School vaccination programmes to increase HPV vaccination coverage - Experiences from Bremen, Germany.

Despite the introduction of the Human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine into the German vaccination schedule in 2007, coverage remains low. International experience suggests that school-based vaccination can increase HPV coverage.

[Understanding through qualitative methods - the contribution of interpretative social research to health reporting].

Health reporting normally uses quantitative data collected in a standardized manner. The use of qualitative data, using the methods of qualitative social research, is generally the exception. The present article would like to illustrate the potential benefits of using qualitative methods in health reporting.

[Good practice in health reporting-from the beginning to version 2.0].

In the context of public health, health reporting functions as a mediator between science and policy.

The pilot version of the guidelines was drawn up in 2011 and discussed at a number of relevant conferences.

Use of a Lariat Capping Ribozyme to Study Cap Function In Vivo.

A lariat cap is a naturally occurring substitute of a conventional mRNA cap and is found in a particular genomic setting in a few eukaryotic microorganisms. It is installed by the lariat capping ribozyme acting in cis. In principle, any RNA molecule in any organism can be equipped with a lariat cap in vivo when expressed downstream of a lariat capping ribozyme.

Good Practice in Health Reporting - Guidelines and Recommendations 2.0: The boards of the German Society for Social Medicine and Prevention and the German Society for Epidemiology have approved this second edition of Good Practice in Health Reporting..

Health reporting provides a description of the health of the population, analyses problems and demonstrates areas in which action needs to be taken in health care provision, health promotion and disease prevention. Accordingly, it offers a rational basis for participatory processes and health policy decision-making. This edition of Good Practice in Health Reporting resulted from a revision of the first edition, which was first published in March 2017.
