Impact of interventions targeting social isolation and loneliness for older adults with cardiovascular disease
Older adults are particularly vulnerable to social isolation and loneliness, and these factors amplify modifiable cardiovascular (CVD) risk factors for those with existing CVD. A range of interventions have been reported in the literature. This systematic review aimed to evaluate the impact of non-pharmacological interventions targeting loneliness and social isolation experienced by older adults in this target group, who are living independently …
Trends in Food and Beverage Portion Sizes in Australian Children; a Time-Series Analysis Comparing 2007 and 2011–2012 National Data
In 2011-2012 approximately 26% of Australian children aged between 5-17 years were reported to be overweight or obese. Furthermore, the increase in prevalence of overweight and obesity among US children parallels reported increases in energy intake and portion sizes of common foods, leading to the recognition that availability of larger portion sizes contributes to the rise in overweight and obesity prevalence. Thus, the aim of this time-series a…

The course was designed for undergraduate and youth artists with diverse social, cultural and artistic backgrounds to work in collaboration as part of an arts-based action research study. In part…
Food and beverage portion sizes in Australian children
Small changes in portion sizes were detected over 12 years in Australian children and adolescents with the degree of change varying by sex, age and food group. Knowledge of usual portion sizes could inform programs targeting appropriate serving sizes selection in children and adolescents

However, in the field of African HIV care where mortality is high, palliative care has been shown to be largely lacking. This study aimed to measure the prevalence of multidimensional palliative care needs of pa…
