Te Kōputu o Te Whakatōhea
The story of Te Whakatōhea is indistinguishable from its relationship with kai. Starting with the iwi’s migration narratives from Hawaiki to Aotearoa New Zealand, through an economic flourishing that followed initial contact with European settlers, then as a matter of survival following raupatu, kai has been an integral component of Te Whakatōhea culture and tikanga. Today this relationship with kai is manifest in the industry-leading aquaculture…
Synergies and trade-offs in the food-energy-water nexus of rural households
The sustainable management of food, energy, and water (FEW) resources is critical for rural development under China's Rural Revitalization Strategy. However, a systematic understanding of the household-level FEW nexus remains limited. This study addressed this gap by developing a system dynamic model to simulate household FEW consumptions for traditional households in the North China Plain from 2015 to 2060. The model was applied to evaluate 23 p…

Effect of health warning labels on motivation towards energy-dense snack foods
Health warning labels (HWLs) show promise in reducing motivation towards energy-dense snack foods. Understanding the underlying mechanisms could optimise their effectiveness. In two experimental studies in general population samples (Study 1 n = 90; Study 2 n = 1382), we compared the effects of HWLs and irrelevant aversive labels (IALs) on implicit (approach) motivation towards unhealthy snacks, using an approach-avoidance task (Study 1), and a m…
Size and shape of plates and size of wine glasses and bottles
Smaller tableware (i.e. plates and wine glasses) decreases the amount of food and wine self-served in an initial serving. Future studies are required to generate estimates on selection and consumption in real world settings when numerous servings are possible.

Lagged Association between Climate Variables and Hospital Admissions for Pneumonia in South Africa
Pneumonia is a leading cause of hospitalization in South Africa. Climate change could potentially affect its incidence via changes in meteorological conditions. We investigated the delayed effects of temperature and relative humidity on pneumonia hospital admissions at two large public hospitals in Limpopo province, South Africa. Using 4062 pneumonia hospital admission records from 2007 to 2015, a time-varying distributed lag non-linear model was…

Electronic cigarette and smoking paraphernalia point of sale displays
E-cigarette and smoking paraphernalia POS displays are near ubiquitous and highly visible in major tobacco retailers in two cities in England. The impact of these displays on tobacco smoking in children and adults is unknown, meriting urgent research to assess their effect on susceptibility to tobacco smoking in children
Straight-sided beer and cider glasses to reduce alcohol sales for on-site consumption
BACKGROUND: Straight-sided glasses can slow the rate of lager consumption in a laboratory setting compared with curved glasses. Slower drinking rates may lower overall alcohol consumption. Glass shape is therefore a potential target for intervention. The aim of this randomised crossover trial was to estimate the impact of serving draught beer and cider in straight-sided glasses, compared with usual, predominantly curved glasses, on alcohol sales …
Image-and-text health warning labels on alcohol and food
Image-and-text health warning labels depicting bowel cancer showed greatest potential for reducing selection and consumption of alcoholic drinks and energy-dense snacks, although they were the least acceptable. Laboratory and field studies are needed to assess their impact on selection and consumption
The impact on selection of non-alcoholic vs alcoholic drink availability
Greater availability of non-alcoholic drinks, compared to alcoholic drinks, increased their online selection, an effect that may be larger when changing their relative availability, i.e., increasing the proportion of non-alcoholic drinks. Naturalistic studies are needed to determine the impact of availability interventions on reducing alcohol purchasing and consumption
Impact of health warning labels on snack selection
Excessive consumption of energy-dense food increases the risk of obesity, which in turn increases the risk of non-communicable diseases, including heart disease, type 2 diabetes and most non-smoking-related cancers. Health warning labels (HWLs) that communicate the adverse health consequences of excess energy consumption could reduce intake of energy-dense foods. The aim of the current study was to estimate the impact on selection of energy-dense…

Equity-Specific Effects of Interventions to Promote Physical Activity among Middle-Aged and Older Adults
Reducing social inequalities in physical activity (PA) has become a priority for public health. However, evidence concerning the impact of interventions on inequalities in PA is scarce. This study aims to develop and test the application of a strategy for re-analyzing equity-specific effects of existing PA intervention studies in middle-aged and older adults, as part of an international interdisciplinary collaboration. This article aims to descri…
Investigating associations between the built environment and physical activity among older people in 20 UK towns
BACKGROUND: Policy initiatives such as WHO Age Friendly Cities recognise the importance of the urban environment for improving health of older people, who have both low physical activity (PA) levels and greater dependence on local neighbourhoods. Previous research in this age group is limited and rarely uses objective measures of either PA or the environment. METHODS: We investigated the association between objectively measured PA (Actigraph GT3x…

Optimising measurement of health-related characteristics of the built environment
The role of the neighbourhood environment in influencing health behaviours continues to be an important topic in public health research and policy. Foot-based street audits, virtual street audits and secondary data sources are widespread data collection methods used to objectively measure the built environment in environment-health association studies. We compared these three methods using data collected in a nationally representative epidemiolog…
Diurnal patterns of objectively measured physical activity and sedentary behaviour in older men
Levels of MVPA and LIPA are highest in the morning (peak at 10-11 am) and decrease during the day. SB increases through the course of the day to peak in the evening. Interventions to encourage older men to be physically active may need to take account of current PA patterns, aiming to prolong active morning bouts of PA and/or reducing SB in the afternoon and evening hours
The influence of neighbourhood-level socioeconomic deprivation on cardiovascular disease mortality in older age
BACKGROUND: Evidence from longitudinal studies on the influence of neighbourhood socioeconomic factors in older age on cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality is limited. We aimed to investigate the prospective association of neighbourhood-level deprivation in later life with CVD mortality, and assess the underlying role of established cardiovascular risk factors. METHODS: A socially representative cohort of 3924 men, aged 60-79 years in 1998-2000…
OP86 Dietary Patterns in Older Men
Background Few studies have examined diet quality in older adults in Great Britain. We examined the influence of area of residence and early life social circumstances on dietary patterns among older British men. Methods We conducted a cross-sectional study of 4252 older men (aged 60-79 years) from the British Regional Heart Study. Food frequency questionnaire data were used to examine daily fruit and vegetable consumption and to generate two diet…
OP80 Inequalities in Heart Failure in Older Age
Background Few studies have examined the prospective associations between socioeconomic measures and incident heart failure, and little is known about possible mechanisms underlying the relationship. The aim of this study was to investigate the association of socioeconomic measures with incident heart failure in older adults and to examine possible underlying pathways. Methods A socially and geographically representative cohort of men aged 60–79 …

PS38 Sarcopenic Obesity and Risk of All-Cause and Cardiovascular Mortality in Older Men
Background Sarcopenic obesity refers to the age-associated loss of muscle mass coupled with high adiposity levels. Although it is known that both obesity and low muscle mass are associated with increased mortality, few studies to date have examined the combined effects of sarcopenia and obesity on all-cause or cardiovascular mortality. We examined the relationship between sarcopenic obesity and all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in older men.…
OP58 Is the Excess Risk of Myocardial Infarction Among People with Diabetes Falling Over Time
Background Incidence of myocardial infarction (MI) in the UK general population has declined considerably in recent years. However it is unclear whether the decline in MI risk has occurred among people with diabetes. People with diabetes have an estimated two-fold excess risk of MI, compared to those without diabetes. A differential trend in MI incidence among diabetic patients could correspond to a rise or fall in this excess risk, which has imp…
OP86 More Rapid Decline in CHD Incidence among Scottish Towns than among English towns from the 1980S to the 2000s
Background The incidence of coronary heart disease (CHD) has declined in the UK since the late 1970s. However, regional differences in this decline are unknown. We investigate the change in CHD incidence from the period 1980–1988 to 2000–2008 according to UK region. We also examine regional differences in changes in established coronary risk factors over these periods Methods The British Regional Heart Study recruited 7735 men between 1978 and 19…
Do perceptions of neighbourhood environment influence health? Baseline findings from a British survey of aging
Objectives: To investigate the relation between perceived neighbourhood environment, social contact and support, and self efficacy, on the health of older people. Design: British cross sectional population survey of people aged 65 and over. Participants: 999 people aged 65 plus living at home in Britain. Results: Regression modelling showed that high self efficacy had a strong independent association with better self rated health status and physi…

Native American rhetoric
This essay argues that understanding the rhetorical efforts of Native Americans to create an ethos capable of transcending cultural differences as a means of overcoming the imposition of a fundamentally mistaken identity and revitalizing tribal cultures has significant implications for our understanding of Native American rhetoric. On a broader scale, such study of Native American rhetoric can enhance our knowledge of how rhetoric functions exter…

Class and lifestyle ‘lock‐in’ among middle‐aged and older men
Health lifestyles are collective patterns of health risk behaviour that develop within a social habitus. An important area for research is the extent to which health lifestyles become more individualised over time and as people age, or whether health lifestyles remain socially structured. This article presents findings from a Multiple Correspondence Analysis of the British Regional Heart Study. Our findings suggest that smoking and alcohol use re…
Are social inequalities in mortality in Britain narrowing? Time trends from 1978 to 2005 in a population-based study of older men
OBJECTIVE: To examine whether social inequalities in all-cause and coronary heart disease (CHD) mortality in Britain have reduced between 1978 and 2005. DESIGN: A prospective study of a socioeconomically representative population. SETTING: 24 British towns. PARTICIPANTS: 7735 Men, aged 40-59 years at recruitment in 1978-1980 and followed up until 2005 through the National Health Service Central Register (164 120 person-years). MAIN OUTCOME MEASUR…

More rain and less thunder”
Through an analysis of the Nixon administration's rhetoric concerning Native Americans, this essay provides a framework for understanding rhetorical reconciliations between democratic political principle and repressive, even oppressive, political action. Our argument proceeds in three parts. We first provide a brief sketch of a key mechanism whereby practitioners of democracy seek to reconcile contradictions between principle and practice. We the…

Rhetorical Exclusion
The liars had fooled everyone, white people and Indians alike; as long as people believed the lies, they would never be able to see what had been done to them or what they were doing to each other... if the white people never looked beyond the lie, to see that theirs was a nation built on stolen land, then they would never be able to understand how they had been used by the witchery; they would never know that they were still being manipulated by…
New technology and industrial relations in United States and Australian shipping
This article examines the labour implications of technology transfer and diffusion in American and Australian shipping. The authors argue that technology innovation and transfer has been inhibited in these two cases by a range of factors including public policy and trade union behaviour. The authors’ findings are related to general models of the impact of technology on labour
Educating savages
From one vantage point, the education of Native Americans emerges from a narrative about how the members of a superior society constantly have extended themselves in their efforts to lead savages away from their quaint but untenable existence and toward salvation through civilization. From another vantage point, there is a story here to be told about the nature and consequences of rhetorical and cultural transformation. In examining the latter na…

John Dillwyn Llewelyn (1810–1887)
In the history of photography the earliest years are represented by a comparatively small number of people, remembered not only for their excellence, but often because their work features with some regularity in international salerooms. It is therefore gratifying to be able to introduce a new name onto the scene who was highly regarded by his contemporaries, and was at the same time related, by marriage, to William Henry Fox Talbot, the centenary…

Standards of weight-for-height for English children from age 5·0 to 11·0 years
Analysis of data from the National Study of Health and Growth confirms the need to take age into account when assessing weight-for-height of children aged 5+ to 10+. The method described by Cole leads to errors in the assessment of English and Scottish children, in particular of those tall for their age. This is mainly because the method employs a log(weight)-log(height) rather than a log(weight)-height relationship. Using the latter, weight-for-…
National Study of Health and Growth
Lower social class, several children, and overweight partner and increasing age were factors significantly associated with overweight in parents aged 20-55 years in England and Scotland. These associations were greater for women than men in both countries. These results support the contention that social circumstances contribute to overweight in adults. However, both the magnitude of the explained variation and the relative risk of each factor fo…
The New South Wales Ship Painters and Dockers 1900-1914
As an initial generalisation the small organisations placed constraints on the development of a centralised labour movement with a concerted industrial and political policy. In addition, a small membership has had various other implications. Limited financial resources meant that small unions could not draw on reserve funds to support sustained industrial action or large scale re cruitment drives. Financial constraints also affected the level of

The Incorrigible Waterfront and its Decline
The role of ad hoc government advisory and inquisitorial bodies in the twentieth century world of work has varied in its dimensions not only with national economic and political policy but also with different sectors of labour. Intervention in the affairs of Australian waterfront labour has been particularly marked since the port industries occupy a crucial strategic position in an overseas trading economy. Often as a pre-requisite or corollary o…
Deprivation
To detect reasons for the difference in mortality between Scotland and England and Wales a measure of deprivation was studied, comprising overcrowding, unemployment of men, low social class, and not having a car. Data for Scotland for 1980-2 showed this measure to be strongly associated with mortality, with gradients being particularly steep in young adults. Deprivation was much severe in Scotland than in England and Wales. These findings suggest…
