However, previous studies have yielded inconsistent findings regarding the association between antibiotic exposure and the risk of various cancers, and the credibility of the available evidence remains uncertain.Methods: We conducted an umbrella review based on published meta-analyses and systematic reviews to evaluate the association between past or current antibiotic exposure and cancer risk. PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science were searched from inception to November 2025. Pooled effect sizes were obtained utilizing random-effects models. The credibility of evidence was evaluated utilizing the GRADE framework. All analyses were analyzed utilizing the R package \"metaumbrella\".Results: 10 articles encompassing 14 cancer types and 66 distinct associations were included. 9 associations were classified as highly suggestive evidence, 7 as suggestive evidence, and 21 as weak evidence. Among associations for which the evidence reached the highly suggestive level, antibiotic exposure was associated with increased risks of proximal colon cancer, pancreatic cancer, kidney cancer, and bladder cancer.Conclusions: Antibiotic exposure may be related to cancer risk in a cancer type-specific manner. These findings provide a higher-level evidence synthesis to inform future research directions and hypothesis generation in this field.","PeriodicalId":94107,"journal":{"name":"Journal of public health (Oxford, England)","volume":" ","pages":"661-669"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2026-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148341605","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}

Part of the reason for this is the difficulty of objectively assessing the limited and heterogeneous evidence base.The study aim was to develop a novel approach to testing the validity of systematic reviews and assessing the extent of the dominance of included primary studies.Methods: Leave-one-out meta-analysis was used to measure dominance. The systematic review on e-cigarettes as a smoking cessation tool by Hanewinkel et al. was used as a proof of concept.Results: The Hajek et al. study dominates the Hanewinkel et al. systematic review, exerting a disproportionate influence on the overall pooled effect.Conclusions: This research has identified a gap in current approaches to validity testing in systematic reviews. The Test for Dominance could supplement existing testing, including tests for heterogeneity, sensitivity analysis, and subgroup analysis. When a single study dominates a systematic review, the findings of that review should be interpreted with caution and further randomised controlled trials undertaken to reduce such distortion.","PeriodicalId":94107,"journal":{"name":"Journal of public health (Oxford, England)","volume":" ","pages":"739-744"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2026-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13531715/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148427392","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}

This scoping review aims to examine the experiences of detainees within UK IRCs, specifically how conditions within them, including the regime, affect their mental wellbeing.Methods: The Joanna Briggs Institute guideline for scoping reviews was followed. Six bibliographic databases and additional grey literature sources were searched for quantitative and qualitative evidence. Descriptive analyses and quality assessments were conducted.Results: Fifteen research studies and nine pieces of grey literature were included, comprising a total of 1353 participants and 11 IRCs. The majority of data was qualitative in methodology and published after 2015. Main findings from articles were charted according to Maslow's (1943) Hierarchy of Needs, revealing persistent failings across all dimensions (physiological, safety, belongingness, esteem, and self-actualization). The regime within the IRCs as well as the psychosocial environment led to emotional distress and feelings of disempowerment, dehumanization, and criminality.Conclusions: This review highlights the negative impact of IRCs within the UK on the mental wellbeing of detainees and the need for urgent policy reform.

The COVID-19 pandemic exposed limitations in existing monitoring approaches, particularly for assessing disruption and recovery across cancer pathways.Methods: A novel case throughput metric (CTM) was developed by extracting National Health Service (NHS) England CWT data spanning 2017-23, covering 334 trusts and an average of 300 000 patients annually. The metric defines service throughput as the ratio of patient volumes meeting waiting time standards during defined periods of investigation normalized to a pre-pandemic baseline, enabling meaningful comparison across trusts while accounting for variation in trust sizes and pre-existing differences in service provision.Results: The metric revealed substantial heterogeneity in both disruption and recovery across cancer pathways, with diagnostic and referral routes experiencing greater and more persistent throughput loss than treatment pathways. Recovery trajectories also varied markedly between regions, with exploratory analyses suggesting associations with sociodemographic factors.Conclusion: The CTM provides a policy-relevant complement to existing CWT indicators by making changes in service throughput explicit. It offers a practical tool for monitoring cancer system resilience and informing recovery planning during and beyond major system shocks.","PeriodicalId":94107,"journal":{"name":"Journal of public health (Oxford, England)","volume":" ","pages":"754-758"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2026-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13531708/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148229872","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}

There is international evidence of socioeconomic inequalities in PTB. Between 2012 and 2017, the proportion of live births occurring prematurely increased in England.

We used both fixed-effects and mixed-effects modelling to estimate the association between SDH and PTB rates between 2012 and 2017.Results: The gap in PTB inequalities widened over the study period, with the absolute difference in PTB rates between most and least disadvantaged communities rising by 35%. Mixed-effects analysis demonstrated an association between the proportion of children living in low-income households and PTB; for each percentage point increase in child poverty, an estimated additional 0.24 per 1000 births was preterm.Conclusion: We provide evidence of rising PTB rates in England prior to the pandemic, which disproportionately affected the poorest areas of the country.

However, Greater Manchester (GM) is the only region in England with fully devolved health powers. A key feature of the policies supporting devolution in GM was a proposed uplift in focus and funding for prevention of ill-health. This was deemed important for supporting people's health and wellbeing, and economic stability. This study explores the experiences of people working in public health during devolution in GM, and seeks to understand the constraints and opportunities of this novel approach.Methods: Forty two semi-structured interviews were conducted with people in public health roles in GM, examining how relational processes contributed to how prevention was perceived and enacted.Results: Prevention work was considered less of a priority than treatment-centred activities in GM, both in terms of planning and practice. Some plans for increased prevention were neglected, and lacking direction, which tended to lead to stagnation of genuinely innovative prevention-based plans.Conclusions: Continued marginalization of prevention could be explained through processes such as lifestyle drift and the enduring prestige attached to treatment work. Despite the intentions behind the policies, there were instances where devolution seemed to exacerbate these tendencies.","PeriodicalId":94107,"journal":{"name":"Journal of public health (Oxford, England)","volume":" ","pages":"806-817"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2026-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13531699/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148378927","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}
