Journal Article
Jenkins, V., Solis-Trapala, I., Payne, H., Mason, M., Fallowfield, L., May, S., …Catt, S. (2019). Treatment Experiences, Information Needs, Pain and Quality of Life in Men with Metastatic Castrate-resistant Prostate Cancer: Results from the EXTREQOL Study. Clinical Oncology, 31(2), 99-107. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.clon.2018.11.001

Aims
Delaying progression, ameliorating symptoms and maintaining quality of life (QoL) are primary aims of treatment for metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Real-world rather than clinical trial data about symptoms and side-effect...

The frequency of testing for glycated haemoglobin, HbA1c, is linked to the probability of achieving target levels in patients with suboptimally controlled diabetes mellitus. (2018)
Journal Article
Duff, C. J., Solis-Trapala, I., Driskell, O. J., Holland, D., Wright, H., Waldron, J. L., …Fryer, A. A. (2018). The frequency of testing for glycated haemoglobin, HbA1c, is linked to the probability of achieving target levels in patients with suboptimally controlled diabetes mellitus. Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine, https://doi.org/10.1515/cclm-2018-0503

Introduction:
We previously showed, in patients with diabetes, that >50% of monitoring tests for glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) are outside recommended intervals and that this is linked to diabetes control. Here, we examined the impact of tests/year on...

Greater improvements in diet quality among overweight participants following a group-based commercial weight loss programme than those receiving support to lose weight in primary care (2018)
Journal Article
Solis-Trapala. (2018). Greater improvements in diet quality among overweight participants following a group-based commercial weight loss programme than those receiving support to lose weight in primary care. Nutrition Journal, https://doi.org/10.1186/s12937-018-0370-x

Background
Relatively little is known about dietary changes and their relationships with weight change during behavioural weight loss interventions. In a secondary analysis of data from a multicentre RCT, we investigated whether greater improvements...

Comorbidity health pathways in heart failure patients: A sequences-of-regressions analysis using cross-sectional data from 10,575 patients in the Swedish Heart Failure Registry (2018)
Journal Article
Mamas, & Solis-Trapala. (2018). Comorbidity health pathways in heart failure patients: A sequences-of-regressions analysis using cross-sectional data from 10,575 patients in the Swedish Heart Failure Registry. PLoS Medicine, https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pmed.1002540

Background
Optimally treated heart failure (HF) patients often have persisting symptoms and poor health-related quality of life. Comorbidities are common, but little is known about their impact on these factors, and guideline-driven HF care remains...
