    Background: the mortality and morbidity of falls in older people is significant, with recurrent fallers being at an increasedrisk. The most effective way to reduce falls in this group is not clear.Objective: to determine the effectiveness of two interventions, one based in primary care and the other in secondary care, atpreventing further falls in recurrent fallers.Design: cluster randomised controlled trial.Participants: sixty-five years or over, living in the community, two or more falls in the previous year and not presenting to anemergency department with index fall.Setting: Mid Hampshire, UK.Intervention: eighteen general practices were randomly allocated to one of three groups. The primary care group was assessed by nurses in the community, using a risk factor review and subsequent targeted referral to other professionals. The secondary care group received a multi-disciplinary assessment in a day hospital followed by identified appropriate interventions. The control group received usual care. Follow-up was for 1 year.Results: five hundred and five participants were recruited. Follow-up was completed in 83% (421/505). The proportion ofparticipants who fell again was significantly lower in the secondary care group (75%, 158/210) compared to the control group [84%, 133/159, adjusted odds ratio (OR) 0.52 (95% CI 0.35–0.79) P = 0.002]. The primary care group showed similar results to the control group [87%, 118/136, adjusted OR 1.17 (95% CI 0.57–2.37) P = 0.673].Conclusion: a structured multi-disciplinary assessment of recurrent fallers significantly reduced the number experiencingfurther falls, but a community-based nurse-led assessment with targeted referral to other professionals did not

    Herb and spice fraud; the drivers, challenges and detection

    No full text
    The global herb and spice industry, valued at approximately US$4 billion, continues to grow. This industry is continuously under threat from criminals dealing in economically motivated adulteration. Opportunities for criminals to adulterate herbs and spices can occur at any point along the long and complex supply chains. This review looks at the cases and effects of adulteration in the herb and spice industry, and analytical methods being used to detect it and ultimately prevent it. The economy and consumer confidence can be negatively affected following a food fraud scandal. Fraud may also pose a health risk to consumers, even though it is economically motivated, such as the case with nut protein in cumin and paprika. Therefore, for these reasons, rapid screening techniques are required to detect and help prevent fraud from occurring in the industry. Advances in technology has resulted in an increase in the use of spectroscopic techniques being used alongside chemometrics for the detection of adulteration in the herb and spice industry. Also, improvements in DNA analysis and mass spectrometry are providing faster and cheaper methods of adulteration detection. These advancing techniques aim to protect the herb and spice industry and its consumers from fraud by detecting, deterring and therefore preventing adulteration

    Old Spice - Rebranding Done Right

    No full text
    In this project, the author set out to explore just how Old Spice, via their ´The Man Your Man Could Smell Like´ commercial and subsequent response campaign, managed to rebrand themselves, departing from their outdated profile, to something correlating with trends, pop-culture and youthfulness. The exploration is conducted mostly on a theoretical level, with insight from brand equity and image theory functioning as the foundation on which Old Spice´s marketing efforts are evaluated. We finds that their success was due to a number of factors, some caused by thorough pre-marketing research and some caused by luck in together with sound communication. A main factor of success was their choice of marketing to both men and women, while utilising humour and sex combined with a strong internal/external narrative. Furthermore, their extensive use of celebrity endorsers, as a tool of increasing brand value and salience proved fruitful, because of how their value and meaning was able to transfer to Old Spice's products and brand. Finally, their use of co-creation was extremely successful, as they gained huge attention on the internet, by creating shared value with customers through interrelating video. A stroke of genius and a bit of luck, resulting in a successffaul rebranding of Old Spice

    Here Today, Gone Tomorrow…and Back Again? A Review of Herbal Marijuana Alternatives (K2, Spice), Synthetic Cathinones (Bath Salts), Kratom, Salvia divinorum, Methoxetamine, and Piperazines

    No full text
    Despite their widespread Internet availability and use, many of the new drugs of abuse remain unfamiliar to health care providers. The herbal marijuana alternatives, like K2 or Spice, are a group of herbal blends that contain a mixture of plant matter in addition to chemical grade synthetic cannabinoids. The synthetic cathinones, commonly called "bath salts," have resulted in nationwide emergency department visits for severe agitation, sympathomimetic toxicity, and death. Kratom, a plant product derived from Mitragyna speciosa Korth, has opioid-like effects, and has been used for the treatment of chronic pain and amelioration of opioid-withdrawal symptoms. Salvia divinorum is a hallucinogen with unique pharmacology that has therapeutic potential but has been banned in many states due to concerns regarding its psychiatric effects. Methoxetamine has recently become available via the Internet and is marked as "legal ketamine." Moreover, the piperazine derivatives, a class of amphetamine-like compounds that includes BZP and TMFPP, are making a resurgence as "legal Ecstasy." These psychoactives are available via the Internet, frequently legal, and often perceived as safe by the public. Unfortunately, these drugs often have adverse effects, which range from minimal to life-threatening. Health care providers must be familiar with these important new classes of drugs. This paper discusses the background, pharmacology, clinical effects, detection, and management of synthetic cannabinoid, synthetic cathinone, methoxetamine, and piperazine exposures
