Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) have emerged as a major platform for the formulation of magnetic vectors for nonviral gene delivery. Notably the application of "magnetofection" strategies (use of magnetic fields to increase MNP–cell interactions) can s...

Journal Article
Fullwood, C., Kennedy, A., Rogers, A., Eden, M., Gardner, C., Protheroe, J., & Reeves, D. (2013). Patients’ Experiences of Shared Decision Making in Primary Care Practices in the United Kingdom. Medical Decision Making, 33(1), 26-36. https://doi.org/10.1177/0272989x12464825

Background. Shared decision making (SDM) and patient self-management support are key components of US and UK policy for chronic disease management, whereby SDM is seen as enhancing physician-patient negotiation around self-management. The WISE trial... Read More about Patients’ Experiences of Shared Decision Making in Primary Care Practices in the United Kingdom.

Agreement of self-reported items and clinically assessed nerve root involvement (or sciatica) in a primary care setting. (2012)

INTRODUCTION: We analysed baseline measures from an RCT involving adults with low back pain (LBP) with or without referred leg pain, to identify self-report items that best identified clinically determined nerve root involvement (sciatica). METHODS:... Read More about Agreement of self-reported items and clinically assessed nerve root involvement (or sciatica) in a primary care setting..

Exploring the cost-utility of stratified primary care management for low back pain compared with current best practice within risk-defined subgroups. (2012)
Journal Article
Hill, & Hay. (2012). Exploring the cost-utility of stratified primary care management for low back pain compared with current best practice within risk-defined subgroups. Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases, 1796 - 1802

OBJECTIVES: Stratified management for low back pain according to patients' prognosis and matched care pathways has been shown to be an effective treatment approach in primary care. The aim of this within-trial study was to determine the economic impl...

Concentration–Response Function for Ozone and Daily Mortality: Results from Five Urban and Five Rural U.K. Populations (2012)
Journal Article
Atkinson, R. W., Yu, D., Armstrong, B. G., Pattenden, S., Wilkinson, P., Doherty, R. M., …Anderson, H. R. (2012). Concentration–Response Function for Ozone and Daily Mortality: Results from Five Urban and Five Rural U.K. Populations. Environmental Health Perspectives, 120(10),

Background: Short-term exposure to ozone has been associated with increased daily mortality. The shape of the concentration–response relationship—and, in particular, if there is a threshold—is critical for estimating public health impacts. Objecti...

Antiepileptic drugs and the fetal epigenome (2012)
Journal Article
Emes, R. D., Clifford, H., Haworth, K. E., Farrell, W. E., Fryer, A. A., Carroll, W. D., …KM, I. (2013). Antiepileptic drugs and the fetal epigenome. Epilepsia, 54(1), e16-e19. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1528-1167.2012.03673.x

Antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) can lower maternal folate and increase maternal homocysteine levels, which are known to affect the methyl cycle and hence DNA methylation levels. The influence of in utero exposure to AEDs on fetal DNA methylation was inves... Read More about Antiepileptic drugs and the fetal epigenome.

Managing demand for laboratory tests: a laboratory toolkit (2012)

Does life course socio-economic position influence chronic disabling pain in older adults? A general population study (2012)
Journal Article
Lacey, R. J., Belcher, J., & Croft, P. R. (2013). Does life course socio-economic position influence chronic disabling pain in older adults? A general population study. European Journal of Public Health, 23(4), 534 - 540. https://doi.org/10.1093/eurpub/cks056

Background Chronic pain is the leading cause of disability in developed countries. Prevalence is linked with socio-economic position (SEP), but little is known about the influence of SEP on disabling pain over the life course. We have investigated t...

European Journal of Pain, 17(3), 434 -443. https://doi.org/10.1002/j.1532-2149.2012.00189.x

BACKGROUND: Numerous national guidelines have been issued to assist general practitioners' safe analgesic prescribing. Their effectiveness is unclear. The objective of this study was to examine trends in general practitioners' prescribing behaviour i...
