A Novel Approach to Identifying the Spinal Accessory Nerve in Surgical Neck Dissection (2018)
Journal Article
(2018). A Novel Approach to Identifying the Spinal Accessory Nerve in Surgical Neck Dissection. Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 300 - 302. https://doi.org/10.1177/0194599818766057

Intraoperative identification of the spinal accessory nerve (SAN) is key in reducing nerve injury. This study aims to explore the surgical anatomy of the SAN and 2 landmarks for its identification—the sternocleidomastoid branch of the occipital arter...

Increasing socio-economic gap between the young and old: temporal trends in health and overall deprivation in England by age, sex, urbanity and ethnicity, 2004 to 2015 (2018)
Journal Article
Mamas. (2018). Increasing socio-economic gap between the young and old: temporal trends in health and overall deprivation in England by age, sex, urbanity and ethnicity, 2004 to 2015. Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health, 636-644. https://doi.org/10.1136/jech-2017-209895

Background: At a low geographical level, little is known about the associations between population characteristics and deprivation, and their trends, which would be directly affected by the house market, labour pressures and government policies. We d... Read More about Increasing socio-economic gap between the young and old: temporal trends in health and overall deprivation in England by age, sex, urbanity and ethnicity, 2004 to 2015.

Factors associated with polypharmacy in primary care: a cross-sectional analysis of data from The English Longitudinal Study of Ageing (ELSA). (2018)

Bioimpedance-defined overhydration predicts survival in end stage kidney failure (ESKF): systematic review and subgroup meta-analysis. (2018)
Journal Article
Tabinor, M., Elphick, E., Dudson, M., Shing Kwok, C., Lambie, M., & Davies, S. J. (2018). Bioimpedance-defined overhydration predicts survival in end stage kidney failure (ESKF): systematic review and subgroup meta-analysis. Scientific reports, 8, Article 4441. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-018-21226-y

Both overhydration and comorbidity predict mortality in end-stage kidney failure (ESKF) but it is not clear whether these are independent of one another. We undertook a systematic review of studies reporting outcomes in adult dialysis patients in whi...
