For example, programme materials were not pretested with implementers and participants.
For example, programme scale-up in impact assessments by Otten et al. (2009) and Reniers et al. (2009) was likely enabled by external funds, but this was not made explicit and so we excluded these studies.
The media has an important role to play in cervical screening through, for example, programme story-lines where a character has cancer (Meissner et al, 2004) in the United Kingdom this can produce profound short-term effects, although evidence for effectiveness in bringing about sustained increases is variable (Howe et al, 2002).
"The argument for such an extension is that the current restrictions miss much of the TV children watch outside specific children's programming, but during 'family' viewing time – for example programmes such as The X-Factor – which are shown early on a Saturday and Sunday evening," said the report.
For example, programmes received funds that allowed for commercially printing materials but not for purchasing computers, printers, and paper which would have been more cost-effective.
For example, programmes would benefit from specific research on the best ways to recruit, train, support, and make use of volunteers within both inpatient and outpatient settings, without taking advantage of their freely provided time.
For example, programmes could jointly offer HPV vaccine to adolescents (or to infants) and some form of screening to their mothers during the vaccination sessions already in place in most developing countries.
In addition, the majority of evaluated interventions designed to support recruitment and retention of health professionals have been education programmes (for example, programmes that require clinical placement rotations in rural or remote settings), rather than financial incentive or professional and personal support programmes.
For example, the Programme for Improving Mental Health Care (PRIME) (see http://www.prime.uct.ac.za), an international research and implementation programme funded by the UK Department for International Development, is now assessing the practical requirements of service integration and scale-up (28).
Some companies actively employ older people, for example Barclays Digital Eagless programme.
For example, a programme at the University of Kansas in Lawrence for engineering students has 15 hour-long sessions with guest lectures by active faculty members.
