  • Impact of the Canterbury earthquakes on dispensing of psychiatric medication for children and adolescents: longitudinal quantitative study.
    The British journal of psychiatry : the journal of mental science, 2020
    Co-Authors: Ben Beaglehole, Stephanie Moor, Tao Zhang, Gregory J. Hamilton, Roger T. Mulder, Joseph M. Boden, Chris Frampton, Caroline Bell
    Abstract:

    Background Natural disasters are increasing in frequency and impact; they cause widespread disruption and adversity throughout the world. The Canterbury earthquakes of 2010–2011 were devastating for the people of Christchurch, New Zealand. It is important to understand the impact of this disaster on the mental health of children and adolescents. Aims To report psychiatric medication use for children and adolescents following the Canterbury earthquakes. Method Dispensing data from community pharmacies for the medication classes antidepressants, antipsychotics, anxiolytics, sedatives/hypnotics and methylphenidate are routinely recorded in a national database. Longitudinal data are available for residents of the Canterbury District Health Board (DHB) and nationally. We compared dispensing data for children and adolescents residing in Canterbury DHB with national dispensing data to assess the impact of the Canterbury earthquakes on psychotropic prescribing for children and adolescents. Results After longer-term trends and population adjustments are considered, a subtle adverse effect of the Canterbury earthquakes on dispensing of antidepressants was detected. However, the Canterbury earthquakes were not associated with higher dispensing rates for antipsychotics, anxiolytics, sedatives/hypnotics or methylphenidate. Conclusions Mental disorders or psychological distress of a sufficient severity to result in treatment of children and adolescents with psychiatric medication were not substantially affected by the Canterbury earthquakes.

  • The impact of the Canterbury earthquakes on dispensing for older person's mental health.
    International journal of geriatric psychiatry, 2019
    Co-Authors: Ben Beaglehole, Tao Zhang, Roger T. Mulder, Joseph M. Boden, Caroline Bell, Greg Hamilton, Christopher Bloomer, Chris Frampton
    Abstract:

    Objective To evaluate the impact of the Canterbury earthquakes on the mental health of older people by examining dispensing patterns of psychotropic medication. Method Dispensing data from community pharmacies for antidepressants, antipsychotics, anxiolytics, and sedative/hypnotics are routinely recorded in a national database. Longitudinal data are available for residents of the Canterbury District Health Board (DHB) (n = 67 760 at study onset) and the rest of New Zealand (n = 469 055 at study onset). We compared older age dispensing data between 2008 and 2018 for Canterbury DHB with older age dispensing data nationally in order to assess the impact of the Canterbury earthquakes on the mental health of older persons. Results Older age residents of Canterbury are dispensed antidepressants, antipsychotics, and anxiolytics at higher rates than national comparators, but this finding predated the onset of the earthquakes. Short-term increases in anxiolytic and sedative/hypnotic dispensing occurred for the month following the February 2011 earthquake. No other short- or longer-term increases in dispensing of psychiatric medication were present. Conclusion The February 2011 Canterbury earthquake caused a short-term increase in dispensing of anxiolytics and sedative/hypnotics. No longer-term effects on dispensing were observed. This suggests that older persons sought assistance for insomnia and anxiety in the aftermath of the most devastating earthquake, but longer-term rates of clinically significant anxiety and depression for older persons did not increase as a consequence of the earthquakes sequence.

  • the Canterbury charity hospital an update 2010 2012 and effects of the earthquakes
    The New Zealand Medical Journal, 2013
    Co-Authors: Philip F Bagshaw, Chris Frampton, Gary M Nicholls, Miriam Maimbomsiska, Carl Shaw, Randall A Allardyce, Sue Bagshaw, Angela L Mcnabb, Stuart S Johnson, Brian W Stokes
    Abstract:

    Aim To update activities of the Canterbury Charity Hospital (CCH) and its Trust over the 3 years 2010–2012, during which the devastating Christchurch earthquakes occurred. Methods Patients’ treatments, establishment of new services, expansion of the CCH, staffing and finances were reviewed. Results Previously established services including general surgery continued as before, some services such as ophthalmology declined, and new services were established including colonoscopy, dentistry and some gynaecological procedures; counselling was provided following the earthquakes. Teaching and research endeavours increased. An adjacent property was purchased and renovated to accommodate the expansion. The Trust became financially self-sustaining in 2010; annual running costs of $340,000/year were maintained but were anticipated to increase soon. Of the money generously donated by the community to the Trust, 82% went directly to patient care. Although not formally recorded, hundreds of appointment request were rejected because of service unavailability or unmet referral criteria. Conclusions This 3-year review highlights substantial, undocumented unmet healthcare needs in the region, which were exacerbated by the 2010/2011 earthquakes. We contend that the level of unmet healthcare in Canterbury and throughout the country should be regularly documented to inform planning of public healthcare services. Charity hospitals have developed in many countries to address unmet healthcare needs. The Canterbury Charity Hospital Trust (CCHT) was established in Christchurch in 2004 to facilitate the provision of free elective health care to patients with selected disorders in the Canterbury District Health Board (CDHB) region who were otherwise unable to access treatment. The initial report described the establishment of the CCHT, the development, staffing, financing and running of the Canterbury Charity Hospital (CCH), and provided details

  • high incidence of crohn s disease in Canterbury new zealand results of an epidemiologic study
    Inflammatory Bowel Diseases, 2006
    Co-Authors: Richard B Gearry, Chris Frampton, Ann Richardson, Judith A Collett, M J Burt, B A Chapman, Murray L Barclay
    Abstract:

    Background: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has increased exponentially in industrialized nations over the last 50 years. Previous New Zealand studies have shown that IBD is less common than in other countries; however, clinical observations suggested a high incidence and prevalence of IBD in Canterbury, particularly Crohn's disease (CD). Aim: This study aimed to determine the descriptive epidemiology of IBD in Canterbury. Methods: Canterbury IBD patients, recruited using multiple strategies, gave informed consent, permission for clinical record review, completed a questionnaire, and were bled for DNA extraction as part of the Canterbury IBD Project. Cases were confirmed using standard criteria, and completeness of recruitment was validated using capture-recapture methods. Demographic and phenotypic data were extracted from case notes. One thousand four hundred twenty patients (715 CD, 668 ulcerative colitis [UC]) were recruited (>91% of Canterbury IBD patients). Results: In 2004, age-standardized (World Health Organization World Standard Population) IBD, CD, and UC incidence rates were 25.2, 16.5, and 7.6/100,000/year, respectively. The IBD, CD, and UC point prevalences on 1 June, 2005 were 308.3, 155.2, and 145.0/100,000, respectively. CD patients were more likely than UC patients to be female (61.4% vs. 47.1%) and to be younger (median age, 39.9 years vs. 43.7 years). The percent of IBD patients who were white was 97.5%. Conclusion: IBD is at least as common in Canterbury as in other western regions. CD incidence and prevalence are amongst the highest ever reported and are higher than for UC. IBD population characteristics are otherwise similar to other countries. The Canterbury IBD Project will be a valuable tool for future population-based IBD epidemiology and genetics research.

  • The phylogeny of The Canterbury Tales
    Nature, 1998
    Co-Authors: Adrian C. Barbrook, Christopher J. Howe, N. F. Blake, Peter Robinson
    Abstract:

    Geoffrey Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales survives in about 80 different manuscript versions1. We have used the techniques of evolutionary biology to produce what is, in effect, a phylogenetic tree showing the relationships between 58 extant fifteenth-century manuscripts of “The Wife of Bath's Prologue” from The Canterbury Tales. We found that many of the manuscripts fall into separate groups sharing distinct ancestors.

  • Seismic performance of Reinforced Concrete Frame with Masonry Infill buildings in the 2010/2011 Canterbury, New Zealand earthquakes
    Bulletin of Earthquake Engineering, 2019
    Co-Authors: Rijalul Fikri, Dmytro Dizhur, Kevin Walsh, Jason Ingham
    Abstract:

    As a result of the 2010/2011 Canterbury, New Zealand earthquakes, Reinforced Concrete Frame with Masonry Infill (RCFMI) buildings experienced a level of damage that was different to that observed for other construction systems. An extensive survey was conducted by the Christchurch City Council and the Canterbury Earthquake Recovery Authority following the earthquakes to document damaged buildings in the affected area. The collected data were then merged into the Canterbury Earthquake Building Assessment (CEBA) database, and the database was utilised to assess the damage sustained by RCFMI buildings. In order to provide a reliable estimation of the seismic vulnerability for RCFMI buildings in the region, empirical fragility curves were generated using the Lognormal Cumulative Distribution method by utilising the post-earthquake dataset provided in the CEBA database, with the expected median and standard deviation values derived using the Maximum Likelihood Estimation method. Results showed that the majority of low-rise to mid-rise RCFMI buildings performed satisfactorily during the Canterbury earthquakes, with several high-rise RCFMI buildings sustaining moderate to heavy damage.

  • Landscape, Monumentality and Expression of Group identities in Iron Age and Roman east Kent
    'Cambridge University Press (CUP)', 2019
    Co-Authors: Mullen Alex, Wallace Lacey
    Abstract:

    The Canterbury Hinterland Project (CHP) has combined aerial photographic and LiDAR analysis, synthesis of HER and other data across east Kent with targeted survey south and east of Canterbury. We present possible hillforts, temples, large enclosures, a major trackway, linking paths, burials, and high-status Roman-period complexes and argue that people organized the landscape to communicate meaning in two main ways: a ‘public’ face oriented towards the Dover–Canterbury road and expressions of ritual and remembrance for local groups. The character of this rural population has traditionally been understood in terms of its relationship to the civitas capital and villas, we look beyond this to examine a more detailed vision of possible social interactions

  • Landscape, Monumentality, and Expression of Group identities in Iron Age and Roman east Kent
    'Cambridge University Press (CUP)', 2019
    Co-Authors: Wallace Lacey, Mullen Alex
    Abstract:

    The social organization of Iron Age and Roman east Kent has been subjected to generalizing commentary from Caesar to the present. One factor preventing detailed analysis is the relative lack of archaeological investigations, particularly in the hinterland of Canterbury. The first phase of the Canterbury Hinterland Project has undertaken aerial photographic and LiDAR analysis across east Kent and multiple-technique geophysical surveys and analysis of previous investigations at five rural sites and most extensively at Bourne Park, where limited excavation was also undertaken. This work has uncovered possible hillforts, ‘Romano-Celtic’ temples, large enclosures, a major trackway, linking paths, burials, and high-status Roman-period complexes. We present key findings here and explore how natural and man-made features are connected across the landscape. We argue that humans have made the landscape communicate meaning in two main ways: a ‘public’ face of power oriented towards the Dover to Canterbury road route and a more local or rural expression of ritual and remembrance for the local groups. The population of the hinterland of Canterbury has tended to be viewed simply in terms of its relationship to the civitas capital and villas. The most complete view of the archaeological record of this area to date, and one that does not continue the traditional focus on villas to the exclusion of other evidence, allows a much more detailed reconstruction of possible social identities and interactions
