Prodromal symptoms in knee osteoarthritis: a nested case–control study using data from the Osteoarthritis Initiative (2015)
Journal Article
Case, R., Thomas, E., Clarke, E., & Peat, G. (2015). Prodromal symptoms in knee osteoarthritis: a nested case–control study using data from the Osteoarthritis Initiative. Osteoarthritis and Cartilage, 23(7), 1083-1089. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.joca.2014.12.026

Objective In order to gain a better understanding of the timing of emergent symptoms of osteoarthritis, we sought to investigate the existence, duration and nature of a prodromal symptomatic phase preceding incident radiographic knee osteoarthritis...

The science of clinical practice: disease diagnosis or patient prognosis? Evidence about "what is likely to happen" should shape clinical practice (2015)
Journal Article
Croft, P., Altman, D. G., Deeks, J. J., Dunn, K. M., Hay, A. D., Hemingway, H., …Timmis, A. (2015). The science of clinical practice: disease diagnosis or patient prognosis? Evidence about "what is likely to happen" should shape clinical practice. BMC Medicine, 20. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12916-014-0265-4

BACKGROUND: Diagnosis is the traditional basis for decision-making in clinical practice. Evidence is often lacking about future benefits and harms of these decisions for patients diagnosed with and without disease. We propose that a model of clinical...

Pain trajectory groups in persons with, or at high risk of, knee osteoarthritis: findings from the Knee Clinical Assessment Study and the Osteoarthritis Initiative (2014)
Journal Article
Nicholls, E., Thomas, E., van der Windt, D., Croft, P., & Peat, G. (2014). Pain trajectory groups in persons with, or at high risk of, knee osteoarthritis: findings from the Knee Clinical Assessment Study and the Osteoarthritis Initiative. Osteoarthritis and Cartilage, 22(12), 2041 - 2050. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.joca.2014.09.026

OBJECTIVE: The authors aimed to characterize distinct trajectories of knee pain in adults who had, or were at high risk of, knee osteoarthritis using data from two population-based cohorts. METHOD: Latent class growth analysis was applied to measures...

Improving the transparency of prognosis research: the role of reporting, data sharing, registration, and protocols (2014)
Journal Article
Peat, G., Riley, R. D., Croft, P., Morley, K. I., Kyzas, P. A., Moons, K. G., …van der Windt, D. (2014). Improving the transparency of prognosis research: the role of reporting, data sharing, registration, and protocols. PLoS Medicine, e1001671 -?. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pmed.1001671

Prognosis research is concerned with predicting outcomes to make health care more effective. It has a crucial role to play in clinical and policy decision-making. The quality of much prognosis research is poor, evidenced by incomplete reporting, poor...

Discussing prognosis with older people with musculoskeletal pain: a cross-sectional study in general practice (2009)
Journal Article
David Mallen, C., & Peat, G. (2009). Discussing prognosis with older people with musculoskeletal pain: a cross-sectional study in general practice. BMC Family Practice, 50 -?. https://doi.org/10.1186/1471-2296-10-50

Prognosis has been described as an important but neglected branch of clinical science. While patients' views have been sought in the context of life-threatening illness, similar research is lacking for patients presenting with common, non-life-threat...
