Is the cultural context of MMR rejection a key to an effective public health discourse?
No full textSummary Objectives: (1) To explore the social and cultural influences, and health beliefs associated with low uptake of MMR (measles, mumps and rubella vaccine). (2) To describe and explore the prevalence of health beliefs associated with non- compliance with MMR, with a view to improving the personal relevance and impact of information for parents, in the context of persisting low uptake following public controversy.
Methods: We undertook a survey of mothers’ experiences of and attitudes to the MMR, developed through ethnographic study, which was linked to maternal and child information on the Child Health Database in Brighton, England. Results: Mothers interpret MMR risk through concepts of child health embedded in family health history, with a majority both of compliers and non-compliers holding that each child’s immune system is unique. Cultural ‘risk factors’ for non-compliance relate strongly to the use of complementary healthcare, such as homeopathy, with evidence that rejection of vitamin K is associated with MMR non-compliance. Forty per cent, both of compliers and non-compliers, did not consider the possible benefits to other children of MMR.
Conclusions: These findings have paradoxical and challenging consequences for the promotion of immunization in the policy context of increasing emphasis on healthy choices. They demonstrate the need for immunization information that acknowl- edges and addresses lay concepts of immunity
Investments in sexually transmitted infection research, 1997–2013: a systematic analysis of funding awarded to UK institutions
No full textBackground: We report the first study that analyses public and philanthropic investments awarded to UK institutions for research related to sexually transmitted infections (STIs).Methods: We systematically searched award data from the major funders for information on all infectious disease research funding awarded in 1997–2013. The STI–related projects were identified and categorised by pathogen, disease and type of science along the research pipeline from preclinical to translational research.Findings: We identified 7393 infection–related awards with total investment of GBP 3.5 billion. Of these, 1238 awards (16.7%) covering funding of GBP 719.1 million (20.5%) were for STI research. HIV as an STI received GBP 465 million across 719 studies; non–HIV STIs received GBP 139 million across 378 studies. The Medical Research Council provided greatest investment (GBP 193 million for HIV, GBP 45 million for non–HIV STIs). Preclinical awards totalled GBP 233 million (37.1%), whilst translational research received GBP 286 million (39.7%). Substantial proportions of HIV investment addressed global health research (GBP 265 million), vaccinology (GBP 110 million) and therapeutics (GBP 202 million). For other STIs, investments focused on diagnostics (GBP 45 million) and global health (GBP 27 million). Human Papilloma Virus research received GBP 58 million and chlamydia GBP 24 million. Funding for non–HIV STIs has declined in the three most recent years of this data set.Conclusions: The investment for HIV research awarded to UK institutions correlates with the high global burden, but other STIs are relatively neglected, including gonorrhoea and syphilis. Future STI funding should be better aligned with burden while addressing the emerging risk of antimicrobial resistance in Neisseria gonorrhoeae and outbreaks of other pathogens
Ontologia e epistemologia do sofrimento em Cassell
No full textThe present work aims to present an ontological and epistemological analysis of the theory of suffering in Eric J. Cassell (2004), as a subsidy for the development of research on suffering at work, in Social Sciences, based on this theory. Therefore, the work, of a theoretical-conceptual nature, initially presents the foundations of the ontological approaches of realism and idealism and the epistemological approaches of positivism, constructivism and post-positivism. With this reference, the work continues analyzing the ontological and epistemological aspects of the author's theory of suffering. The conclusion is that the author's theoretical proposal for understanding suffering promotes a methodological advance in the field of medicine by integrating aspects of idealism and constructivism in the theory and practices of a science that is fundamentally realistic and positivist. The concept of suffering thus proposed by the author opens up possibilities for its application in the Social Sciences and in the management of organizations to understand the phenomenon in other contexts and realities.O presente trabalho tem como objetivo apresentar uma análise ontológica e epistemológica da teoria do sofrimento em Eric J. Cassell (2004), como subsídio para o desenvolvimento de pesquisas sobre o sofrimento no trabalho, em Ciências Sociais, baseadas nesta teoria. Para tanto, o trabalho, de cunho teórico-conceitual, inicialmente apresenta os fundamentos das abordagens ontológicas do realismo e do idealismo e das abordagens epistemológicas do positivismo, construtivismo e pós-positivismo. Com este referencial, o trabalho prossegue analisando os aspectos ontológicos e epistemológicos da teoria do sofrimento do autor. A conclusão é que a proposta teórica do autor para compreensão do sofrimento promove um avanço metodológico no campo da Medicina ao integrar aspectos do idealismo e do construtivismo na teoria e práticas de uma ciência que é fundamentalmente realista e positivista. O conceito de sofrimento assim proposto pelo autor abre possibilidades para sua aplicação nas Ciências Sociais e de gestão das organizações para a compreensão do fenômeno em outros contextos e realidades
Measuring industry-science links through inventor-author relations: A profiling method
No full textIn this pilot study we examine the performance of text-based profiling in recovering a set of validated inventor-author links. In a first step we match patents and publications solely based on their similarity in content. Next, we compare inventor and author names on the highest ranked matches for the occurrence of name matches. Finally, we compare these candidate matches with the names listed in a validated set of inventor-author names. Our text-based profile methodology performs significantly better than a random matching of patents and publications, suggesting that text-based profiling is a valuable complementary tool to the name searches used in previous studies.innovation; industry-science links; text-based profiling;
