  • P1-26 The all Ireland traveller health study of ten thousand families provides a human development index for Irish travellers

    Noor Aman Hamid, Cecily Kelleher et al.ARTICLEJournal of Epidemiology and…2011

    Introduction Irish Travellers, a nomadic minority group in Ireland, experience multi-faceted social deprivation. The All Ireland Traveller Health Study (AITHS) 2007–2011 of an estimated 10 000 families in both Irish jurisdictions shows little improvement in most measured indicators since the last systematic assessment in 1987. The Human Development Index (HDI), measures long term basic dimensions including life expectancy, access to knowledge and…

    Jane Whelan, Patricia Fitzpatrick et al.ARTICLEJournal of Epidemiology and…2010

    Background Irish Travellers have a lower life expectancy than the general Population. Objective health-status indices are consistently poorer in Traveller and Gypsy populations than in other comparably deprived social groups. Self-rated Health (SRH) is established as a valid indicator of objective health status. Methods As part of an all-Ireland census of 10 618 Traveller families both North and South (response rate 80% overall) employing a novel…

  • Implementation of a campus-wide Irish hospital smoking ban in 2009

    Open AccessPatricia Fitzpatrick, Irene Gilroy et al.ARTICLEHealth Promotion International2009

    We report the evidence base that supported the decision to implement the first campus-wide hospital smoking ban in the Republic of Ireland with effect from 1 January 2009. Three separate data sources are utilized; surveillance data collected from patients and staff in 8 surveys between 1997 and 2006, a 1-week observational study to assess smoker behaviour in designated smoking shelters and an attitudinal interview with 28 smoker patients and 30 s…

  • Persistent circulating unmetabolised folic acid in a setting of liberal voluntary folic acid fortification. Implications for further mandatory fortification

    Open AccessMary Rose Sweeney, Anthony Staines et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2009

    While the levels of circulatory unmetabolised folic acid reported are low, it is persistently present in women immediately after caesarean section who were fasting indicating that there would be a constant/habitual exposure of existing tumours to folic acid, with the potential for accelerated growth. Mandatory fortification might exacerbate this. This has implications for those with responsibility for drafting legislating in this area
