This article describes public trust in health care in three European countries. Public trust is a generalised attitude, influenced by people's experiences in contacts with representatives of institutions, in its turn influencing how people enter these contacts. In general, people in Germany have less trust in health care, while people in England and Wales have the highest trust levels. Cultural differences between the three countries could be an important source of differences. That makes public trust a less straightforward candidate for use as indicator of the future oriented dimension of user views in an international, comparative performance framework.

Comparative cardiometabolic safety and effectiveness of aripiprazole in people with severe mental illness: A target trial emulation.
PLoS Med
January 2025
Division of Psychiatry, University College London, London, United Kingdom.
Background: There is limited and conflicting evidence on the comparative cardiometabolic safety and effectiveness of aripiprazole in the management of severe mental illness. We investigated the hypothesis that aripiprazole has a favourable cardiometabolic profile, but similar effectiveness when compared to olanzapine, quetiapine, and risperidone.
Methods And Findings: We conducted an observational emulation of a head-to-head trial of aripiprazole versus olanzapine, quetiapine, and risperidone in UK primary care using data from the Clinical Practice Research Datalink.
Leptospirosis, melioidosis, and rickettsioses in the vicious circle of neglect.
PLoS Negl Trop Dis
January 2025
Center for Infection and Molecular Medicine, Amsterdam UMC location University of Amsterdam, Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
The global priorities in the field of infectious diseases are constantly changing. While emerging viral infections have regularly dominated public health attention, which has only intensified after the COVID-19 pandemic, numerous bacterial diseases have previously caused, and continue to cause, significant morbidity and mortality-deserving equal attention. Three potentially life-threatening endemic bacterial diseases (leptospirosis, melioidosis, and rickettsioses) are a huge public health concern especially in low- and middle-income countries.

Clinical, Educational and Health Psychology, University College London, London, WC1E 6BT, UK.
Background And Hypothesis: Delusions are classified into themes but the range of themes reported in the literature has never been examined and the extent to which they differ in prevalence, or relate to clinical characteristics or cultural variation, remains poorly understood.
Study Design: We identified studies reporting delusional theme prevalence in adults with psychosis and completed two multivariate, multilevel, random-effects meta-analyses: one including data from structured assessment scales only and another also including data from ad hoc and clinical assessments to include themes from a wider range of countries and contexts. Sensitivity and meta-regression analyses examined the association with clinical and methodological variables.
VIEWER: an extensible visual analytics framework for enhancing mental healthcare.
J Am Med Inform Assoc
January 2025
South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust, London SE5 8AZ, United Kingdom.
Objective: A proof-of-concept study aimed at designing and implementing Visual & Interactive Engagement With Electronic Records (VIEWER), a versatile toolkit for visual analytics of clinical data, and systematically evaluating its effectiveness across various clinical applications while gathering feedback for iterative improvements.
Materials And Methods: VIEWER is an open-source and extensible toolkit that employs natural language processing and interactive visualization techniques to facilitate the rapid design, development, and deployment of clinical information retrieval, analysis, and visualization at the point of care. Through an iterative and collaborative participatory design approach, VIEWER was designed and implemented in one of the United Kingdom's largest National Health Services mental health Trusts, where its clinical utility and effectiveness were assessed using both quantitative and qualitative methods.
