Background Internet-accessed sexually transmitted infection testing (e-STI testing) is increasingly available as an alternative to in clinics. Typically this modality enables users order a test kit from virtual service (via website or app), collect their own samples, return samples laboratory, and be notified of results by short message (SMS) telephone. e-STI assumed increase access comparison with face-to-face services, but the evidence unclear. We conducted randomised controlled trial...
To assess the effectiveness of an internet-accessed STI (e-STI) testing and results service on uptake among young adults (16-30 years) who have never tested for STIs in London, England.We conducted secondary analyses data from a randomised controlled trial. In trial, participants were randomly allocated to receive text message with web link e-STI (intervention group) or website listing locations, contact details websites seven local sexual health clinics (control group). We analysed...
Improving peri- and postnatal facility-based care in low-resource settings (LRS) could save over 6000 babies' lives per day. Most of the annual 2.4 million neonatal deaths 2 stillbirths occur healthcare facilities LRS are preventable through implementation cost-effective, simple, evidence-based interventions. However, their is challenging systems where one four babies admitted to units die. In high-resource strengthening increasingly delivered via learning optimise quality, but this approach...
To examine indirect impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on neonatal care in low-income and middle-income countries. Interrupted time series analysis. Two tertiary units Harare, Zimbabwe Lilongwe, Malawi. We included a total 6800 neonates who were admitted to either unit from 1 June 2019 25 September 2020 (Zimbabwe: 3450; Malawi: 3350). applied no specific exclusion criteria. The first cases each country 20 March 2020; 3 April 2020). Changes number admissions, gestational age birth weight,...
Background Despite increasing rates of facility-based deliveries, neonatal mortality remain persistently high in low-resource settings (LRS). This has catalysed international focus on understanding and enabling quality newborn care. We aimed to understand persistent barriers Quality Care (QoC) identify improvement priorities from the perspective a panel experts with first-hand experience delivering care Methods conducted 13 semi-structured interviews health via Skype. All were recorded...
Can fictions of desire determine real pleasures? Do texts regulate the performance our sexual identities? In Sexuality and Reading Encounter, Emma Wilson offers a new account intimate relations between reading, identity identification. Interweaving theoretical debate with analysis by Proust, Duras, Tournier Cixous, her study reveals formative potential transferential pleasures reading encounter. Drawing on an understanding as performative, alienated fictitious, this argues that we read act...
Understandings of women's agency in cases intimate partner violence (IPV) have been dominated by an individualistic focus on help-seeking behaviour. The role children influencing, enabling and restricting the decision-making processes their mothers has largely ignored. We adopt biographical analytical approaches to qualitative longitudinal data collected as part Young Lives study highlight interdependency children's contexts IPV Vietnam. illustrate how is both enabled constrained...
Background: Ensuring rapid access to high quality sexual health services is a key public objective, both in the United Kingdom and internationally. Internet-based testing for sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are considered be promising way achieve this goal. This study will evaluate nascent online STI results service South East London, delivered alongside standard face-to-face services. Objective: The aim of establish whether an can (1) increase diagnoses STIs (2) uptake testing, when...
ABSTRACT Background Deaths from COVID-19 have exceeded 1.8 million globally (January 2020). We examined trends in markers of neonatal care before and during the pandemic at two tertiary units Zimbabwe Malawi. Methods analysed data collected prospectively via NeoTree app Sally Mugabe Central Hospital (SMCH), Zimbabwe, Kamuzu (KCH), Neonates admitted 1 June 2019 to 25 September 2020 were included. modelled impact first cases (Zimbabwe: 20 March 2020; Malawi: 3 April 2020) on number admissions,...
Abstract Objective: This paper concerned the perceived suffering/side effects caused by various well-known treatments for personal problems. It looked at whether people understood potentially painful that confront negative aversive affect were effective or not. Method: In total, 106 participants completed a long questionnaire assessing 'psychological pain' ratings of 30 psychotherapy treatments, varying in fear exposure, four relatively common anxiety disorders: social phobia, agoraphobia,...
Introduction Every year 2.4 million deaths occur worldwide in babies younger than 28 days. Approximately 70% of these low-resource settings because failure to implement evidence-based interventions. Digital health technologies may offer an implementation solution. Since 2014, we have worked Bangladesh, Malawi, Zimbabwe and the UK develop pilot Neotree: android app with accompanying data visualisation, linkage export. Its low-cost hardware state-of-the-art software are used improve bedside...
<ns3:p>The global priority of improving neonatal survival could be tackled through the universal implementation cost-effective maternal and newborn health interventions. Despite 90% deaths occurring in low-resource settings, very few evidence-based digital interventions exist to assist healthcare professionals clinical decision-making these settings. To bridge this gap, Neotree was co-developed an iterative, user-centered design approach collaboration with UK, Bangladesh, Malawi, Zimbabwe....
Two-thirds of the 2.4 million newborn deaths that occurred in 2020 within first 28 days life might have been avoided by implementing existing low-cost evidence-based interventions for all sick and small newborns. An open-source digital quality improvement tool (Neotree) combining data capture with education clinical decision support is a promising solution this implementation gap.
Abstract This essay situates Cristian Mungiu's film, 4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days in relation to a number of films which deal with abortion. However, the argument is made that this film's chief concern for problems intimacy distress pertaining central friendship between two women.
<h3>Objectives</h3> Ensuring existing low-cost evidence-based interventions are implemented for all sick and small newborns could avoid around two-thirds of the 2.4 million newborn deaths within first 28 days life [1]. Neotree, an open-source digital quality improvement tool combining data capture with education clinical decision support is a solution to this implementation gap highly acceptable, feasible, usable tool, resulting in perceived observed improvements care [2–6]. As part pilot...
<h3>Background</h3> Healthcare ethnography requires a conscious effort at objectivity because the method is inherently subjective. Qualitative research in newborn care low-resource-settings, such as Zimbabwe, can present significant challenges and ethical dilemmas. This abstract presents an ethnographic study conducted low-resource setting of implementation digital intervention (Neotree) designed to improve care, comparing period crisis normality. <h3>Aim</h3> The aim discuss methodological...
