This is our Business Plan for the next year; 2017-18. In health, as in other sectors, innovation and adoption at scale is increasingly driven by interdisciplinary research, synergies between industries, and a step-change in end-user (citizen, consumer, patient) engagement in the process. Seeing the wood from the trees, making connections, spotting opportunities, and understanding how to get traction requires a breadth of perspective and strong roots into, and across, that landscape. Academic Health Science Networks (AHSNs) connect horizontally across research, industries, commissioners, providers and users; and network vertically between policy formulation, system design, operational coal-face and end-user experience. That role takes us across all parts of the NHS, into industry, local government and other public agencies, into universities, charities, start-ups, and into funders. And up and down the system; from the role of the GP receptionist in improvement and innovation; to dialogue with policy makers and regulators about refining system design to support adoption and spread of innovation. Networks which are open to, and embrace, the diverse perspectives of these stakeholders will, in turn, help the systems and members which they support be open to the adoption and spread of innovation. That is what we, Wessex AHSN, aspire to. We hope you find this spirit reflected in our business plan.

The Small Steps to Health and Wealth initiative encourages participants to make positive behavior changes to simultaneously improve their health and personal finances. This presentation is a collaborative effort of the Military Families Learning Network and the Child and Family Learning Network. Small Steps to Health and Wealth™ (SSHW) is a national Cooperative Extension program developed by Dr. Barbara O’Neill and Dr. Karen Ensle at Rutgers University that encourages participants to make positive behavior changes to simultaneously improve their health and personal finances. It is believed to be the first long-term program ever developed to motivate Americans to simultaneously apply the same personal behavior change strategies to both areas of their lives. SSHW was developed because many Americans have both health and financial “issues.” Societal problems that have been widely reported in recent years include an increasing incidence of diabetes, overweight, and obesity, low household savings, high household debt levels, and bankruptcy filings. The SSHW program includes 25 behavior change strategies that people can adopt to address these concerns. Each involves taking small positive steps that people can put into practice on a daily basis. This 90-minute webinar will begin by describing relationships between people's health and personal finances. It will then describe each one of the 25 behavior change strategies and how people can apply them to their lives.

(2017). Effects of weight loss interventions for adults who are obese on mortality, cardiovascular disease, and cancer: Systematic review and meta-analysis. BMJ, 359, j4849. Adults with obesity have an increased risk of premature mortality, cardiovascular disease, some cancers, type 2 diabetes, and many other diseases. This review assesses whether weight loss intervention for adults with obesity affect all cause, cardiovascular, and cancer mortality, cardiovascular disease, cancer, and body weight. Fifty-four randomized controlled trials (RCTs) with 30,206 participants were identified in the review. High quality evidence showed that weight loss interventions decrease all cause mortality, with six fewer deaths per 1000 participants. Moderate quality evidence showed an effect on cardiovascular mortality, and very low quality evidence showed an effect on cancer mortality. Weight reducing diets, usually low in fat and saturated fat, with or without exercise advice or programmes, may reduce premature all cause mortality in adults with obesity.

Siemieniuk, MD, PhD(c), Department of Medicine, University of Toronto, Department of Health Research Methods, Evidence, and Impact, McMaster University led the session and presented findings from their recent systematic review: Siemieniuk R, Foroutan F, Mirza R, Mah Ming J, Alexander PE, Agarwal A, et al. (2017). Antiretroviral therapy for pregnant women living with HIV or hepatitis B: A systematic review and meta-analysis. BMJ Open, 7(9), e019022. This review assesses the impact of various antiretroviral/antiviral regimens in pregnant women living with HIV or hepatitis B virus (HBV). Forty-three studies were included in the review. The most common comparison was tenofovir and emtricitabine versus zidovudine and lamivudine. There was no apparent difference between tenofovir-based regimens and alternatives in maternal outcomes, including serious laboratory adverse events and serious clinical adverse events. There was no difference between NRTIs in vertical transmission of HIV or vertical transmission of HBV. We found moderate certainty evidence that tenofovir/emtricitabine increases the risk of stillbirths and early neonatal mortality and the risk of early premature delivery at less than 34 weeks. Tenofovir/emtricitabine is likely to increase stillbirth/early neonatal death and early premature delivery compared with zidovudine/lamivudine, but certainty is low when they are not coprescribed with lopinavir/ritonavir. Other outcomes are likely similar between antiretrovirals. Lyuba Lytvyn, MSc, PhD(c), Department of Health Research Methods, Evidence, and Impact, McMaster University also briefly presented the findings from their linked systematic review on values and preferences of pregnant women with HIV: Lytvyn L, Siemieniuk R, Dilmitis S, Ion A, Chang Y, Bala M, et al.

(2017). Effect of tobacco control policies on perinatal and child health: A systematic review and meta-analysis. The Lancet Public Health, 2(9), e420-e437. Tobacco smoking and smoke exposure during pregnancy and childhood cause considerable childhood morbidity and mortality. This review examines the effect of tobacco control policies on perinatal and child health. Forty-one studies were included in the review. Implementation of smoke-free legislation was associated with reductions in rates of preterm birth, rates of hospital attendance for asthma exacerbations and rates of hospital attendance for all respiratory tract infections and for lower respiratory tract infections. Among two studies assessing the association between smoke-free legislation and perinatal mortality, one showed significant reductions in stillbirth and neonatal mortality but did not report the overall effect on perinatal mortality, while the other showed no change in perinatal mortality. Meta-analysis of studies on other MPOWER policies was not possible; all four studies on increasing tobacco taxation and one of two on offering disadvantaged pregnant women help to quit smoking that reported on our primary outcomes had positive findings. These findings provide strong support for implementation of such policies comprehensively across the world.

Vitamin A deficiency is a major public health problem in low- and middle-income countries, affecting 190 million children under five years of age and leading to many adverse health consequences, including death. This review examines the effectiveness of vitamin A supplementation (VAS) for preventing morbidity and mortality in children aged six months to five years. Forty-seven randomized control trials involving approximately 1,223,856 children were included in this review. VAS was associated with a clinically meaningful reduction in morbidity and mortality in children.

(2016). Motivational interviewing for the prevention of alcohol misuse in young adults. Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2016(7), CD007025. https://www.healthevidence.org/view-article.aspx?a=motivational-interviewing-prevention-alcohol-misuse-young-adults-29645 According to the World Health Organization, alcohol is responsible for approximately 9% of deaths within the 15-29 year old age bracket. This review examines the effectiveness of MI interventions for preventing alcohol misuse and alcohol-related problems in young adults. Eighty-four trials with 22,872 participants were included in this review. Findings suggest that MI interventions only slightly reduce quantity of alcohol consumed, frequency of alcohol consumption, and peak blood alcohol concentration, and only marginally reduce alcohol problems in young adults aged up to 25 years, compared to no intervention/placebo/treatment as usual. This webinar provided an overview of the effectiveness of MI interventions in preventing alcohol misuse and alcohol-related problems in young adults.

(2017). Support for healthy breastfeeding mothers with healthy term babies . Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2017(2), CD001141. Evidence suggests that not breastfeeding negatively impacts the health of both infants and mothers. Additionally, data demonstrates an inadequate uptake of the World Health Organization’s recommendations regarding type and duration of breastfeeding in many countries. This review examines the impact of breastfeeding support interventions on breastfeeding duration and exclusivity in healthy breastfeeding mothers with healthy term babies, compared to usual care. One-hundred trials with over 83,246 mother-infant pairs were included in this review. Seventy-three of the one-hundred trials were involved in the data analyses. Findings suggest that breastfeeding support interventions reduce cessation of ‘any breastfeeding’ before 4 to 6 weeks and 6 months, and cessation of ‘exclusive breastfeeding’ at 4 to 6 weeks and at 6 months. This webinar will provide an overview of the impact of support on breastfeeding duration and exclusivity in healthy breastfeeding mothers with healthy term babies.

Click here for access to the audio recording for this webinar: https://youtu.be/Fb6_t7_TGxw Kevin Cradock, PhD student, National University of Ireland, Galway led the session and presented findings from his recent systematic review: Cradock K, OLaighin G, Finucane F, Gainforth H, Quinlan L, & Ginis K. (2017). Behaviour change techniques targeting both diet and physical activity in type 2 diabetes: A systematic review and meta-analysis. International Journal of Behavioral Nutrition and Physical Activity, 14(1), 18. Changing diet and physical activity behaviour is one of the cornerstones of type 2 diabetes treatment, but changing behaviour is challenging. The objective of this study was to identify behaviour change techniques (BCTs) and intervention features of dietary and physical activity interventions for patients with type 2 diabetes that are associated with changes in HbA1c. Thirteen RCTs were identified. Diet and physical activity interventions achieved clinically significant reductions in HbA1c at three and six months, but not at 12 and 24 months. Specific BCTs and intervention features identified may inform more effective structured lifestyle intervention treatment strategies for type 2 diabetes.

Click here for access to the audio recording for this webinar: https://youtu.be/yCeIEQ4OTCc Amanda Mason-Jones, Senior Lecturer in Global Public Health, Faculty of Science, University of York led the session and presented findings from her recent Cochrane review: Mason-Jones A, Sinclair D, Mathews C, Kagee A, Hillman A, & Lombard C. (2016). School-based interventions for preventing HIV, sexually transmitted infections, and pregnancy in adolescents.Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2016(11), CD006417 http://healthevidence.org/view-article.aspx?a=school-based-interventions-preventing-hiv-sexually-transmitted-infections-29881 Sexually active adolescents are at risk of contracting HIV and STIs. Unintended pregnancy can have detrimental impact on young people’s lives. This review examines the impact of school sexual education programs on number of young people that contract STIs and number of adolescent pregnancies. Eight cluster randomized control trials, including 55,157 participants are included in this review. Findings suggest there is little evidence that school programs alone are effective in improving sexual and reproductive health outcomes for adolescents. This webinar examined the effectiveness and components of interventions that prevent HIV, STIs and adolescent pregnancy.

Electronic cigarettes have been increasing in popularity among smokers who report using them for quitting or reducing smoking. This review examines the effectiveness of electronic cigarettes as cessation aids. Sixty two articles, including RCTs, experimental, longitudinal and cross sectional studies are included in this review. Findings suggest there is inconclusive evidence due to low quality of research. This webinar provides a comprehensive overview of current literature examining the effectiveness of electronic cigarettes for smoking cessation.

Health Evidence hosted a 90 minute webinar examining the effectiveness of interventions for preventing elder abuse. Philip Baker, Australia Regional Director APACPH, School of Public Health and Social Work Queensland University of Technology led the session and presented findings from their review: Baker PRA, Francis DP, Hairi NN, Othman S, Choo WY. (2016). Interventions for preventing abuse in the elderly. Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2016, CD010321 http://www.healthevidence.org/view-article.aspx?a=interventions-preventing-abuse-elderly-29428 Many older adults experience some form of abuse (psychological, physical, and sexual) that often goes unreported. Elder abuse is associated with morbidity and premature mortality. This review examines the effectiveness of interventions for preventing elder abuse in the home, institutions and community settings. Findings of the review suggest there is uncertainty in the effectiveness of educational interventions to improve knowledge of caregivers about elder abuse and uncertainty on its effect of reducing abuse. This webinar will examine the effectiveness and components of interventions that prevent elder abuse.
