  • The Influence of Adverse Childhood Experiences on Trauma Informed Care Among Primary Care Providers

    Open AccessKATIIRYN GARDNER, Kayla Gardner et al.ARTICLEINQUIRY The Journal of Health…2025

    Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are linked to lasting health and socioeconomic challenges; however, less is known about how primary care providers' own trauma histories impact their provision of trauma-informed care (TIC). This cross-sectional survey study assessed the relationship between primary care providers' personal trauma history (ACE scores), personal reaction to trauma (burnout, compassion fatigue, and vicarious victimization), and …

  • Is well-becoming important for children and young people? Evidence from in-depth interviews with children and young people and their parents

    Open AccessSamantha Husband, P M Mitchell et al.ARTICLEQuality of Life Research2024

    The study findings, taken alongside relevant literature, have generated evidence to support the notion that future well-becoming is important to current wellbeing. We have drawn on our own work in capability wellbeing measure development to demonstrate how we have incorporated a well-becoming attribute into our measures. The inclusion of well-becoming indicators in measures could aid investment in interventions which more directly improve well-be…

METHODS: Genealogical information of all Braganza monarchs (1640-1910) was used to compute the individual's inbreeding coefficient (F) and the coefficient of kinship (θ) of the marriage which were examined in re…

  • Mental health issues of Maria I of Portugal and her sisters

    Open AccessTimothy J Peters, CLIVE WILLISARTICLEHistory of Psychiatry2013

    Contemporary accounts credit Dr Francis Willis (1718–1807) with facilitating the recovery of King George III from his major episode of acute mania in 1788–9. Subsequently Willis was summoned to Lisbon to advise on the mental health problems of Queen Maria I. This article reports the nature of the illnesses of Maria and her two similarly affected sisters, and uses the program OPCRIT to propose diagnoses of major depressive disorders. The high prev…

  • The nature of King James VI/I’s medical conditions

    Open AccessTimothy J Peters, Timothy Peters et al.ARTICLEHistory of Psychiatry2012

    It has been claimed that King James VI/I, an antecedent of King George III, suffered from acute porphyria, and that the disease was passed on to George III through his grand-daughter Sophie, mother of George I. The life of James is reviewed and previously-proposed diagnoses are considered. James’s medical history is discussed in detail and, where possible, examined with validated symptom scales. Using an online database of neurological diseases, …

  • An investigation of the construct validity of the Icecap-A capability measure

    Open AccessHareth Al-Janabi, Timothy J Peters et al.ARTICLEQuality of Life Research2012

Further work could establish whether self-reported capabilities exhibit desirable validity and acceptability in sub-groups of the population such as patients, social care recipients and informal carers

  • The madness of King George III

    Open AccessTimothy J Peters, Allan BeveridgeARTICLEHistory of Psychiatry2010

    This research, based on a study of King George III’s medical records and of contemporary diaries of his courtiers and equerries, further confirms the considerable doubt on the claim of Richard Hunter and Ida Macalpine that the King suffered from recurrent attacks of acute porphyria. The present study examines the above records from a psychiatric viewpoint, together with some additional reports, to re-assess the nature of the King’s maladies. It c…

  • King George III and porphyria

    Open AccessTimothy J Peters, David M Wilkinson et al.ARTICLEHistory of Psychiatry2010

    The diagnosis that George III suffered from acute porphyria has gained widespread acceptance, but re-examination of the evidence suggests it is unlikely that he had porphyria.The porphyria diagnosis was advanced by Ida Macalpine and Richard Hunter, whose clinical symptomatology and historical methodology were flawed. They highlighted selected symptoms, while ignoring, dismissing or suppressing counter-evidence. Their claims about peripheral neuro…

    Open AccessA Shaw, J Alison Noble et al.ARTICLEHealth & Social Care in the…2007References: 3

    Patients with chronic conditions are increasingly using complementary therapies. Asthma is the most common chronic disease in the UK. Qualitative research has suggested reasons why asthma patients use complementary therapies. However, there is little reliable quantitative evidence regarding the prevalence of complementary therapy use among asthma patients and predictors of use. A postal survey of complementary therapy use among asthma patients wa…

  • Urinary Cortisol and Cortisol Metabolite Excretion in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

    Walid K Jerjes, Norman Taylor et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2006

    Objectives: Reduced basal hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis output in chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) has been inferred from low cortisol levels in blood, saliva, and urine in some studies. Because > 95% of cortisol is metabolized before excretion, we assessed cortisol output by assay of both cortisol metabolites and free cortisol in 24-hour urine collections and also investigated sex differences in these between CFS and control groups.
