinical data, using appropriate scientific and technical language tailored to the target audience (colleagues, specialists, patients).
· Produce clinical and scientific reports highlighting the role of the PNEI system in the pathologies addressed, adopting an interdisciplinary perspective.
5. Independent Study and Lifelong Learning: Students will acquire:
· Tools and methods to independently deepen their knowledge in the evolving field of PNEI and clinical data management, fostering a mindset of continuous learning.
· Competencies to integrate new scientific discoveries into their professional practice, with a critical and updated approach.
