Where does it hurt? Small area estimates and inequality in the prevalence of chronic pain (2023)
Journal Article
Lynch, M., Peat, G., Jordan, K., Yu, D., & Wilkie, R. (2023). Where does it hurt? Small area estimates and inequality in the prevalence of chronic pain. European Journal of Pain, https://doi.org/10.1002/ejp.2148

Background Chronic pain affects up to half of UK adults, impacting quality of life and demand on local health services. Whilst local health planning is currently based on subnational prevalence estimates, associations between pain and sociodemograph... Read More about Where does it hurt?

Estimating disease burden using national linked electronic health records: a study using an English population-based cohort. (2023)
Journal Article
Aldridge, R. W., Evans, H. E., Yavlinsky, A., Moayyeri, A., Bhaskaran, K., Mathur, R., …Hemingway, H. (2023). Estimating disease burden using national linked electronic health records: a study using an English population-based cohort. Wellcome Open Research,

Background: Electronic health records (EHRs) have the potential to be used to produce detailed disease burden estimates. In this study we created disease estimates using national EHR for three high burden conditions, compared estimates between linked...

BACKGROUND: Most adults presenting in primary care with chest pain symptoms will not receive a diagnosis ("unattributed" chest pain) but are at increased risk of cardiovascular events. AIM: To assess within patients with unattributed chest pain, risk...

Musculoskeletal pain and its impact on prognosis following acute coronary syndrome or stroke: A linked electronic health record cohort study (2023)
Journal Article
Mason, K. J., Jordan, K. P., Heron, N., Edwards, J. J., Bailey, J., Achana, F. A., …Marshall, M. (2023).

Musculoskeletal Care, 21(3), 749-762. https://doi.org/10.1002/msc.1748

OBJECTIVE: Musculoskeletal painful conditions are a risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD), but less is known about whether musculoskeletal pain also worsens prognosis from CVD. The objective was to determine whether patients with musculoskelet...
