“It was a force for good but…”
Stakeholders viewed the legislation as a force for good but highlighted challenges in implementation and enforcement. • Stakeholders reported limited government communication, delayed guidance, and access to product nutrition data as key implementation challenges. • Seven policy recommendations were co-developed to support the development and implementation of effective food policy in future. In 2022, legislation in England restricted products hi…
Impact of a Pediatric Mental Health Crisis Service in the emergency department on hospital resource utilization
BACKGROUND: Lengthening waitlists, reduced outpatient care availability, and increased numbers of children experiencing mental health (MH) crises have strained emergency departments (EDs). EDs facilitate access to immediate intervention and triage to acute services but are often underresourced and undertrained to manage the unique needs of mental health crises. The combination of demand, complexity, and resources required encouraged the developme…
Mapping Advertising Assets Project
Objective: Food environments can influence dietary behaviours. Promotion of foods high in fats, salt and sugars is a barrier to healthy eating. We explore advertising by deprivation in an English city. Design: Using a cross-sectional design, we describe the prevalence of outdoor advertising, the types of products advertised and the UK Nutrient Profile Modelling scores for advertised foods and non-alcoholic beverages. Differences in outdoor advert…
Customer awareness and perceptions of the high in fat, sugar, and salt (HFSS) placement legislation and impacts on self-reported food purchasing
Supermarket Transaction Records In Dietary Evaluation
Objective: Scalable methods are required for population dietary monitoring. The Supermarket Transaction Records In Dietary Evaluation (STRIDE) study compares dietary estimates from supermarket transactions with an online FFQ. Design: Participants were recruited in four waves, accounting for seasonal dietary variation. Purchases were collected for 1 year during and 1 year prior to the study. Bland–Altman agreement and limits of agreement (LoA) wer…
Contrasting socio-economic influences on colorectal cancer incidence and survival in England and Wales
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most commonly diagnosed cancer in the world and second most common cause of cancer death. The relationship between socio-economic deprivation and CRC incidence is unclear and previous findings have been inconsistent. There is stronger evidence of an association between area-level deprivation and CRC survival; however, few studies have investigated the association between individual-level socio-economic status …
A foresight whole systems obesity classification for the English UK biobank cohort
This paper presents the first study of UK Biobank participants to adopt this obesity system approach to characterising participants. It provides an innovative new approach to better understand the complex drivers of obesity which has the potential to produce meaningful tools for policy makers to better target interventions across the whole system to reduce overweight and obesity
Characterisation of Temporal Patterns in Step Count Behaviour from Smartphone App Data
The increasing ubiquity of smartphone data, with greater spatial and temporal coverage than achieved by traditional study designs, have the potential to provide insight into habitual physical activity patterns. This study implements and evaluates the utility of both K-means clustering and agglomerative hierarchical clustering methods in identifying weekly and yearlong physical activity behaviour trends. Characterising the demographics and choice …
Socio-demographic determinants of physical activity and app usage from smartphone data
The increasing ubiquity of smartphones provides a potential new data source to capture physical activity behaviours. Though not designed as a research tool, these secondary data have the potential to capture a large population over a more extensive spatial area and with longer temporality than current methods afford. This paper uses one such secondary data source from a commercial app designed to incentivise activity. We explore the new insights …
Food safety vulnerability
This paper utilises logistic regression to identify ecological determinants of non-compliant food outlets in England and Wales. We consider socio-demographic, urbanness and business type features to better define vulnerable populations based on the characteristics of the area within which they live. We find a clear gradient of association between deprivation and non-compliance, with outlets in the most deprived areas 25% less likely (OR = 0.75) t…
Methods of measuring associations between the Retail Food Environment and weight status
Despite considerable research, evidence supporting associations between the 'Retail Food Environment' (RFE) and obesity remains mixed. Differences in the methods used to measure the RFE may explain this heterogeneity. Using data on a large (n = 10,111) sample of adults from the Yorkshire Health Study (UK), we modelled cross-sectional associations between the RFE and weight status using (i) multiple definitions of 'Fast Food', 'Convenience' and 'S…
A systematic review employing the GeoFern framework to examine methods, reporting quality and associations between the retail food environment and obesity
Is adolescent body mass index and waist circumference associated with the food environments surrounding schools and homes? A longitudinal analysis
Our study found little consistent evidence of an association between features of the food environment and adolescent weight status. It suggests that policy efforts focusing on the food environment may have a limited effect at tackling the high prevalence of obesity if not supported by additional strategies
Estimating the outcome of UKs referendum on EU membership using e-petition data and machine learning algorithms
The United Kingdom’s 2016 referendum on membership of the European Union is perhaps one of the most important recent electoral events in the UK. This political sentiment has confounded pollsters, media commentators and academics alike, and has challenged elected Members of the Westminster Parliament. Unfortunately, for many areas of the UK this referendum outcome is not known for Westminster Parliamentary Constituencies, rather it is known for th…
Augmenting the IAD framework to reveal power in collaborative governance – An illustrative application to resource industry dominated processes
Using Geographic Information Systems to measure retail food environments
Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are widely used to measure retail food environments. However the methods used are hetrogeneous, limiting collation and interpretation of evidence. This problem is amplified by unclear and incomplete reporting of methods. This discussion (i) identifies common dimensions of methodological diversity across GIS-based food environment research (data sources, data extraction methods, food outlet construct definition…

Science–policy processes for transboundary water governance
What is the cost of a healthy diet? Using diet data from the UK Women's Cohort Study
BACKGROUND: A healthy diet is important to promote health and well-being while preventing chronic disease. However, the monetary cost of consuming such a diet can be a perceived barrier. This study will investigate the cost of consuming a range of dietary patterns. METHODS: A cross-sectional analysis, where cost of diet was assigned to dietary intakes recorded using a Food Frequency Questionnaire. A mean daily diet cost was calculated for seven d…
