High consumption of antibiotics has been identified as an important driver for the increasing antibiotic resistance, considered to be one greatest threats public health globally. Simply informing about this consequence is insufficient induce behavioral change. This study explored beliefs and perceptions among Swedes, with aim identifying factors promoting hindering a judicious approach use. The focused primarily on medical use antibiotics, also considering other aspects connected such...
Background With new technologies, health data can be collected in a variety of different clinical, research, and public contexts, then used for range purposes. Establishing the public’s views about digital sharing is essential policy makers to develop effective harmonization initiatives governance at European level. Objective This study investigated preferences sharing. Methods A discrete choice experiment survey was administered sample residents 12 countries (Austria, Denmark, France,...
Purpose A status quo situation has occurred among actors, policymakers, producers, retailers and consumers where no one takes the lead on antimicrobial resistance (AMR) fight. Common theoretical approaches to behaviour including awareness, understanding use are insufficient in AMR context. In this paper, authors suggest application of accountability literature fully understand with AMR. Design/methodology/approach food become an alarming problem past decade is increasing threat global...
Abstract Background Antibiotic resistance is a complex phenomenon heavily influenced by social, cultural, behavioural, and economic factors that lead to the misuse, overuse abuse of antibiotics. Recent research has highlighted role norms values can play for behaviours contribute development, addressing such behaviours. Despite comparatively high antibiotic consumption in Greece, both at community healthcare level, Greeks have been shown be relatively aware connection between resistance. This...
At the beginning of 2020, widespread diffusion SARS-CoV-2 rapidly became a worldwide priority. In Italy, government implemented lockdown for more than two months (March 9-May 18). Aware uniqueness such an experience, we designed online qualitative study focused on three main dimensions: daily life during lockdown, relationships with others, and public health issues. The aim was to gain insights into people's experiences of, attitudes toward, changes caused by measures as response COVID-19...
Objectives: To identify preferences of the Swedish public regarding antibiotic treatment characteristics and relative weight resistance in their choices. Methods: A questionnaire including a discrete choice experiment was answered by 378 participants. Preferences general five (attributes) were measured: contribution to resistance, cost, side effects, failure rate duration. Latent class analysis models used determine attribute-level estimates heterogeneity preferences. Relative importance...
Antimicrobial resistance occurs when microorganisms survive exposure and proliferate in the presence of therapeutic levels antimicrobial drugs. Because is increasing, it vital to encourage consumers change adopt smarter antibiotic behaviour. Despite World Health Organization's efforts combat their emphasis on importance public involvement, role has been overlooked. The manifold responsibility for extends across different actors, including food retailers consumers. Given this shared...
Over the past 25 years, there has been growing recognition of importance studying Ethical, Legal and Social Implications (ELSI) genetic genomic research. A large investment into ELSI research from National Institutes Health (NIH) Human Genomic Project budget in 1990 stimulated growth this emerging field; continued to develop is starting emerge as a field its own right. The evolving subject matter continues raise new questions well prompt re-evaluation earlier work number scholars working...
In this study, we examined the ethical implications of Egypt's new clinical trial law, employing framework proposed by Emanuel et al. and comparing it to various national supranational laws. This analysis is crucial as Egypt, considered a high-growth pharmaceutical market, has become an attractive location for trials, offering insights into implementation bioethical regulations in large population country with robust healthcare infrastructure predominantly treatment-naïve patients.
Synthetic biology will probably have a high impact on variety of fields, such as healthcare, environment, biofuels, agriculture, and so on. A driving theme in European research policy is the importance maintaining public legitimacy support. Media can influence attitudes are therefore an important object study. Through qualitative content analysis, this study investigates press coverage synthetic major Nordic countries between 2009 2014. The was found to be event-driven there were striking...
ObjectivesDecisions about health often involve risk, and different decision makers interpret value risk information differently. Furthermore, an individual's attitude toward health-specific risks can contribute to variation in preferences behavior. This study aimed determine whether how health-risk heterogeneity of are related.MethodsTo the association between preference heterogeneity, we selected 3 discrete choice experiment case studies domain that included attributes accounted for...
Abstract Antibiotic resistance (AR) is a major threat to public health and healthcare worldwide. In this article, we analyse discuss the claim that taking actions minimize AR everyone's responsibility, focusing on individual moral responsibility. This should not be merely interpreted as function of knowledge proper use antibiotics. Instead, suggest circumstantial account responsibility for AR, where individuals do or engage in judicious antibiotic behaviour with different degrees...
Purpose: Studies assessing framing effects in discrete choice experiments (DCE) primarily focused on attributes related to mortality/survival information. Little is known about for other health-related DCEs. This study aimed investigate how treatment outcome as effective, failure, or a combined frame impacts respondent choices and DCE outcomes. Patients Methods: Three Bayesian D-efficient designed surveys measuring preferences antibiotic treatments were randomly distributed representative...
Due to the alarming rise of antibiotic resistance, medically unwarranted use antibiotics has assumed new moral significance. In this paper, a thematic content analysis focus group discussions was conducted explore lay people's views on challenges posed by resistance. The most important finding is that people are morally sensitive problems entailed Participants saw decreasing availability effective as problem justice. This involves individual well collective responsibility. Yet, holding...
The health of a community depends on the its individuals; therefore, individual behaviour can implicitly affect entire community. This is particularly evident in case infectious diseases. Because level prosociality might determine effectiveness programmes, prosocial may be crucial disease-control resource. study aimed to extend literature and investigate role altruism antibiotic decision making. A discrete choice experiment was conducted assess influence general public's preferences...
<sec> <title>BACKGROUND</title> Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a major global health issue heavily influenced by human behaviour. Effective communication and awareness-raising are crucial in curbing AMR, with social network sites (SNSs) significantly shaping behaviours. Despite their potential, current analyses of AMR on SNSs have focused mainly top-down initiatives. </sec> <title>OBJECTIVE</title> This study aims to examine Instagram, identifying key actors, content themes, the nature...
