Developing a research community within an online healthcare feedback platform
INTRODUCTION: Care Opinion is an online feedback platform supporting patients to author stories about their care. It is not known whether authors would be willing to be involved in improving care through research. The aims of this study were to explore the views and preferences of Care Opinion authors about joining an online research community and to pilot new research community functionality. METHODS: Five hundred and nine Care Opinion authors w…
Zooming’ in on Consulting with Children and Parents Remotely to Co-Create Health Information Resources
The COVID-19 pandemic altered the way many people worked. Remote and creative ways were favoured and utilised for consultation activities. In this paper, we draw attention to how we have used creative methods over the teleconferencing platform 'ZOOM' to consult with children and their parents when we were unable to consult with them face-to-face. We document a clear timeline of how we have worked together to co-create an animation and information…
An International Law Principle of Non-Regression From Environmental Protections
A principle that prohibits States from weakening their domestic levels of environmental protection continues to emerge at varying speeds within international trade, investment and environmental law. This article explores the principle's diverse history, rationale and legal expression in each of these domains and finds that its various articulations in different international treaties suffer the same shortfalls and deficiencies. Non-regression cla…
Proven and not proven
The current Scottish verdict system includes three verdicts: ‘guilty’, ‘not guilty’ and ‘not proven’. The Scottish Government are currently reviewing the utility of the not proven verdict. Proponents of the not proven verdict suggest that it directs jurors to their true role of determining whether the prosecution's case has, or has not, been ‘proven’. Reformists suggest a move to a system similar to England and Wales, with only guilty and not gui…
Someone Else’s Deal
This article considers whether an international investment agreement (IIA) between two states parties can be interpreted in the light of a 'third-party IIA' (defined as a party's IIA with a third state, a party's model IIA or an IIA between other states parties). A significant number of tribunals have been willing to interpret the IIA before them with reference to third-party IIAs, drawing inferences from differences or similarities in their text…
Imperial Anticommunism and the African American Freedom Movement in the Early Cold War
This article draws on social-movement knowledge production to argue that early cold war anticommunism in the United States was related to the broader history of US empire and had, on balance, a negative impact on the African American freedom movement. This argument first elaborates on the notion of cold-war anticommunism as a facet of empire ‘at home’, then turns to three examples of anticolonialism in the United States in the period between the …
The relationship between the origins and regime design of the Asean Intergovernmental Commission on Human Rights (AICHR)
The reasons why states come together and create regional or international human rights institutions have puzzled scholars of both international law and international relations. In many ways, it does not make obvious sense for states to create such institutions: their focus is not on interstate relations but instead on the domestic relationship between a state and its citizens, and they impose sovereignty costs without conferring obvious benefits.…

Objective: To assess the cost effectiveness of a community based exercise programme as a population wide public health intervention for older adults. Design: Pragmatic, cluster randomised community intervention trial. Setting: 12 general practices in Sheffield; four randomly selected as intervention populations, and eight as control populations. Participants: All those aged 65 and over in the least active four fifths of the population responding …

Response to requests for general practice out of hours
The organisation of out of hours general practice (GP) in \nthe UK has changed rapidly in recent years as practice \nbased rotas and deputising services have given way to GP \ncooperatives in many areas. At the same time, the proportion \nof patients contacting an out of hours service who receive \ntelephone advice only, rather than a face to face consultation, \nhas risen substantially, although patients continue to express \nstrong preferences …
Measuring the success of public participation on environmental restoration and waste management activities in the U.S. Department of Energy
Neighbors for a smoke free north side
OBJECTIVES: This study evaluated a community organization approach that emphasized involvement of audiences in program planning and implementation in promoting nonsmoking among African American residents of low-income neighborhoods. METHODS: The quasi-experimental design involved a 24-month intervention in 3 low-income, predominantly African American neighborhoods in St. Louis. Intervention neighborhoods were compared with comparable, untreated n…
Shipping Subsidies and Railway Guarantees
This article reassesses Sir William Mackinnon's role in the evolution of Victorian imperialism in Eastern Africa. It rejects the view that Mackinnon's activities in Eastern Africa were motivated by a desire for self-glorification and attempts, by contrast, to demonstrate the relevance of business considerations. A search for shipping subsidies and railway guarantees, spreading out from British India, accompanied the Mackinnon Group's development …
Conclusions
THE preceding pages have attempted to survey what is known, and what has been written, about the economic relationships between Britain and Tropical Africa and about the British impact upon the material life of a major world region. It will have become clear that there is no closely joined debate over the broad contours of these matters. Discussion has been liveliest and most productive, throwing up fresh evidence, pushing forward theoretical per…
