‘How Does Nothing Show Up When I'm in So Much Agony?’: A Qualitative Study Exploring Patient Experiences of Non‐Specific Abdominal Pain in Acute Surgical Care
INTRODUCTION: Non-specific abdominal pain is a common and diagnostically challenging presentation in acute care, yet little is known about patient experiences within this setting. This study explores the experiences of patients attending a surgical same-day emergency care (SDEC) unit with non-specific abdominal pain. DESIGN: Qualitative descriptive study using inductive thematic analysis. METHODS: 23 adults (aged ≥ 18 years) presenting with acute…
Climate extremes, food price spikes, and their wider societal risks
We acknowledge the insights obtained from a number of discussions which informed the framing of this piece. In particular we thank Daria Kim from the Korean Broadcasting System, the Goldman Sachs Global Sustainability Investment Research Team, and discussants at the policy session on climate impacts and monetary policy at the annual conference of the European Association for Environmental & Resource Economists
Implementation of novel and conventional outbreak control measures in managing Covid-19 outbreaks in a large UK prison
Identifying and isolating infected prisoners, cohorting new admissions and shielding vulnerable individuals helped prevent uncontrollable spread of SARS-COV-2. These novel and cost-effective approaches can be implemented in correctional facilities globally
A challenge in qualitative research: Family members sitting in on interviews about sensitive subjects
Semi-structured interviews enable the exploration of a participant's views and experiences, and can reveal in-depth insights into a problem. Interviews usually consist of a dialogue between the researcher and the study participant.1 Dyadic interviewing2 is a form of qualitative research in which two participants interact and respond to open-ended questions posed by the researcher, recognizing and utilizing the interdependent relationship between …
'Reluctant pioneer': A qualitative study of doctors' experiences as patients with long Covid
BACKGROUND: The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has had far-reaching effects upon lives, healthcare systems and society. Some who had an apparently 'mild' COVID-19 infection continue to suffer from persistent symptoms, including chest pain, breathlessness, fatigue, cognitive impairment, paraesthesia, muscle and joint pains. This has been labelled 'long COVID'. This paper reports the experiences of doctors with long COVID. METHODS: A quali…
Clinicians’ Perspectives on Self-Harm in Pakistan: A Qualitative Study
Background: Suicide is a serious public health problem, ranked amongst the leading causes of death worldwide. There are no official data on self-harm and suicide in Pakistan; both are illegal acts, and are socially and religiously condemned. This study explored the views of clinicians, including general practitioners (GPs) and hospital physicians (HPs) on self-harm, about their management of people who self-harm and what interventions might be ap…
Patient reported self‐help strategies and the perceived benefits for managing sub‐threshold depressive symptoms: A nested qualitative study of Australian primary care attendees
Some of the reported self-management strategies aligned with evidence-based approaches such as physical activity and mindfulness for mental health symptom management. These findings can inform low-intensity interventions within stepped care models for mental health in primary care, social prescribing models and, help to guide the management of patients by GPs for subthreshold depression
We’re all wounded healers’: A qualitative study to explore the well‐being and needs of helpline workers supporting survivors of domestic violence and abuse
Domestic violence and abuse (DVA) can include physical, psychological, sexual, emotional or financial abuses, and is a globally widespread problem across all age groups, cultures and socioeconomic groups. Alongside the impacts of DVA experienced by survivors, there is a growing recognition that other people, who form the support network of survivors, may also be affected by the situation. Domestic violence organisations such as helplines are impo…
Railway suicide in England and Wales 2000–2013: A time-trends analysis
The continued rise in male railway suicide in England and Wales is concerning, particularly due to the high economic costs and psychological trauma associated with these deaths. The initiative's target of a 20% reduction in railway suicide is unlikely to be achieved
