Abstract:

Background The most severe thunderstorm asthma (TA) event occurred in Melbourne on the 21st November 2016 and during this period, daily pollen information was available and accessible on smart devices via an App. An integrated survey within the App allows users to self-report symptoms. Objective To explore patterns of symptom survey results during the period when the TA event occurred. Methods Symptom data from the Melbourne Pollen Count and Forecast App related to asthma history, hay fever symptoms, and medication use was explored. A one-week control period before and after the event was considered. Chi-square tests and logistic regression were used to assess associations between sex, age, symptoms, and medication use. Results Of the 28,655 responses, during the 2016 pollen season, younger (18 to 40 years) males, with no hay fever and no asthma were the most single and regular responders. During the TA event for new users, sex was only significantly associated with hay fever ( p = 0.008) of which 60.2% of females’ responses reported having hay fever, while 43% of males’ responses did not. Those with mild symptoms peaked during the TA event. Conclusions Many individuals completed the survey on the app for the first time during the TA event indicating the potential of digital technologies to be used as indicators of health risk among populations at risk of TA events.

Abstract:

ObjectivesTo investigate mobile health product use in Australia and societal and clinician perceptions towards smartphone based visual acuity (VA) assessment tools.DesignQuantitative analysis of a cross-sectional survey delivered to the general public and thematic analysis of in-depth interviews of eye health clinicians.SettingOnline survey within Australia and face-to-face in-depth interviews of clinicians.Participants1016 adults were recruited via Survey Monkey Audience, social media (Facebook and Twitter), Rotary Australia and Lions Clubs Australia. Six clinicians were recruited from private and public settings in Melbourne, Australia.Primary and secondary outcome measuresThe study assessed socio-demographic characteristics, history of mobile health product use and perceived advantages and potential drawbacks of smartphone based VA assessment tools.ResultsA total of 14.4% of the study population had previously used a mobile-based health product. After adjusting for covariates, younger age (p=0.001), male gender (p=0.01) and higher income (>$45 000) were associated with increased likelihood of having used a mobile health product (p=0.005). Seventy-two per cent of participants would use an automated smartphone based VA assessment tool, provided that the accuracy was on par to that of human assessors. Convenience (37.3%) and cost-savings (15.5%) were ranked as the greatest perceived advantages. While test accuracy (50.6%), a lack of personal contact with healthcare providers (18.3%) and data security (11.9%) were the greatest concerns. Themes to emerge from clinician qualitative data included the potential benefits for identifying refractive error in patients, as well as the ability to self-monitor vision. Concerns were raised over the potential misuse of self-testing vision apps and the inability to detect pathology.ConclusionOur findings suggest that a substantial proportion of the Australian population do not use mobile health products. Furthermore, there remains notable concerns, including test accuracy and data privacy, with smartphone-based VA assessment tools by both clinicians and the public.

Abstract:

ABSTRACTBackground: This paper describes the evaluation of the Memory Lane Café service in Victoria, Australia. The Alzheimer's Australia Vic Memory Lane Café model aims to provide a social and educational service to people living with dementia and their carers, family members or friends. Dementia is a serious health issue in Australia, with prevalence estimated at 6.5% of people over 65 years of age. Living with dementia has significant social and psychological ramifications, often negatively affecting quality of life. Social support groups can improve quality of life for people living with dementia.Methods: The evaluation included focus groups and surveys of people with dementia and their carers, staff consultation, service provider interviews, and researcher observation. The Melbourne Health Mental Health Human Research Ethics Committee approved the project. Participants included people with dementia (aged 60 to 93 years, previously enrolled in the Alzheimer's Australia Vic's six-week Living With Memory Loss Program), their carers, friends and/or family members, staff working in the Cafés, and service providers with links to the Cafés.Results: This evaluation found that Memory Lane Cafés promote social inclusion, prevent isolation, and improve the social and emotional well-being of attendees. However, Cafés did not meet the needs of all potential attendees.Conclusions: The evaluation recommended that existing Café services be continued and possibilities for extending the Cafés be explored. Based on evaluation outcomes, the Department of Health Victoria is funding four additional pilot programs in café style support services.

Abstract:

This article responds to the question ‘Whither Victorian Studies?’ by suggesting four profitable areas and modes for further research: (i) reception history; (ii) transnational studies; (iii) education studies; and (iv) poetry studies. By way of an exemplum, the essay then conducts a wide-ranging investigation of W. E. Henley's ‘Invictus’ (1888) and Rudyard Kipling's ‘If –’ (1910), prime instances of poems that have been widely memorised and awarded the status of national favourites in the United States and Great Britain. Employing both traditional close-reading strategies and historical analyses of the circumstances of their composition, publication, and reception, the essay argues that such a study yields at least two important benefits. In the first place, it throws light upon the nationally distinct after-effects of one of the Victorian period's most remarkable literary formations, the cultures of mass poetry recitation that were formally consolidated in the last quarter of the nineteenth century within British and American public education. In the second, it focuses attention upon the poems’ relation to national difference itself, gesturing towards the divergent attitudes to the nation's educational history, to the operation of class, and to the ideology of individualism that prevail within Great Britain and the United States.

Abstract:

Abstract In September 2018, the Federal Court of Australia found that a Victorian woman did not need her estranged husband’s consent to undergo in vitro fertilisation treatment (IVF) using donor sperm. The woman, who was 45 years of age, made an urgent application to the Court for permission to undergo IVF using donor sperm. In a single judge ruling, Griffiths J held that the requirement in the Assisted Reproductive Treatment Act 2008 (Vic) (‘ART Act’) for a married woman to obtain the consent of her husband discriminated against the woman in question on the basis of her marital status in contravention of the Commonwealth Sex Discrimination Act 1984 (Cth) (‘SD Act’). His Honour declared the Victorian law in this instance ‘invalid and inoperable’ by operation of section 109 of the Commonwealth Constitution to the extent it was inconsistent with the Commonwealth law. Although the declarations by the Federal Court were limited in their terms to the circumstances of the case, the judgment raises broader issues about equity of access to assisted reproductive treatment (ART) in Victoria. The issue of partner consent as a barrier to access to ART was specifically raised by an independent review of the ART Act in Victoria. The Victorian Government released an interim report late last year as a first stage of the review, which canvasses some options for reform. This raises a broader question as to whether prescriptive legislation imposing detailed access requirements for ART is necessary or even helpful.

Abstract:

Objective: To share our experience of post-circumferential Volkmann’s IschemicContracture (VIC) of the forearm seen in our setup. Design: A descriptive case series study.Setting: National Orthopedic Hospital, Bahawalpur, Pakistan. Period: January 2005 toDecember 2013. Methodology: A total of 42 patients were registered during the study period.Patients with VIC of the forearm resulting from direct circumferential compression were includedin the study. Patients who developed VIC of forearm indirectly secondary to arm pathology orother causes were excluded from the study. Assessment was made by detailed history, clinicalexamination and radiographs of the involved extremity. The age, sex, duration, side and type ofcontracture, length and width of forearm and resulting deformities were all documented on adetailed proforma. Patients were categorized into three types accordingly. Results: Forty twopatients comprising 29 males and 13 females were seen. Their ages ranged from 1 to 53 yearswith mean age of 14.47 years. Duration of established VIC of the forearm after insult ranged from 3months to 6 years with mean duration of 2 ½ years. Most frequent type of contracture wasmoderate variety seen in 19 patients (45.23%) with 14 cases on the right and 5 cases on left sidefollowed by severe varieties which were present in 13 patients (31%) with 10 cases on the rightand 3 cases on left side. Mild contractures were found in 10 patients (23.9%) with 6 cases on theright and 4 cases on left side. In 26 of 42 patients, a difference in forearm length that ranged from79% to 94% (mean, 80%) was observed. Majority of cases (37 cases) of VIC occurred after TBS forradius and ulna fractures while in the remaining 5 cases, contractures of forearm occurred due totight plaster of paris (POP) splint. Conclusions: Post-circumferential forearm contractures afterTraditional Bone Setters (TBS) are common in our society. Community awareness through healtheducation and conducting medical camps and seminars might play a role in decreasing theinfluence of TBS.

Full text

Abstract:

Acrobates pygmaeus was captured in nestboxes in three areas of central and southern Victoria: the Gembrook-Cockatoo area and Nar Nar Goon North east of Melbourne, and Daylesford north-west of Melbourne. Breeding was strictly seasonal and females produced two litters between July and February each year. Males also showed seasonal fluctuation in testes sizes. Mean litter size was 3.5 at birth and 2.5 at weaning. Pouch life lasted 65 days and young were weaned at approximately 100 days of age. Growth was slow and maternal investment in each young was high, and continued after weaning. Most individuals matured in the season following their birth, but some males did not mature until the second season after their birth. Maximum field longevity was at least three years. Comparisons are made with other small diprotodont marsupials.

Abstract:

Comparison of asthma prevalence between populations is difficult because of lack of uniformity of methodology and agreement on the definition. This study aims to determine and compare the prevalence of wheeze and respiratory symptoms in Hong Kong schoolchildren with that in Melbourne children by using identical questionnaires. Schools were randomly selected in different regions of Hong Kong and three age groups (7, 12 and 15 yrs) were chosen for the study. The Chinese version of the questionnaire used in a recent Melbourne survey was distributed to children for completion by their parents. A total of 1,800 questionnaires was issued and 1,689 returned (response rate = 94%). The prevalence of wheeze in the past 12 months was 7 (5.1-8.0), 5 (3.0-6.7) and 4 (1.7-5.6) % for 7, 12 and 15 year olds, respectively. The prevalence of a history of asthma in the respective age groups was 10 (7.1-12.9), 8 (7.5-9.2) and 7 (5.0-9.6) %, respectively. Whilst a history of wheeze ever was more common in boys than in girls and 12 yr olds (14% vs 5%), wheeze in the past 12 months was more common in boys than in girls aged 7 yrs (9 vs 4%). We conclude that the prevalence of wheeze and asthma in school children was low in Hong Kong compared to Melbourne. Environmental differences between the two regions may be important in the pathogenesis.

Abstract:

The New Man was a crucial topic of discussion and a continual preoccupation in late-Victorian feminist writing, precisely because he was more often a wished-for presence than an actual one. Nevertheless, creators of neo-Victorian fiction and film repeatedly project him backwards onto the screen of literary history, representing him as having in fact existed in the Victorian age as a complement to the New Woman. What is at stake in retrospectively situating the New Man – or, as I will call him, the ‘Neo-Man’ – in the nineteenth century, through historical fiction? If one impulse behind fictional returns to the Victorian period is nostalgia, then what explains this nostalgia for The Man Who Never Was? This essay will suggest that neo-Victorian works have a didactic interest in transforming present-day readers, especially men, through depictions of the Neo-Man, which broaden the audience's feminist sympathies, queer its notions of gender relations, and alter its definition of masculinity.

Abstract:

Recruitment can be an issue for paediatric research. We aimed to investigate parental opinions of paediatric clinical assessments, and to combine findings with recent literature to inform the design of a clinical dietary trial. We used convenience sampling to recruit 17 parents of children aged 2–6 years from two community playgroups in Perth, Western Australia. Three focus groups considered proposed child assessments, study design, and potential study enrolment. Qualitative thematic analysis of focus group transcripts used NVivo 11 (QSR, Melbourne, VIC, Australia). Four main parental concerns emerged, presented here with solutions combining parent responses and relevant literature. (1) Parent and child needle fear: a good experience and a good phlebotomist help keep participants calm, and offering additional analysis (e.g., iron status) makes blood tests more worthwhile. (2) Concerns about children’s age, stage, understanding and ability to cope: create a themed adventure to help explain concepts and make procedures fun. (3) Persistent misunderstandings involving study purpose, design, randomization and equipoise: provide clear information via multiple platforms, and check understanding before enrolment. (4) Parental decisions to enrol children focused on time commitment, respectful treatment of their child, confronting tests and altruism: child-centred methodologies can help address concerns and keep participants engaged throughout procedures. Addressing the concerns identified could improve participation in a range of paediatric health interventions.
