Long-term follow-up of the public health impacts and co-benefits of an urban greenway intervention
BACKGROUND: Evidence on the long-term impact of urban green and blue spaces (UGBS) interventions remains limited. This study is a 15-year evaluation of an urban greenway development in Belfast (United Kingdom), assessing the potential effects of this UGBS intervention on physical activity (PA), mental wellbeing and co-benefits. METHODS: Using natural experimental design, a repeated cross-sectional survey was conducted in 2010 (baseline), 2017 (po…
A systematic review of the effects of outsourcing elective surgeries to private sector health service providers to shorten waiting times
Prolonged waiting times and extensive queues for elective surgeries have been persistent issues in many publicly funded health systems. The COVID-19 pandemic has worsened this problem, leading to the widespread cancellation or postponement of scheduled operations globally. Recognising the urgent need to address these escalating waiting times and alleviate the strain on both patients and health systems, collaboration with the private sector might …
The contribution of urban green and blue spaces to the United Nation's Sustainable Development Goals
Urban green and blue spaces (UGBS) have the potential to make a significant contribution to the United Nation's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Research shows the need for UGBS to mitigate the adverse environmental impacts of urbanisation and provide equitable access to resources that reduce social and health inequalities. However, no previous review has attempted to consolidate this evidence within the context of the SDGs. The aim of this …
Prioritising Cochrane reviews to be updated with health equity focus
This project developed and implemented a methodology to set priorities for updating systematic reviews spanning multiple health topics with a health equity focus. It prioritised reviews that reduce overall mortality, are relevant to disadvantaged populations, and focus on conditions with a high global burden of disease. This approach to the prioritisation of systematic reviews of interventions that reduce mortality provides a template that can be…
Does Ideology Explain Chinese Policy Today
From Michael Pillsbury’s 2015 100 Year Marathon to Aaron Friedberg’s 2022 Getting China Wrong, it has become conventional wisdom to assert that Beijing has a coherent and long-term strategy integrating all elements of national power to ensure China replaces the United States as global hegemon
Adaptation of a gender-transformative sexual and reproductive health intervention for adolescent boys in South Africa and Lesotho using intervention mapping
The IM approach allows for a systematic appraisal of whether components and processes of an existing intervention are appropriate for a new target population before costly evaluation studies are conducted. The findings will be of interest to those wishing to rigourously develop and evaluate gender-transformative interventions engaging men to improve health for all
The Ages of the World and the Ages of Man
In the grand narrative of renewal and creativity in the Europe of the ‘long twelfth century’, it has been easy to assume that Ireland was marginal and backward-looking, with the energy of its thinkers and writers concentrated on preserving and continuing the cultural forms of the national past. In recent scholarship, however, it has become clear that Irish intellectual life in this period was much closer to the European mainstream than was once b…

Priorities for methodological research on patient and public involvement in clinical trials
BACKGROUND: Despite increasing international interest, there is a lack of evidence about the most efficient, effective and acceptable ways to implement patient and public involvement (PPI) in clinical trials. OBJECTIVE: To identify the priorities of UK PPI stakeholders for methodological research to help resolve uncertainties about PPI in clinical trials. DESIGN: A modified Delphi process including a two round online survey and a stakeholder cons…
Chilcot Report
Preferred reporting items for systematic review and meta-analysis protocols (PRISMA-P) 2015
Protocols of systematic reviews and meta-analyses allow for planning and documentation of review methods, act as a guard against arbitrary decision making during review conduct, enable readers to assess for the presence of selective reporting against completed reviews, and, when made publicly available, reduce duplication of efforts and potentially prompt collaboration. Evidence documenting the existence of selective reporting and excessive dupli…

Involvement of the consumer voice
It is probably true to say that no two health-care decisions are the same. Every one of them will reflect the individual circumstances, opinion and knowledge of the potential recipient of the intervention – be it for treatment or prevention of disease – the health practitioners and, sometimes, other people as well, such as parents of a newborn baby. In order to arrive at a satisfactory and satisfying decision, good quality information based on th…
Epic interactions
This collection of essays surveys the epic tradition from the 8th century BC to the 19th century of our era. Chapters focus on: Homer and the oral epic tradition; Homer in his religious context; Herodotus and Homer; Hellenistic epic; Virgil in his literary context; Virgil in his political-cultural context, and more
Are offshore financial centres the product of global markets? A sociological response
Clearly the globalization of finance has provided opportunities for OFCs to emerge. From a sociological perspective it is argued, however, that closer analysis demands respect for their diversity and even idiosyncrasy. Analytical concepts are offered to situate this diversity and to develop a more reflexive understanding of the processes through which the system of OFCs continues to develop. We arrive at a distinctive approach for theorizing OFCs…

Studies reviewed: 292 randomised controlled trials including 258 315 participants Intervention reviewed: 75 strategies for influencing response to postal questionnaires. Main outcome measure: The proportion of completed or partially completed questionn…

The public service orientation sets service for the public as the key organizational value, providing motivation and purposes both for the local authority and its staff. This article describes the public service orientation before focusing on the major issues which this orientation raises. In particular, it examines service for, not to, the public; the ways in which the public service Orientation differs from consumerism; and the relationship to …

From Traditional Management to the New Management in British Local Government
The article outlines the assumptions on which traditional management in British local authorities was based. It argues the those assumptions were grounded in the conditions of the postwar period, but outlines developing critiques. In recent years societal changes and economic and financial pressures have challenged the basis of traditional management and reinforced the critiques.

The wisdom of Thales and the problem of the word IepoΣ
Those who write about early Greek literature often assume that each item in the ancient vocabulary answers to a single concept in the world-view of its users. It seems reasonable to hope that the body of ideas represented by a particular Greek word will frame one's discussion better than any question that could be asked in English: so that a cautious scholar might prefer to discuss the phenomenon called αἰδώς, for example, than to plunge into a s…
