Differences in the effectiveness of individual-level smoking cessation interventions by socioeconomic status by Theodoulou, A, Fanshawe, TR, Leavens, E, Theodoulou, E, Wu, AD, Heath, L, Stewart, C, Nollen, N, Ahluwalia, JS, Butler, AR, Hajizadeh, A, Thomas, J, Lindson, N, Hartmann-Boyce, J

“…There was very low‐certainty evidence of no difference in quit rates by SES for face‐to‐face counselling compared to less intensive counselling, balanced components, or usual care. However, the CI included the possibility of favouring lower and higher SES groups (ROR 1.26, 95% CI 0.18 to 8.93; from 1 of 6 studies, 294 participants; 5 studies reported no difference), indicating a possibly neutral impact. …”

Tsewang Norbu NGB by Cantwell, C, Mayer, R

“…Given the recent near destruction of the entire rNying ma'i rgyud 'bum corpus, coupled with the fact that we often find numerous and substantial variants in rNying ma'i rgyud 'bum texts both transmissional (unwitting changes by copyists) and recensional (deliberate changes by editors), all editions are now invaluable sources for any research on this religious tradition, or, indeed, to any efforts to render these texts fully readable once more through careful textual editing. The well-written and attractively presented Rig 'dzin Tshe dbang nor bu edition manuscripts are thus of great significance to the preservation of the whole rNying ma Tantric tradition, and it is our hope that our work in cataloguing them, among other things made with future text-critical concerns in mind, will enable future scholarship in this field to progress.…”
