‘It takes you to the limit’
OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to understand symptom experiences, illness narratives, and help-seeking behaviours in women living with systemic symptoms associated with their breast implants (SSBI) and seeking explant surgery. METHODS AND MEASURES: Patients for this study were recruited from a larger prospective comparative study on SSBI over a 3-year period. Semi-structured qualitative interviews using an adapted version of the McGil…
Matching, friending, and swiping for sperm donors
There has been an increase in people using online, unregulated websites and social networking groups to look for potential sperm donors in the hope of becoming parents. This practice is facilitated by online platforms which have been designed to connect the two parties who are looking to receive or donate sperm. We aimed to systematically map the scope, nature and characteristics of the digital landscape of online sperm donation (OSD). Using 51 s…
Research Protocol for Forging New Families in Contemporary Contexts
People looking for sperm ('recipients') and people providing sperm ('donors') are increasingly connecting via informal online platforms, such as 'connection websites' and social networking sites. Typically, research has not focused on this route to conception. Little is known about how people involved in online sperm donation initiate, negotiate, sustain or end their relationships with each other, how power or influence operates within this conte…
The Unspoken Voice
As speech and language therapists, we explored theories of communication and voice that are familiar to our profession and found them an inadequate basis on which to generate deep and rich analysis of the qualitative data from people who have communication difficulties and who use augmentative and alternative communication. Expanding our conceptual toolkit to include the work of John Shotter allowed us to reconceptualise voice and where it is eme…
Exploring invisibility and epistemic injustice in Long Covid—A citizen science qualitative analysis of patient stories from an online Covid community
BACKGROUND: In 2020, the long-lasting effects of the Covid-19 virus were not included in public messages of risks to public health. Long Covid emerged as a novel and enigmatic illness with a serious and life-changing impact. Long Covid is poorly explained by objective medical tests, leading to widespread disbelief and stigma associated with the condition. The aim of this organic research is to explore the physical and epistemic challenges of livi…

Why do women attend late for antenatal booking? A qualitative interview study exploring the perspectives of service users and stakeholders
Introduction Delayed access to antenatal care (‘late booking’) has been linked to increased mortality and morbidity for mother and baby. The Confidential Enquiry into Maternal Deaths in the UK (2007) found that 17% of the women who died from Direct or Indirect causes booked for maternity care after 22 weeks gestation, had missed >4 routine antenatal visits or didn't seek care at all. Little explanatory qualitative research has been undertaken out…
Physical activity, quality of life, weight status and diet in adolescents
Critical perspectives on 'consumer involvement' in health research
Researchers in the area of health and social care (both in Australia and internationally) are encouraged to involve consumers throughout the research process, often on ethical, political and methodological grounds, or simply as 'good practice'. This article presents findings from a qualitative study in the UK of researchers' experiences and views of consumer involvement in health research. Two main themes are presented. First, we explore the 'kno…
Health researchers’ attitudes towards public involvement in health research
Objective To investigate health researchers’ attitudes to involving the public in research. Background Public involvement in research is encouraged by the Department of Health in the UK. Despite this, the number of health researchers actively involving the public in research appears to be limited. There is little research specifically addressing the attitudes of health researchers towards involving the public: how they interpret the policy, what …
Physical activity among adolescents and barriers to delivering physical education in Cornwall and Lancashire, UK
Despite many positive perceptions of the delivery of PE in schools, it is evident that barriers still exist within that delivery which discourages physical activity. More research is needed to particularly address the complex issues of elitism and the ethos of PA in schools

A Case-Study on the Effects of the Menstrual Cycle and the Use of a Combined Oral Contraceptive Pill on the Performance of a Western Classical Singer
This case study explores the objective and psychologically perceived effects of the menstrual cycle and the use of a combined oral contraceptive pill on the singing performance of a western classical female singer. Objective measures of vocal parameters and hormonal concentrations were assessed during her natural menstrual cycle and during the use of an oral contraceptive pill. A diary was kept throughout the six months duration of the study and …
