Multimorbidity in a large district hospital: A descriptive cross-sectional study.
CONCLUSIONS: Chronic conditions, particularly HIV, TB and non-communicable diseases, represented much of the disease profile in the internal medicine department. Of the comorbidities investigated, the greatest contributor to length of stay was HIV/TB co-infection. Factors such as HIV, TB and substance use that increase length of stay cannot be impacted upon by the district hospital staff in isolation. To improve the health of communities, we require partnerships between doctors, community health providers and patients with their families. Multimorbidity was widespread, suggesting the need to include an understanding of mul...

Lessons learned from two decades of research in nutrition education and obesity prevention: Considerations for alcohol education
Health education was until late in the 20th century almost universally a one-sided communication from experts to the lay public. In the case of both nutrition and alcohol education, it was ineffective. Gradually, enlightened educators recognized that to be more effective behavioral interventions require interaction between experts and the populations they are trying to serve.

Conclusion: Three programmes included in the review had sufficient positive outcomes to be recommended for implementation, and four showed good outcomes in some areas. Schools should consider these results when deciding on introducing alcohol education. Overall, the evidence base is broad but relatively weak and further research is required, focusing on programmes identified as having good or potentially good outcomes.
