  • Typology of Mental Health Peer Support Work Components

    Open AccessYasuhiro Kotera, Chris Newby et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of Mental…2023

    The employment of mental health peer support (PS) is recommended in national and international mental health policy, and widely implemented across many countries. The key components of PS remain to be identified. This study aimed to develop a typology of components involved in one-to-one PS for adults in mental health services. A systematised review was performed to establish a preliminary long list of candidate components, followed by expert con…

  • Double-counting of populations in evidence synthesis in public health

    Open AccessHumaira Hussein, Clareece R Nevill et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2022

    While common practices currently used can mitigate some of the impact of double-counting of participants in evidence synthesis including real-world and observational studies, there is a clear need for methodological and guideline development to address this increasingly significant issue

  • A decision analytic model to investigate the cost-effectiveness of poisoning prevention practices in households with young children

    Open AccessFelix Achana, Alex J Sutton et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2016

    Education offers better value for money than more intensive but expensive strategies for preventing medicinal poisonings, but is only likely to be cost-effective at £30,000 per QALY gained for families in disadvantaged areas and for those with more than one child. There was considerable uncertainty in cost-effectiveness estimates due to paucity of evidence on model parameters. Policy makers should consider both costs and effectiveness of competin…

  • Cost-effectiveness of interventions for increasing the possession of functioning smoke alarms in households with pre-school children

    Open AccessPedro Saramago, NICOLA J COOPER et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2014

    Assessing cost-effectiveness, as well as effectiveness, is important in a public sector system operating under a fixed budget restraint. As highlighted in this study, the more effective interventions (in this case the more complex interventions) may not necessarily be the ones considered the most cost-effective

  • Recommendations for examining and interpreting funnel plot asymmetry in meta-analyses of randomised controlled trials

    Open AccessJonathan Sterne, J A C Sterne et al.ARTICLEBMJ2011

    Funnel plots, and tests for funnel plot asymmetry, have been widely used to examine bias in the results of meta-analyses. Funnel plot asymmetry should not be equated with publication bias, because it has a number of other possible causes. This article describes how to interpret funnel plot asymmetry, recommends appropriate tests, and explains the implications for choice of meta-analysis model

  • Language Achievement in Children Who Received Cochlear Implants Between 1 and 2 Years of Age

    Louise Duchesne, Alex J Sutton et al.ARTICLEThe Journal of Deaf Studies and…2009

    This study examined receptive and expressive vocabulary and grammar achievement of French-speaking children (n = 27) who received a cochlear implant (CI) between the age of 1 and 2. Standardized measures of language achievement were administered and the language levels attained by children with CIs were compared with that of the normative sample of same-age hearing peers for each measure. As a group, children exhibited language levels within norm…

  • Contour-enhanced meta-analysis funnel plots help distinguish publication bias from other causes of asymmetry

  • Synthesizing qualitative research

    Open AccessMary Dixon-Woods, Andrew Booth et al.ARTICLEQualitative Research2007

    Although there is increasing demand for syntheses of qualitative research, little is known about papers that aim to report such syntheses. We searched for published reports of attempts to conduct syntheses of qualitative research in health and healthcare. Papers were included if they were published between 1988 and 2004, in the English language, and in a peer-reviewed journal. We identified a modest body of literature (42 papers) reporting synthe…

  • Conducting a critical interpretive synthesis of the literature on access to healthcare by vulnerable groups

    Open AccessMary Dixon-Woods, Debbie Cavers et al.ARTICLEBMC Medical Research Methodology2006

    BACKGROUND: Conventional systematic review techniques have limitations when the aim of a review is to construct a critical analysis of a complex body of literature. This article offers a reflexive account of an attempt to conduct an interpretive review of the literature on access to healthcare by vulnerable groups in the UK METHODS: This project involved the development and use of the method of Critical Interpretive Synthesis (CIS). This approach…

  • How can systematic reviews incorporate qualitative research? A critical perspective

    Open AccessMary Dixon-Woods, Sheila Bonas et al.ARTICLEQualitative Research2006Citada por: 31Referências: 4

    Systematic review has developed as a specific methodology for searching for, appraising and synthesizing findings of primary studies, and has rapidly become a cornerstone of the evidence-based practice and policy movement. Qualitative research has traditionally been excluded from systematic reviews, and much effort is now being invested in resolving the daunting methodological and epistemological challenges associated with trying to move towards …

  • Synthesising qualitative and quantitative evidence

    Open AccessMary Dixon-Woods, Shona Agarwal et al.ARTICLEJournal of Health Services…2005

    BACKGROUND: The limitations of traditional forms of systematic review in making optimal use of all forms of evidence are increasingly evident, especially for policy-makers and practitioners. There is an urgent need for robust ways of incorporating qualitative evidence into systematic reviews. OBJECTIVES: In this paper we provide a brief overview and critique of a selection of strategies for synthesising qualitative and quantitative evidence, rang…
