We evaluated the vaccine effectiveness (VE) of COVID-19 vaccines using the Cox proportional-hazards model, adjusting for covariates.Results: The VE against COVID-19 hospitalisation (VEH) for the second booster dose compared to no vaccination was found to be 81.8% (95% confidence interval [95% CI]: 73.6-87.5) after 1 month post-vaccination. After 4 months, VEH was 72.2% (95% CI: 58.5-81.4), and after 6 months VEH was 49.0% (95% CI: 7.9-71.8). Similarly, VEH decreased after the first booster dose (1-month VEH=81.6% [95% CI: 75.6-86.1]; 2 months VEH=74.7% [95% CI: 68.2-79.9]; and 6 months VEH=57.4% [95% CI: 45.8-66.6]). VE against COVID-19 death (VED) was 92.9% (95% CI: 82.1-97.2) 2 months after the first booster vaccination, with VED being sustained until months 5 and 6 (VED=87.2%; 95% CI: 67.4-94.9). The VE after the second dose of the vaccine against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection (VEI) (real-time polymerase chain reaction [RT-PCR]) was sustained at 5 months post-vaccination (40.6%; 95% CI: 25.6-52.5).Conclusion: We provide a comprehensive quantification of both VE and VE waning. These findings can guide policymakers to help evaluate the COVID-19 vaccination programme and minimise the effect of future COVID-19 in Aotearoa New Zealand.","PeriodicalId":48086,"journal":{"name":"NEW ZEALAND MEDICAL JOURNAL","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2024-09-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142141453","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Compared with matched non-participants, matched participants were 1.6 times more likely to be in employment at 12 months. Over 3 years, matched IPS participants had more earnings, more time in employment, greater total income and were more likely to gain qualifications. They also had more face-to-face contacts with mental health teams, mental health-related inpatient stays and mental health service crisis contacts than matched non-participants. Effects for Māori were similar in direction and scale to the overall results.Conclusion: Our results show that people with mental health conditions or problematic substance use who receive employment support made available together with mental health and addiction treatment have more employment, gains in qualifications and more independent income when compared to similar people who do not receive this support. More research is needed to understand differences in engagement with mental health services and effects on participants' health and wellbeing.","PeriodicalId":48086,"journal":{"name":"NEW ZEALAND MEDICAL JOURNAL","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2024-09-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142141460","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objective of this study was to assess the feasibility, efficacy and safety of learning ESD in an untutored approach in a prevalence-based setting within New Zealand.Methods: Over a 4-year period, 80 ESD procedures were performed at a single tertiary centre within New Zealand. We retrospectively reviewed basic demographics of the patients, along with successful en bloc resection rates, dissection speeds, histological diagnoses (including margin assessments) and complications.Results: We captured 80 procedures. Within this database we achieved an en bloc resection of 88.7% (71 out of 80 cases) and an R0 resection of 72.5% (58 out of 80 cases). The international benchmark for dissection speed of 9cm2/h was achieved within the first block of 20 cases and was maintained throughout. There was a perforation rate of 6.25% (five patients), with one patient (1.25%) requiring emergency surgery for a rectal perforation.Conclusions: Our study shows it is feasible and safe to learn ESD within a low-volume tertiary centre within New Zealand via a prevalence-based approached. The majority of patients were able to have en bloc resection and a R0 resection. Our intent is that this data be used to help design a more formalised training process for learning ESD within a New Zealand setting.","PeriodicalId":48086,"journal":{"name":"NEW ZEALAND MEDICAL JOURNAL","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2024-09-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142141461","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We sought to characterise a unique population, the individuals who attempt to engage one or multiple times with screening yet fail to ever obtain successful screening.Methods: This is a cross-sectional descriptive analysis on data from the New Zealand National Bowel Screening Programme 2012 to 2022.Results: Over 7,000 individuals (1.26% of all participants) have attempted but failed to be successfully screened in the national bowel screening programme. Males compared with females (OR 1.11, 95% CI 1.06-1.17), Asian (OR 1.65, 95% CI 1.55-1.77), Māori (OR 2.07, 95% CI 1.92-2.24) or Pacific peoples (OR 2.30, 95% CI 2.09-2.52) compared with Europeans had greater odds to attempt but fail to be screened.
