The humanitarian nature of the quota composition consists of those who are determined by the United Nations refugee agency to be in high need of immediate protection, a large proportion of medical and disability cases, and women and children at risk. Quota refugees arrive in six intakes each year and participate in assessment and orientation for the first 6 weeks at the national Mangere Refugee Resettlement Centre. This paper describes the findings of screening for refugees with a history of torture during 2007–2008. There were 144 arriving refugees or 19.2% of the total found to have histories of torture during this period. The implications for future research, and follow-up care of people who have survived torture are discussed. The use of the ‘rollie’ in New Zealand: preference for loose tobacco among an ethnically diverse low socioeconomic urban population Vili Nosa, Marewa Glover, Sandar Min, Robert Scragg, Chris Bullen, Judith McCool, Anette Kira Smoking parents of students from four South Auckland Intermediate Schools were asked if they smoke roll-your-own (RYO) cigarettes and why. Nearly half smoked only factory-made cigarettes. 38% smoked only RYO cigarettes. The most common reasons for smoking RYOs instead of factory-mades was the perceived lower cost of RYOs and that RYOs lasted longer (42%). Increasing the tax on RYOs to make sure they cost the same as factory-made cigarettes should lessen the potential use of RYOs as an alternative to quitting. A cross-sectional study of opinions related to the tobacco industry and their association with smoking status amongst 14–15 year old teenagers in New Zealand Judith McCool, Janine Paynter, Robert Scragg We surveyed 31,459 Year 10 students’ attitudes towards the tobacco industry in New Zealand to determine if there was an association with smoking behaviour or susceptibility to smoking. We found that students who expressed tolerant attitudes towards the tobacco industry had a higher risk of being smoker or starting to smoke. Given the results of this survey there is clearly a need to reach teenagers at risk of taking up smoking and continuing to smoke with an effective counter-industry campaign. NZMJ 8 July 2011, Vol 124 No 1338; ISSN 1175 8716 Page 4 of 144 URL: http://www.nzma.org.nz/journal/124-1338/4769/ ©NZMA Comparison of two modes of delivery of an exercise prescription scheme Louise Foley, Ralph Maddison, Zanta Jones, Paul Brown, Anne Davys Green Prescription (GRx) is a referral from a health professional for a patient to become more physically active. In Auckland, GRx is delivered either on the telephone or face-to-face. A comparison of the two modes of delivery (telephone vs. face-to- face) was conducted. This evaluation involved staff interviews, patient interviews and analysis of GRx records for the 2007 calendar year. Results indicated that the modes of delivery were similar in terms of costs as well as outcomes. However, the face-to- face mode of delivery was more popular with Maori and Pacific peoples. Providing a choice of GRx mode of delivery allows participants to choose based on their personal and cultural needs. Voices of students in competition: Health Science First Year at the University of Otago, Dunedin Madgerie Jameson, Jeffrey Smith This article examines the experiences of students enrolled in Health Sciences First Year. Past and present students were interviewed to determine the similarities and differences in their experience. Students perceived the programme as stressful and demanding. The competitive nature of the programme limited students’ involvement in other university activities. Students learned the benefits of work/life balance. An investigation into the health benefits of mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) for people living with a range of chronic physical illnesses in New Zealand Jillian Simpson, Tim Mapel Mindfulness-based Stress Reduction is a programme developed in the US by neurobiologist Jon-Kabat Zinn, originally to help people with difficult to manage health problems. It is taught as 8 weekly classes and a full day retreat in which people to learn more about stress and how best to manage this. It involves various exercises to develop mindfulness (living in the moment without judgement) including a lying down relaxation/meditation, meditation sitting in a chair and simple stretching exercises. This research, one of the first studies in New Zealand, aimed to find out how effective this approach is for New Zealanders. The study demonstrated that MBSR helps people not only cope with their chronic health problems but also improves their wellbeing. NZMJ 8 July 2011, Vol 124 No 1338; ISSN 1175 8716 Page 5 of 144 URL: http://www.nzma.org.nz/journal/124-1338/4769/ ©NZMA Comorbidity among patients with colon cancer in New Zealand Diana Sarfati, Lavinia Tan, Tony Blakely, Neil Pearce This study aimed to investigate how common comorbidity was in a cohort of patients with bowel cancer in NZ; to identify factors associated with high levels of comorbidity in this group and to assess the extent to which comorbidity affects outcomes from bowel cancer. We used data from the NZ Cancer Registry to identify those with cancer and from hospitalisations to identify comorbid conditions. We found that nearly a third of bowel cancer patients had a least one comorbid condition. Comorbidity increased with increasing age as expected, and was more common among Maori and Pacific people, and those living in more deprived areas of NZ. We also found that comorbidity had a strongly negative effect on survival, and increased length of hospital stay. What do specialists and GPs think about the introduction of colorectal cancer screening? A qualitative study Gillian M Abel, Lee Thompson GPs and specialists, whilst supportive of screening, are not convinced that there is the capacity in New Zealand to introduce a colorectal screening programme.

    FLEXIBLE PACKAGING BUYERS GUIDE 2018 - 2019 FLEXIBLE PACKAGING • Innovative • Creates Shelf Appeal • Widely Extendible Into Diverse • Enables Visibility of Contents Product Categories • Provides Efficient Product to Package • Maintains and Indicates Freshness Ratios • Offers Consumer Conveniences • Uses Less Energy • Provides Reclosure and Dispensing • Creates Fewer Emissions Options • Creates Less Waste in the First • Is Easily Transported and Stored Place® As one of the fastest growing segments of the packaging industry, flexible packaging combines the best qualities of plastic, film, paper and aluminum foil to deliver a broad range of protective properties while employing a minimum of material. Typically taking the shape of a bag, pouch, liner, or overwrap, flexible packaging is defined as any package or any part of a package whose shape can be readily changed. Flexible packages are used for consumer and institutional products and in industrial applications, to protect, market, and distribute a vast array of products. Leading the way in packaging innovation, flexible packaging adds value and marketability to food and non-food products alike. From ensuring food safety and extending shelf life, to providing even heating, barrier protection, ease of use, resealability and superb printability, the industry continues to advance at an unprecedented rate. The life cycle attributes of flexible packaging demonstrate many sustainable advantages. Flexible packaging starts with less waste in the first place, greatly reducing landfill discards. Innovation and technology have enabled flexible packaging manufacturers to use fewer natural resources in the creation of their packaging, and improvements in production processes have reduced water and energy consumption, greenhouse gas emissions and volatile organic compounds.

  • Plain Packaging of Cigarettes and Smoking Behavior
    Maynard et al. Trials 2014, 15:252 http://www.trialsjournal.com/content/15/1/252 TRIALS STUDY PROTOCOL Open Access Plain packaging of cigarettes and smoking behavior: study protocol for a randomized controlled study Olivia M Maynard1,2,3*, Ute Leonards3, Angela S Attwood1,2,3, Linda Bauld2,4, Lee Hogarth5 and Marcus R Munafò1,2,3 Abstract Background: Previous research on the effects of plain packaging has largely relied on self-report measures. Here we describe the protocol of a randomized controlled trial investigating the effect of the plain packaging of cigarettes on smoking behavior in a real-world setting. Methods/Design: In a parallel group randomization design, 128 daily cigarette smokers (50% male, 50% female) will attend an initial screening session and be assigned plain or branded packs of cigarettes to smoke for a full day. Plain packs will be those currently used in Australia where plain packaging has been introduced, while branded packs will be those currently used in the United Kingdom. Our primary study outcomes will be smoking behavior (self-reported number of cigarettes smoked and volume of smoke inhaled per cigarette as measured using a smoking topography device). Secondary outcomes measured pre- and post-intervention will be smoking urges, motivation to quit smoking, and perceived taste of the cigarettes. Secondary outcomes measured post-intervention only will be experience of smoking from the cigarette pack, overall experience of smoking, attributes of the cigarette pack, perceptions of the on-packet health warnings, behavior changes, views on plain packaging, and the rewarding value of smoking. Sex differences will be explored for all analyses.

  • Advancing Tobacco Plain and Standardized Packaging in Low- and Middle-Income Countries: Advice from Experts
    Advancing Tobacco Plain and Standardized Packaging in Low- and Middle-Income Countries: Advice from Experts www.globaltobaccocontrol.org Introduction Tobacco packs can be colorful, attractive, and come in exciting shapes and sizes. Plain and standardized packaging removes the potential for companies to use these attractive elements by only allowing the tobacco pack to be presented in one color, shape, and size that is designed to be minimally attractive. This policy stipulates that packs may contain no brand imagery, and also that the brand name be written in a specific font, color, and size. Australia was the first country to introduce plain and standardized packaging for cigarettes in 2011, with the law taking effect in 2012. As of January 2020, France, the United Kingdom, New Zealand, Norway, Ireland, and Saudi Arabia have fully implemented plain and standardized packaging laws at the retail level. Thailand, Uruguay, Slovenia, Turkey, Israel, Canada, Singapore, Belgium, and Hungary have all passed or adopted plain and standardized packaging laws and are awaiting full implementation. Many additional countries are either debating or considering similar policies. We were interested in identifying specific studies or bodies of evidence that were viewed as crucial in the successful passage and implementation of tobacco plain packaging policy. Our goal is to inform low- and middle- income countries (LMIC) looking to pursue plain and standardized packaging with recommendations on critical research components, including study designs, study populations, and relevant research questions. Cigarette packs from New Zealand Advancing Tobacco Plain and Standardized Packaging in Low- and Middle-Income Countries: Advice from Experts 1 Methods We conducted semi-structured interviews with 23 participants who played significant roles, as policymakers, tobacco control advocates, or researchers, in the passage of tobacco product plain and standardized packaging policies in their countries (Australia, New Zealand, UK, France, Ireland, Norway, Canada, Thailand, and Uruguay).
