Estimating disease burden using national linked electronic health records: a study using an English population-based cohort. (2023)
Journal Article

Background: Electronic health records (EHRs) have the potential to be used to produce detailed disease burden estimates. In this study we created disease estimates using national EHR for three high burden conditions, compared estimates between linked...

Exploring the Added Value of Video-Stimulated Recall in Researching the Primary Care Doctor-Patient Consultation: A Process Evaluation (2017)
Journal Article

Background: Video-stimulated recall (VSR) is a method whereby researchers show research participants a video of their own behavior to prompt and enhance their recall and interpretation after the event, for example, in a postconsultation interview. T... Read More about Exploring the Added Value of Video-Stimulated Recall in Researching the Primary Care Doctor-Patient Consultation: A Process Evaluation.

The effects of implementing a point-of-care electronic template to prompt routine anxiety and depression screening in patients consulting for osteoarthritis (the Primary Care Osteoarthritis Trial): A cluster randomised trial in primary care (2017)
Journal Article

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to evaluate whether prompting general practitioners (GPs) to routinely assess and manage anxiety and depression in patients consulting with osteoarthritis (OA) improves pain outcomes. METHODS AND FINDINGS: We conducted a...

The Identity Crisis of Osteoarthritis in General Practice: A Qualitative Study Using Video-Stimulated Recall (2015)
Journal Article

PURPOSE Patients and doctors report marked disenchantment with primary care consultation experiences relating to osteoarthritis. This study aimed to observe and analyze interactions between general practitioners (GPs) and patients presenting with ost...

Exploring how pain leads to productivity loss in primary care consulters for osteoarthritis: a prospective cohort study (2015)
Journal Article

OBJECTIVE: Osteoarthritis pain has become a leading cause of decreased productivity and work disability in older workers, a major concern in primary care. How osteoarthritis pain leads to decreased productivity at work is unclear; the aim of this stu...

The science of clinical practice: disease diagnosis or patient prognosis? Evidence about "what is likely to happen" should shape clinical practice (2015)
Journal Article

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...

Journal Article

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

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...

Red blood cell transfusion and mortality in trauma patients: risk-stratified analysis of an observational study (2014)
Journal Article

BACKGROUND: Haemorrhage is a common cause of death in trauma patients. Although transfusions are extensively used in the care of bleeding trauma patients, there is uncertainty about the balance of risks and benefits and how this balance depends on th...
