'Picking up the pieces': primary care practitioners' experiences of cancer care reviews.

Background: The number of people who are living with and beyond cancer is increasing in England. Primary care delivers cancer care via structured proactive conversations which are incentivised through the Quality and Outcomes Framework (QoF): 'cancer care reviews' (CCRs). Declining workforce numbers, increasing patient demand, CCR policy changes in 2020 and the onset of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, highlight a need to explore how staff deliver CCRs.

People from ethnic minorities seeking help for long COVID: a qualitative study.

Background: People from ethnic minority groups are disproportionately affected by COVID-19, less likely to access primary health care, and have reported dissatisfaction with health care. Although the prevalence of long COVID in ethnic minority groups is unclear, such populations are underrepresented in long-COVID specialist clinics and long-COVID lived-experience research, which informed the original long-COVID healthcare guidelines.

Aim: To understand the lived experiences of long COVID in people from ethnic minority groups.

Prevalence of multimorbidity in survivors of 28 cancer sites: an English nationwide cross-sectional study.

Multimorbidity, the presence of a chronic condition in addition to cancer, is of particular importance to cancer survivors. It has an impact on the progression, stage at diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of cancer patients. Evidence is scarce on the prevalence of specific comorbidities in survivors of different cancers to inform prevention and management of multimorbidity.

Multimorbidity in people living with and beyond cancer: a scoping review.

Globally, both cancer incidence and survival are increasing. Early cancer detection and improved treatment means many people with cancer will survive for ten or more years following diagnosis. Multimorbidity, defined as two or more chronic conditions, is up to three times higher in people living with and beyond cancer (LWBC) compared to the general population.

Vaccination uptake amongst older adults from minority ethnic backgrounds: A systematic review.

Background: Older adults from minority ethnic backgrounds are at increased risk of contracting COVID-19 and developing severe infection and have increased risk of mortality. Whilst an age-based vaccination approach prioritising older groups is being implemented worldwide, vaccine hesitancy is high amongst minority ethnic groups.

Methods And Findings: We conducted a systematic review and convergent synthesis to systematically examine perceptions of vaccinations amongst older adults from minority ethnic backgrounds.

'It's like juggling fire daily': Well-being, workload and burnout in the British NHS - A survey of 721 physicians.

Background: Physicians are at higher risk for burnout than workers in other fields. Burnout negatively impacts physician health, care delivery and healthcare cost. Existing studies quantify the workforce affected by burnout whilst qualitative studies use specific specialty groups limiting generalisability of solutions.

Implicit bias in healthcare: clinical practice, research and decision making.

Bias is the evaluation of something or someone that can be positive or negative, and implicit or unconscious bias is when the person is unaware of their evaluation. This is particularly relevant to policymaking during the coronavirus pandemic and racial inequality highlighted during the support for the Black Lives Matter movement. A literature review was performed to define bias, identify the impact of bias on clinical practice and research as well as clinical decision making (cognitive bias).
