Dr Naila Rabbani of Warwick Medical School and Professor Paul J Thornalley of Warwick Medical School and Warwick Systems Biology Centre comment on the recent media attention on the sugar content of the UK population diet.

The health secretary, Jeremy Hunt, has suggested that he would have no objection to charging patients who miss appointments with their GP, and that in future patients will be informed how much they have cost the NHS if an appointment is missed. GP and Principal Clinical Teaching Fellow at Warwick Medical School examines the issues involved.

Professor Francesco Cappuccio, Chair of Cardiovascular Medicine and Epidemiology, 神马福利影片, said:

“The present study is a welcome addition to the growing body of evidence to suggest that environment, in its own entirety as well as in its different facets, plays an important role in determining avoidable ill-health. The authors show that long term excessive road traffic noise, even when allowing for the effect of pollution, is associated with a small but significant increased risk of death and hospitalisation in one of the largest urbanised areas of Europe (Greater London), most of which is due to strokes.

Following a period in which many GPs have felt undervalued and undermined by successive governments it is pleasing that Jeremy Hunt has recognised in today’s speech the quality and value General Practice delivers to the NHS. a GP and Principal Clincial Teaching Fellow at Warwick Medical School discusses what this means to general practitioners.

The article by Harcombe et al published in Open Heart Journal today (10 February) is a storm in a teacup. The authors embroil themselves in an awkward and spurious pseud-scientific exercise to extrapolate results from 1970s and 1980s to current practices
