The effect of variation in interpretation of the La Trobe radiographic foot atlas on the prevalence of foot osteoarthritis in older women: the Chingford general population cohort. (2017)
Journal Article
McQueen, P., Gates, L., Marshall, M., Doherty, M., Arden, N., & Bowen, C. (in press). The effect of variation in interpretation of the La Trobe radiographic foot atlas on the prevalence of foot osteoarthritis in older women: the Chingford general population cohort. Journal of Foot and Ankle Research, 10, Article 54. https://doi.org/10.1186/s13047-017-0239-9

Background: The prevalence of foot osteoarthritis (OA) is much less understood than hip, knee and hand OA. The foot is anatomically complex and different researchers have investigated different joints with lack of methodological standardisation acros...

The long-term impact of childhood wartime trauma on anxiety in later life: an exploration of the literature (2017)
Journal Article
(2017). The long-term impact of childhood wartime trauma on anxiety in later life: an exploration of the literature. Mental Health Practice, https://doi.org/10.7748/mhp.2017.e1215

At any point in time up to 10% of people over the age of 65 experience symptoms of anxiety. Yet the effects of anxiety in the older population are under-researched. Paternal separation in childhood has been cited as a factor for psychological well-be...

Vegas et al. IEEE Trans Softw Eng 42(2):120:135 (2016) raised concerns about the use of AB/BA crossover designs in empirical software engineering studies. This paper addresses issues related to calculating standardized effect sizes and their variance... Read More about Effect sizes and their variance for AB/BA crossover design studies.

Applying quantitative bias analysis to estimate the plausible effects of selection bias in a cluster randomised controlled trial: secondary analysis of the Primary care Osteoarthritis Screening Trial (POST). (2017)
Journal Article
Barnett, L., Mallen, C., Lewis, A., & Peat, G. (2017). Applying quantitative bias analysis to estimate the plausible effects of selection bias in a cluster randomised controlled trial: secondary analysis of the Primary care Osteoarthritis Screening Trial (POST). Trials, 18, 585 - ?. https://doi.org/10.1186/s13063-017-2329-1

BACKGROUND: Selection bias is a concern when designing cluster randomised controlled trials (c-RCT). Despite addressing potential issues at the design stage, bias cannot always be eradicated from a trial design. The application of bias analysis prese...
