Researchers at King’s College London, together with clinicians from Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust, have developed a rapid method to simultaneously screen patients for a range of genetic and acquired clinical conditions from a single dried blood spot.

The test uses a technique known as mass spectrometry to analyse proteins, enzymes and metabolites in the blood without the need for the large liquid blood samples currently used. This is less invasive for patients and the costs and biohazards associated with sample transport, processing and storage are minimised. The test has been used to screen for inherited metabolic and sickle cell disease in newborn babies and can now be used in the early detection and monitoring of chronic health problems, including kidney and heart disease and diabetes.

tests for prohibited substances, including amphetamine and anabolic steroids. ‘This is a challenging area of forensic science,’ says Professor Cowan. ‘A huge number of prohibited substances need to be detected, often at very low concentrations. Some, such as testosterone, are also naturally produced in the body, making it hard to prove that they have been administered.’

At the same time, the Centre must provide

intense legal scrutiny. So how do they know they’re getting it right? ‘We maintain a chain of custody for all our samples,’ says Professor Cowan, ‘and WADA carries out regular blind tests on its laboratories. Our ongoing accreditation is a guarantee of the reliability of our work in helping catch drug cheats.’

Dr Thomas Christie was a successful rower during and after his time at King’s. The retired anaesthesiologist, who graduated in 1950, twice won Silver Goblets at Henley Royal Regatta and took silver at the 1954 British Empire and Commonwealth Games.

The Olympic Games of 1948, however, were a disappointment. Competing as a member of the coxless four, Dr Christie says he and his fellow British rowers stayed at a house in Henley during the Games, taking most of their meals there. With red meat in short supply, chicken was a common meal. Just before their

race, Dr Christie and his teammates were struck with salmonella – which he is sure came from an improperly prepared chicken. ‘To be perfectly honest, we all got diarrhoea,’ he says. In their weakened state, the foursome simply could not perform at their expected level.

While London hosted most of the events during the ‘Austerity Games’, Alex Robertson-Kellie AKC (Geography, 1954) recalls that Torquay hosted the Games’ sailing events.

‘It was quite an exceptional experience for Torquinians, who welcomed all sorts of people

from all over the world,’ says Robertson-Kellie. ‘I was a Boy Scout at the time and the Scouts were prominent in supporting

opening and closing ceremonies.’Although a bad meal dashed

his Olympic medal dreams, Dr Christie fondly remembers his time rowing. He hopes to attend some of this year’s races at Dorney Lake to see rowers experiencing the sensation he clearly recalls from six decades ago. ‘When you have a good eight rowing well, it’s absolutely exhilarating.’

NO HEALTH WITHOUT MENTAL HEALTHKing’s is part of a collaboration drawing attention to one of the developing world’s greatest unmet healthcare needsImagine a health condition which is widespread across the world. In many cases, it lasts a lifetime. It prevents people from working, makes them more vulnerable to infections and malnutrition and carries

And although international aid organisations and philanthropic foundations are doing great work stamping out diseases such as HIV, malaria and polio, few, as yet, are interested in tackling this massive problem.

The condition? Mental health problems, including schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and depression. These make up a tenth of the disease burden in the developing world.

‘Mental health is the big neglected disease topic in global health, even though it makes

lower-income countries,’ says Professor Martin Prince, Co-Director of the Centre for Global Mental Health (CGMH), a collaboration between King’s Health Partners and the London School of Hygiene

the centre’s main function is to foster research and training in global mental health policy, prevention, treatment and care. ‘There is no other major kind of disease area that is so neglected in terms of specialists, or indeed anyone attending to people with mental health needs.’

Why does global mental health matter? After all, one might say that the developing world has far bigger health problems than depression – sewage-infected drinking water, drug-resistant malaria or the diarrhoeal

year to name but a few. The answer, says Professor Prince, lies in the centre’s motto – ‘No health without mental health.’ He points out that the long-term costs of untreated mental health conditions are vast and impinge upon a range of social issues, including employment, housing and hygiene.

‘There has been a major focus on the global health agenda in preventing mortality,’ says Professor Prince. ‘This is very reasonable, particularly in terms of child mortality and

economic terms it’s a loss in productivity for a country when young people die before they have even reached their economically productive age range. However, there is also

middle-income countries. With mental disorders come disability and lost function. Many disorders are chronic and lifelong, like autism. Others, like depression, are relapsing and remitting. There’s a huge societal burden associated with that.’

Professor Prince describes a typical case: a mother in a developing country whose son has schizophrenia. There is no health insurance, no free-at-the-point-of-delivery healthcare. She has no money to spare. He is unable to work and if she has to look after him, she can’t work either. So she waits until her son’s behaviour becomes uncontrollable. She manages, somehow, to get her son to the capital city, where all the country’s mental health services are clustered. He is admitted to the psychiatric hospital and spends several

months there. She manages to pay for his admission and his drug costs and is eventually sent home with her son and a bag of pills.

until they run out, and the cycle begins again. ‘So you get a pattern of catastrophic spending,’

way of dealing with this is to have a community service that is well stocked with medication. But that doesn’t exist.’

A GENUINE PUBLIC HEALTH CONCERNWhy has global mental health been so

editor of The Lancet, pointed out the ‘fragile – and utterly fragmented for the most disadvantaged’ nature of mental health services and called for coordinated action via the journal’s Global Mental Health series, supported by the CGMH. That same series included a sobering report on the considerable barriers to improving services in low- to middle-income countries. Lead author Dr Benedetto Saraceno of the World Health Organization cited the low priority of global mental health on the world health policy agendas, stigma leading to a lack of advocacy, the centralisation of services in capital cities and a simple lack of trained professionals.

In Ethiopia, these barriers seem almost

problems such as schizophrenia do not receive adequate treatment. ‘We know that mental disorders are as common as anywhere else in the world,’ he says. ‘But the care for people with mental disorders is completely abysmal.’

perceptions that Ethiopia is a starving country, clearly because of the memorable famines,’ she says. ‘It’s

to get funders to appreciate that funding mental health would be an important issue here. Mortality is very

high in people with severe mental illness. Their condition makes them vulnerable to diseases of neglect such as malnutrition and infection. But good treatment decreases mortality. So treatment of mental health has a physical health consequence.’

A brief overview of Dr Fekadu and Dr Hanlon’s current projects gives some idea of the scale of the country’s needs. They are researching the prevalence of mental health conditions among the city’s homeless

research projects, one funded by the National Institutes of Health (US) and the other by the Department for International Development, aimed at scaling up mental health care to be integrated into the primary healthcare system. Both projects are supported by the CGMH which, say Fekadu and Hanlon, has been

Every country has its own geographical, cultural and economic issues. But this kind of extensive research is starting to indicate the best ways to implement global health policy. Capacity-building is key. ‘Ethiopia has moved forward to the next stage of being more sustainable,’ says Dr Hanlon. ‘We’ve started a PhD programme, supported by the CGMH, at Addis Ababa University. We have seven PhD students now. There’s always a concern that when big international projects are set up it’s all one-way. I think the Ethiopian model has shown that that hasn’t happened and it has now moved to the next step – doing something within the country rather than sending people abroad. That will have a huge impact when our students start to graduate.’

Working in partnership with what’s already there is also essential. There is no ‘parachuting in’ of expertise. And it’s these collaborations, says Professor Prince, that are helping to produce the hard evidence needed to convince health ministers and international aid organisations to devote scarce resources to mental health services. ‘Advocacy alone – just shouting at people – isn’t actually going to lead to increased investment. It’s only by demonstrating that there are

Spiers is clearly a natural campaigner. As a PPE student at Oxford, he was a passionate supporter of the Campaign for

After Oxford, mindful of the adage that if you wish for peace, you must understand war, he went on to King’s to do a Master’s in War Studies under Barry Paskins, Michael Dockrill and Lawrence Freedman. Although he considered himself to be ‘the only peacenik’ on the course, he found plenty of fellow students happy to debate with him, often in the Lyceum pub on the Strand.

After King’s, Spiers returned to Oxford to do a DPhil under Sir Michael Howard – a mistake, he now realises, in spite of the eminence of his supervisor, a founder of King’s Department of War Studies. ‘I should have

‘We have always been focused on getting development in the right place, not stopping it,’ he says. ‘We have a growing population and a rail network that’s creaking at the seams. If we don’t get new rail capacity we’ll get more roads, which is more environmentally damaging.’ What’s more, it appears that ministers have actually listened to opinions expressed in the consultation process and made changes accordingly, he says. ‘It’s a bit of a triumph for the planning system.’

‘The heart is a wonderful pump. But that’s really all it is. It pumps blood through the lungs, where it gets oxygenated, and then pumps the oxygenated blood around the body.’

At the same time, Sir Terence English is quick to add, the heart is an awe-inspiring bit of evolution, never at rest from before birth

Retired from his successful career as a cardiac surgeon, Sir Terence knows the heart about as well as anyone. He was one of a small number of people who pioneered heart surgery

In a span of four decades all fear and superstition surrounding the heart were swept aside: doctors discovered the heart could tolerate surgery. This year marks the

A STREAK OF SHOWMANSHIPInnovative, demanding and intimidating,

Brock emerged as a leading cardiac surgeon shortly after World War II. Professor Cooper describes him as an introspective perfectionist ‘with a streak of showmanship’. He is recognised for several contributions to cardiac surgery, including advances in relieving mitral valve stenosis and inventing a mechanical valve dilator. His groundbreaking pulmonary valve operation saved lives by opening

This operation also ‘demonstrated the heart’s tolerance to direct surgical intervention’, writes Professor Cooper.

‘Sir Thomas Holmes Sellors actually did the operation about a week before, but Brock

‘People like Brock and Sellors were very competitive. And they were prima donnas in the operating room. There’s no doubt about it.’

Professor Cooper writes about Lord Brock’s brusque behaviour but in a sympathetic light. Like every physician pushing the boundaries

Lord Brock regularly saw patients die on the

dogs and other animals, mortality rates were high, which ‘must have given him many sleepless nights.’

By the time Professor Cooper arrived at Guy’s as a student, Lord Brock’s star was being eclipsed by younger colleagues, such as Ross, who were adept at open heart surgery, whereas Lord Brock was much more at ease with closed heart surgery. Still, students were in awe of the man. Professor Cooper remembers skipping lectures to watch him perform in the operating theatre.

He was a superb technician and never lost his cool in the operating room.’

While working at Guy’s, Ross developed a complex operation, still performed worldwide and known as the Ross procedure, in which the surgeon uses the patient’s own pulmonary valve to replace the diseased aortic valve, and then puts an aortic homograft from a deceased donor into the pulmonary position. This pioneering work, says Professor Cooper, stimulated research into heart valve replacement, including the use of pig valves.

SUCCESS IN THE UKLike Ross, Sir Terence grew up in South Africa. He was the son of a mining engineer

in what was then called Rhodesia. ‘I played poker, drank brandy and did all the sort of things you do when you’re growing up,’ he recalls. He started a course of study in mining engineering but in his third year he inherited

He assisted on two of Ross’s early homograft operations before moving to Papworth to establish its reputation as one of the UK’s premier cardiac programmes. He collaborated with Professor Sir Roy Calne, another Guy’s alumnus and Brock trainee who became one of the world’s leading experts in immunosuppression while performing liver transplants in Cambridge.

Sir Terence also found himself enmeshed in ethical and religious debates over the

heart for a successful heart transplant. For many, it was simply wrong to remove a beating heart from a body. Others argued that death

by the Medical Royal Colleges opted for the latter and laid out a series of simple tests that allowed a physician to determine whether a person was brain-dead or not. ‘The brain stem is at the base of the brain, and all the important connections are in the brain stem,’ says Sir Terence. ‘If the brain stem is destroyed you don’t breathe, and if you don’t breathe you die. So one of the tests for brain death is whether there’s spontaneous respiration if a person is
