Abstract:
This is the fourth annual report to the EMCDDA from the Norwegian Institute for Alcohol and Drug Research (SIRUS) on the drugs situation in Norway. The report has been drawn up in accordance with the new reporting guidelines introduced by the EMCDDA this year. We have endeavoured to follow these as consistently as possible, with the main focus on “new developments” and substantial changes in epidemiology, legislation and organisation. To allow readers to obtain more background information the report contains a number of references to the national report for 2003, and occasional references to the report for 2002.This resource was contributed by The National Documentation Centre on Drug Use.

A cross sectional survey of constipation prevalence and laxative use among older adults residing in a nursing home setting in Ireland.
(2014)
Neacy, Olivia
Abstract:
<p><strong>Background: </strong>Constipation is a common, distressing and troublesome condition and whilst it may affect any one of any age, it is said to be one of the most common complaints among the older person population. Indeed, prevalence rates within this population are high as 74%.In the older person population disturbed bowel function is often associated with depression, immobility and isolation. The costs of this condition are high, not only for the individual sufferer, but for society as a whole. Whilst laxatives are said to be the most frequently prescribed drugs in long term care settings, the costs of these treatments have not been systematically reported. From an Irish perspective, there appears to be a significant gap in the evidence based literature in relation to this condition.</p> <p><strong>Aim of Research: </strong>The aims of this research were to: determine the prevalence of constipation in an Irish nursing home popu...

Abstract:
Background: Insect venom is the second most common cause of anaphylaxis outside of medical encounters. Stings cause over 20% of all anaphylactic deaths and 7% of anaphylaxis in children. To date, there have been no longitudinal studies of insect sting events or allergy in preschool children. Methods: A prospective longitudinal nested observational study in the BASELINE Birth Cohort Study (n = 2137). Sting‐related questions were asked at 6 and 12 months and 2 and 5 years. Skin prick testing (SPT) was performed at 2 and 5 years. SpIgE testing was performed on selected cases at 2 years. Results: Seventy‐seven children (6.8%) were stung by the age of 2. Of these, 25 (32.5%) reported adverse reactions (four systemic). Eleven (0.9%) had positive SPT at 2 years (eight bee, two wasp, one both). Four stung children had positive SPT. Two (one stung, one never stung) had positive spIgE to a venom component at 2 years. A total of 268 children (21.9%) were stung by 5 years, 144 (52.1%) reporting...

A multilevel analysis of trimethoprim and ciprofloxacin prescribing and resistance of uropathogenic escherichia coli in general practice
(2018)
Vellinga, A.; Murphy, A. W.; Hanahoe, B.; Bennett, K.; Cormican, M.
Abstract:
Objectives: A retrospective analysis of databases was performed to describe trimethoprim and ciprofloxacin prescribing and resistance in Escherichia coli within general practices in the West of Ireland from 2004 to 2008. Methods: Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed by disc diffusion methods according to the CLSI methods and criteria on significant E. coli isolates (colony count &gt;10(5) cfu/mL) from urine samples submitted from general practice. Data were collected over a 4.5 year period and aggregated at practice level. Data on antimicrobial prescribing of practices were obtained from the national Irish prescribing database, which accounts for similar to 70% of all medicines prescribed in primary care. A multilevel model (MLwiN) was fitted with trimethoprim/ciprofloxacin resistance rates as outcome and practice prescribing as predictor. Practice and individual routinely collected variables were controlled for in the model. Results: Seventy-two general practi...

Abstract:
Journal article
Background: Depression is two to three times more common in people with diabetes than in the general population. Although multimorbid diabetes and depression is associated with poor health outcome, existing research has focused on patients' understanding and management of each condition in isolation. This study describes the development and validation of the Diabetes and Depression Representation and Management Questionnaire (DDRMQ), a measure of understanding, management and medication beliefs in people with diabetes and depression.Methods: In Study 1, DDRMQ items were developed through further analysis of an earlier qualitative study and refined through 18 cognitive interviews. In Study 2, 334 adults with diabetes and depression from general practices, diabetes clinics and support groups completed the DDRMQ demographic questions and validating measures.Results: Factor analysis of the DDRMQ using principal axis factoring resulted in a 35 item scale organise...

A review of Ireland's waterbirds, with emphasis on wintering migrants and reference to H5N1 avian influenza
(2014)
Crowe, O.; Wilson, J.; Aznar, Inma; et al.
Abstract:
Ireland is characterised by its diversity and large abundance of wetlands, making it attractive to a wide variety of waterbirds throughout the year. This paper presents an overview of Ireland's waterbirds, including ecological factors relevant to the potential introduction, maintenance, transmission and spread of infectious agents, including the H5N1 avian influenza virus, in Ireland. Particular emphasis is placed on five groups of wintering migrants (dabbling and sieving wildfowl, grazing wildfowl, diving wildfowl, waders and gulls), noting that the H5N1 avian influenza virus has mainly been isolated from this subset of waterbirds. Ireland's wetlands are visited during the spring and summer months by hundreds of thousands of waterbirds which come to breed, predominantly from southern latitudes, and during the autumn and winter by waterbirds which come from a variety of origins (predominantly northern latitudes), and which are widely distributed and often congregate in mix...

Abstract:
Background: The aim of this study was to establish current practices amongst general practitioners in the West of Ireland with regard to the investigation, diagnosis and management of urinary tract infection (UTI) in children and to evaluate these practices against recently published guidelines from the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE). Methods: A postal survey was performed using a questionnaire that included short clinical scenarios. All general practices in a single health region were sent a questionnaire, cover letter and SAE. Systematic postal and telephone contact was made with non-responders. The data was analysed using SPSS version 15. Results: Sixty-nine general practitioners were included in the study and 50 (72%) responded to the questionnaire. All respondents agreed that it is important to consider diagnosis of UTI in all children with unexplained fever. Doctors accurately identified relevant risk factors for UTI in the majority (87%) of cases...

A Taxonomy for Agent-Based Models in Human Infectious Disease Epidemiology
(2017)
Hunter, Elizabeth; Mac Namee, Brian; Kelleher, John
Abstract:
Agent-based simulation modelling has been used in many epidemiological studies on infectious diseases. However, because agent based modelling is a field without any clear protocol for developing simulations the researcher is given a high amount of flexibility. This flexibility has led to many different forms of agent-based epidemiological simulations. In this paper we review the existing literature on agent-based epidemiological simulation models. From our literature review we identify key similarities and differences in the exisiting simulations. We then use these similarities and differences to create a taxonomy of agent-based epidemiological models and show how the taxonomy can be used.

An all-island approach to mapping bovine tuberculosis in Ireland
(2014)
McGrath, Guy; Abernethy, D.; Stringer, L.; et al.
Abstract:
This study used techniques in Geographical Information Systems (GIS) to explore the spatial patterns of bovine tuberculosis (TB) in the whole island of Ireland over an 11-year period. This is the first time that data pertaining to TB from the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland have been collated and examined in an all-Ireland context. The analyses were based on 198, 156 point locations representing active farms with cattle in Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland between the years 1996 and 2006. The results consist of a series of maps giving a visual representation of cattle populations and associated detected bTB levels on the island of Ireland over this time interval.

Abstract:
Background Many of the causes of cancer are still not well understood. Although much is known about the effects of lifestyle and environmental factors, a considerable part of the cancer burden remains unexplained. Investigation of geographical differences in cancer incidence can throw light on both cancer aetiology and also on variations in cancer risk factors between populations. Spatial variation on a relatively fine scale may also yield information on the success of programmes of prevention, screening and early detection. The aim of this report was to describe variations in cancer risk (incidence) at electoral district (EO) level in Ireland. The objectives were to: investigate geographical variation in cancer incidence in Ireland; examine the relationships between area-based characteristics (such as population density) and cancer risk; attempt to explain these relationships through the examination of area-based measures of socio-economic status and aspects of lifestyle.

An evaluation of Irish cattle herds with inconclusive serological evidence of bovine brucellosis
(2014)
Hayes, Martin; Ashe, S.; Collins, Daniel M.; et al.
Abstract:
Since 1998, there has been a steady decline in herd restrictions and de-populations in Ireland due to bovine brucellosis. There is concern that the interpretation of laboratory results may become increasingly problematic, as brucellosis prevalence falls in Ireland. Therefore, the purpose of the current study was to evaluate the infection status of Irish herds and animals with inconclusive serological evidence of bovine brucellosis. During 12 months from September 1, 2004, laboratory and observational epidemiological data were collected from all Irish herds where animal testing identified at least one animal with a complement fixation test (CFT) reading greater than zero and/or a positive result to the indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (iELISA). Due to the observational nature of the study, we have robust estimates of the relative, but not the absolute, performance of the CFT, iELISA and brucellin skin test (BST). Herds were divided into three categories (Group A, B or C) on...

Abstract:
Tuberculosis (TB) is a preventable infectious disease which, if not controlled, has major public health implications. TB remains a leading infectious cause of death globally, with almost two million deaths per year. Currently, one-third of the world's population is infected with TB. In 1991,640 TB cases were notified in Ireland. The national trend in TB notifications was downward until 2003, when 407 TB cases were notified to the Health Protection Surveillance Centre. Data for Ireland for 2004 and 2005 show that TB notifications are increasing. Four hundred and sixty one TB cases were notified (crude rate11.81l 00,000 population) in 2005. The proportion of TB cases notified amongst non-Irish nationals has risen from 8.3% of notified cases in 1998 to almost one-third of notified cases in 2005. To date no case of extensively-drug resistant TB has been recorded in Ireland but cases of multi-drug resistant TB have been recorded on an almost annual basis since 1999.

An examination of the role of the sports and exercise medicine specialist in Ireland- from epidemiology to treatment
(2013)
Falvey, Éanna
Abstract:
The expansion of the specialty of sports and exercise medicine (SEM) is a relatively recent development in the medical community and the role of the SEM specialist continues to evolve and develop. The SEM specialist is ideally placed to care for all aspects of physical activity not only in athletes but also in the general population. As an advocate for physical activity the SEM specialist plays a broad role in advising safe effective sports and recreation participation; screening for disease related to sports participation; examining and contributing to the evidence behind treatment strategies and evaluating any potential negative impact of sports injury prevention measures. In this thesis I will demonstrate the breadth of the role the Sports and Exercise Medicine Specialist from epidemiology to in-depth examination of treatment strategies. In Chapter 2, I examined the epidemiology of sports and recreation related injury (SRI) in Ireland, an area that has previously been poorly stud...

ROONEY, JAMES; VAJDA, ALICE; HARDIMAN, ORLA
Abstract:
Abstract Introduction There has been much interest in spatial analysis of ALS to identify potential environmental or genetically caused clusters of disease. Results to date have been inconclusive. The Irish ALS register has been recently geocoded, presenting opportunity to perform a spatial analysis on national prospectively gathered data of incident cases over an 18-year period. Methods 1,645 cases of ALS in Ireland from January 1995 to July 2013 were identified from the Irish ALS register. 1,638 cases were successfully geocoded. Census data from four censuses: 1996, 2002, 2006 & 2011 were used to calculate an average population for the period and standardized incidence rates (SIRs) were calculated for 3,355 areas (Electoral Divisions). Bayesian conditional auto-regression was applied to produce smoothed relative risks (RR). These were then mapped for all cases, males & females separately, and those under 55 vs over 55 at diagnosis. Bayesian and linear regression were use...

Abstract:
A repetitive-extragenic palindromic PCR (rep-PCR) subtyping method (DiversiLab) in conjunction with ribotyping, toxinotyping and antimicrobial-susceptibility testing was used to detect subtypes within Clostridium difficile ribotypes 027 and 078. Clinical isolates of ribotypes 027 (toxinotype III) (n530) and 078 (toxinotype V) (n523) were provided by health-care facilities across the Republic of Ireland over 2 months in 2006 and 1 month in 2009. Ribotype 027 isolates were significantly more related to each other (9 different subtype profiles) when compared to ribotype 078 isolates (14 different profiles) (P50.001; cut-off .90 % similarity). Almost half of ribotype 078 isolates (45.5 %) showed no relationship to each other. The clonality of ribotype 027 isolates suggests effective adaptation to the human niche, whereas the considerable genetic diversity within ribotype 078 isolates suggests that they may have originated from a variety of sources. Subtyping correlated well with antimic...

Analysis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis as a multistep process: a population-based modelling study
(2014)
ROONEY, JAMES; HARDIMAN, ORLA
Abstract:
Background Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis shares characteristics with some cancers, such as onset being more common in later life, progression usually being rapid, the disease affecting a particular cell type, and showing complex inheritance. We used a model originally applied to cancer epidemiology to investigate the hypothesis that amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is a multistep process. Methods We generated incidence data by age and sex from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis population registers in Ireland (registration dates 1995?2012), the Netherlands (2006?12), Italy (1995?2004), Scotland (1989?98), and England (2002?09), and calculated age and sex-adjusted incidences for each register. We regressed the log of age-specific incidence against the log of age with least squares regression. We did the analyses within each register, and also did a combined analysis, adjusting for register. Findings We identified 6274 cases of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis from a catchment population of a...
