Investigating the Intellectual Bifurcation Between Feminist Theory and Sociology of Religious Leadership
Despite rich theoretical developments occurring within feminist theory, Avishai and Irby (2017) have identified that a problematic 'intellectual bifurcation' (652) exists between the fields of 'feminism' and 'sociology of religion.' This means that developments in feminist knowledge and theorising may not be being used by sociologists of religion to frame their work on gender. The present study elaborates on the work of Avishai and Irby (2017) by…
The latent strength of communityties
Not collateral damage
The Republic of Ireland’s new Criminal Law (Sexual Offences) Act 2017 (2017 Act) criminalised sex purchase. Drawing on primary data from reports made by sex workers in Ireland to UglyMugs.ie, we analyse trends in violent and other crimes against sex workers in Republic of Ireland (hereafter Ireland). Examining the four-year period 2015–2019, we highlight the various crimes sex workers experience, including incidents of hate crime. Analysis of Ugl…
Parents' decision-making following diagnosis of a severe congenital anomaly in pregnancy
Diagnosis of a severe congenital anomaly
OBJECTIVE: To explore parental decision making following diagnosis of a severe congenital anomaly, and implications for healthcare encounters. DESIGN: Qualitative semi-structured interviews with 38 parents-to-be were collated and triangulated with data generated from consultation recordings. ANALYSIS: Data were analysed using a constant comparative-based approach. SETTING: Recruitment was undertaken across four fetal medicine sites in two tertiar…

Stillbirths
An estimated 2.6 million third trimester stillbirths occurred in 2015 (uncertainty range 2.4-3.0 million). The number of stillbirths has reduced more slowly than has maternal mortality or mortality in children younger than 5 years, which were explicitly targeted in the Millennium Development Goals. The Every Newborn Action Plan has the target of 12 or fewer stillbirths per 1000 births in every country by 2030. 94 mainly high-income countries and …
National, regional, and worldwide estimates of stillbirth rates in 2015, with trends from 2000
BACKGROUND: Previous estimates have highlighted a large global burden of stillbirths, with an absence of reliable data from regions where most stillbirths occur. The Every Newborn Action Plan (ENAP) targets national stillbirth rates (SBRs) of 12 or fewer stillbirths per 1000 births by 2030. We estimate SBRs and numbers for 195 countries, including trends from 2000 to 2015. METHODS: We collated SBR data meeting prespecified inclusion criteria from…
Conducting a critical interpretive synthesis of the literature on access to healthcare by vulnerable groups
BACKGROUND: Conventional systematic review techniques have limitations when the aim of a review is to construct a critical analysis of a complex body of literature. This article offers a reflexive account of an attempt to conduct an interpretive review of the literature on access to healthcare by vulnerable groups in the UK METHODS: This project involved the development and use of the method of Critical Interpretive Synthesis (CIS). This approach…
The drinking water response to the Indian Ocean tsunami, including the role of household water treatment
Purpose To document the drinking water component of the humanitarian response to the Great Sumatra‐Andaman earthquake of December 26, 2004, including a focus on the promotion of household water treatment (HHWT)/safe storage to minimize the spread of diarrhoeal disease. Design/methodology/approach Firsthand accounts of the response effort, interviews, and literature review. Findings The combined efforts to mobilize a drinking water response were t…

Geographical variation in coronary revascularisation rates
rates Sir -I found the paper by Black et all on the geographical variation in coronary re- vascularisation rates extremely interesting. This is a vital area if the NHS is to try to achieve a more equitable service. I am impressed by the tremendous size of the study embarked upon to investigate these variations and the wealth of information available for analysis
Children's vision screening
STUDY OBJECTIVE--To investigate the relationship between age at presentation of amblyopia and social deprivation before and after the introduction of changes to a vision screening service. DESIGN--Two cohorts of children treated for amblyopia in 1983 and 1992. SETTING--THe orthoptic department of Leicester Royal Infirmary. PARTICIPANTS--The 209 patients treated for amblyopia who first attended the orthoptic department in 1983, and 203 who first a…
What does the austin maze measure
The Austin Maze is a version of a popular neuropsychological test which is employed, internationally, as a measure of spatial memory. However, in Australia, failure to attain errorless performance within a limited number of trials on the Maze is often interpreted as evidence of frontal lobe dysfunction. Such a result might then be used to make predictions about a client's potential for rehabilitation or a successful return to work. Moreover, a cl…
