Average symptom trajectories following incident radiographic knee osteoarthritis: data from the Osteoarthritis Initiative (2016)
Journal Article
Whittle, R., Jordan, K. P., Thomas, E., & Peat, G. (2016). Average symptom trajectories following incident radiographic knee osteoarthritis: data from the Osteoarthritis Initiative. RMD Open, https://doi.org/10.1136/rmdopen-2016-000281

Introduction Previous research has identified the existence of a prodromal phase of symptom worsening beginning on average 2–3 years prior to the first appearance of radiographic knee osteoarthritis (OA). The current study extends these observations... Read More about Average symptom trajectories following incident radiographic knee osteoarthritis: data from the Osteoarthritis Initiative.

Trends in long-term opioid prescribing in primary care patients with musculoskeletal conditions: an observational database study (2016)
Journal Article
Bedson, J., Chen, Y., Hayward, R. A., Ashworth, J., Walters, K., Dunn, K. M., & Jordan, K. P. (2016). Trends in long-term opioid prescribing in primary care patients with musculoskeletal conditions: an observational database study. PAIN, 157(7), 1525 -1531. https://doi.org/10.1097/j.pain.0000000000000557

Long-term opioids may benefit patients with chronic pain but have also been linked to harmful outcomes. In the United Kingdom, the predominant source of opioids is primary care prescription. The objective was to examine changes in the incidence, leng...

Trends in Prescribing of Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs in Primary Care in Patients with and without Cardiovascular Disease: An Observational Database Study (2016)
Journal Article
Chen, Y., Bedson, J., Hayward, R., & Jordan, K. (2016). Trends in Prescribing of Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs in Primary Care in Patients with and without Cardiovascular Disease: An Observational Database Study. Rheumatology, 55(S1), i76. https://doi.org/10.1093/rheumatology/kew132.007

Background Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are commonly used to treat pain, but have potentially serious side effects when prescribed in patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD). The MHRA and NICE issued directives between 2004 and 2...

Patient-reported quality indicators for osteoarthritis: a patient and public generated self-report measure for primary care (2016)
Journal Article
Blackburn, S., Higginbottom, A., Taylor, R., Bird, J., Østerås, N., Birger Hagen, K., …Dziedzic, K. (2016). Patient-reported quality indicators for osteoarthritis: a patient and public generated self-report measure for primary care. Research Involvement and Engagement, 2, Article 5. https://doi.org/10.1186/s40900-016-0019-x

Background

People with osteoarthritis (OA) desire high quality care, support and information about OA. However, the quality of care for people with OA in general practice is not routinely collected. Quality Indicators (QI) can be used to benefit p... Read More about Patient-reported quality indicators for osteoarthritis: a patient and public generated self-report measure for primary care.

Weighted cumulative exposure models helped identify an association between early knee-pain consultations and future knee OA diagnosis (2016)
Journal Article
Yu, D., Peat, G., Bedson, J., Edwards, J. J., Turkiewicz, A., & Jordan, K. P. (2016). Weighted cumulative exposure models helped identify an association between early knee-pain consultations and future knee OA diagnosis. Journal of Clinical Epidemiology, 218-228. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jclinepi.2016.02.025

Objective
To establish the association between prior knee-pain consultations and early diagnosis of knee osteoarthritis (OA) by weighted cumulative exposure (WCE) models.

Study Design and Setting
Data were from an electronic health care record (... Read More about Weighted cumulative exposure models helped identify an association between early knee-pain consultations and future knee OA diagnosis.
