HIV and Depression – a systematic review of interventions
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…
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…
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…
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
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

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…

Amphibious Warfare in the Eighteenth Century
Lord Cathcart, the Earl of Stair and the Scottish Opposition to Sir Robert Walpole, 1732–173511
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.…

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…

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…

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

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…
