Towards a new model of population mental health research and policy translation in the UK
Assessing the relationship between community resilience and health outcomes
BACKGROUND: Community resilience is a relevant concept in public health, but its empirical relationship with health outcomes remains underexplored. This study examines whether a Community Resilience Index (CRI) is associated with population health outcomes in England, and whether it offers explanatory added value beyond the Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD). METHODS: The CRI comprises 44 indicators reflecting community-level resilience to chron…
Socio‐demographic variation in diagnosis of and prescribing for common mental illnesses among children and young people during the Covid ‐19 pandemic
BACKGROUND: The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the mental health of children and young people (CYP) has been widely reported. Primary care electronic health records were utilised to examine trends in the diagnosing, recording and treating of these common mental disorders by ethnicity and social deprivation in Greater Manchester, England. METHODS: Time-series analyses conducted using Greater Manchester Care Record (GMCR) data examined all diag…
A community resilience-based approach to place-based funding
Regional inequalities in health and wealth across England have widened in recent years. The UK Government’s Levelling Up policy sought to address these disparities through six key funding programmes, collectively allocating £8.64 billion to local authority districts (LADs) in England. Using Levelling Up as a case study, this research assessed the alignment between actual and modelled ‘fair share’ allocations, using a Community Resilience Index (C…
Healthcare utilisation and associated costs for methadone versus buprenorphine recipients
A Systematic Review of Interpersonal Violence Perpetration and Victimization Risk Examined Within Single Study Cohorts, Including in Relation to Mental Illness
Rates of both violent victimization and violence perpetration are known to be elevated among individuals with mental illness compared with those in the general population, though the relative risk of each outcome is less well established. In this systematic review, PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, PsycINFO, and Criminal Justice Abstracts were searched for articles published any time before October 2021 that reported the prevalence or incidence of …
Involving People With Lived Experience in Electronic Health Record Database Studies Reflections and Learning From the CHOOSE Study
Background Patient and public involvement and engagement (PPIE) is integral to health research. Reporting of PPIE methods and impact is becoming increasingly common in health research. However, reporting on PPIE in studies using large, routinely collected electronic health record data sets is less common. Anecdotal evidence suggests that involvement in this research context is more challenging and offers fewer opportunities for meaningful influen…
Adapting the Baseline Resilience Indicators for Communities (BRIC) Framework for England
Community resilience results from complex interactions between people, places, and environments. Measuring community resilience aligns with policy objectives to enhance resilience to adverse events and address spatial disparities. The Baseline Resilience Indicators for Communities (BRIC) is a composite index used to measure resilience. This study adapts the BRIC approach to develop a Community Resilience Index (CRI) for England. A systematic revi…
Risk factors for deaths of despair in England
Deaths of Despair (DoD) are socially patterned fatalities encompassing those attributable to drug and alcohol misuse and suicide. DoD occur much more frequently in socially deprived communities. This ecological study aimed to yield new knowledge on the spatial distribution of DoD, and socioeconomic factors that predict DoD risk in England. Via ICD-10 coding, deaths nationally during 2019-2021 were classified to non-overlapping categories of drug-…
Measurement of community resilience using the Baseline Resilience Indicator for Communities (BRIC) framework
Levelling up or widening the gap? An analysis of community renewal fund allocation in English regions using an economic resilience index
This paper assesses the relationship between economic resilience in English regions and the allocation of the UK government’s Community Renewal Fund (CRF). The CRF is part of the government’s ‘Levelling Up’ agenda to address place-based inequalities. Economic resilience is measured using a composite index comprising productivity, skills, unemployment, population density and household income. Data were obtained for the five indicators at local aut…
Risk factors for nonfatal self‐harm and suicide among adolescents
BACKGROUND: The characteristics of adolescents who die by suicide have hitherto been examined in uncontrolled study designs, thereby precluding examination of risk factors. The degree to which antecedents of nonfatal self-harm and suicide at young age differ remains unknown. METHOD: We delineated two nested case-control studies of patients aged 10-19 years using the Clinical Practice Research Datalink with interlinked hospital and national mortal…
Suicide and self-harm in low- and middle- income countries during the Covid-19 pandemic
There is widespread concern over the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on suicide and self-harm globally, particularly in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC) where the burden of these behaviours is greatest. We synthesised the evidence from the published literature on the impact of the pandemic on suicide and self-harm in LMIC. This review is nested within a living systematic review (PROSPERO ID CRD42020183326 ) that continuously iden…
The inter-connections between self-harm and aggressive behaviours
Dual harm is the co-occurrence of self-harm and aggression during an individual's lifetime. This behaviour is especially prevalent within criminal justice and forensic settings. The forms of aggression that should be included in the definition of dual harm have not yet been established. This study aimed to use network analysis to inform an evidence-based definition of dual harm by assessing the relationship between self-harm and different forms o…
Characteristics of People Returned to Prison From Medium Secure Psychiatric Services in England and Wales
MSs in England and Wales are returning vulnerable individuals to prison in lieu of adequate aftercare services. The role of and responsibilities of MSSs as regards admissions from prison needs to be reconsidered
Mental health responses to the Covid-19 pandemic
Suicide trends in the early months of the Covid-19 pandemic
Developmental language disorders and risk of recidivism among young offenders
BACKGROUND: Although factors such as adverse family background have been widely examined, little is known about the prevalence or potential impact of developmental language disorder (DLD) on risk of recidivism in young people with history of criminal justice system contact. METHODS: A total of 145 young offenders participated. An adversity score was constructed based on information found in youth justice service records. Data collected included s…
Evaluating the impact of patient and carer involvement in suicide and self‐harm research
BACKGROUND: Patient and public involvement (PPI) is becoming more commonplace in mental health research. There are strong moral and ethical arguments for good quality PPI. Few studies have documented and evaluated PPI in self-harm and suicide research. Inconsistent reporting of PPI makes it difficult to discern practices that deliver quality, effective and meaningful involvement. It is important to understand and address emotional support needs o…

Mental health before and during the Covid-19 pandemic
Repeat Self-Harm Following Hospital-Presenting Intentional Drug Overdose among Young People—A National Registry Study
Young males are at increased risk of repeat self-harm and method-switching following IDO and the type and quantity of drugs taken are further indicators of risk. Interventions targeting IDO among young people are needed that ensure that mental health assessments are undertaken and which address access to drugs
Adverse Childhood Experiences and Risk of Subsequently Engaging in Self-Harm and Violence towards Other People—“Dual Harm”
The etiology of "dual harm" (the co-occurrence of self-harm and externalized violence in the same individual) is under-researched. Risk factors have mostly been investigated for each behavior separately. We aimed to examine adversities experienced between birth and age 15 years among adolescents and young adults with histories of self-harm and violent criminality, with a specific focus on dual harm. Three nested case-control studies were delineat…
A national case fatality study of drugs taken in intentional overdose
Investigating the Agreement Between Cardiovascular Disease Risk Calculators Among People Diagnosed With Schizophrenia
Background: People diagnosed with schizophrenia have a much reduced life expectancy compared to the general population, and a more than doubled risk of dying from cardiovascular disease (CVD). Existing CVD risk calculators can be used to detect people with an elevated predicted risk of CVD to inform interventions to reduce risk. Aims: This study aimed to compare four different risk calculators for 10-year predicted CVD risk in a sample of people …

Why does Scotland have a higher suicide rate than England? An area-level investigation of health and social factors
BACKGROUND: Up until the mid-late 2000s, the national suicide rate in Scotland was the highest among all the UK countries, but the reasons for this phenomenon are poorly understood. METHODS: In a multilevel study of suicide risk in Scotland and England during 2001-2006, the authors examined a range of social, cultural and health-related factors at small area level: postcode sector and Health Board in Scotland and ward and Primary Care Organisatio…

Reduced Infant Birthweight Consequent Upon Maternal Exposure to Severe Life Events
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association between maternal exposure to severe life events and fetal growth (birthweight and small for gestational age). Stress has been associated with adverse pregnancy outcome. METHODS: Mothers of 1.38 million singleton live births in Denmark between January 1, 1979 and December 31, 2002 were linked to information on their spouses, parents, siblings, and older children. Exposure was defined as death or serious il…

National cohort study of absolute risk and age-specific incidence of multiple adverse outcomes between adolescence and early middle age
This is the first comprehensive assessment of the incidence rates and absolute risks of these multiple adverse outcomes. Approximately 1 in 50 males and 1 in 120 females who are alive on their 15th birthday will die by age 40. By examining the same cohort at risk, we compared risks for multiple outcomes without differential inter-cohort biases. These epidemiological profiles will inform further research into the pathways leading to these adverse …
Attempted suicide and violent criminality among Danish second-generation immigrants according to parental place of origin
BACKGROUND: Immigrant populations in Western European countries have grown in their size and diversity, but little is known about risks of self-directed and externalised violence among second-generation immigrants. AIMS: To compare risks for attempted suicides and violent offending among second-generation immigrants to Denmark according to parental region of origin versus the native Danish population. METHODS: Data from interlinked national Danis…
