Temporal species stability underpins the link between biodiversity and human health (2025)
Journal Article
Xu, Q., Qu, B., Zhao, P., Clement, S., Shi, Y., Li, L., Jordan, K. P., & Chen, Y. (2025). Temporal species stability underpins the link between biodiversity and human health. Environmental Research, 278(1 August 2025), Article 121728. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.envres.2025.121728

Biodiversity is known to impact human health, but the complex relationships between species diversity and health outcomes is poorly understood. Measuring the temporal dissimilarity in species composition can be leveraged to understand the stability o...

Regional concentrations of heavy metals in surface soils and risk of body pain in elderly residential population: a national cohort study in China (2025)
Journal Article
Qu, B., Hu, B., Rong, R., Wu, L., Shi, X., Ma, Z. F., Yuan, L., Goodacre, R., Jordan, K. P., & Chen, Y. (2025). Regional concentrations of heavy metals in surface soils and risk of body pain in elderly residential population: a national cohort study in China. BMC Public Health, 25(1), Article 1571. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12889-025-22638-y

Background: The accumulation of heavy metals in surface soil raises significant environmental and public health concerns around the world. This study aimed to examine the relationship between exposure to heavy metals in surface soil and the risk of p...

Estimating the Cost and Carbon Output of Musculoskeletal Primary Care Management Decisions: A Retrospective Analysis of Electronic Health Records (2025)
Journal Article
Braybrooke, A., Pegg, M., Naylor, R., Bailey, J., Scott, J., Burgess, R., Yu, D., Wathall, S., Jordan, K. P., Malcolm, R., Holmes, H., Peat, G., Banerjee, A., & Hill, J. C. (in press). Estimating the Cost and Carbon Output of Musculoskeletal Primary Care Management Decisions: A Retrospective Analysis of Electronic Health Records. The International Journal of Health Planning and Management, https://doi.org/10.1002/hpm.3919

Background: Healthcare accounts for up to 5% of worldwide carbon emissions and costs global economies an estimated $9 trillion annually. Primary care accounts for up to one‐fifth of all NHS carbon emissions, with musculoskeletal (MSK) pain accounting...

An application of matching algorithms to generalize small-area estimates of chronic pain prevalence to neighbourhoods across England (2025)
Journal Article
Quinn, L., Yu, D., Lynch, M., P Jordan, K., Wilkie, R., & Peat, G. (2025). An application of matching algorithms to generalize small-area estimates of chronic pain prevalence to neighbourhoods across England. Journal of Public Health, 1-9. https://doi.org/10.1093/pubmed/fdaf002

Background
Local decision-makers lack granular data on the prevalence of chronic pain in their populations. We applied matching methods to generalize estimates from one local survey in England to other neighborhoods across the country with a similar...
