Background: This paper looks at attrition in relation to deprivation and type of therapy - CBT or person-centred counselling.
Method: Case notes of all those referred in a 4-month period (n = 497) were assessed for those who failed to opt-in; those who opted-in but failed to attend first appointment and those who attended first appointment but subsequently dropped-out.
Results: Significant numbers failed to opt-in, attend first appointment or dropped out during therapy. There were no differences between CBT and PCT. Those from the most deprived areas were less likely to opt-in.
Conclusions: We need to develop better approaches to attracting and maintaining contact with individuals complaining of common mental health problems.

One of the most aggressive, and compelling, proposals to resolve this tragedy is postmortem organ conscription, also called routine salvaging or organ draft. This proposal entails postmortem retrieval of needed organs, regardless of the prior authorization or refusal of the deceased or his family.

Article Synopsis
- The UK is experiencing population growth and an increase in inactivity and health issues, highlighting the need for better exercise interventions to enhance health and reduce healthcare costs.
- Current exercise strategies often rely on a 'one-size-fits-all' approach that doesn't provide significant health benefits, especially for those with chronic conditions.
- The proposal recommends establishing a clinical exercise physiology profession in the UK, similar to successful models in Australia, with accredited professionals trained to offer personalized exercise prescriptions and support behavioral changes in physical activity.
