Diabetes care for people experiencing homelessness in the UK
Introduction People experiencing homelessness (PEH) face food insecurity, unstable housing and fragmented services that render conventional diabetes pathways unworkable and amplify complications. Methods Between January and April 2024, we conducted a nationwide, cross-sectional mixed-methods survey of front-line professionals via NHS, inclusion-health and voluntary-sector networks, analysing quantitative data ( n = 104) with ANOVA, Kruskal–Wallis…
Factors Affecting the Integration of Dental Services Into Health and Social Care for People With Complex Needs
BACKGROUND: People with complex social and medical needs require a high level of support and face multiple barriers in accessing health and social care services. With limited access to dental care, their high oral health needs go largely unaddressed. Integration of oral healthcare into primary care, alongside improved cross-sector working, has been advocated to bring together services across the system to achieve oral health equity.

Factors Influencing the Oral Health Behaviours of Autistic Children and Young People
BACKGROUND: Poor oral health (OH) in childhood can cause pain, affect quality of life and significantly impact adult OH. Autistic children and young people (CYP) experience inequalities in OH and are at higher risk of cavities and gum disease than neurotypical CYP. OBJECTIVE: To provide evidence and insights into the factors affecting the OH behaviours of ACYP from the perspective of ACYP, their parents/carers and Dental Health Professionals (DHP…

'New Home, New You' (NHNY) is a joint venture between a social housing association, a city council and a community healthcare provider in the South West of England. It was designed with the aim of improving the health and we…

Factors influencing oral health behaviours, access and delivery of dental care for autistic children and adolescents
Factors Influencing Oral Health Behaviours, Access and Provision of Dental Care for Autistic Children and Adolescents in Countries with a Very High Human Development Index
Autistic children and adolescents are at high risk of dental disease and experience oral health inequalities. They consistently show high levels of unmet needs in relation to their oral health and access to dental care. There are no systematic reviews that bring together the evidence on the factors that influence oral hygiene behaviours, and access to and provision of dental care for autistic children and adolescents. A systematic search will be …
Exploring Interventions to Improve the Oral Health and Related Health Behaviours of Adults Experiencing Severe and Multiple Disadvantage
The number of individuals in England experiencing homelessness, substance use, and involvement with the criminal justice system is increasing. These issues, referred to as severe and multiple disadvantage (SMD), are often interlinked and co-occur. Health inequalities, particularly poor oral health, persist for those facing these inter-related issues and are closely linked with high levels of substance use, smoking, and poor diet. However, evidenc…
Investigating the Effectiveness and Acceptability of Oral Health and Related Health Behaviour Interventions in Adults with Severe and Multiple Disadvantage
Increasing numbers of people in England experience homelessness, substance use, and repeated offending (known as 'severe and multiple disadvantage'; SMD). Populations experiencing SMD often have extremely poor oral health, which is closely inter-linked with high levels of substance use, smoking, and poor diet. This study aims to undertake an evidence synthesis to identify the effectiveness, resource requirements, and factors influencing the imple…
Evaluation of a community dental clinic providing care to people experiencing homelessness
BACKGROUND: People who experience homelessness have higher dental treatment needs compared to the general population. However, their utilization of dental services and levels of treatment completion are low. Peninsula Dental Social Enterprise, a not-for-profit organization in the United Kingdom, established a community dental clinic to improve access to dental care for this population. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the impact and acceptability of the c…
Obesity and caries in four-to-six year old English children
No associations between any measure of obesity and caries were found. However, deprivation affected both obesity and caries, thus highlighting the need to prioritise disadvantaged children in future prevention programmes
The impact of the Cyprus comprehensive smoking ban on air quality and economic business of hospitality venues
Smoke free legislations, when enforced, are highly effective in improving the air quality and reducing the levels of indoor PM2.5. Strict enforcement plays a key role in the successful implementation of smoking bans. Even in nations with high smoking prevalence comprehensive smoking laws can be effectively implemented and have no negative effect on accommodation, food, and beverage services
A preliminary assessment of low level arsenic exposure and diabetes mellitus in Cyprus
Further research is needed to improve As exposure assessment for the entire Cypriot population while assessing the exact relationship between low-level As exposure and DM
