Aims Cardiovascular disease caused by smoking is related to the pathophysiological burden placed on vascular endothelium. We studied effect of chronic cigarette arterial wave reflection (study 1) and cessation pulse analysis 2). Methods Fifty smokers 50 age‐ sex‐matched nonsmokers participated in study 1. Study 2 recruited 20 volunteers from stop clinic at Royal Hallamshire Hospital, Sheffield, UK. Systemic augmentation index (AIx) carotid‐femoral velocity (PWV) were measured using...
Many Intensive Care Unit (ICU) survivors suffer from a multi- system disability, termed the post-intensive care syndrome. There is no current national coordination of either rehabilitation pathways or related data collection for them. In last year, need tools to systematically identify multidisciplinary needs severely affected COVID-19 has become clear. Such offer opportunity improve all critical illness through provision personalised Rehabilitation Prescription (RP). The initial development...

Background England, and the UK more generally, has a large burden of winter- cold-related mortality/morbidity in comparison with nearby countries continental Europe. Improving energy efficiency housing stock may help to reduce this, as well being important for climate change security objectives. Objectives To evaluate impact home (HEE) interventions on mortality/morbidity, including assessing winter fuel payments (WFPs) costs. Design A mixed-methods study – an epidemiological time-series...

Learning principles provide an alternative approach capture feedback ongoing iterative informative way. This paper outlines a novel aligned with will be tested study examining intervention designed improve mental physical health people severe illness...
