Eclampsia among adolescent mothers in low- and middle-Income countries
Everyday, approximately 800 pregnant women die from preventable causes, with 95% of these deaths occurring in low- and middle-income countries. Adolescent mothers are disproportionally affected. Hypertensive disorders, including eclampsia, contribute to around 20% of direct maternal deaths, many of which are preventable with simple, cost-effective interventions. This study aims to quantify the risk of eclampsia among adolescent mothers in low- an…
The UK Pregnancies Better Eating and Activity Trial (Upbeat); Pregnancy Outcomes and Health Behaviours by Obesity Class
The effectiveness of antenatal intervention in women with increasing obesity is unknown. This study investigated whether there was a differential effect of antenatal intervention on diet, physical activity and pregnancy outcomes in women stratified by obesity class using data from the UK Pregnancies Better Eating and Activity Trial (UPBEAT) ( n = 1555). The stratification was by World Health Organization classifications: Class I, II and III (30-3…
Is There an Association Between Diet, Physical Activity and Depressive Symptoms in the Perinatal Period? An Analysis of the Upbeat Cohort of Obese Pregnant Women
Glycaemic load may be a useful focus for interventions aiming to optimise the mental health of obese women in the perinatal period
Maternal and perinatal adverse outcomes in women with pre-eclampsia cared for at facility-level in South Africa
BACKGROUND: Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy contribute to 14% of all maternal deaths, the majority of which occur in low- and middle-income countries. The aim of the study was to describe the maternal and perinatal clinical outcomes of women with pre-eclampsia living in middle- and low-income countries. METHODS: The study was a prospective observational study of women with pre-eclampsia (n = 1547, 42 twin pregnancies) at three South African t…
Development and validation of a measure of health literacy in the UK
The NVS-UK is a valid measure of HL. Its acceptability and ease of application makes it an ideal tool for use in the UK. It has potential uses in public health research including epidemiological surveys and randomized controlled trials, and in enabling practitioners to tailor care to patient need
Ethnicity and attitudes to deceased kidney donation
Community attitudes in Barbados are favourable to deceased donation based on a system of informed consent. Comparison with south London data supports the hypothesis that the relatively high prevalence of negative attitudes to deceased donation among disadvantaged ethnic minorities in high income countries may reflect feelings of marginalization and lack of belonging

Maintaining compliance to ivermectin in communities in two West African countries
We have investigated various aspects related to managing wide-scale ivermectin distribution schemes within randomized controlled trials in communities where onchocerciasis is endemic. Multiple logistic regression analysis of determinants of compliance to five doses of ivermectin in 589 people in Sierra Leone showed independent significant associations with leopard skin depigmentation, the severity of side effects of treatment, fulfilling the excl…
