The higher proportion of child protection issues, current self-harm, previous and current psychiatric admissions and current care from a psychiatrist in this particular group could possibly be explained by a different diagnosis, such as borderline personality disorder (BPD).
Our data represents a baseline for future analyses in this population to monitor vaccination programme effects on the prevalence of the vaccine-targeted HR types 16 and 18, the proportion of cross-protection provided to non-vaccine HR HPV types and the issue of type-replacement.
Relative to the mean proportion of area under protection or available for conservation, the three scenarios were very similar (Table 1).
However, the assumption that neutralizing only one subtype equates with disease irrelevance should be made with caution: 3791 is almost completely subtype C restricted, but because subtype C is such a large proportion of circulating viruses, protection against this epitope may be highly disease relevant in certain epidemic areas and globally would represent 63% of circulating viruses.
Overall, the proportion of time health protection staff spent on cluster investigations increased significantly (from 2.7%to7.2%2%, p = 0.04).
In 2002, the proportion of health and protection proposals containing reproductive health activities was 22.5%, and in 2013, this was 59.5%.
The number of proposals containing reproductive health activities increased by an average of 21.9% per year, while the proportion of health and protection sector appeals containing reproductive health activities increased by an average of 10.1% per year.
An average annual increase of 21.9% in absolute numbers of proposals that include reproductive health and an average annual increase of 10.1% in the proportion of health and protection proposals that include reproductive health marks great strides in recognition of reproductive health needs in emergencies.
With respect to workload associated with the TB-STS, there was no change over time in the contact tracing activities of nurses or the frequency of incident meetings attended by physicians; however the proportion of time health protection staff spent on investigating TB transmission increased significantly.
However, in this study we found the proportion of time health protection staff spent on cluster investigations increased and the number of investigations that used strain typing increased, but there was no increase in the reported number of possible transmission links found between clustered cases.
