  • Outlining the global variation in resources for traumatic brain injury care: Site-level data from the Global Neurotrauma Outcomes Study (GNOS)

    Open AccessAdarsh Arun Menon, David Clark et al.ARTICLEBMJ Global Health2026

    INTRODUCTION: Traumatic brain injury (TBI), a leading cause of global morbidity and mortality, has notably poorer outcomes in resource-poor settings. Managing TBI effectively requires functional integration of several interdependent phases of care which, in resource-poor settings, may be both individually fragile and poorly coordinated. However, there is a paucity of global data quantifying systemic deficiencies in TBI care across varying resourc…

  • Mistaken Defense and the Unbundling of Rights

    David Clark, David J ClarkARTICLEEthics2025

    Central to the ethics of harm is the project of developing a theory of when and why persons forfeit rights to not be harmed. I argue that standard accounts of forfeiture are too coarse-grained to make sense of a range of cases involving “merely apparent attackers.” Making sense of these cases requires that we distinguish between the forfeiture of rights and the forfeiture of the contingent, moral “perks” of those rights. Appreciating this distinc…

  • Peer review: The attitudes and behaviours of Covid-19 pandemic-era early career researchers

    Open AccessDiana Nicholas, Eti Herman et al.ARTICLEEl Profesional de la Informacion2023References: 1

    Explores science and social science early career researchers’ (ECRs) perceptions and experiences of peer review, seeking also to identify their views of any pandemic-associated changes that have taken place. Data are drawn from the Harbingers-2 project, which investigated the impact of the pandemic on scholarly communications. Peer review, one of the activities covered, is singled out as it proved to be the activity of greatest concern to ECRs. F…

  • Early career researchers and predatory journals during the Covid-19 pandemic. An international analysis

    Open AccessDiana Nicholas, Blanca Rodríguez Bravo et al.ARTICLEEl Profesional de la Informacion2023Cited by: 1

    Around 170 early career researchers (ECRs) from 8 countries were interviewed about the whole range of their scholarly communication attitudes/behaviours during pandemic times and this paper analyses what they said about predatory journals in a wide range of scholarly communication contexts. Because of the delicacy of the topic there was just one question exclusively directed at predatory journals, which asked about policies rather than actions, w…

    Questioning the ethics of international research on formula milk supplementation in low-income African countries: response

  • Questioning the ethics of international research on formula milk supplementation in low-income African countries

    Open AccessTanya Doherty, Ingunn Marie Stadskleiv Engebretsen et al.ARTICLEBMJ Global Health2022

    Over the past three decades, the increase \nin funding for priority public health issues \nlargely affecting low/middle-income countries (LMICs) has led to the growth in international research involving researchers \nor research sponsors from a high-income \ncountry (HIC) conducting research in \nLMICs. The ethical considerations in such \ninternational research were raised in the \n1990s and several ethical guidelines specifically addressing int…

  • Bonhoeffer's Christological Interpretation of the Psalms: Tensions, Subjectivity, and the Voice of Christ

    Open AccessDavid Clark, David A R ClarkARTICLEPro Ecclesia A Journal of…2022

    By closely examining three texts (“Christ in the Psalms,” Life Together, and Prayerbook of the Bible: An Introduction to the Psalms), this article investigates how Dietrich Bonhoeffer develops and formulates his Christological approach to the Psalms in response to two specific tensions. The first tension emerges as Bonhoeffer discerns a problematic duality in the Psalter as both human prayers and divine word; he resolves this tension by asserting…

  • The expression of ‘policy’ in palliative care: A critical review

    Open AccessSandy Whitelaw, Anthony Bell et al.ARTICLEHealth Policy2022

    The importance of 'policy' within palliative care has steadily increased over the past 25 years. Whilst this has been welcomed within the palliative care field and seen as a route to greater recognition, we focus here on a more critical perspective that challenge the effectiveness of a 'policy turn' in palliative care. Applying Bacchi's "What's the Problem Represented to Be?" (WPR) framework to data from a systematic search, we address the resear…

  • Evangelical Historiography in the Colonial and Postcolonial Eras

    Open AccessDavid Clark, David Andrew ClarkARTICLEOpen Theology2022

    To better understand how a particular community understands its story, we look at the philosophy, aesthetics, and historical–cultural contexts of those who have written its history. This article analyses an example of colonial era historiography entitled The Progress of Dogma written by Scottish evangelical theologian James Orr. It critically evaluates how Orr’s historiographical approach is at once an asset and a liability for evangelical Christ…

  • Age within schoolyear and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder in Scotland and Wales

    Open AccessMichael Fleming, Amrita Bandyopadhyay et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2022

    Children younger within schoolyear are more likely to be treated for ADHD, suggesting immaturity may influence diagnosis. However, these children are more likely to be held back in countries that permit flexibility, attenuating the relative age effect

  • Medicalisation, suffering and control at the end of life: The interplay of deep continuous palliative sedation and assisted dying

    Open AccessGitte H Koksvik, Naomi Richards et al.ARTICLEHealth An Interdisciplinary…2022Cited by: 3References: 54

    Medicalisation is a pervasive feature of contemporary end of life and dying in Western Europe and North America. In this article, we focus on the relationship between two specific aspects of the medicalisation of dying: deep continuous palliative sedation until death and assisted dying. We draw upon a qualitative interview study with 29 health professionals from three jurisdictions where assisted dying is lawful: Flanders, Belgium; Oregon, USA; a…

  • Immigration Ethics: Sacred and Secular

    Open AccessDavid Clark, David J Clark et al.ARTICLEReligions2022References: 25

    The U.S. and other nation-states regularly impose horrific harm on immigrants, would-be immigrants, refugees, and asylum seekers: 'migrants', for short. Migrants are regularly separated from their spouses and children, detained for long periods under brutal and dehumanizing conditions, forced to live in squalid camps, threatened with state-sanctioned violence, deported to foreign lands in which they have little social connection or means of suppo…

  • Globalization, first-foods systems transformations and corporate power: A synthesis of literature and data on the market and political practices of the transnational baby food industry

    Open AccessPhillip Baker, K Russ et al.ARTICLEGlobalization and Health2021

    BACKGROUND: The global milk formula market has 'boomed' in recent decades, raising serious concerns for breastfeeding, and child and maternal health. Despite these developments, few studies have investigated the global expansion of the baby food industry, nor the market and political practices corporations have used to grow and sustain their markets. In this paper, our aim is to understand the strategies used by the baby food industry to shape 'f…

  • Trust Zones: A Path to a More Secure Internet Infrastructure

    Open AccessDavid Clark, kc claffyARTICLEJournal of Information Policy2021

    This article describes a data-driven approach to improve the security of the Internet infrastructure. We identify the key vulnerabilities, and describe why the barriers to progress are not just technical, but embedded in a complex space of misaligned incentive, negative externalities, lack of agreement as to priority and approach, and missing leadership. We describe current trends in how applications are designed on the Internet, which leads to i…

  • Representations of palliative care, euthanasia and assisted dying within advocacy declarations

    Open AccessHamilton Inbadas, José Miguel Carrasco et al.ARTICLEMortality2020

    It is well known that there are disagreements between the proponents of palliative care and of euthanasia or assisted dying, often with little common ground,shaping the end of life discourse internationally. Advocacy documents or 'declarations'constitute a significant feature of this discourse. The aim of this study was to explore the content of such declarations and to focus on what they can tell us about palliative care and assisted dying and t…

  • The Global Spread of Death Café: A Cultural Intervention Relevant to Policy

    Open AccessNaomi Richards, Gitte H Koksvik et al.ARTICLESocial Policy and Society2020Cited by: 3References: 6

    New demographic and epidemiological trends mean people are dying at older ages and over long periods of time, from multiple, chronic illnesses. There is a perception that these growing and changing needs will require novel community responses. One starting point is having ‘conversations’ about dying and death, and in this the phenomenon of ‘Death Café’ merits attention. In the first study of its kind, we report on interviews with forty-nine Death…

  • “A Company of Rogues”: Richard Head and the Irish Picaresque

    Open AccessDavid ClarkARTICLEEstudios Irlandeses2019

    There has been a tendency in recent critical studies on crime fiction to reject, at least partially, the canon and pro-Enlightenment focus that the history of the genre had been given by the majority of critics. Crime fiction, it was often claimed, was “rooted in pre-modern enigma stories, implying that rationality was the guiding light

    The authors Michaud-Létourneau et al. have identified three main drivers that large initiatives should adopt to enhance their effectiveness in advocacy for policy change: (a) the use of an explicit advocacy approach, (b) the creation of a strategic group of actors, and (c) the realization of 15 critical tasks, more specifically related to implementation of the International Code of Marketing of Breast-milk Substitutes (the Code) (Michaud-Létourne…
