In this commentary we critically appraised an existing economic evaluation of a transdiagnostic intervention for young people and, based on its findings, we formulated wider implications for practice. While the economic evaluation suitably defined the research question, perspective and time horizon of the analysis, key limitations emerge in relation to the lack of a control group which limits the precision of the cost-effectiveness estimates. Moreover, the design of the transdiagnostic intervention would need further refining as a mix of active and non-active treatments is considered, and their separate contributions to the overall cost-effectiveness could not be ascertained. Despite this, the involvement of staff in lower bands in the transdiagnostic intervention, such as Psychological Wellbeing Practitioners and senior nurses, could be seen favourably from a cost perspective and support its wider implementation.","PeriodicalId":521189,"journal":{"name":"Journal of family & child health","volume":"2 9","pages":"392-395"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7618598/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145919736","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Offering influenza vaccination within schools could reduce these barriers and promote higher vaccination rates. This commentary critically evaluates an economic evaluation comparing the cost-effectiveness of school-located influenza vaccination (SLIV) programs for elementary and secondary school students against the standard of care, i.e. vaccination in primary care settings. The economic evaluation suggested that SLIV could be cost-effective, particularly when considering indirect cost savings and spillover effects. However, the commentary highlights an insufficient explanation of the underlying mechanisms of spillover effects in improving cost-effectiveness, and a lack of discussion of similar programs aimed at boosting vaccination rates. Future research should investigate population preferences, examining why parents and children opt for SLIV or end up taking practice-based vaccination as a spillover effect of the SLIV program. The role played by heterogeneity, exploring factors such as gender, ethnicity, income, and other socioeconomic characteristics should also be investigated to better understand the program's impact on different population groups.","PeriodicalId":521189,"journal":{"name":"Journal of family & child health","volume":"2 6","pages":"256-260"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-06-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7618596/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145919734","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In England and Wales alone, a staggering 103,055 cases of CSA were recorded in the year ending 2022, marking a concerning 15% increase from figures reported in 2021. Studies indicate that approximately one in ten children under the age of 16 in the UK endure CSA, with girls experiencing it at a higher rate (1 in 6) than boys (1 in 20). The repercussions of CSA extend far beyond childhood, with victims more likely to grapple with mental health challenges in adulthood. Research suggests that about two-thirds of CSA victims experience mental or emotional issues as a result, underscoring the profound and lasting impact of such trauma. Specifically, there is a noted association between CSA and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and complex post-traumatic stress disorder (CPTSD), with repeated abuse heightening the likelihood of developing CPTSD. Boumpa et al. (2022) conducted a recent systematic review and meta-analysis aimed at further elucidating the correlation between CSA and lifetime psychiatric diagnoses, shedding light on this critical area of study. This commentary endeavours to conduct a critical appraisal of the methodologies employed in the review conducted by Boumpa et al. (2022) and to extend the discussion of the findings within the realm of social work practice.","PeriodicalId":521189,"journal":{"name":"Journal of family & child health","volume":"2 3","pages":"112-115"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7618595/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145919735","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
