Early essential newborn care
In 2013, WHO partnered with Ministries of Health and development partners in nine countries in Asia and the Pacific to develop, test and scale-up of Early Essential Newborn Care (EENC), a package of simple evidence-based interventions shown to prevent or treat the most important causes of newborn morbidity and mortality, delivered around birth or in the early newborn period. This effort became the largest regional collaboration to improve the qua…
IRA Associates
The wider scholarship on ethno-nationalist terrorism and more specifically, research into the Provisional Irish Republican Army, has long endeavoured to identify the individual actors involved in furthering violence and the motivations which led to their involvement. However, the study of who directly and indirectly participated in the violence of the Northern Ireland Conflict has largely overlooked individuals who directly participated in IRA ac…
Identifying and Characterizing Medical Advice-Seekers on a Social Media Forum for Buprenorphine Use
Background: Online communities such as Reddit can provide social support for those recovering from opioid use disorder. However, it is unclear whether and how advice-seekers differ from other users. Our research addresses this gap by identifying key characteristics of r/suboxone users that predict advice-seeking behavior. Objective: The objective of this analysis is to identify and describe advice-seekers on Reddit for buprenorphine-naloxone use …
Equitable recovery from Covid-19
Internet-based cognitive behaviour therapy for insomnia before and during the Covid-19 pandemic
Objective Online cognitive behavioural therapy for insomnia (iCBT-I) provides scalable access to psychological interventions; however, the effectiveness of these courses during COVID-19 has not been examined. This study investigated the uptake and potential effectiveness of iCBT-I during the first 10 months of the pandemic in Australia (March- December 2020) and compared outcomes in the year prior
Association between early essential newborn care and breastfeeding outcomes in eight countries in Asia and the Pacific
OBJECTIVE: To explore the association between early essential newborn care (EENC) policy, practice and environmental interventions and breastfeeding outcomes. DESIGN: Cross-sectional observational study. SETTING: 150 national, provincial and district hospitals implementing EENC in eight countries in East Asia and the Pacific. PARTICIPANTS: 1383 maternal interviews, chart reviews and environmental assessments during 2016 and 2017. MAIN OUTCOME MEA…
Failure to Protect
This article critically reanalyses the action, or lack of action, taken by UN peacekeepers in Rwanda and Srebrenica in the 1990's. The lack of action of UN peacekeepers in Rwanda and Bosnia has long been criticised as a conscious decision made by peacekeepers to not act in defence of those being targeted but instead to act as bystanders of genocide when they had the ability to prevent acts of genocide taking place. This article re-examines the ac…
Accountability for women’s, children’s and adolescents’ health in the Sustainable Development Goal era
Background: Commitment to the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) in 2000 resulted in political momentum, new investments and mobilisation to implement practical steps needed to meet the framework of eight MDG goals. MDG 5 (improve maternal health) and MDG 4 (reduce child mortality) focused on improving women’s and children’s health, with newborn health not added until the mid-2000s. The MDG era saw vast improvements in maternal and child surviva…
Insomnia and Sleep Disorders
Sleep is common to all animals and yet there are so many mysteries surrounding its function. Insomnia, the most common sleep disorder, is prevalent and debilitating and has been shown to play a role in the onset and maintenance of other mental health disorders, such as depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder. This chapter outlines a basic overview of sleep, followed by a summary of cutting‐edge research investigating insomnia as well as its rel…
Holding a country countdown to 2015 conference on Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) – the Zambian experience
Initiatives such as the Country Countdown to 2015 Conference on Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) have provided countries with high maternal and child deaths like Zambia a platform to assess progress, discuss challenges and share lessons learnt as a conduit for national commitment to reaching and attaining the MDGs four and five. This paper discusses and highlights the process of holding a successful country countdown conference and shares Zamb…
Countdown to 2015 decade report (2000–10)
Differences in Factor Structures of Cognitive Functioning of Learning Disabled (LD) and Emotionally Handicapped (EH) Children
Previous empirical studies have been inconsistent in the identification of cognitive differences between learning disabled (LD) and emotionally handicapped (EH) children on psychoeducational assessment batteries. Furthermore, studies using multivariate procedures such as discriminant analysis have failed to verify the basic underlying assumption of homogeneity of variance-covariance matrices of the groups. Homogeneity of covariance can be assesse…
The Practice of Faculty Development
A two-year-old faculty development program at a large urban university is examined by discussing the strategies employed to facilitate faculty growth, and analyzing, in hindsight, how appropriate or inappropriate they may have been vis-à-vis faculty or institutional needs. Based upon these observations a model is derived that describes faculty development as an evolving process, beginning with low mutual knowledge and trust and an “expert” consul…
