Experiences of service users receiving peer support in mental health services

The current study examined service users’ experiences of peer support in the UPSIDES Trial, delivered across diverse cultural and resource contexts, including high, middle and low-income countries. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 33 service users across six study sites (German…

Control Beliefs Mediate the Within-Person Relationship Between Everyday Activity Volition and Daily Subjective Age
Our findings suggest that older adults evaluate situational contexts and reflect on their control beliefs as a general psychological resource when determining their subjective age. These findings show the important role psychological resources play in determining subjective age from a within-person perspective and extended the within-person process proposed in previous theoretical models
Population ageing and health financing
There is a perception that population ageing will have deleterious effects on future health financing sustainability. We propose a new method-the Population Ageing financial Sustainability gap for Health systems (or alternatively, the PASH)-to explore how changes in the population age mix will affect health expenditures and revenues. Using a set of six anonymized country scenarios that are based on data from countries in Europe and the Western Pa…

The TPRN facilitates global collaborative action for improving the scientific evidence base in health emergency and disaster risk management (Health EDRM). In 2018, the WHO convened a meeting to identify key research questions, bringing together leadi…

Stigmata of Congenital Syphilis on a High Status Juvenile at Yuguë, Oaxaca, Mexico
Presented here is a case study from Mesoamerica whose dentition resembles the dental stigmata of others who have been described as having congenital syphilis. Found with a green stone bracelet, this child was likely a high-status member of a pre-Colombian population from the Pacific Coast of Oaxaca, Mexico (late Terminal Formative Period, 150 BCE – CE 250). While taphonomic changes precluded in-depth observations of the skeleton, dental traits su…
Can narrative medicine education contribute to the delivery of compassionate care? A review of the literature
Narrative Medicine has emerged as a discipline from within the medical humanities and takes inspiration from philosophy, literature, poetry, art and social sciences theories. In particular, it is underpinned by philosophical approaches such as phenomenology, postmodernism and narratology, proposing that clinicians must attend to the lived experience of their patients and apply the science to the person. Meanwhile, the link between medicine and li…

Place
In the seventeenth century the earth and its climates were conceived of as “limited by two Parallels , distant from the Equinoctial toward each Pole,” with five zones of “a certain quantity of land”—two temperate, two frigid, “and one Torrid .” Zones “distinguish[ed] the quality of the Air” in relation to heat and cold and the position of shadows. 1 Thomas Tryon’s sojourn in the West Indies confirmed a jaundiced view of human nature because Brito…
The reform of the essential medicines system in China
To achieve universal health care coverage, the Government of China invested in large–scale health care reform. One of the major reform components focuses on improving access to essential medicines to reduce high out–of–pocket medicines spending. The reform policies were comprehensive, and included systematic selection of essential medicines to improve availability, centralized procurement and tendering at provincial levels, pricing policies, prov…

Curiosity and Reality
This article traces the varied uses made of a single woodcut image over the course of 350 years. Its repeated issue, first in interregnum tracts – ostensibly newsbooks – in 1644, 1648 and 1651, from which it was archived by picture libraries in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, led to its publication in schools‘ textbooks in the late twentieth and twenty-first centuries and to widespread use by teachers throughout Britain.

Does the Quality of Prenatal Care Matter in Promoting Skilled Institutional Delivery? A Study in Rural Mexico
British Interventions in Early Modern Ireland
This book offers a perspective on Irish History from the late sixteenth to the end of the seventeenth century. Many of the chapters address, from national, regional and individual perspectives, the key events, institutions and processes that transformed the history of early modern Ireland. Others probe the nature of Anglo-Irish relations, Ireland's ambiguous constitutional position during these years and the problems inherent in running a multipl…
Nothing but the First Chaos’
This essay explores one way in which we might examine the attitudes that English settlers and administrators held about Ireland and the Irish in the seventeenth century. It attempts to do so by investigating the contexts in which a particular phrase was used: Ireland was described as a 'blank' or 'white' paper. The intellectual enquiry which formed its starting point was rather more ambitious. There was a seeming coincidence between the prominenc…
Soldiers, Writers and Statesmen of the English Revolution
This collection of essays examines the struggles of the people of England with the collapse of civilization as they knew it. As the country fell into civil war and near anarchy, the people sought out in word and action how to preserve what could still be preserved or to create new political, religious and social certainties. The authors discuss individuals or groups who were soldiers, writers or statesmen of the Civil Wars or the Interregnum, peo…
