Exploring cultural safety and person- and patient-centred care in general practice
BACKGROUND: Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in Australia continue to experience significant health disparities rooted in the ongoing impacts of colonisation, systemic racism, and cultural disconnection. While patient-centred care (PCC) is widely promoted as a gold standard for high quality and respectful healthcare, its application to meet the unique needs of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander patients in general practice remains…
‘Communication Is Crucial’
INTRODUCTION: Value-based diagnostic tests improve patient safety. Understanding patient expectations can enhance the value of diagnostic tests in Emergency Departments. The aim of this study was to explore patient expectations about diagnostic tests to inform diagnostic stewardship in emergency medicine practice. METHODS: A qualitative study of adult patients who had received care at Townsville University Hospital Emergency Department was conduc…
Comparing the impact of feedback on excess calories and physical activity calorie equivalent (Pace) information on consumer behaviour in an online hypothetical restaurant setting
Information provision interventions to improve nutrition in the out-of-home food sector include providing calorie information at point of choice. Supplementary approaches also include providing feedback on physical activity calorie equivalent information (PACE) and/or the extent to which food orders exceed calorie guidelines. However, minimal research has compared the impact these different supplementary approaches have on consumer behaviour. Our…

Objectives To assess how the cultural safety of primary care-based chronic disease interventions for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians is determined. Methods Scoping review of peer-reviewed evaluations of chronic disease interventions for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander patients, in which cultural safety is an outcome. Searches included Scopus, Informit, OVID Medline, Emcare and CINAHL including all articles published until …
The impact of food marketing via video game live streaming on snack intake in adolescents
Objective: The marketing of foods and non-alcoholic beverages (hereafter: food) high in fat, salt and/or sugar (HFSS) is implicated in the development of poor dietary habits, overweight and obesity. Digital media, including video game live streaming platforms (VGLSP), are an increasingly prominent source of food marketing exposure, particularly for young people. This study aimed to experimentally examine the impact of food marketing via VGLSP on …
Out-of-home food selection behaviour in the presence and absence of price-based incentives in a virtual food delivery app
Out-of-home food selection behaviour in the presence and absence of price-based incentives in a virtual food delivery app
Policies restricting price-based incentives in the out-of-home (OOH) food sector could influence food-related behaviours and improve population diet. In the present study we assessed the impact of removing price-based incentives on consumer food selection through a virtual, hypothetical, OOH delivery platform. Participants ordered a hypothetical meal for their household using a virtual ordering platform which presented the menu of a popular UK pi…
Understanding the association between household food insecurity and diet quality
Household food insecurity - a lack of reliable access to food that is safe, nutritious, and sufficient for normal growth - is associated with physical and mental ill-health. In the UK and many countries worldwide, food insecurity has been exacerbated by the cost-of-living crisis and is a major public health concern. To identify potential points of intervention, it is important to understand how food insecurity is associated with individual-level …
Food in the news
Media reporting of the associations between intake of ultra-processed foods (UPFs) and negative health outcomes has become common. The objective was to examine the impact of exposure to public facing information about UPFs on consumers in a laboratory experiment. In a mixed-design, we used a methodology that resulted in participants (N = 96: mean age = 46.28, 49 % female) being exposed to one of three mock news articles detailing: (1) the negativ…
Salt warning labels as a public health policy in the out-of-home food sector
Experiences in times of Covid ‐19
The impact of the COVID‐19 pandemic and associated lockdown measures on child and family functioning requires ongoing investigation to understand its far‐reaching effects. This study investigated the experiences of 10‐year‐old children ( n = 2421) from the Growing Up in New Zealand longitudinal cohort during some of the strictest pandemic‐related lockdown measures of 2020, with the aim of examining the effects of these measures on several aspects…

Food and non-alcoholic beverage marketing via Fortnite streamers on Twitch
Food and non-alcoholic beverage (hereafter: food) marketing is prevalent in digital media and predominantly for foods high in fats, salt and/or sugar (HFSS). However, little is known about food marketing in videogame livestreaming platforms - a hybridisation of social and gaming media where individuals can watch influencers (i.e., streamers) play videogames. No studies have explored food cues within the streamed content or content likely to be vi…
User engagement with a popular food brand before, during and after a multi-day interactive marketing campaign on a popular live streaming platform
Objective: To assess viewer engagement of a food advertising campaign on the live streaming platform Twitch.tv, a social media platform that allows creators to live stream content and communicate with their audience in real time. Design: Observational analysis of chat comments across the Twitch platform containing the word ‘Wendy’s’ or ‘Wendys’ during a 5-day ad campaign compared with two 5-day non-campaign time periods. Comments were categorised…
Recall of food marketing on videogame livestreaming platforms
Digital media has become an integral part of adolescents’ lives. Mirroring this trend, food and non-alcoholic beverage (hereafter: food) brands increasingly promote products in digital media to maximise reach with young consumers. Videogame livestreaming platforms, where individuals can broadcast or watch streamed videogame footage, are a growing form of digital media. The top three platforms (market share by hours watched) are Twitch (72%), YouT…

A consistent definition of cultural safety within Australian health professional education
This scoping review aims to explore how cultural safety is defined in the Australian literature with health professional learners in clinical interactions. It maps how the components of the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency definition of cultural safety align with this evidence. Databases were systematically searched for original, peer-reviewed research that included Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, health …

A domestic cat (Felis silvestris catus) model of triarchic psychopathy factors
Geomemory and Genre Friction
This essay argues that contemporary African American novels turn to the gothic in order to dramatize the uncanny infrastructural and spatial afterlives of the plantation through a literary strategy it identifies as geomemory: a genre friction between mimetic and gothic modes in which postplantation spaces in the US South are imbued with temporal slippages such that past and present meet through the built environment. Tracing the plantation's envi…
WOmen's Action for Mums and Bubs (Womb) Trial Protocol
Introduction: In Australia, there have been improvements in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander maternal health, however inequities remain. There is increasing international evidence illustrating the effectiveness of Participatory Women’s Groups (PWGs) in improving Maternal and Child Health (MCH) outcomes. Using a non-randomised, cluster stepped-wedge implementation of a complex intervention with mixed methods evaluation, this study aims to tes…
Optimal Care Pathways for People with Lung Cancer- a Scoping Review of the Literature
INTRODUCTION: Much of the existing work around implementation of cancer optimal care pathways (OCP) has either focused exclusively on the clinical elements of care or has targeted individual stages in the cancer trajectory, rather than using a patient-centred or service delivery lens to inform the integration of care across the continuum. This review aimed to identify and summarise the available literature on lung cancer OCP. METHODS: A scoping r…

“It matters what matters we use to think other matters with,” Donna Haraway writes in her 2016 monograph Staying with the Trouble (12). This sentence can be understood as a manifesto for the entrance of new materialism into environmental cultural studies. At its best, new materialism marks the particularity of intimate material relations and refuses familiar Western narratives of the bounded, individualized human subject; at its worst, it shades …

Fantastic Futures? Cli-fi, Climate Justice, and Queer Futurity
Fantastic Futures? Cli-fi, Climate Justice, and Queer Futurity Rebecca Evans (bio) For me, the best of cli-fi does two things: it delivers a powerful and emotional story and it pushes the reader to wake up to the existential threat that man-made global warming poses to future generations. So good cli-fi is both a great read and a call to action, either direct or indirect. If it doesn’t wake us up, it’s just escapist entertainment. I am not intere…
