Working out what works


It usually appears that while it's relatively easy to identify health inequalities, finding robust evidence for what works in tackling those inequalities is rather more challenging. Some recently published articles tend to uphold that assumption. A UK-based team offers a systematic review of interventions and at a more theoretical or policy level, the Marmot review team publish an account of the use of rapid review techniques to develop policy proposals. Meanwhile, at the coalface, another article reflects bleakly on the effectiveness of partnership working and community engagement.
