Unintentional paediatric paracetamol overdose
Paracetamol poisoning is the leading cause of paediatric acute liver failure in Australia. This study aimed to describe patterns and characteristics of unintentional paracetamol overdose in children, with a focus on dosing errors, reported to Australia’s largest Poisons Information Centre. Records regarding unintentional paracetamol overdose for individuals aged < 12 years old were extracted from the New South Wales Poisons Information Centre dat…

Neonatal blood lead concentration predicts medium term lead-related outcomes in children ≤5 years old with congenital lead poisoning
Mother-to-child-transmission of lead via the placenta is known to result in congenital lead toxicity. Between 2010 and 2021, Médecins Sans Frontières and other stakeholders responded to a severe lead poisoning outbreak related to artisanal gold mining in Northern Nigeria. Extensive environmental remediation occurred following outbreak identification; source control efforts are ongoing within the community. We aimed to describe the prevalence of c…
Hospital admissions for paracetamol poisoning declined following codeine re-scheduling in Australia
Codeine re-scheduling in Australia appears to have reduced paracetamol poisoning-related hospital admissions
Trends in transdermal fentanyl utilisation and fatal fentanyl overdose across Australia (2003–2015)
Macronutrient Intake in Pregnancy and Child Cognitive and Behavioural Outcomes
Prenatal nutrient exposures can impact on brain development and disease susceptibility across the lifespan. It is well established that maternal macronutrient intake during pregnancy influences foetal and infant development. Therefore, we hypothesise that macronutrient intakes during pregnancy are correlated with cognitive development during early childhood. The current study aimed to investigate the relationship between maternal macronutrient in…

Potentially inappropriate benzodiazepine use in Australian adults
The impact of Australian legislative changes on synthetic cannabinoid exposures reported to the New South Wales Poisons Information Centre
Policymaking ‘under the radar’
BACKGROUND: Suicide in Sri Lanka is a major public health problem and in 1995 the country had one of the highest rates of suicide worldwide. Since then reductions in overall suicide rates have been largely attributed to efforts to regulate a range of pesticides. The evolution, context, events and implementation of the key policy decisions around regulation are examined. METHODS: This study was undertaken as part of a broader analysis of policy in…
Changing epidemiologic patterns of deliberate self poisoning in a rural district of Sri Lanka
Acute poisoning remains a major public health problem in rural Sri Lanka and pesticide poisoning remains the most important poison. However, cases of medicinal drug poisoning have recently dramatically increased. Youth in these rural communities remain very vulnerable to acute poisoning and the problem is so common that school-based primary prevention programs may be worthwhile.Lalith Senarathna, Shaluka F Jayamanna, Patrick J Kelly, Nick A Buckl…
A community-based cluster randomised trial of safe storage to reduce pesticide self-poisoning in rural Sri Lanka
This paper describes a large effectiveness study of a community intervention to reduce the burden of intentional poisoning in rural Sri Lanka. The study builds on a strong partnership between provincial health services, local and international researchers, and local communities. We discuss issues in relation to randomisation and contamination, engaging control villages, the intervention, and strategies to improve adherence
Personal and professional challenges in the management of deliberate self-poisoning patients in rural Sri Lanka
Addressing professional isolation through educational and trainee programs for doctors and reducing the variance in expectations between professional groups and the community has the potential to improve delivery of care for self-poisoning patients
