Estimating the effect of transitioning to a strength-based alcohol tax system on alcohol consumption and health outcomes: a modelling study of tax reform in England. Lancet Public Health (IF 25.4) Pub Date : 2024-09-16 Damon Morris,Colin Angus,Duncan Gillespie,Abigail K Stevely,Robert Pryce,Luke Wilson,Madeleine Henney,Petra S Meier,John Holmes,Alan Brennan
BACKGROUND Increasing the amount of alcohol taxation is among the most effective measures for addressing the rising global burden of alcohol harm. However, less is known about the effect of changing alcohol tax structures. Substantial reforms to UK alcohol taxation structures enacted in August, 2023, mean that all alcohol is taxed based on its ethanol content, beers and ciders sold in on-trade premises

Preventing suicide: a public health approach to a global problem. Lancet Public Health (IF 25.4) Pub Date : 2024-09-09 Jane Pirkis,Rakhi Dandona,Morton Silverman,Murad Khan,Keith Hawton
Suicide is prevalent in all countries and is largely preventable. The causes of suicide are multiple and varied. Social determinants of suicide are crucial, but to date these have received insufficient policy attention. This paper, which is the first in a Series on taking a public health approach to suicide prevention, argues for a major change in the way we think about suicide and its prevention.

A public health approach to suicide prevention recognises the powerful influence of social determinants. In this paper-the fifth in a Series on a public health approach to suicide prevention-we consider four major risk factors for suicide (alcohol use, gambling, domestic violence and abuse, and suicide bereavement) and examine how their influence on suicide is socially determined. Cultural factors

Restriction of access to means used for suicide. Lancet Public Health (IF 25.4) Pub Date : 2024-09-09 Keith Hawton,Duleeka Knipe,Jane Pirkis
One of the most effective public health measures to prevent suicide is the restriction of access to means used in suicidal acts. This approach can be especially effective if a method is common and readily accessible. Suicide methods vary widely, and there have been several examples where means restriction has been applied, often with considerable success. Factors contributing to availability of suicide

The effect of economic downturn, financial hardship, unemployment, and relevant government responses on suicide. Lancet Public Health (IF 25.4) Pub Date : 2024-09-09 Mark Sinyor,Morton Silverman,Jane Pirkis,Keith Hawton
Economic circumstances and related factors, including unemployment and poverty, can have substantial effects on suicide rates. This relationship applies in all countries, irrespective of their World Bank income status or level of development. Therefore, means of mitigating such influences are essential components of strategies to reduce suicides. In this Series paper, we consider examples of such initiatives

Preventing suicide: a call to action. Lancet Public Health (IF 25.4) Pub Date : 2024-09-09 Keith Hawton,Jane Pirkis
The public health approach to suicide prevention requires us to move away from thinking about suicide as a purely clinical problem and to pay heed to the array of social determinants (such as financial hardship or domestic violence and abuse) that might lead people to consider suicide as an option. Clinical factors are important, and, indeed, clinical or indicated interventions are entirely appropriate

Transmission is an important concept in suicide prevention. It can occur when exposure to another person's death by suicide (or to suicide-related information more generally) draws attention to suicide or highlights specific suicide methods. In this paper, the fourth in a Series on a public health approach to suicide prevention, we contend that the transmissibility of suicide must be considered when

BACKGROUND Mortality, suicide, self-harm, and substance use are elevated among people who are incarcerated. There is a wide range of heterogeneous interventions aimed at reducing these harms in this population. Previous reviews have focused on specific interventions or limited their findings to drug use and recidivism and have not explored interventions delivered after release from prison. Our aim

BACKGROUND Estimates for the prevalence of food allergy vary widely, with a paucity of data for adults. The aim of this analysis was to report trends in the incidence and prevalence of food allergy in England, using a national primary care dataset.

In 21st century capitalism, financial markets reign supreme. The elevation of investing, trading, and speculating as a way of making profit has shifted economic power towards institutional investors and enhanced the power of financial capital. Financialisation has introduced uncertainty in the commitment to public provision of goods and services. The behaviours of corporations focus more on profit

Excessively high and low temperatures substantially affect human health. Climate change is expected to exacerbate heat-related morbidity and mortality, presenting unprecedented challenges to public health systems.

The increasing use of digital media and devices by children has led to growing concerns that spending time online without sufficient guarding is having negative effects on their health and wellbeing. In this Viewpoint, we argue that children's use of digital technologies and engagement in digital environments should be recognised as important determinants of their health and that a public health approach

Potential impact of replacing the 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine with 15-valent or 20-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine in the 1 + 1 infant schedule in England: a modelling study Lancet Public Health (IF 25.4) Pub Date : 2024-08-14 Yoon Hong Choi PhD, Marta Bertran MSc, David J Litt PhD, Prof Shamez N Ladhani PhD, Prof Elizabeth Miller FMedSci
Paediatric pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV) programmes in England using seven-valent PCV (PCV7) in 2006 and 13-valent PCV (PCV13) in 2010 have reduced vaccine-type invasive pneumococcal disease, but the overall effect has been reduced by an increase in invasive pneumococcal disease due to non-vaccine serotypes and serotype 3.

BACKGROUND Socioeconomic inequalities in epilepsy incidence and its adverse outcomes are documented internationally, yet the extent of inequalities and factors influencing the association can differ between countries. A UK public health response to epilepsy, which prevents epilepsy without widening inequalities, is required. However, the data on UK epilepsy inequalities have not been synthesised in

Adolescence is a time of physical, cognitive, social, and emotional development.
