Barriers to healthcare access and experiences of stigma: Findings from a coproduced Long Covid case-finding study
By:
Donna Clutterbuck
on
APR
18
CONCLUSION: We have codeveloped recommendations based on the findings. These include early signposting to services, dedicating protected time to listening to people with Long Covid, providing a holistic approach in care pathways, and working to mitigate stigma. Regardless of the diagnosis, people experiencing new symptoms must be encouraged to seek timely medical help. Clear public health messaging is needed among communities already disadvantaged by epistemic injustice to raise awareness of...

Socioeconomic and ethnic disparities in the process of care and outcomes among cancer patients with acute coronary syndrome
By:
Mohamed Mohamed

MAR
27
Cancer and acute coronary syndrome (ACS) are the leading causes of morbidity and mortality globally, with many shared risk factors between both conditions. There are several challenges to the management of patients with cancer presenting with ACS due to their higher baseline risk profile, the complexities of their cancer-related therapies and prognosis, and their higher risk of adverse outcomes after ACS. Although previous studies have demonstrated disparities in the care of both cancer and ACS...

Prevalence of mental health conditions and brain fog in people with long COVID: A systematic review and meta-analysis
By:
Christina van der Feltz-Cornelis
on
MAR
06
CONCLUSIONS: Given the increasing prevalence of mental health conditions and brain fog over time, preventive interventions and treatments are needed. Research is needed to explore underlying mechanisms that could inform further research in development of effective treatments. The reduced risk of brain fog associated with vaccination emphasizes the need for ongoing vaccination programs.

Disparities by social determinants of health: links between Long COVID and cardiovascular disease
By:
Amitava Banerjee
on
MAR
01
Long COVID has been defined by World Health Organization as "continuation or development of new symptoms 3 months after the initial SARS-CoV-2 infection, with these symptoms lasting for at least 2 months with no other explanation". Cardiovascular disease is implicated as a risk factor, concomitant condition and consequence of Long COVID. As well as heterogeneity in definition, presentation and likely underlying pathophysiology of Long COVID, disparities by social determinants of health,...

Intersectional social determinants including ethnicity are vital in health research. We curated a population-wide data resource of self-identified ethnicity data from over 60 million individuals in England primary care, linking it to hospital records. We assessed ethnicity data in terms of completeness, consistency, and granularity and found one in ten individuals do not have ethnicity information recorded in primary care. By linking to hospital records, ethnicity data were completed for 94% of...

BATMAN: Improved T cell receptor cross-reactivity prediction benchmarked on a comprehensive mutational scan database
By:
Amitava Banerjee
on
FEB
19
Predicting T cell receptor (TCR) activation is challenging due to the lack of both unbiased benchmarking datasets and computational methods that are sensitive to small mutations to a peptide. To address these challenges, we curated a comprehensive database encompassing complete single amino acid mutational assays of 10,750 TCR-peptide pairs, centered around 14 immunogenic peptides against 66 TCRs. We then present an interpretable Bayesian model, called BATMAN, that can predict the set of...

Sex-Based Disparities in Acute Myocardial Infarction Treatment Patterns and Outcomes in Older Adults Hospitalized Across 6 High-Income Countries: An Analysis From the International Health Systems Research Collaborative
By:
Hannah Lu
on
FEB
08
CONCLUSIONS: We observed a larger decline in acute myocardial infarction hospitalizations for females than males between 2011 and 2018. Females were less likely to receive cardiac interventions and had higher mortality after STEMI. Sex disparities seem to transcend borders, raising questions about the underlying causes and remedies.

Nicotine and Cardiovascular Health: When Poison is Addictive - a WHF Policy Brief
By:
E Ulysses Dorotheo
on
FEB
05
Nicotine is universally recognized as the primary addictive substance fuelling the continued use of tobacco products, which are responsible for over 8 million deaths annually. In recent years, the popularity of newer recreational nicotine products has surged drastically in many countries, raising health and safety concerns. For decades, the tobacco industry has promoted the myth that nicotine is as harmless as caffeine. Nonetheless, evidence shows that nicotine is far from innocuous, even on its...
