Establishing a Public Involvement Network for Chronic Pain Research in the United Kingdom
INTRODUCTION: The Consortium to Research Individual, Interpersonal and Social Influences in Pain (CRIISP) is a 4-year UK university collaboration investigating how thoughts and feelings, personal relationships and lifestyle can affect chronic pain. Patient and public involvement in research recognises that researchers' conceptions of health and illness can be enriched and sense-checked by those of people experiencing a health condition. Published…
The perceptions of general practice among Central and Eastern Europeans in the United Kingdom
BACKGROUND: Around 2 million people have migrated from Central and Eastern Europe to the UK since 2004. The UK Central and Eastern European Community (UK-CEE) are disproportionately exposed to the social determinants of poor physical and mental health. Their health and healthcare beliefs remain under-researched, particularly regarding primary care. OBJECTIVE: This review explores UK-CEE community members' use and perceptions of UK general practic…
Reaching vulnerable groups
Welcome to the first edition of HEX for 2016. We have included some excellent papers, reporting on a range of clinical topics and research methodologies. The review article by Phillipson and colleagues on current practices to increase Chlamydia screening in the community evaluated the included interventions against social marketing national benchmark criteria. Despite the quality of evidence being low, the authors do make sensible suggestions abo…
Positive reporting? Is there a bias is reporting of patient and public involvement and engagement
Welcome to this edition of Health Expectations. As we have stated in earlier editorial briefings (e.g. 18.6), we are paying much more attention to the role played by patients and the public in selecting and agreeing the research question, study design and methods, interpretation and discussion of study findings, and in dissemination of results. So this edition of HEX particularly reflects this. In the UK, the National Institute for Health Researc…
Having diabetes and having to fast
BACKGROUND: There are approximately 2.7 million Muslims in the UK, constituting 4.8% of the population. It is estimated that 325,000 UK Muslims have diabetes. Whilst dietary practices of Muslims with diabetes have been explored, little work has described the beliefs and decisions to fast during Ramadan, whereby Muslims with diabetes refrain from eating, drinking and taking medication between sunrise and sunset. OBJECTIVE: To explore beliefs and e…
Self‐management in long‐term conditions – where does the health service sit
Welcome to this edition of HEX. We still have quite much catching up to do, and a large number of the manuscripts published in this edition were submitted and accepted two years ago. I intend to focus this briefing on long-term conditions (LTCs), highlighting the manuscripts in this edition which link to this theme, and with a particular focus on self-management and the role of the health service in supporting patients with LTCs. As Lhussier et a…

Encouraging patient and public involvement in HEX
Welcome to this edition of Health Expectations. The Editors have been discussing what we mean by our strapline and that HEX is ‘an International Journal of Public Participation in Health Care and Health Policy’. We are certainly international, attracting papers from around the world (in this issue, Canada, Israel, Spain, Taiwan as well as USA and UK) and have an international readership. However, there continues to be debate about what we really …
Framing the doctor-patient relationship in chronic illness
How family doctors conceptualise chronic illness in the consultation has important implications for both the delivery of medical care, and its experience by patients. In this paper, we present the results of a re-analysis of qualitative data collected in a series of studies of British family doctors between 1995 and 2001, to explore the ways in which the legitimacy and authority of medical knowledge and practice are organised and worked out in re…
