A third (32 %) lived in a house in which smoking was permitted, and 44 % lived with other smokers. The majority of participants believed that significant others (68–82 %) and health care providers (80–91 %) would be supportive of their quitting smoking. Reflecting previous research, the smoking characteristics examined were variously associated with quitting behaviour and motivation. Additionally, participants not living with other smokers were more likely to have quit for a longer duration (OR 2.02), and those perceiving their psychiatrist to be supportive of a quit attempt were more likely to have had more quit attempts in the past six months (OR 2.83). Conclusions: Modifiable characteristics of the physical and social environment, and of smoking, should be considered in smoking cessation interventions for persons with a mental illness.]]> Wed 11 Apr 2018 09:31:29 AEST ]]> Comparative efficacy of simultaneous versus sequential multiple health behavior change interventions among adults: a systematic review of randomised trials https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:25455 Wed 11 Apr 2018 09:30:46 AEST ]]> The provision of preventive care for modifiable health risk behaviours by clinicians within substance use treatment settings: a systematic review https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:36387 Wed 07 Apr 2021 20:17:14 AEST ]]> Systematic review of universal resilience-focused interventions targeting child and adolescent mental health in the school setting https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:34072 12 months), and gender (narrative). Results A total of 57 included trials were identified from 5,984 records, with 49 contributing to meta-analyses. For all trials, resilience-focused interventions were effective relative to a control in reducing 4 of 7 outcomes: depressive symptoms, internalizing problems, externalizing problems, and general psychological distress. For child trials (meta-analyses for 6 outcomes), interventions were effective for anxiety symptoms and general psychological distress. For adolescent trials (meta-analyses for 5 outcomes), interventions were effective for internalizing problems. For short-term follow-up, interventions were effective for 2 of 7 outcomes: depressive symptoms and anxiety symptoms. For long-term follow-up (meta-analyses for 5 outcomes), interventions were effective for internalizing problems. Conclusion The findings may suggest most promise for using universal resilience-focused interventions at least for short-term reductions in depressive and anxiety symptoms for children and adolescents, particularly if a cognitive-behavioral therapy-based approach is used. The limited number of trials providing data amenable for meta-analysis for some outcomes and subgroups, the variability of interventions, study quality, and bias mean that it is not possible to draw more specific conclusions. Identifying what intervention qualities (such as number and type of protective factor) achieve the greatest positive effect per mental health problem outcome remains an important area for future research.

Clinicians indicated their agreement with 10 attitudinal statements regarding their perceived role and self-efficacy in providing preventive care and perceptions of client interest in modifying behaviours. Logistic regression analyses examined the association between clinician attitudinal items and self-reported care provision. Results: Fifty-four clinicians (74%) agreed to participate. The most positive attitudes were preventive care being part of their role (100%), and they have the knowledge and skills to provide preventive care (100%). The least favourable attitude was clients were interested in changing their health risk behaviours (60%). Clinicians who reported that preventive care left little time to undertake acute care were more likely to assess for smoking (OR 8.06 [95% CI 1.31, 49.46]) and less likely to provide brief advice for all risks combined (OR 0.11 [95% CI 0.02, 0.63]). Discussion and Conclusions: Overall, clinicians reported positive attitudes regarding the preventive care provision for modifiable health risk behaviours in substance use treatment settings. Further research is required to investigate why, despite such positive attitudes, clinicians in substance use treatment settings do not routinely provide preventive care.]]> Fri 25 Nov 2022 15:06:10 AEDT ]]> The health and wellbeing of Australian social housing tenants compared to people living in other types of housing. https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:54956 Fri 22 Mar 2024 15:28:41 AEDT ]]> The new challenge for improving psychosocial cancer care: shifting to a system-based approach https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:36881 Fri 21 Oct 2022 14:53:12 AEDT ]]> Effectiveness of interventions to increase participation in advance care planning for people with a diagnosis of dementia: A systematic review https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:36850 Fri 17 Jul 2020 09:45:21 AEST ]]> Reducing alcohol-related harm in Australia: a simple data-based tool to assist prioritization of research and health care delivery in primary care https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:36924 Fri 17 Jul 2020 08:44:43 AEST ]]> Barriers to the evaluation of evidence-based public health policy https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:36925 Fri 17 Jul 2020 08:44:42 AEST ]]> How can dementia diagnosis and care for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people be improved?

Primary outcomes assessed at 6 and 12 months post-discharge were 7-day point prevalence and 1-month prolonged smoking abstinence. A number of secondary smoking-related outcomes were also assessed. Subgroup analyses were conducted based on psychiatric diagnosis, baseline readiness to quit and nicotine dependence. Results: Seven-day point prevalence abstinence was higher for intervention participants (15.8%) than controls (9.3%) at 6 months post-discharge (odds ratio = 1.07, p = 0.04), but not at 12 months (13.4% and 10.0%, respectively; odds ratio = 1.03, p = 0.25). Significant intervention effects were not found on measures of prolonged abstinence at either 6 or 12 months post-discharge. Differential intervention effects for the primary outcomes were not detected for any subgroups. At both 6 and 12 months post-discharge, intervention group participants were significantly more likely to smoke fewer cigarettes per day, have reduced cigarette consumption by 3/450% and to have made at least one quit attempt, relative to controls. Conclusions: Universal smoking cessation treatment initiated in inpatient psychiatry and continued post-discharge was efficacious in increasing 7-day point prevalence smoking cessation rates and related quitting behaviours at 6 months post-discharge, with sustained effects on quitting behaviour at 12 months.
