  • Role of Environment In
    Global strategies to reduce the health-care burden of craniofacial anomalies Role of environment 4 in CFA 4.1 Socioeconomic status and orofacial clefts The investigation of the relationship between socioeconomic status and the prevalence of various health outcomes has provided important clues as to etiology. For example, the observation of an increasing risk of neural tube defects with decreasing socioeconomic status was one of the clues to a dietary hypothesis for these defects (Elwood and Colquhoun, 1992). Little attempt has been made to investigate whether the risk of orofacial clefts varies by socioeconomic status. Womersley and Stone (1987) examined the prevalence at birth of orofacial clefts within Greater Glasgow (Scotland) during the period 1974-1985, according to housing and employment characteristics recorded in the 1981 census. The highest rates were observed in areas with high proportions of local authority housing with young families, high unemployment and a preponderance of unskilled workers, whereas the lowest rates were found in affluent areas with high proportions of professional and non-manual workers in large owner-occupied or high-quality housing. Most of this pattern was accounted for by CP, with less variation in CL/P. A variety of different indicators of socioeconomic status have been developed (Liberatos et al., 1988). In an international context, it seems appropriate to use one that is specific to the local area, and one that can be compared between countries, e.g. years of schooling. As socioeconomic status can be difficult to determine at the level of the individual, especially for women, there has been increasing interest in developing, and using, area-based measures of material deprivation as a proxy for socioeconomic status (Townsend,1987; Carstairs and Morris, 1990).

It works to ensure that the UK – and indeed the world – benefits from the contributions of the hugely talented teams of doctors, student doctors and colleagues who are working in medical schools to improve patients’ lives. To that end, we present here a selective overview of the impact – nationally and internationally – of individuals and teams who have worked in the UK’s medical schools, universities and hospitals over the past 150 years. Their efforts have not only transformed the quality and quantity of our lives, but have immeasurably changed society for the better.

  • Conclusions and Recommendations
    WHO meetings on international collaborative research on craniofacial anomalies Conclusions and 8 recommendations After thorough discussions of the many initial options, the following major themes were proposed: 8.1 Treatment of CFA Three interrelated research issues were addressed within the clinical theme. 8.1.1 Evidence-based care This issue focuses on the replacement of current widespread uncertainty and confusion in clinical care with a sound evidence-base derived from rigorous clinical research. There is a pressing need to mobilize a critical mass of clinical research expertise and to access sufficiently large samples of patients for adequately- powered clinical trials. Initial efforts should include the following: trials of surgical methods for the repair of different orofacial cleft subtypes, not just unilateral clefts; trials of surgical methods for the correction of velopharyngeal insufficiency; trials of the use of prophylactic ventilation tubes (grommets) for middle-ear disease in patients with cleft palate; trials of adjunctive procedures in cleft care, especially those that place an increased burden on the patient, family, or medical services, such as presurgical orthopaedics, primary dentition, orthodontics and maxillary protraction; trials of methods for the management of perioperature pain, swelling and infection, and nursing; trials of methods to optimize feeding before and after surgery; 96 Global strategies to reduce the health-care burden of craniofacial anomalies trials addressing the special circumstances of care in the developing world in respect of surgical, anaesthetic and nursing care; trials of different modalities of speech therapy, orthodontic treatment and counselling. Equally urgent is the need to create collaborative groups, or improve the networking of existing groups, in order to develop and standardize outcome measures.

Oakley, Jr. MD, MSPM,1 Theodore H Tulchinsky MD MPH2 ABSTRACT Folic acid is an essential water soluble B vitamin which has been used for decades in the prevention of folate defi ciency anemia of pregnancy. In 1991, folic acid taken prior to the start of pregnancy was shown unequivocally to prevent spina bifi da and anencephaly—two of the most serious and common birth (neural tube) defects. Soon governments recommended that women of reproductive age consume folic acid daily to prevent these birth defects. Because compliance was low and since more than half of pregnancies are unplanned, the United States Food and Drug Administration mandated in 1998 that all enriched fl our be fortifi ed with folic acid at a concentration estimated to give the average woman an intake of 100 micrograms of folic acid a day. Canada and Chile followed with similar requirements for folic acid fortifi cation of wheat fl our. Now there is mandatory fortifi cation in more than 50 countries globally. Where fortifi cation has been implemented and studied, it has led to dramatic increases in serum folate concentrations, reduction in neural tube defects, folate defi ciency anemia, as well as the reduction in homocysteine concentrations and stroke mortality with no known risk. Australia implemented mandatory folic acid fortifi cation in 2009. To date, no country in Europe has implemented mandatory folic acid fortifi cation of fl our, although it has been recommended by the UK Food Safety Authority.
