Patients’, caregivers’ and healthcare workers’ perspectives on integrating anxiety care in tuberculosis services in Pakistan
Up to 80% of active tuberculosis (TB) patients experience anxiety, threatening their treatment outcomes. The National TB Control Programme in Pakistan currently only provides mental health services for patients with multi-drug resistant TB, leaving those with drug sensitive TB (DSTB) unsupported. This study explored (1) experiences of anxiety and self-managed coping strategies used by patients with DSTB and their caregivers (2), current practice …
Barriers and drivers to childhood vaccinations in Forcibly Displaced Myanmar Nationals (FDMN)/Rohingya refugees in Cox’s Bazar, Bangladesh
About one million Forcibly Displaced Myanmar Nationals (FDMN)/Rohingya refugees live in the refugee camps of Cox’s Bazar, experiencing recurring vaccine-preventable disease outbreaks despite established vaccination programs. This scoping review focused on the evidence for individual and context barriers, drivers, and interventions for childhood vaccination uptake of FDMN/Rohingya refugees in Cox’s Bazar. Four databases and grey literature were sy…
Barriers and drivers to Covid-19 protective behaviours of forcibly displaced myanmar nationals (FDMN)/ rohingya refugees in Cox's bazar, Bangladesh
About 900.000 Forcibly Displaced Myanmar Nationals (FDMN)/ Rohingya refugees live in makeshift camps in Cox's Bazar, Bangladesh. During the COVID-19 pandemic, protective behaviors were particularly important in this setting of previous severe infectious disease outbreaks. To identify barriers, drivers and interventions for those behaviors, a scoping review of MEDLINE, Embase, Web of Science, Global Health and grey literature was conducted in Octo…
Health service providers' views on barriers and drivers to childhood vaccination of FDMN/Rohingya refugees
Background: Despite established vaccination programs, vaccine-preventable diseases persist among about 900,000 Forcibly Displaced Myanmar Nationals (FDMN)/Rohingya refugees in the world's largest refugee settlement in Bangladesh. Health service providers (HSPs) play a key role in the delivery of childhood vaccination programs. This study explored their views on individual and context barriers and drivers to childhood vaccination in this setting. …
Conducting tobacco control surveys among schoolchildren in Bangladesh, India and Pakistan
Most of the world’s 300 million smokeless tobacco (ST) users live in South Asia but ST policies for that region are poorly researched, developed and implemented. Longitudinal studies to understand the uptake and use of ST and smoking, and influences on these, such as health promotion strategies, are lacking. We planned to conduct longitudinal surveys among secondary school students in three countries with the highest ST burden: Bangladesh, India …
Multicomponent Behavioural Intervention during Pregnancy to Reduce Home Exposure to Second-Hand Smoke
The multicomponent behavioural intervention was feasible to deliver and was acceptable to the interventionists, pregnant women, and husbands. With the intervention, it was possible to recruit, randomise, and retain pregnant women in Bangladesh and India. The cotinine data will inform sample size calculations for a future definitive trial
Repurposing retail space
The retail sector is experiencing unprecedented change, from ongoing shifts in shopping behaviour to retailer rationalisation and business failure. Internationally, this is impacting the crucial economic and social role of many highly developed city centres. This paper examines how key stakeholders have responded to the challenges of adapting city centres for the future. Empirically, the paper draws on a series of repurposing schemes across five …
Barriers and drivers of positive Covid-19 vaccination behaviours among healthcare workers in Europe and Central Asia
Vaccination uptake is essential to controlling the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Healthcare workers (HCWs) play a critical role in receiving, recommending and delivering COVID-19 vaccination. Understanding the specific influences on each behaviour enables the development of targeted and tailored interventions to improve vaccination uptake. This paper presents a qualitative synthesis of HCWs’ individual and context barriers and drivers to these three…
Ownership diversity and fragmentation
Fragmentation of ownership has long been a recognised constraint to UK city centre development, a complexity that is growing in significance as centres try to manage the decline in physical retailing and transform obsolete retail units. Yet, our understanding of the structure of ownership and how that might be facilitating or inhibiting urban change remains weak. In this paper, the objective is to address this gap by examining the structure and d…
Not quite the ‘death of the high street’ in UK city centres
This paper explores the inter-connections between property use diversity, change of use, and the adaptive capacity within urban retailing systems. The retailing centres of five UK case study cities, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Hull, Liverpool, and Nottingham, are examined over a twenty-year period using original databases on property use and geospatial mapping techniques to employ property use richness and diversity metrics in a novel manner. Overall, th…
The experience economy in UK city centres
Since the 1990s the UK’s city centre high streets have been losing market share to out-of-town shopping and e-retailing. The shocks of the Global Financial Crisis and COVID-19 have hastened this and precipitated widespread store closures. The experience economy is increasingly promoted as a means to avert the ‘death of the high street’, and this prompts our study of its evolution. An exploration of the literature reveals the experience economy to…
Averting dead mall syndrome
As consumer habits evolve the role of purpose-built shopping centers is being severely tested. The phrase “dead mall syndrome” is now frequently used in North America and parts of Europe to describe shopping centers facing obsolescence. In this paper, we make purpose-built shopping centers in large UK cities our focus and consider the extent to which “dead mall syndrome” and “de-malling” are occurring on the UK’s city center high streets. Using a…

Evidence, Theory and Context
Although time consuming, intervention mapping was found to be a useful tool for developing a theory based intervention. The length of this process has implications for the way in which funding bodies allow for the development of interventions as part of their funding policy. The intervention will be evaluated in a cluster randomised trial involving 1350 employees from 5 different organisations, results available September 2009

More local patterns of area effect are further revealed, eg more mixed land use is associated with higher levels of walking in some but not all areas of the city, suggesting that the significance and magnitude of associations between built environment characteristics and walking are not the same across space. Discussion: Application and findings of the three approaches lead to distinct yet complementary conclusions about the environmenta…
Randomised cluster trial to support informed parental decision-making for the MMR vaccine
Whilst both the leaflet and the parent meeting reduced parents' decisional conflict, the parent meeting appeared to enable parents to act upon their decision leading to vaccination uptake
Communicating with parents about vaccination
BACKGROUND: A critical factor shaping parental attitudes to vaccination is the parent's interactions with health professionals. An effective interaction can address the concerns of vaccine supportive parents and motivate a hesitant parent towards vaccine acceptance. Poor communication can contribute to rejection of vaccinations or dissatisfaction with care. We sought to provide a framework for health professionals when communicating with parents …
