Vulnerable and Forgotten
The COVID-19 pandemic has caused, and continues to cause, unprecedented disruption in England. The impact of the pandemic on the English education system has been significant, especially for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). While it was encouraging that the educational rights of children and young people with SEND were highlighted during the COVID-19 pandemic, Government decision-making appeared to…
Canadian Alliance for Healthy Hearts and Minds
Information collected in the indigenous cohort will be used to assist communities to develop local management strategies for chronic disease, and can be used collectively to understand the contextual, environmental, socioeconomic, and biological determinants of differences in health status in harmony with First Nations beliefs and reality
Time to Evaluate Diabetes and Guide Health Research and Policy Innovation
Many investments have been made to help address the rising prevalence and associated costs of diabetes, but there has been minimal evaluation to assess their value. A comprehensive literature review and five expert committee meetings were conducted to iteratively conceptualize and develop a Diabetes Evaluation Framework (DEFINE). Building on existing frameworks, DEFINE provides an evidence-based approach for evaluating diabetes. The framework is …
Capacity-building and Participatory Research Development of a Community-based Nutrition and Exercise Lifestyle Intervention Program (Nelip) for Pregnant and Postpartum Aboriginal Women
Objectives were to gather information from Talking Circles of Aboriginal women who participated in a maternal Nutrition and Exercise Lifestyle Intervention Program (NELIP) to identify strategies to bring NELIP into the community. Twelve First Nations women participated. Several main themes were identified regarding health: balance, knowledge/education and time management. Benefits of the NELIP were improvement in health, stamina, stress, and a he…
Lessons Learned in Using Community-Based Participatory Research to Build a National Diabetes Collaborative in Canada
The CIRCLE national CBPR multisite collaborative is unprecedented in Canada, and provides a feasible model for other studies. Using CBPR on a national scale exacerbates challenges commonly faced with single-site or multisite research, but the benefits provided in developing partnerships based on mutual trust and goals makes it of great importance
The Geography of Diabetes in London, Canada
Recent reports aimed at improving diabetes care in socially disadvantaged populations suggest that interventions must be tailored to meet the unique needs of the local community-specifically, the community's geography. We have examined the spatial distribution of diabetes in the context of socioeconomic determinants of health in London (Ontario, Canada) to characterize neighbourhoods in an effort to target these neighbourhoods for local level com…
Dietary intake and development of a quantitative food-frequency questionnaire for a lifestyle intervention to reduce the risk of chronic diseases in Canadian First Nations in north-western Ontario
Objectives To characterise the diet of First Nations in north-western Ontario, highlight foods for a lifestyle intervention and develop a quantitative food-frequency questionnaire (QFFQ). Design Cross-sectional survey using single 24 h dietary recalls. Setting Eight remote and semi-remote First Nations reserves in north-western Ontario. Subjects 129 First Nations (Oji-Cree and Ojibway) men and women aged between 18 and 80 years. Results The great…
Food-related behavior, physical activity, and dietary intake in First Nations 1 – a population at high risk for diabetes
Diabetes prevention programs for First Nations should focus on improving physical activity and dietary intake by targeting specific risk group needs. Food knowledge, self-efficacy, outcome expectations, and intention are important factors in understanding those needs
How useful are Pharmaceuticals in managing diarrhoeal diseases in developing countries
Diarrhoea can be effectively and inexpensively managed with oral rehydration solution and adequate dietary intake. However, this frequent and potentially life-threatening illness is commonly mismanaged with Pharmaceuticals of no proven efficacy. Antimicrobial therapy, instead of being limited to the few specifically indicated conditions, is widely used, exposing patients to a risk of side-effects and contributing to the development of resistance …
