Evaluating the impact of a training program to support transitioning from the hospital to the community for people after stroke: a community case study.

Background: The transitions in care along the stroke recovery path are challenging, particularly in finding mechanisms to continue one's recovery once at home. We aim to evaluate the impact of training physiotherapists and fitness instructors from one regional community together to deliver an evidence-based group exercise program starting in the hospital and transitioning to the community using an implementation approach.

Methods: The evidenced based exercise program Fitness and Mobility Exercise (FAME) for stroke was chosen as the intervention.

Sexual health experiences, knowledge and understanding in low SES female teenagers: A diary approach.

Introduction: Understanding how teenagers think about sexual health and assessing the ways in which they engage with sexual health information are important issues in the development of appropriate sexual health education programmes. Sexual health education programs in the UK are inconsistent and is not possible to assume that teenagers' information needs are being met by such programs. Teenagers often feel uncomfortable discussing sexual health making it difficult to assess teenagers' understanding and engagement with the topic.

Prevalence, risk factors, and treatment for women with stress urinary incontinence in a racially and ethnically diverse population.

Aims: Black women may have lower rates of SUI than Whites, whereas the rate of SUI in Hispanic women varies. Most studies have been conducted in predominantly White populations, making it difficult to evaluate race and SUI. The objective of this study was to estimate the prevalence of SUI in a diverse population and examine racial/ethnic differences in risk factors and treatment.

Prevalence, Risk Factors, and Treatment for Overactive Bladder in a Racially Diverse Population.

Objective: To evaluate differences in prevalence, overactive bladder (OAB) risk factors, and OAB treatment in a diverse population of underrepresented racial/ethnic groups.

Methods: This is a retrospective cohort study of women ≥ 18 years who had an OAB diagnosis code from June 1, 2013 to June 30, 2016. Women who had neurogenic bladder or pelvic cancer were excluded.

Public health guide to field developments linking ecosystems, environments and health in the Anthropocene.

The impacts of global environmental change have precipitated numerous approaches that connect the health of ecosystems, non-human organisms and humans. However, the proliferation of approaches can lead to confusion due to overlaps in terminology, ideas and foci. Recognising the need for clarity, this paper provides a guide to seven field developments in environmental public health research and practice: occupational and environmental health; political ecology of health; environmental justice; ecohealth; One Health; ecological public health; and planetary health.
