PURPOSE: To investigate agreement and reliability among clinicians when diagnosing low back-related leg pain (LBLP) in primary care consulters. METHODS: Thirty-six patients were assessed by one of six physiotherapists and diagnosed as having either l... Read More about Reliability among clinicians diagnosing low back-related leg pain..

Structural Equation Modelling of the moderation effect of health locus of control on the pain-depression pathway (2015)
Presentation / Conference
Hope, K., Dunn, K. M., & Campbell, P. (2015, September). Structural Equation Modelling of the moderation effect of health locus of control on the pain-depression pathway. Poster presented at 9th Congress of the European Pain Federation (EFIC), Vienna, Austria

Background and aims Low back pain (LBP) is common, and is a major health concern. Psychological consequences of LBP, such as depression, are significant barriers to recovery, but mechanisms for the development of depression are less well understood....

Background: Musculoskeletal pain conditions are common and create substantial burden for the individual and society. While research has shown concordance between couples for risk of some diseases, e.g. heart disease or diabetes, little information is...

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...
