"Effectiveness of health literacy- and patient activation-targeted inte" by H. Hosseinzadeh, S. Downie et al.

Chronic diseases are the leading causes of morbidity and mortality and account for approximately 60% of all deaths worldwide. Self-management is a key strategy to manage chronic diseases, and there is emerging evidence recommending targeting both health literacy (HL) and patient activation (PA) to improve chronic disease self-management outcomes. The aim of this systematic review is to summarise the current evidence on the impact of HL- and PA-led interventions on self-management outcomes using randomised control trials (RCTs). Six well known databases (MEDLINE, Web of Science, Scopus, Science Citation Index, EMBASE and Academic Search Complete) were searched for RCTs of chronic disease self-management interventions targeting both HL and PA and published between 2004 and June 2021. The search terms included chronic disease, self-management, patient activation/engagement and health literacy/education. Ten studies were eligible for inclusion. We found that patients with low HL and PA lev ....

Frontiers | Cancer Screening Knowledge and Behavior in a Multi-Ethnic Asian Population: The Singapore Community Health Study

Background: Cancer has become the leading cause of mortality in Singapore and among other Asian populations worldwide. Despite the presence of National Cancer Screening programmes in Singapore, less than half of the population has had timely screening according to guidelines. The underlying factors of poor cancer screening rates and health outcomes among Asian ethnic groups remain poorly understood. We therefore examined cancer screening participation rates and screening behaviour in a multi-ethnic Singapore population. Methods: We collected data from 7,125 respondents of the 2015-2016 Singapore Community Health Study. Factors associated with cervical, breast, and colorectal cancer screening were evaluated using modified Poisson regression. Adjusted prevalence ratios were computed with 95% confidence intervals after adjusting for confounders. Results: The respondents’ mean age was 57.7±10.9 years, 58.9% were female and were predominately Chinese (73.0%), followed by Malay (14.2% ....

Annual General Meeting Announcement, 17 Dec 2020 01:00

As the famous investor Ray Dalio has said, truth is the essential foundation for good outcomes . Yet the government has relied on information that has often turned out to be untrue.

For example, Imperial College research in March, which precipitated a lockdown in over 100 countries, including the first major pub closure in history in the UK, was deeply flawed.

Indeed, lockdowns, the core of the UK s current strategy, have been shown by many studies to be ineffective, and often counterproductive. Examples can be found in appendix 1.

David Nabarro, of the World Health Organisation, has recently emphasised their destructive effects, especially for the least well-off. ....
