Gender-specific aspects of socialisation and risk of cardiovascular disease among community-dwelling older adults
BACKGROUND: Gender influences cardiovascular disease (CVD) through norms, social relations, roles and behaviours. This study identified gender-specific aspects of socialisation associated with CVD. METHODS: A longitudinal study was conducted, involving 9936 (5,231 women and 4705 men) initially healthy, community-dwelling Australians aged 70 years or more from the ASPirin in Reducing Events in the Elderly (ASPREE) study and ASPREE Longitudinal Stu…
Trends and patterns of benzodiazepines and Z‐drugs prescriptions in Australian general practice
Development of the Covid-19 Real-Time Information System for Preparedness and Epidemic Response (CRISPER), Australia
Accurate and current information has been highlighted across the globe as a critical requirement for the COVID-19 pandemic response. To address this need, many interactive dashboards providing a range of different information about COVID-19 have been developed. A similar tool in Australia containing current information about COVID-19 could assist general practitioners and public health responders in their pandemic response efforts. The COVID-19 R…
Improving access to primary health care
All the interventions were a low-cost incremental attempt to address unmet health care needs of vulnerable populations. Change is possible; sustaining change may be more challenging. Access to PHC requires attention to both patient abilities and provider characteristics. The logic model proved to be a valuable heuristic tool for defining the objectives of the interventions, evaluating their impacts, and learning from the comparison of 'cases
Impact of economic factors, social health and stressful life events on physical health-related quality of life trajectories in older Australians
Health-related quality of life and all-cause mortality among older healthy individuals in Australia and the United States
Does healthcare inequity reflect variations in peoples’ abilities to access healthcare? Results from a multi-jurisdictional interventional study in two high-income countries
We showed that those at higher risk of social vulnerability are more likely to report problematic access and also have low scores on ability to seek, reach, pay, and engage with healthcare. Equity-oriented healthcare interventions should pay particular attention to enhancing people's abilities to access care in addition to modifying organizational processes and structures that reinforce social systems of discrimination or exclusion
Bullying and sexual abuse and their association with harmful behaviours, antidepressant use and health-related quality of life in adulthood
The use of self-labelling questions to investigate sensitive areas such as bullying and sexual abuse in a survey is feasible. Such questions provided estimates that are consistent with findings from studies using more detailed instruments. Bullying and sexual abuse have an additive adverse association with various outcomes. Identifying survivors of both forms of abuse is important to avoid more serious consequences
Predictors of weight stigma experienced by middle-older aged, general-practice patients with obesity in disadvantaged areas of Australia
The trial was registered with the Australian Clinical Trials Registry ACTRN126400102162
Quality of Life for 19,114 participants in the ASPREE (ASPirin in Reducing Events in the Elderly) study and their association with sociodemographic and modifiable lifestyle risk factors
Lower educational level and unemployment increase the impact of cardiometabolic conditions on the quality of life

Urinary Incontinence has been associated with psychological effects such as depression. We aimed in this study to explore the subjective experience of the burden of urinary incontinence, in relation to mental health, in order to explain how these conditions interact. A qualitative study was undertaken using the Framework Approach to analyse in-depth interviews with nineteen women regarding their experiences with psychosocial outcomes for those wi…
A telephone-supported cardiovascular lifestyle programme (CLIP) for lipid reduction and weight loss in general practice patients
Objective To evaluate a primary prevention care model using telephone support delivered through an existing health call centre to general practitioner-referred patients at risk of developing CVD, using objective measures of CVD risk reduction and weight loss. Design Participants were randomised into two groups: (i) those receiving a telephone-supported comprehensive lifestyle intervention programme (CLIP: written structured diet and exercise advi…
Is integration an add-on or a new way of working for health professionals in co-located medical practices
Characteristically health services within the community are not separated based on illness/condition but rather on profession for example, GP services, physiotherapy clinics. In the primary health sector government policy at federal and state levels has established integrated health services. Functional and operationalised integration does not spontaneously arise from colocating health professionals. Despite primary health reforms there is no pre…
Can Items Used in 4-Year-Old Well-Child Visits Predict Children’s Health and School Outcomes
An ethical justification for the Chronic Care Model (CCM)
Background: Chronic diseases are major causes of morbidity and mortality in developed countries. Their effects can be mitigated by high quality evidence‐based care, but this is not the norm in most systems. The Chronic Care Model (CCM) is an evidence‐based policy response to this practice gap, which uses multiple strategies to promote the quality of chronic care. Objective: To review CCM with an ethical lens. Methods: We reviewed the published em…
