Access to Supportive Care Among Australian Cancer Carers
Establishing fundamental co-design principles and strategies for public health research practice
This study focuses on defining standard co-design principles and exploring strategies for their application in public health research. A secondary analysis was conducted, examining 55 studies sourced from a systematic review, employing directed content analysis to clarify co-design principles and their applications. The research followed Mayring’s model for deductive category application, resulting in the development and testing of eight standard…
People affected by cancer and their carers from gender and sexually diverse communities
Disclosure of gender or sexuality, and interactions with clinicians had the potential to impact participants' experience of cancer care. Gaps in informal networks pointed at how to better support LGBTQIA + communities, and identified opportunities for inclusion in an app that will be tailored and trialled for this community. Future work should focus on addressing systems-level processes in acknowledging and supporting priority groups affected by …
How well do the adult social care outcomes toolkit for carers, carer experience scale and care-related quality of life capture aspects of quality of life important to informal carers in Australia
The content of the three instruments appears relevant in an Australian setting. The influence of care recipient's health and well-being on carer QoL should be considered, along with spillover effects. A content and/or face validity analysis is required to confirm differences in item interpretation in Australian informal carers

Inequity in access to vaccines
This article summarizes the strategies used to rapidly develop COVID-19 vaccines and distribute them globally, with an emphasis on vaccines developed in western nations. It is based on interviews and information gathered regarding the response to the pandemic, both from international organizations and official documents from Brazil, Argentina, Colombia, Peru, and Mexico. While vaccine development has been hailed as successful, their global distri…
A Missing Piece in Clinical Trial Inspections in Latin America
Most regulatory agencies conduct clinical trial (CT) site inspections, but the experiences and behaviors of research subjects and their knowledge of the rights and obligations that ensue from participating in a CT are seldom explored. The authors assessed the technical feasibility of incorporating interviews with participants in CT inspections. This article analyzes the responses of 13 CT participants, 14% ( n = 96) of those included in three tub…
Clients’ Perspectives on Outcomes and Mechanisms of Bereavement Counselling
ObjectivesBereavement counselling (BC) seeks to address pervasive grief and facilitate healthy adaptation to loss. There is limited understanding of BC outcomes and the mechanisms that facilitate outcomes. Quantitative measures tend to focus on clinical rather than salutogenic outcomes such as post‐traumatic growth. Furthermore, there is limited research about the contribution that client and counsellor attributes and the therapeutic alliance mak…

Mexican pharmacies
While the risks are evident, some uninsured, chronically-ill United States residents may benefit from access to medications previously recommended by a physician, without obtaining a new prescription. The authors suggest five steps for reducing the risks and improving pharmaceutical utilization in the border area
Cuatro palabras sobre ensayos clínicos
This article discusses the limitations of clinical trials in determining the safety and efficacy of therapeutic drugs in Latin America. A major limitation is the lack of transparency surrounding the implementation of clinical trials. The data gathered by research ethics committees, regulatory agencies and the pharmaceutical industry is inaccessible to outside parties; this secrecy is not explained by the need to protect industrial secrets but rat…

Improving access to pharmaceuticals in Brazil and Argentina
The population of many Latin American countries is having increasing difficulty in accessing needed medicines due to the rise in their unitary cost and the growing number of poor in most countries of the region. A number of countries have taken steps to increase access to pharmaceuticals and have had different levels of success. This article reports on two country-wide programmes: the AIDS programme in Brazil, which has been judged as being highl…
From Scientists to Merchants
The number of innovative drugs reaching the market has decreased steadily during the last several years to a handful per year. At the same time, the amount of resources allocated by the pharmaceutical industries to promotion and marketing has increased at a faster pace than those allocated to research and development of new products. The paper presents the hypothesis that for the large corporations, the production of me-too drugs is more profitab…
Why neoliberal health reforms have failed in Latin America
Las reformas neoliberales del sector de la salud

The piece also looks at the process of formulating and implementing the reforms. The piece utilizes secondary sources and in-depth interviews with health sector manag…

Las reformas de salud neoliberales en América Latina
Neoliberal reforms have promoted privatization and decentralization as strategies to improve equity, efficiency, and the quality of health services. In this piece the impact of these reforms in Latin America is critically analyzed, and the impacts of privatization in Colombia and of decentralization in Mexico are detailed. These two cases show that after 10 years of privatization in Colombia and 20 years of decentralization in Mexico the reforms …
Homedes and Ugalde Respond
We would like to thank Waterman and Stolp for their interest in fostering the discussion on US–Mexico border health issues, and the Journal for allowing us to clarify one of the most important concepts developed in our December 2003 article. As we mentioned (p2017, first paragraph), and as Waterman and Stolp say in their letter, there was nothing purposely included in NAFTA to enhance collaboration on health-related issues with counterparts on th…
Globalization and Health at the United States–Mexico Border
Objectives. We studied the impact of globalization on the making of health policy. Globalization is understood as economic interdependence among nations. The North American Free Trade Agreement is used as a marker to assess the effects of economic interdependence on binational health cooperation along the United States–Mexico border. Methods. We observed participants and conducted in-depth interviews with policymakers, public health specialists, …
Improving the use of pharmaceuticals through patient and community level interventions
Health and Social Services among International Labor Migrants
The contributors to this volume, representing a wide variety of disciplines (including medicine, social work, political science, sociology, anthropology, psychology, and biology), are in agreement that the health and human services offered in industrial nations are generally monocultural, and not well suited for migrants from other cultures. One article even arrives at the disquieting conclusion that the mental health services offered to immigran…
Patients' compliance with medical treatments in the third world. What do we know
Responding to the slogan of Health for All for the Year 2000, third world governments have expanded the provision of primary health services, and with it, the number of prescriptions has increased phenomenally. However, we know very little about how third world patients are using prescribed medicines. In order to assess the available information, we reviewed 37 empirical studies on compliance located through electronic lines and networking. By an…
Political violence in the Third World
The impact of political violence on health and health services is substantial in many parts of the world. A variety of types of political violence are discernible and may be broadly categorized as structural, repressive, reactive and combative. These different types of violence are described. Particular emphasis is given to a discussion of state repressive violence, including its aetiology and magnitude. An agenda for research, policy and action …

International Migration from the Dominican Republic
The Dominican migration to the United States has been primarily directed to the New York area. The officially reported addresses given by Dominican aliens to the INS suggest a heavy concentration in the New York/New Jersey region. Using survey data, this study seeks to provide a profile of international Dominican migrants most of whom come to the United States. Reasons for migration by age, sex, and social strata are discussed, and an examination…

Do patients understand their physicians? Prescription compliance in a rural area of the Dominican Republic
Compliance with medical advice is an important component of medical care, but compliance cannot take place unless patients understand and retain physicians' advice. This paper is one of the first studies of the understanding and retention of medical advice in rural areas of the Third World. Researchers observed 119 medical consultations in a rural primary care clinic and later interviewed the patients in their homes. There were very few recommend…
