Reflections on organisational justice among police officers investigating rape and serious sexual offences in England and Wales
Organisational justice occurs when employees consider the actions and procedures within their workplace to be fair and equitable, but the evidence of whether and how this operates in a policing context is limited. We have used the concept of organisational justice to contextualise and examine the results from our data across five police constabularies, with a specific focus on investigators of rape and serious sexual offences. We share insights g…
Segmenting the Rape and Serious Sexual Offence (Rasso) investigator workforce
There is increasing awareness of police investigators’ wellbeing and the rising prevalence of burnout symptoms, creating long-term difficulties for policing. We utilized Maslach and Leiter’s approach to segment the workforce population for Rape and Serious Sexual Offence (RASSO) investigators based on a cross-sectional survey of 18 police forces (n = 2,108) across England and Wales. We fitted a Proportional Odds model to analyze the factors assoc…
Implementation, Processes and Outcomes of Advance Care Planning
BACKGROUND: Despite advance care planning (ACP) being associated with positive outcomes for residents in long-term care facilities (LTCFs), the causal pathways between ACP and these outcomes are context-specific and less understood. This lack of clarity can hinder the cultural adaptation and evaluation of ACP interventions. This study aimed to develop a programme theory that outlines the causal pathways through which the ACP is hypothesised to ac…
Experiences of pain among Palestinian advanced cancer patients
This social support/social solidarity, is generally regarded as a wajib (واجب), or obligation and duty people must fulfill and cannot be neglected. Dependence on God ( Allah ) and Tawwakul , that is, the reliance on Allah , which they drew upon for support and endurance, was also emphasized. The notion of Tawwakul and reliance on Allah is of particular importance in assisting patients and their families in coming to terms with their sickness and …
Interdisciplinary perspectives on multimorbidity in Africa
Multimorbidity is an emerging challenge for health systems globally. It is commonly defined as the co-occurrence of two or more chronic conditions in one person, but its meaning remains a lively area of academic debate, and the utility of the concept beyond high-income settings is uncertain. This article presents the findings from an interdisciplinary research initiative that drew together 60 academic and applied partners working in 10 African co…

Care Needs and Symptoms Burden of Breast Cancer Patients in Jordan
Breast cancer is the most common malignancy in Jordan. Rigorous needs assessment for breast cancer patients can prioritize both cancer care and palliative care to propose the appropriate services effectively. We conducted a cross-sectional study of breast cancer patients in a cancer center in Jordan. We assessed symptom burden, comorbidities, and performance using the Edmonton Symptom Assessment System (ESAS), the Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI)…

Intrus et envahisseurs
Des flots venait la menace, française ou espagnole. Pour la Grande-Bretagne, la mer a toujours été un élément défensif essentiel et, pour un envahisseur, l’obstacle le plus redoutable. Elle n’a jamais été infranchissable – les incursions à petite échelle n’ont jamais pu être stoppées. Face aux intrus et aux envahisseurs, elle a opposé les murailles de bois de ses vaisseaux. Cependant, la défense de la Grande-Bretagne ne reposait pas uniquement su…
Du vent et de l’eau
Naviguer au temps de la voile, c’est d’abord tâcher d’utiliser au mieux les vents et les courants en les subissant le moins possible. Dans des eaux aussi difficiles que celles anglaises de la Manche et de la mer du Nord, la tâche est ardue et requiert de grandes compétences. Souvent négligées par les historiens plus prompts à voir les routes commerciales et les opérations militaires, ces contraintes environnementales sont pourtant les données fon…
Measuring empowerment among people living with HIV
Does sexual behaviour of people with HIV reflect antiretroviral therapy as a preventive strategy? A cross-sectional study among outpatients in Kenya
Participants not on ART have more unprotected sexual intercourse than those who are on ART. This calls for the need to scale up coverage and early ART initiation in order to reduce transmission of HIV
Luis Gorrochategui Santos, The English Armada
Conducting experimental research in marginalised populations
Experimental studies to test interventions for people living with HIV in low- and middle-income countries are essential to ensure appropriate and effective clinical care. The implications of study participation on outcome data in such populations have been discussed theoretically, but rarely empirically examined. We aimed to explore the effects of participating in a randomised controlled trial conducted in an HIV clinic in Mombasa, Kenya. We repo…

Challenges of Data Dissemination Efforts Within a Community-Based Participatory Project About Persistent Racial Disparities in Excess Weight
Dissemination of local health data should be considered both as a strategy to increase community engagement and as an intervention to promote collective efficacy and community change. Careful attention should be dedicated to the language used when communicating racial disparities in excess weight to various community groups
Experience of persistent psychological symptoms and perceived stigma among people with HIV on antiretroviral therapy (ART)
Stressors and Resources of Caregivers of Patients With Incurable Progressive Illness in Sub-Saharan Africa
Family caregivers are central to palliative care in sub-Saharan Africa. Yet although supporting caregivers requires a comprehensive understanding of caregiver burden, there has been little research into this topic in Africa. Using the Stress Process Model to investigate the burden experienced by caregivers in South Africa and Uganda, we interviewed 37 caregivers and analyzed the data thematically. Caregivers' primary stressors related to day-to-d…
Regulating Prison Conditions
This article takes a look at the tools used to regulate prison conditions and compares these to the ones used in other countries. It emphasizes that the regulatory framework of the United States is almost completely separated from international standards, and that it depends on the weak regulatory tools of judicial intervention. It then presents a report on the rigorous prison inspectorate systems utilized in Western Australia and the United King…
State monopoly of ‘permitted violation of human rights’
The emergence of private sector management of state prisons over the last 30 years has been controversial. It has been strongly argued that the administration of prisons is a core state function that, morally, should not be delegated. Proponents of this view contend that the State should directly manage its prisons even if it could be demonstrated that the privately managed prisons are superior to publicly managed prisons in achieving positive co…

Impact of cultural exposure on young Chinese students' adaptation in a UK business school
This study examines young Chinese students' (born post 1985) adaptation to cultural exposure in the UK. Built from data collected from in-depth interviews, the research establishes that, through direct communication with students from various cultural backgrounds during teamwork, the Chinese students adapt to varying degrees in ideology, socialisation, forms of discourse and face system. The research finds that the extent of adjustment is moderat…

Private Prisons
Private prisons have become integral to penal administration in the United States, Australia, and the United Kingdom. The principal debate revolves around such tangible matters as regime quality, value for money, public accountability and the efficacy of regulatory procedures, and whether the private sector has improved standards and outcomes in the prison business as a whole. There is clear evidence that the advent of the private sector has stim…

Market Testing and Prison Riots
Research Summary: Macroeconomic reforms have swept many modern Western corrections jurisdictions into a world of commercial realities, privatization, and competition. The following case study reviews how competition (i.e., a market test) between the public and the private sectors in tendering for the operation of the Woodford Corrections Centre contributed to a riot. A combined model of the threshold and state‐centered theories of prison riots pr…
Sailors and Gentlemen of Parade
Of all types of military and naval activity, combined operations have had a particular fascination for public and politicians in the English-speaking world. In England, from Drake's raid on Cadiz in 1587 through to actions initiated by Sir Roger Keyes' Combined Operations Head Quarters in 1940, this mode of warfare has offered the romantic and morale-boosting spectacle of a beleaguered nation striking back at a powerful and threatening adversary.…

Current HIV/Aids end-of-life care in sub-Saharan Africa
The interdependent tasks of expanding pain control, balancing quality and coverage of care, providing technical assistance in monitoring and evaluation, collaborating between donor agencies and governments, and educating policy makers and program directors of end-of-life care are all necessary if resources are to reach their goals
Targeting smoking cessation to high prevalence communities
This tailored community-level intervention successfully recruited a high-prevalence group, and the outcome data compares very favourably to national monitoring data (which reports an average of 53% success). Implications for national targeted services are considered
An evaluation of a morphine public health programme for cancer and Aids pain relief in Sub-Saharan Africa
The Ugandan programme offers a successful model for both advocacy and Governmental support in achieving opioid roll-out across health districts. Despite initial concerns, abuse of opioids has not been evident. Further work is required to ensure that available supplies of opioids are prescribed to those in need, and that clinical standards are met. However, the programme for roll-out has proved a useful model to expand opioid availability as the f…
Adherence to antiretroviral treatment in patients with HIV in the UK
Adherence to HIV treatment regimes is a core element to viral suppression. Yet measurement of adherence is complex. Although adherence levels are good predictors of outcome, they do not always provide full explanations of observed variations in responses. This study was set up to examine the complexity of adherence measurement and to examine rates of adherence in the presence of complex measurement. A total of 502 consecutive attenders at HIV cli…
