Article Synopsis
- The increasing morbidity and mortality of tuberculosis (TB) in the elderly is influenced by medication-related burden (MRB) and poor treatment adherence, making it crucial to understand these issues for effective treatment.
- A study conducted in Guizhou, China, revealed that nearly half of elderly TB patients reported moderate to high MRB, with a substantial 33.6% experiencing nonadherence to treatment, largely due to practical difficulties and side effects of medications.
- Higher education levels were associated with lower nonadherence, while reliance on retirement income increased the risk, highlighting the importance of addressing MRB and socio-economic factors to improve treatment outcomes.

Aims: Unintentional injuries in the home contribute substantially to preschool child morbidity and mortality. Practitioners such as health visitors, family mentors and children's centre staff are well-positioned to facilitate child injury prevention by providing home safety advice to families, and training may enhance their ability to do so. We aimed to assess the impact of child home safety training for these practitioners.

Unit of Lifespan and Population Health, University of Nottingham Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, Nottingham, UK.
Background: Injuries in children aged under 5 years most commonly occur in the home and disproportionately affect those living in the most disadvantaged communities. The 'Safe at Home' (SAH) national home safety equipment scheme, which ran in England between 2009 and 2011, has been shown to reduce injury-related hospital admissions, but there is little evidence of cost-effectiveness.
