Exploring cardiovascular risk and outcomes in primary care consulters for osteoarthritis using longitudinal electronic primary care data (2023)
Thesis
Huang, X. (2023). Exploring cardiovascular risk and outcomes in primary care consulters for osteoarthritis using longitudinal electronic primary care data. (Thesis). Keele University

For adults aged 45 and over in the United Kingdom (UK), osteoarthritis is a common reason for consultation with primary care. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a common comorbidity with osteoarthritis; two in five people with osteoarthritis also have C...

Investigating health and work participation in later working life: multi-state modelling of Healthy Working Life Expectancy using national population datasets (2021)
Thesis
Parker, M. E. (2021). Investigating health and work participation in later working life: multi-state modelling of Healthy Working Life Expectancy using national population datasets. (Thesis). Keele University

Introduction Retirement ages are rising in many countries due to population ageing and increasing life expectancy. It is unclear whether people in later working life (age =50) are able to work for longer due to health conditions and a lack of job op...

The association between osteoarthritis and invasive management strategies and clinical outcomes following acute myocardial infarction in electronic health record data (2020)
Thesis
Parmar, S. S. (2020). The association between osteoarthritis and invasive management strategies and clinical outcomes following acute myocardial infarction in electronic health record data. (Thesis). Keele University

Background The association between osteoarthritis (OA) and acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is unclear, as are the outcomes of people with OA diagnosed with AMI. This study aimed to describe the annual prevalence of OA among AMI patients and descri...

Osteoarthritis and premature mortality: pathways for hand, hip, knee and foot osteoarthritis (2019)
Thesis
Seale, B. (2019). Osteoarthritis and premature mortality: pathways for hand, hip, knee and foot osteoarthritis. (Thesis). Keele University. Retrieved from https://keele-repository.worktribe.com/output/417802

Purpose: Evidence of an association between osteoarthritis (OA) and mortality is conflicting; differences in definitions and anatomical sites explain some of the discordance. The high frequency and increasing prevalence of OA highlights the need to... Read More about Osteoarthritis and premature mortality: pathways for hand, hip, knee and foot osteoarthritis.

The role of deprivation and quality of care on healthy ageing in older people with musculoskeletal pain: a prospective study (2019)
Thesis
Rhys, G. C. (2019). The role of deprivation and quality of care on healthy ageing in older people with musculoskeletal pain: a prospective study. (Thesis). Keele University. Retrieved from https://keele-repository.worktribe.com/output/417818

Background: Musculoskeletal pain is common in older adults and is associated with a decrease in the Healthy Ageing Index (HAI) (a validated composite ageing measure). Deprivation measures were not included in the HAI. The literature advocates includi...

The role of social participation in maintaining mental and physical health in older people with musculoskeletal pain (2019)
Thesis
Baker, S. (2019). The role of social participation in maintaining mental and physical health in older people with musculoskeletal pain. (Thesis). Keele University. Retrieved from https://keele-repository.worktribe.com/output/413137

Background Identifying factors that distinguish between older people with chronic musculoskeletal pain who maintain good mental and physical health, and those who do not, would inform practical programmes for promoting future physical and mental hea...
