Patient and family consent for publication
The objective of this study was to identify compliance with journal policies on documenting consent to publish case studies and to discuss the ethical framework specific to the creation and publication of case studies. Textual analysis of case studies published between 2019 and 2024 at a single institution and evaluation of their compliance with journal policies and emerging ethical standards. 229 case reports were published between 2019 and 2024…
A Scoping Review of Empirical Research on Research Ethics Board Membership and Expertise
REB membership and its local idioculture play a key role in the decisions made. Little evidence exists as to what composition of membership expertise and training creates the conditions for a board to be most effective. This scoping review of the empirical research on REB membership and expertise aims to outline what evidence has been gathered and what gaps exist. Our main research question was: What empirical research exists on how research ethi…
Healing After Gender-Based Violence
Gender-based violence (GBV) is a significant violation of human rights, requiring specific understanding of how individuals heal and recover after these experiences. This article reports on findings of a qualitative metasynthesis that examined the nature of healing after GBV through the perspectives of female-identifying survivors. Empirical studies were identified by a search of peer-reviewed articles via electronic databases. Studies were inclu…
Leveraging Resilience-supportive Strategies to Enhance Protective Factors in Young Sexual Minority Men
Behavioral HIV interventions focused on strengthening young sexual minority men's (SMM) internal (assets) and external (resources) protective factors are promising, yet their evaluation as resilience-supportive strategies to minimize or negate HIV-related risks remain understudied. The objective of this scoping review was to describe resilience-supportive intervention strategies that have been used to achieve desired HIV behavioral outcomes and t…
Strong, vertical TB programme embedded in a developing primary healthcare system
Health Policy and Planning, doi: 10.1093/heapol/czx079.

Are scientific research outputs aligned with national policy makers’ priorities? A case study of tuberculosis in Cambodia
With funding for tuberculosis (TB) research decreasing, and the high global disease burden persisting, there are calls for increased investment in TB research. However, justification of such investments is questionable, when translation of research outputs into policy and health care improvements remains a challenge for TB and other diseases. Using TB in Cambodia as a case study, we investigate how evidence needs of national policy makers are add…
A strong TB programme embedded in a developing primary healthcare system is a lose-lose situation
As exemplified by the situation in Cambodia, disease specific (vertical) health programmes are often favoured when the health system is fragile. The potential of such an approach to impede strengthening of primary healthcare services has been studied from a health systems perspective in terms of access and quality of care. In this bottom-up, qualitative study we investigate patient and community member experiences of health services when a strong…
“The post-antibiotic apocalypse” and the “war on superbugs”
Discourses evoking an antibiotic apocalypse and a war on superbugs are emerging just at a time when so-called “catastrophe discourses” are undergoing critical and reflexive scrutiny in the context of global warming and climate change. This article combines insights from social science research into climate change discourses with applied metaphor research based on recent advances in cognitive linguistics, especially with relation to “discourse met…

The Potential of a Methodology for University-wide Multimedia and Educational Technology Evaluation
This paper reports on the methodology used for a review conducted at the University of Melbourne to determine the impact on teaching, learning and student study habits of multimedia and educational technology. Of particular methodological interest among the multiple components of the review was a quasi-controlled study of student attitudes towards and experiences of using educational technology. These were gathered using a targeted student sample…

The Market in Australian Higher Education and the Concept of Student as Informed Consumer
Government attempts to enhance the quality of higher education through the encouragement of market forces are based on an assumption that students are informed consumers making rational choices of higher education courses and institutions. This article examines some of the problems associated with this approach, in particular the limitations on applicants' knowledge and understanding of the higher education system, revealed in a recent survey of …
