Many of the characteristics cited in Hibbing et al.'s account are ineffective predictors of economic conservatism. However, these same characteristics are often associated with differences not only in social conservatism but also in religiousness and authoritarianism. Hibbing et al. may have offered a useful explanation of traditionalism and attitudes toward change across domains rather than of general political attitudes.

Anniversary fever? History and the culture of NHS celebration.
Mod Br Hist
January 2025
Centre for the History of Medicine, University of Warwick, Coventry, CV4 7AL, UK.
Delivered a day after Britain's National Health Service (NHS) reached its 75th year since its opening on the Appointed Day of 5 July 1948, the Pimlott Lecture for 2023 explored the culture of NHS anniversary-making. What can the marking of these anniversaries tell us about changing attitudes towards the service, and indeed, the British state? Here, examining evidence from the media, government archives, and Mass Observation, we argue that NHS anniversaries have long functioned as points of reflection but that their role as moments of national celebration and even communion has come to the fore only recently and culminated in the apparent 'anniversary fever' of 2018. We will explore the reasons behind the growing public fervour, what it can tell us, and the lessons offered by our work on this (still) best-loved of British institutions for historians working on highly politicized objects in 'fevered' times.

Department of Public Health, The Research Unit for General Practice and Section of General Practice, University of Copenhagen, Copenhagen, Denmark.
Background: Many medical organisations recommend continuing with existing mammography screening programmes but some recommend stopping or de-intensifying them. In Denmark women aged 50-69 are offered biennial mammograms free-of-charge.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to determine whether or not an informed public would recommend continuation of the Danish mammography screening programme, and to determine whether this recommendation was in line with what participants considered to be acceptable levels of mortality reduction and overdiagnosis.
Background: Recent advances in diagnostics have made it possible to identify early signs of the pathophysiological changes underlying Alzheimer's Disease (AD) via blood tests. However, the use of blood-based biomarkers (BBBMs) for the early detection of AD may be limited in primary care settings despite its potential for wide access and early detection of AD (PMID: 37295421) Therefore, there is a need to understand the barriers and facilitators of BBBM testing for AD in primary care.
Method: We employed a combination of qualitative research, advisory board, and quantitative survey to engage with clinical/scientific advisors and community-based physicians in primary care.
Davos Alzheimer's Collaborative Healthcare System Preparedness (DAC-SP) aims to catalyze global healthcare system transformation, providing patients with quicker access to life-changing innovations and therapies. Utilizing implementation science, the DAC-SP Early Detection flagship program launched in 2021, engaging seven healthcare systems across six countries (Brazil, Jamaica, Japan, Mexico, Scotland, and the United States). The program's primary aim was to increase the rate of early detection of cognitive impairment by integrating commercially available digital cognitive assessments (DCAs) into primary care and other non-specialty care settings.

Background: While two-thirds of the 57 million people with dementia worldwide live in low- and middle-income countries, research to inform dementia-related policy in these regions remains scarce. We aimed to increase early dementia diagnosis and the use of standardized cognitive assessment by PCP in primary care settings in Cuba METHOD: We selected 16 Primary care clinics, with an estimated 160-200 providers. Clinics were carefully paired based on a number of providers, population demographics, and baseline rates of cognitive impairment diagnosis before being randomized into two groups: one to receive a targeted intervention and the other to continue with usual care practices.
