    Open AccessWalter P Wodchis, Robert J Redelmeier et al.ARTICLECanadian Journal of Public Health2025References: 23

    We demonstrate that in a single-payer health system, MHCs alleviate major barriers to care access for marginalized populations. Learnings provide context to the most salient factors influencing clients' decisions to seek care at MHCs and can inform how these outreach models are designed

  • How patients define success for integrated care

    Open AccessSabrina Chiodo, Meghan O’Neill et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2023

    Background: While many standardized surveys exist to measure patient experience, they are not designed to assess unique features of integrated care (IC) programs including transitions from hospital to community, satisfaction with homecare, or resources and supports provided post-discharge. The aim was to have patients lead efforts to develop a set of quality indicators for routine monitoring of patient experience in the University Health Network …

    This study contributed to the evidence base supporting life stage differences in the relationship between community belonging and self-perceived health. This is a starting point to identifying how age-graded differences in unmet social needs relate to population health interventions

    Alexia Camara-Medeiros, Lori Diemert et al.ARTICLETobacco Control2020

    More than half of youth and young adult regular e-cigarette users felt they had some level of addiction. The findings identify possible opportunities for targeted programming for education and treatment, as well as potential opportunities for policy change such as maximum allowable nicotine strengths

  • Marketing Iqos in a dark market

    Annalise Mathers, Rachel Schwartz et al.ARTICLETobacco Control2018

    These promotion activities have undoubtedly made substantial numbers of Ontarians aware of IQOS. Yet, the government has not provided guidance as to absolute and relative potential harms. Our observations of tactics to promote a new tobacco product in a dark market may inform government regulatory policy and non-governmental organisation efforts wherever heat-not-burn products are introduced

    Michael Chaiton, Lori Diemert et al.ARTICLETobacco Control2014

  • Origin and use of the 100 cigarette criterion in tobacco surveys

    Susan J Bondy, J Charles Victor et al.ARTICLETobacco Control2009

    Truly global standards and definitions will likely never exist for tobacco control surveillance. One difference across definitions of smoking status is whether or not a lifetime consumption of 100 cigarettes is a necessary criterion for ever and current smoking. Frequently asked questions about this measure demonstrate a need for information on its development and appropriateness in different settings. This commentary attempts to assemble informa…
