    Cephalic version by moxibustion for breech presentation

    No full text
    BackgroundMoxibustion (a type of Chinese medicine which involves burning a herb close to the skin) to the acupuncture point Bladder 67 (BL67) (Chinese name Zhiyin), located at the tip of the fifth toe, has been proposed as a way of correcting breech presentation. As caesarean section is often suggested for breech babies due to the potential difficulties during labour, it is preferable to turn the baby before labour starts.ObjectivesTo examine the effectiveness and safety of moxibustion on changing the presentation of an unborn baby in the breech position, the need for external cephalic version (ECV), mode of birth, and perinatal morbidity and mortality for breech presentation.Search strategyWe searched the Cochrane Pregnancy and Childbirth Group trials register (30 August 2004), the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (The Cochrane Library, Issue 1, 2004), MEDLINE (1966 to March 2004), EMBASE (1980 to March 2004), CINAHL (1982 to March 2004), MIDIRS (1982 to March 2004), CISCOM (9 March 2004) and bibliographies of relevant papers.Selection criteriaThe inclusion criteria were published and unpublished randomised controlled trials comparing moxibustion (either alone or in combination with acupuncture) with a control group (no moxibustion), or other methods (e.g. external cephalic version, acupuncture) in women with a singleton breech presentation.Data collection and analysisBoth authors assessed eligibility and quality of trials independently. The outcome measures were baby's presentation at birth, need for external cephalic version, mode of birth, perinatal morbidity and mortality, maternal complications and maternal satisfaction, and adverse events.Main resultsThree trials involving a total of 597 women were included. Due to differences in interventions and sample size it was not appropriate to perform a meta-analysis for the main outcome. Only one trial reported on other outcome measures relevant to this review. Moxibustion reduced the need for ECV (relative risk (RR) 0.47, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.33 to 0.66) and resulted in decreased use of oxytocin before or during labour for women who had vaginal deliveries (RR 0.28, 95% CI 0.13 to 0.60).Authors' conclusionsThere is insufficient evidence to support the use of moxibustion to correct a breech presentation. Moxibustion may be beneficial in reducing the need for ECV, and decreasing the use of ocytocin, however there is a need for well-designed randomised controlled trials to evaluate moxibustion for breech presentation which report on clinically relevant outcomes as well as the safety of the intervention.Meaghan E Coyle, Caroline A Smith, Brian Pea

    Book review: how to speak money by John Lanchester

    No full text
    John Lanchester, the bestselling author of Capital and Whoops!, aims to decode the global language of money for all of us, in an amusing and jargon-free read. Diane Coyle finds this is a very entertaining read and a clear guide to the kind of economics spoken in the financial markets and the media. Those who already speak the language would do well to read the initial essay and reflect on it, and in particular on what normal people hear when they are using the jargon

    The impact of CHI: evidence from Wales

    No full text
    The Commission for Health Improvement (CHI) recently published an overview of 175 clinical governance reviews that suggests that it is having little impact on the NHS. This paper overviews the content and context of CHI's message to trusts in an attempt to shed some light on why this may be so. Content is examined through an overview of policy documents. We deduce that CHI's message is strong on the individual elements of clinical governance but lacks a framework to integrate these elements where it matters most, the individual clinical unit. Context is examined using survey and focus group data from six Welsh trusts in 2000. The data indicate that the various professional groups in Welsh trusts have very different experience with, understandings of, and evaluations of, clinical governance. Further, each professional group's evaluation is influenced by its professional culture and stances on key issues of the modernisation agenda. The paper argues that, to be more effective, CHI needs to increase its awareness of how staff perceive and evaluate clinical governance and be clearer about the specific changes in practices and cultures it is seeking to promote

    Concerned but confused: Australian consumers' awareness, understanding, and recognition of ultra-processed foods

    Available online 5 July 2025Calls to reduce ultra-processed food (UPF) consumption through population health strategies such as front-of-pack labelling are increasing. Gaining insight into consumer perceptions may help inform effective strategies in this area. This study explored (i) Australian adults' awareness, understanding, and recognition of UPFs and (ii) their interest in front-of-pack labelling to signpost UPFs. Twelve online focus groups were conducted with 112 Australian adults (49% women, 78% residing in metropolitan areas). Discussions covered food selection criteria, familiarity with 'processed' and 'ultra-processed' terminology, ability to recognise UPFs, and views on current and desired availability of processing-level information on packaged foods. Images of foods were used as stimuli to facilitate discussion. An inductive thematic analysis was applied to examine the data. Two key themes emerged: (i) concern but confusion around processing and UPFs, and (ii) support for UPF information provision but uncertainty about feasibility. Participants broadly supported strategies to help consumers identify UPFs and their characteristic ingredients, while noting that low awareness of relevant terminology may limit the effectiveness of labelling approaches without accompanying public education efforts. Participants relied on simple packaging cues to assess processing levels, highlighting the need for transparent and salient labelling strategies. There were concerns that co-locating a UPF front-of-pack label alongside existing health labels could cause confusion, particularly where nutritional quality and level of processing are misaligned. Integrating UPF information into existing labelling systems appeared to be an acceptable approach to support healthier food choices and may alleviate these concerns. The findings provide evidence to enhance communication about food processing and support labelling strategies.Eden M. Barrett, Bella Sträuli, Daisy H.
