BACKGROUND: Interventions aimed at reducing the number of smokers are generally believed to be cost effective. However as the cost of the interventions should be paid up front whereas the gains in life years only appear in the future--the budgetary consequences might be a barrier to implementing such interventions. AIMS: The aim of the present paper was to assess the long-term cost effectiveness

Evaluation of a complex healthcare intervention should include careful exploration of the mechanisms through which it brings about change. This paper describes a qualitative evaluation of the Redesigning Daily Occupations (ReDO®-10) programme as it was implemented for the first time with women with stress-related issues in a primary care setting in Ireland. The ReDO®-10 is a 10-week group interven

The following study was conducted in order to answer the following questions: 1) Why do students start taking drugs in early adulthood?, 2) What does the ratio between students with early versus late onset drug use look like?, 3) Do students know where they could get professional help in case of drug use- related negative outcomes? and 4) What do they think of the healthcare available? Using the s

Over the past number of years, there has been an international focus on improving communication amongst clinicians during transition points in care. Although clinicians achieve successes in bridging gaps during clinical handovers the focus of research continues to be on communication problems amongst team members and its association to healthcare errors. As such, there are a limited number of stud

Objective: Diabetic foot ulceration (DFU) has the potential to deteriorate rapidly without prompt assessment and treatment. The aim of this study was to assess the referral patterns for DFU, from primary care to specialised diabetes foot care units. Method: A two-part, quantitative, online questionnaire was administered to GPs across four countries in Europe: France, the UK, Germany and Spain. The

In line with UN Agenda 2030, inequality in health and healthcare access is a top priority among the country’s policy-makers.

Moreover, it becomes problematic to work for an equal society when children have free access to pornography online. Therefore, the aim of the study is to investigate how employees in Swedish healthcare and aid organizations perceive the relationship between online pornograp

Background: This is the first longitudinal study with a 22-year follow-up, based on a national and complete sample, to determine whether the prevalence of hip fracture and the age when it occurs are influenced by migration and by being foreign-born. Cultural background and environmental factors such as UV-radiation and lifestyle during childhood and adolescence may influence the risk of a hip frac

Accumulating evidence suggests that AIDS orphanhood status is accompanied by increased levels of psychological distress such as anxiety, depression, intense guilt, shame, and anger. However, few studies have examined the possible reduction of psychological distress in AIDS orphans through the help of interventions that promote well-being. The objective of the study was to evaluate the effects of a

The individual prognosis of infants with atopic dermatitis (AD) is important for parents, healthcare professionals, and society. The aim of this study was to investigate predictors for remission of infant AD until school age. A systematic review was carried out of clinical and epidemiological studies investigating the effect of filaggrin gene (FLG) loss-of-function mutations, sex, exposure to pets
