  • Optimising the end to end care pathway for older adults; A multi-stakeholder informed approach

    Open AccessAlison H Holmes, Marc Cunningham et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2025

    Introduction: As life expectancy increases, the proportion of older adults is rising in many countries. Ireland is no exception, where the older person population is expected to increase to 1.56 million by 2051. However, these projected increases in life expectancy do not equate to increases in “healthy life expectancy”, with latter years often characterised by age-related multi-morbidity due to one or more chronic diseases, resulting in an impor…

  • Analytical and diagnostic performance characteristics of reverse-transcriptase loop-mediated isothermal amplification assays for dengue virus serotypes 1–4

    Open AccessPaul Arkell, Dumrong Mairiang et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2023

    Dengue is a mosquito-borne disease caused by dengue virus (DENV) serotypes 1–4 which affects 100–400 million adults and children each year. Reverse-transcriptase (RT) quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) assays are the current gold-standard in diagnosis and serotyping of infections, but their use in low-middle income countries (LMICs) has been limited by laboratory infrastructure requirements. Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP…

  • The elephant in the room

    Open AccessVrinda Nampoothiri, Oluchi Nneka Mbamalu et al.ARTICLEHealth Expectations2023

    OBJECTIVE: The irrational use of antibiotics is a leading contributor to antibiotic resistance. Antibiotic stewardship (AS) interventions predominantly focus on prescribers. This study investigated the influence and participation of inpatients in infection-related care, including antibiotic decision-making, within and across two tertiary hospitals in South Africa (Cape Town) and India (Kerala). METHODS: Through ethnographic enquiry of clinical pr…

  • A Team's Journey Toward More Equitable Philanthropic Research and Evaluation Practices

    Open AccessKimberly Spring, Maria Fernanda Mata et al.ARTICLEThe Foundation Review2023

    This article describes the journey of the Research and Evaluation team at the Annie E. Casey Foundation to develop an approach that would allow us to rethink and deepen how we, as funders of research and evaluation, center equity in our practice. In particular, we explain how, through this process, we began to focus on what it means to orient research and evaluation toward participant owners and came to examine the assumptions, expectations, habi…

  • Shortage of essential antimicrobials

    Open AccessNusrat Shafiq, Avaneesh Kumar Pandey et al.ARTICLEBMJ Global Health2021

    The lack of access to safe and effective antimicrobials for human populations is a threat to global health security and a contributor to the emergence and spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). The increasingly common shortages of antimicrobials are an additional threat to the emergence of AMR. While the threat of such drug shortages is most acutely experienced in low-income and middle-income settings, their consequences impact the quality and…

  • A multilevel neo-institutional analysis of infection prevention and control in English hospitals

    Open AccessYiannis Kyratsis, Raheelah Ahmad et al.ARTICLESociology of Health & Illness2019References: 45

    Despite committed policy, regulative and professional efforts on healthcare safety, little is known about how such macro-interventions permeate organisations and shape culture over time. Informed by neo-institutional theory, we examined how inter-organisational influences shaped safety practices and inter-subjective meanings following efforts for coerced culture change. We traced macro-influences from 2000 to 2015 in infection prevention and cont…
