Abstract:
Objectives: To examine whether existing clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) for cholesterol testing reflect research evidence and hence may control or reduce costs while maintaining or improving the quality of care. Methods: A systematic search for published and unpublished cholesterol testing CPGs and independent critical appraisal of the CPGs by two researchers using a standard checklist. Results: In four of the five CPGs analysed, the link between the research evidence and the recommendations was not maintained. The appraisal, local experience and the literature all suggest that panel composition is an important explanation, in that the greater the involvement of clinical experts in the development process of the CPGs, the less the recommendations reflected the research evidence. Even though their participation is important for CPG uptake, clinical expert panels appear to have difficulty limiting CPGs to research-based recommendations. Conclusions: Existing cholesterol testing CPGs are unlikely to improve the quality of care while controlling or reducing costs. The problem lies not with guideline implementation but with the guidelines themselves. It is unclear how best to ensure that recommendations reflect research evidence but this is likely to require significant and progressive changes to the current guideline development process, including a redefinition of the clinical experts' role.

Abstract:
Purpose Daily time spent on one activity cannot change without compensatory changes in others, which themselves may impact on health outcomes. Optimal daily activity combinations may differ across outcomes. We estimated optimal daily activity durations for the highest fitness and lowest adiposity. Methods Cross-sectional Child Health CheckPoint data (1182 11-12-year-olds; 51% boys) from the population-based Longitudinal Study of Australian Children were used. Daily activity composition (sleep, sedentary time, light physical activity [LPA], moderate-to-vigorous physical activity [MVPA]) was from 8-day, 24-hour accelerometry. We created composite outcomes for fitness (VO2max; standing long jump) and adiposity (waist-to-height ratio; body mass index; fat-to-fat-free log-ratio). Adjusted compositional models regressed activity log-ratios against each outcome. Best activity compositions (optimal time-use zones) were plotted in quaternary tetrahedrons; the overall optimal time-use composition was the center of the overlapping area. Results Time-use composition was associated with fitness and adiposity (all measures p<0.001). Optimal time use differed for fitness and adiposity. While both maximized MVPA and minimized sedentary time, optimal fitness days had higher LPA (3.4 h) and shorter sleep (8.25 h), but optimal adiposity days had lower LPA (1.0 h) and longer sleep (10.9 h). Balancing both outcomes, the overall optimal time-use composition was (mean [range]): 10.2 [9.5; 10.5] h sleep, 9.9 [8.8; 11.2] h sedentary time, 2.4 [1.8; 3.2] h LPA and 1.5 [1.5; 1.5] h MVPA. Conclusion Optimal time use for children’s fitness and adiposity involves trade-offs. To best balance both outcomes, estimated activity durations for sleep and LPA align with, but for MVPA exceed, 24-h guidelines.

Abstract:
Abstract Objectives To inform the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, 2020–2025, the USDA and HHS identified important public health questions to be examined by the 2020 Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee. The Committee conducted a systematic review with support from the USDA's Nutrition Evidence Systematic Review (NESR) team to answer the question: What is the relationship between dietary patterns consumed during lactation and human milk composition and quantity? Methods The Committee developed protocols to describe how they would use NESR's SR methodology to examine the evidence related to dietary patterns (DP) during lactation and human milk (HM). NESR librarians conducted a literature search and NESR analysts dual-screened the results using pre-defined inclusion and exclusion criteria to identify articles published between 2000 and 2019. NESR analysts extracted data from and assessed the risk of bias of included studies. The Committee synthesized the evidence, developed conclusion statements, and graded the strength of the evidence. Results This systematic review included 7 articles. Three articles from 2 cross-sectional studies examined DP and HM, while 4 articles from 3 randomized controlled trials examined diets based on macronutrient distributions and HM. The body of evidence was limited by small sample sizes, risk of bias concerns, heterogeneous methods, and study populations with limited racial/ethnic and socioeconomic diversity. Conclusions Limited evidence suggests that maternal consumption of diets higher in fat (&gt;35% fat) and lower in carbohydrate during lactation is related to higher total fat in HM collected in the maternal postprandial period. Limited evidence suggests that certain maternal DP during lactation, including diets based on macronutrient distributions, are related to the relative proportions of saturated fat and monounsaturated fatty acids in HM, and of polyunsaturated fatty acids in HM collected in the maternal postprandial period. Insufficient or no evidence was available to assess the association between DP during lactation and HM quantity, as well as total protein, water- and fat-soluble vitamins, minerals, human milk oligosaccharides, and bioactive proteins in HM.

Abstract:
AimsTo provide guidance for the management of mood disorders, both depressive and bipolar disorders, based on scientific evidence supplemented by expert clinical consensus.BackgroundIt is the EIT responsibility to monitor a patient's physical health and the effects of anti-psychotic medication for at least the first 12 months.MethodThe update has been developed in a consistent manner to the 2015 guideline. The composition of the working group has remained largely the same as has the process to evaluate the evidence and synthesise the findings. To approach the update, the working group identified areas within the 2015 guideline where significant changes had occurred, for example the development of new therapies or where thinking and practice have changed and new ideas have emerged. Recommendations were reviewed in light of any new findings and evidence. As only some sections of the 2015 guideline have been updated/revised, the time taken to develop the update has been considerably shorter. Public consultation and peer review informed the final version.ResultThis led us to review the mechanism in the team for arranging and reviewing these investigations.ConclusionThe mood disorders clinical practice guideline update addresses both depressive and bipolar disorders. It provides up-to-date recommendations and guidance within an evidence-based framework supplemented by expert clinical consensus.

Abstract:
Down syndrome (DS) is related to diseases like congenital heart disease, obstructive sleep apnea, obesity and overweight. Studies focused on DS associated with obesity and overweight are still scarce. The main objective of this work was to analyze the relationship between dietary intervention, physical exercise and body composition, in DS with overweight and obesity. This review is based on the PRISMA guidelines (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses). Selection criteria for this analysis were: publications between January 1997 and December 2019; DS individuals with overweight and obesity; clinical trials using dietary intervention and physical exercise paying attention to changes in body composition. Selected clinical trials were focused on an exclusive intervention based on physical exercise. The anthropometric measures analyzed were body fat, BMI, waist circumference, body weight and fat free mass. The main conclusion is that prescribing structured physical exercise intervention may be related to a greater variation in body composition. Despite limited number of clinical trials analyzed, it can be assumed that the reported studies have not achieved optimal results and that the design of future clinical trials should be improved. Some guidelines are proposed to contribute to the improvement of knowledge in this field.

Abstract:
Violence prevention is of the utmost concern in some schools. For various reasons, rural schools face a number of challenges that may prevent them from implementing strong, evidence-based violence prevention initiatives. Given that the Internet houses a plethora of cost-free resources on threat assessment and violence prevention in schools, rural educators may consult the internet for information. However, because little is known about the composition and quality of such resources, it is important that they are properly evaluated. As such, the purpose of the present study was to compare existing, free, online school-based threat assessment resources to an evidence-based threat assessment framework to determine how well online resources communicate evidence-based principles. Using component analysis, a total of 11 online resources were evaluated. Overall, the findings from this investigation revealed that the evaluated online threat assessment resources were not as comprehensive as evidence-based guidelines.

AbstractObjectiveTo describe the dietary composition of the New Nordic Diet (NND) and to compare it with the Nordic Nutrition Recommendations (NNR)/Danish Food-based Dietary Guidelines (DFDG) and with the average Danish diet.DesignDietary components with clear health-promoting properties included in the DFDG were included in the NND in amounts at least equivalent to those prescribed by the DFDG. The quantities of the other dietary components in the NND were based on scientific arguments for their potential health-promoting properties together with considerations of acceptability, toxicological concerns, availability and the environment. Calculations were conducted for quantifying the dietary and nutrient composition of the NND.SettingDenmark.SubjectsNone.ResultsThe NND is characterized by a high content of fruits and vegetables (especially berries, cabbages, root vegetables and legumes), fresh herbs, potatoes, plants and mushrooms from the wild countryside, whole grains, nuts, fish and shellfish, seaweed, free-range livestock (including pigs and poultry) and game. Overall, the average daily intakes of macro- and micronutrients in the NND meet the NNR with small adjustments based on evidence of their health-promoting properties.ConclusionsThe NND is a prototype regional diet that takes palatability, health, food culture and the environment into consideration. Regionally appropriate healthy diets could be created on similar principles anywhere in the world.

Abstract:
Background: Clinical guidelines have an important role to play in helping to close the gap between research evidence and clinical practice. In order to fulfill this role, guidelines need to be valid, relevant and comprehensive. Despite advances in chemotherapy and radiotherapy, cancer treatment still remains associated with clinically important oral complications that can impact severely on a patient's quality of life. No clear guidelines exist outlining the optimal oral care strategy for children, teenagers and young adults treated for cancer. Aims: (i) To assess the quality of current clinical guidelines for those working within dentistry; (ii) To develop evidence-based guidelines on mouth care for children, teenagers and young adults being treated for cancer; (iii) To compare the quality of published guidelines and their recommendations in light of supporting research evidence. Methods: (i) Dental guidelines, published in English between 1997-2004, were appraised using the Appraisal of Guidelines Research and Evaluation (AGREE) instrument; (ii) A telephone survey of UK cancer centres was undertaken to establish current practice with regard to mouth care for children treated for cancer. National, evidence-based guidelines were developed following, where appropriate, the established methodology of the Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network (SIGN); (iii) A qualitative assessment of previously published guidelines on mouth care for cancer patients was undertaken. Results: (i) The AGREE instrument identified few examples of good quality dental guidelines; (ii) There is diversity in the mouth care provided to children being treated for cancer in the UK, particularly with regard to the use of routine, preventative oral care therapies. The guideline development process required a combination of an evaluation of research evidence and a formal opinion gathering process. A variety of interventions have been used for the management of oral mucositis, candidiasis, xerostomia and herpes simplex virus; few are supported by the research evidence; (iii) Variation exists in the methods used to produce previously published guidelines on mouth care for cancer patients. Recommendations vary irrespective of the supporting evidence-base. Conclusion: Guidelines need to be assessed for quality before being applied in practice. The guideline development process needs to be transparent, with clear links between recommendations and supporting evidence. There is currently variation in the mouth care provided to children, teenagers and young adults being treated for cancer in the UK. National, evidence-based guidelines may help to reduce this variation. Further research is required into the most effective methods of dissemination and implementation, exploring the role of psychological models of behavioural change.

Abstract:
These British Association for Psychopharmacology guidelines cover the range and aims of treatment for anxiety disorders. They are based explicitly on the available evidence and are presented as recommendations to aid clinical decision making in primary and secondary medical care. They may also serve as a source of information for patients and their carers. The recommendations are presented together with a more detailed review of the available evidence. A consensus meeting involving experts in anxiety disorders reviewed the main subject areas and considered the strength of evidence and its clinical implications. The guidelines were constructed after extensive feedback from participants and interested parties. The strength of supporting evidence for recommendations was rated. The guidelines cover the diagnosis of anxiety disorders and key steps in clinical management, including acute treatment, relapse prevention and approaches for patients who do not respond to first-line treatments.

Abstract:
Purpose of review – This systematic review sought to compare available evidence-based clinical treatment guidelines for all specific eating disorders. Recent findings – Nine evidence-based clinical treatment guidelines were located through a systematic search. The international comparison demonstrated notable commonalities and differences among current evidence-based clinical guidelines for eating disorders. Consistency across guidelines was greatest for treatments with a larger evidence base, while those with a lower evidence base had recommendations that varied considerably. Summary – Evidence-based clinical guidelines represent an important step toward the dissemination and implementation of evidence-based treatments into clinical practice. Despite advances in clinical research on eating disorders, a growing body of literature demonstrates that individuals with eating disorders often do not receive an evidence-based treatment for their disorder. Regarding the dissemination and implementation of evidence-based treatments, current guidelines do endorse the main empirically validated treatment approaches with considerable agreement, but additional recommendations are largely inconsistent. An increased evidence base is critical in offering clinically reliable and consistent guidance for the treatment of eating disorders. Because developing and updating clinical guidelines is time-consuming and complex, an international coordination of guideline development, for example, across the European Union, would be desirable.

Abstract:
Aim: To use published literature to obtain estimates of large, medium and small differences in quality of life (QOL) data for the European Organisation for the Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30 (EORTC QLQ-C30). Methods: An innovative method combining systematic review of published studies, expert opinions and meta-analysis was used to obtain estimates of large, medium and small differences for QLQ-C30 scores. Published mean data were identified from the literature. Differences between groups of patients and over time within patients were reviewed by 34 experts in QOL measurement and cancer treatment. The experts, blinded to QOL results, were asked to predict these differences. Differences were combined using meta-analytic techniques to obtain estimates of small, medium and large effects. Qualitative interviews with patients and experts were used to assess the new methodology. Results: 911 articles were identified, with 211 relevant articles (3444 contrasts) for the analysis. Our systematic reviewof the randomised controlled trials (RCTs) showed that the clinical relevance of QOL differences was rarely discussed. Our meta-analysis estimates varied depending on the subscale and on whether QOL was improving or deteriorating. Thus, the recommended minimum to detect medium differences between groups ranges from 7 (diarrhoea) to 19 points (role functioning). When interpreting differences over time a minimum of 7 points represents a medium difference but for most subscales a larger difference is required for a medium deterioration compared with a medium improvement. Conclusion: Guidelines for interpreting the size of effects are provided for the QLQ- C30 subscales. These guidelines can be used for sample size calculations for clinical trials and to interpret differences in QLQ-C30 scores. The novel methodology was shown to be robust in sensitivity analyses but benefitted from a thorough quality assessment and using only the best quality evidence to derive the guidelines.

Abstract:
Pre-diabetes is a serious health problem in the United States. Distinguished by plasma glucose levels that are above the normal threshold, patients with pre-diabetes are 10 times more likely to develop type 2 diabetes. Patients with pre-diabetes suffer the same complications as patients with diabetes including diabetic retinopathy, nephropathy, and microalbuminuria. There is considerable evidence to support the idea that early identification and aggressive treatment of pre-diabetes has the potential to delay disease progression. The American Diabetes Association’s clinical practice guideline recommends management of with lifestyle modification and metformin for patients who are at risk for developing type 2 diabetes. The purpose of this project was to evaluate the implementation of the 2012 ADA clinical practice guidelines regarding the management of patients with pre-diabetes by the health care providers at a volunteer-run clinic located in a large metropolitan area in the southeastern United States. This study, even with a small sample size (n=26) revealed that the providers at the clinic had not implemented the 2012 ADA clinical practice guidelines. Clinical practice guidelines promote health care interventions that have proven benefits and improve the consistency of care provided to patients. The greatest benefits of implementing clinical practice guidelines for patients with pre-diabetes are early diagnosis and aggressive disease management. This would improve patient outcomes and in the long run, decrease the cost of medical care.

Full text
Abstract:
Older adults are particularly vulnerable to the development of pressure ulcers (PUs) as a result of skin changes and reduced mobility (Knox, Anderson & Anderson, 1994; Russell et al., 2003). This is associated with diminished quality of life, longer hospitalisations and increased morbidity and mortality (Margolis et al., 2002).In view of the high incidence of PUs (grade 1-4) occurring in elderly patients in acute care, a systematic review of related studies was conducted in August 2011. The optimal frequency and methods of repositioning are described in the literature. With well-designed implementation and evaluation plans, the proposed repositioning guidelines are likely to reduce the incidence of PUs (grade 1-4), while in turn lessening the healthcare burden and preserving patients’ quality of life. Pilot testing, a trial run to test the feasibility of the innovation, will be carried out in the proposed medical ward, and training provided to all staff before the intervention. To proceed with the change, the intervention must be cost-effective and beneficial to all stakeholders. Outcome evaluation determines the number of goals achieved by the innovation and to what degree, and is very important (Melnyk & Fineout-Overholt, 2005).The PU incidence (grade 1-4) is expected to be different after the implementation of the innovation.

Full text
Abstract:
Background: Falls are one of the most common and serious problems facing the elderly and are known to be associated with significant mortality, morbidity, decreased functioning and premature institutionalization. In Hong Kong, the prevalence of falls among community-dwelling older adults is 19.3%. Moreover, the incidence of falls among older people in institutions is almost three times the fall rates for the community-dwelling elderly. Institutional falls are regarded as common adverse events in hospitalized older patients. Significant mortality, morbidity and healthcare costs associated with institutional falls led institutions to recognize falls as a high-priority safety risk for hospitalized patients. This demonstrated the significance of providing the health care providers with an evidenced-based practice guideline of an effective multifactorial fall prevention programme in order to prevent in-patient falls. Objectives: The objectives of the study are to systematically review and present the best evidence for the effectiveness of multifactorial fall prevention interventions in reducing falls in hospitals, to translate the reviewed evidence and to develop evidence-based practice guidelines for the multifactorial fall prevention programme as well as to develop a plan for implementing and evaluating the multifactorial fall prevention programme. Methods: The relevant literature was searched by several electronic databases. The related literature was then retrieved, reviewed and synthesized. The quality assessment of the studies was performed according to the methodological checklist for controlled trials designed by the Scottish intercollegiate Guideline Network (SIGN). Evidenced-based practice guidelines for the multifactorial fall prevention programme were then synthesized according to the findings of the reviewed literature, while the implementation potential being assessed in terms of transferability, feasibility and the cost-benefit ratio. Results: Five studies were identified according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria set. “Evidence-based guidelines of fall prevention programme for hospitalized older patients” were formulated based on the review of the selected studies. Fourteen recommendations of the evidence-based guidelines are formulated and graded according to the grading system of Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network (SIGN). The evidence-based recommendations can offer nurses and other health care professionals the standards and strategies required for implementing multifactorial fall risk assessment and multifactorial fall prevention interventions, including environmental modifications, knowledge, medication reviews and exercise. A communication plan for various parties in hospitals including a pilot test for determining the feasibility of the innovation and an evaluation plan to determine the effectiveness of the fall prevention programme were subsequently developed. Conclusion: This study reviewed evidence for the effectiveness of the multifactorial fall prevention programme in reducing the incidence of falls, translated the reviewed evidence and developed evidence-based guidelines for a multifactorial fall prevention programme, which can provide the health care practitioners with an evidence-based approach in fall risk assessment and management so as to prevent in-patient falls.

Abstract:
Professional development (PD) is essential to support teachers to transition to online teaching, yet there are few evidence-based guidelines to assist those designing PD to determine both its content and structure. This paper provides an example of the design of an evidence-based PD resource that drew on Kilgour et al.’s (2019) threshold concepts, Northcote et al.’s (2019) pedagogical guidelines for PD and various institutional inputs as a form of evidence. By combining these sets of evidence, the resource was designed to support teachers to develop skills for online teaching that was both evidence-based, and tailored to the educational context and needs of staff. The paper adds to the literature by providing those developing PD with an example of how institutional inputs can be combined with scholarly research to develop an evidence-based PD program that was readily adaptable to support staff teaching online during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Bolton, Laura. WASH in Schools for Student Return During the COVID-19 Pandemic. Institute of Development Studies (IDS), February 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.19088/k4d.2021.024.

Full text
Abstract:
The literature on WASH and school re-opening during the COVID-19 pandemic is dominated by guidelines with little in the way of recent evidence or lessons learned. Analysis of data from school re-openings at the end of 2020 suggests that with mitigation measures in place community infection rates should not be affected by children returning to school. Although children carry a lower risk of infection, they do have large numbers of contact in the school environment, so hygiene and distancing measures are important. The key guidelines for WASH in schools during the COVID-19 pandemic include: children and all school staff must be educated with regards to hand hygiene; hand hygiene stations must be provided at entrances and exits; hand washing must be frequent and requires sufficient water and soap; school buses should have hand hygiene measures in place; and the school environment must be disinfected daily. Environmental, or nudge-based, cues are recommended to support behaviour change in children based on pre-COVID-19 evidence. Examples include colourful footprints leading to a handwashing facility, images of eyes above handwashing facilities, embedding toys in soap, and putting pictures of germs on surfaces.

Abstract:
3Association of Anaesthetists | Better musculoskeletal health for anaesthetistsSummaryWork-related musculoskeletal disorders are very common amongst healthcare workers, and there is evidence that anaesthetists are at greater risk of upper limb disorders than other groups. This guidance aims to bring together advice and recommendations from a variety of sources in order to inform and support anaesthetists at work, in an attempt to reduce the prevalence and severity of work-related musculoskeletal disorders and the exacerbation of pre-existing disorders. Mechanical and psychosocial risk factors for work-associated musculoskeletal disorders are summarised, along with general principles for achieving better musculoskeletal health and practices specific to areas of the body most at risk. These include recommended exercises and stretches during sedentary work.RecommendationsAttention must be paid by both employers and anaesthetists to the physical and psychological risk factors that may lead to development and/or exacerbation of musculoskeletal disorders. This requires ongoing risk assessments and adherence to published standards of health and safety at work, including training. Such a programme is best achieved as part of a multidisciplinary approach.What other guidelines are available on this topic? There are many sources of guidance on health and safety in the workplace, across many sectors, much of which is of relevance to anaesthetists. There is no readily accessible guidance specifically aimed at the anaesthetic workplace.Why was this guideline developed?This guidance was developed as part of a wider piece of work by the Association of Anaesthetists based around ergonomics of the anaesthetic workplace, as a result of the increased reported incidence of musculoskeletal disorders amongst anaesthetists. It aims to draw on existing guidance and present a summary of advice relevant to anaesthetists and their practice.How and why does this publication differ from existing guidelines?This guidance summarises other advice and recommendations, and focuses on factors relevant to the anaesthetic workplace

Full text
Abstract:
The purpose of our critically appraised topic is to synthesize the highest-level evidence available regarding interventions for increasing confidence and mental health outcomes in caregivers taking loved ones home from inpatient rehabilitation. The final portfolio contains six research articles from peer-reviewed journals. Study designs include randomized control trials, a systematic review, and a pretest-posttest without a control group. All studies relate directly to the components of the PICO question. Four of the articles discussed both caregiver confidence and mental health while two articles discussed only mental health. There is strong evidence to support that in-person hands on training, in person discussion-based training, and/or virtual resources helped increase confidence in caregivers of patients. There is mixed evidence and only limited improvement to support mental health. The findings from this critically appraised topic will be used to draft new ideas for practice guidelines for addressing caregiver education and caregiver mental health in an inpatient rehabilitation facility.

Downes, Jane, ed. Chalcolithic and Bronze Age Scotland: ScARF Panel Report. Society for Antiquaries of Scotland, September 2012. http://dx.doi.org/10.9750/scarf.09.2012.184.

Full text
Abstract:
The main recommendations of the panel report can be summarised under five key headings:  Building the Scottish Bronze Age: Narratives should be developed to account for the regional and chronological trends and diversity within Scotland at this time. A chronology Bronze Age Scotland: ScARF Panel Report iv based upon Scottish as well as external evidence, combining absolute dating (and the statistical modelling thereof) with re-examined typologies based on a variety of sources – material cultural, funerary, settlement, and environmental evidence – is required to construct a robust and up to date framework for advancing research.  Bronze Age people: How society was structured and demographic questions need to be imaginatively addressed including the degree of mobility (both short and long-distance communication), hierarchy, and the nature of the ‘family’ and the ‘individual’. A range of data and methodologies need to be employed in answering these questions, including harnessing experimental archaeology systematically to inform archaeologists of the practicalities of daily life, work and craft practices.  Environmental evidence and climate impact: The opportunity to study the effects of climatic and environmental change on past society is an important feature of this period, as both palaeoenvironmental and archaeological data can be of suitable chronological and spatial resolution to be compared. Palaeoenvironmental work should be more effectively integrated within Bronze Age research, and inter-disciplinary approaches promoted at all stages of research and project design. This should be a two-way process, with environmental science contributing to interpretation of prehistoric societies, and in turn, the value of archaeological data to broader palaeoenvironmental debates emphasised. Through effective collaboration questions such as the nature of settlement and land-use and how people coped with environmental and climate change can be addressed.  Artefacts in Context: The Scottish Chalcolithic and Bronze Age provide good evidence for resource exploitation and the use, manufacture and development of technology, with particularly rich evidence for manufacture. Research into these topics requires the application of innovative approaches in combination. This could include biographical approaches to artefacts or places, ethnographic perspectives, and scientific analysis of artefact composition. In order to achieve this there is a need for data collation, robust and sustainable databases and a review of the categories of data.  Wider Worlds: Research into the Scottish Bronze Age has a considerable amount to offer other European pasts, with a rich archaeological data set that includes intact settlement deposits, burials and metalwork of every stage of development that has been the subject of a long history of study. Research should operate over different scales of analysis, tracing connections and developments from the local and regional, to the international context. In this way, Scottish Bronze Age studies can contribute to broader questions relating both to the Bronze Age and to human society in general.
