News Media Representations of Gene Transcriptional Profiling
Developments in genomics, notably the development of transcriptomics, have enabled the “molecularization of life” (Rose, 2001, p.13). Most analyses of these developments focus on human medicine. Other realms warrant attention, specifically applications with nonhuman animals, which are increasingly likely in response to growing concerns regarding their adaptability to rapid environmental changes. Given that public understandings can impact adoptio…
Retirement Inequalities
In the late 1960s, Canada reformed its earlier discriminatory immigration policies that prevented entry of individuals from “undesirable” countries and/or nationalities. Despite today’s more democratic immigration policies, new arrivals still experience significant barriers in terms of labour market integration, which results in substantial inequalities during retirement. In this study, data from the 2016 Census Public File is used to compare the…
Maternal micronutrient consumption periconceptionally and during pregnancy
Objective To examine overall micronutrient intake periconceptionally and throughout pregnancy in a population-based cohort of Australian women. Design In a prospective cohort study, micronutrient dosages were extracted from self-reported maternal supplement use, recorded pre-conception, and for each trimester of pregnancy. A food frequency scale (DQESv2) captured usual maternal diet for gestational weeks 14–26. The influence of sociodemographic a…
Alcohol consumption in a general antenatal population and child neurodevelopment at 2 years
BACKGROUND: Prenatal alcohol exposure (PAE) is a community health problem with up to 50% of pregnant women drinking alcohol. The relationship between low or sporadic binge PAE and adverse child outcomes is not clear. This study examines the association between PAE in the general antenatal population and child neurodevelopment at 2 years, accounting for relevant contributing factors. METHODS: This prospective population-based cohort recruited 1570…
Did you ever drink more?” A detailed description of pregnant women’s drinking patterns
We have identified characteristics of pregnant women who either abstain, drink until pregnancy awareness or drink throughout pregnancy. These may assist in targeting strategies to enhance adherence to an abstinence policy and ultimately allow for appropriate follow-up and interpretation of adverse child outcomes. Our methodology also produced important information to reduce misclassification of occasional binge drinking episodes and ensure clearl…
Assessing the risks and benefits of diagnosing genetic conditions with variable phenotypes through population screening
Evaluation of a decision aid for prenatal testing of fetal abnormalities
The findings from this trial will make a significant contribution to improving women's experience of prenatal testing and will have application to a variety of maternity care settings. The evaluation of a tailored decision aid will also have implications for pregnancy care providers by identifying whether or not such a resource will support their role in providing prenatal testing information
Genetics and public health—evolution, or revolution
During the 19th and early 20th century, public health and genetics shared common ground through similar approaches to health promotion in the population. By the mid-20th century there was a division between public health and genetics, with eugenicists estranged and clinical genetics focused on single gene disorders, usually only relevant to small numbers of people. Now through a common interest in the aetiology of complex diseases such as heart d…
Consequences of surveying folate awareness
Objectives To assess women's concerns when interviewed about the association between folate and neural tube defects (NTDs) and to determine how this is affected by time, being folate aware, having seen folate promotional material or being pregnant. Design As part of a community randomized trial outcomes evaluation, independent cross‐sectional follow‐up surveys were carried out in 1997 and 2000. Setting and participants Six local government areas …
What is the impact of genetic counselling in women at increased risk of developing hereditary breast cancer? A meta-analytic review
A randomized community intervention trial to increase awareness and knowledge of the role of periconceptional folate in women of child‐bearing age
Objectives To determine the effect of a consumer‐directed information campaign to increase knowledge of folate for the prevention of neural tube defects among women of child‐bearing age, and to measure women’s recall of sources of information and knowledge about folate. Design A community randomized trial. Setting Three matched pairs of geographically distinct Local Government Areas in the state of Victoria, Australia. Intervention Printed inform…
