Background Despite concerns about recruitment to UK general practice, there has been no concerted educational intervention to address them.

Aim To better understand how medical students’ perceptions of their experiences of their undergraduate curr... Read More about Influences on students' career decisions concerning general practice: a focus group study.

Improving the quality of written feedback using written feedback (2016)
Journal Article
(2016). Improving the quality of written feedback using written feedback. Education for Primary Care, 16-22

Background: Educational feedback is amongst the most powerful of all learning interventions. Research questions: (1) Can we measure the quality of written educational feedback with acceptable metrics? (2) Based on such a measure, does a quality impro...

Journal Article
Hill, J., Kang, S., Benedetto, E., Myers, H., Blackburn, S., Smith, S., …Price, A. (2016). Development and initial cohort validation of the Arthritis Research UK Musculoskeletal Health Questionnaire (MSK-HQ) for use across musculoskeletal care pathways. BMJ Open, 6(8), Article e012331. https://doi.org/10.1136/bmjopen-2016-012331

OBJECTIVES: Current musculoskeletal outcome tools are fragmented across different healthcare settings and conditions. Our objectives were to develop and validate a single musculoskeletal outcome measure for use throughout the pathway and patients wit...

The epidemiology of teaching and training general practices in England (2016)
Journal Article
Rees. (2016). The epidemiology of teaching and training general practices in England. Education for Primary Care, 462-470. https://doi.org/10.1080/14739879.2016.1208542

There is no national picture of teaching and training practices or the communities they serve. We aimed to describe the association between general practices’ engagement with education and their characteristics, locality and patients’ health-status a...

Epigenomic changes associated with high-grade non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (2016)
Thesis
Kitchen, M. O. (2016). Epigenomic changes associated with high-grade non-muscle invasive bladder cancer. (Thesis). Keele University. Retrieved from https://keele-repository.worktribe.com/output/409152

The development and progression of high-grade non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) results from a complex interplay of environmental and heritable risk factors, including those that impact upon genetic and epigenetic pathways. Recent studies ha... Read More about Epigenomic changes associated with high-grade non-muscle invasive bladder cancer.

Teaching Undergraduate Students in Rural Practices; an evaluation of a new rural campus in England (2016)
Journal Article
(2016). Teaching Undergraduate Students in Rural Practices; an evaluation of a new rural campus in England. Rural and Remote Health, 3694

Introduction: One approach to facilitating student interactions with patient pathways at Keele University School of Medicine, England, is the placement of medical students for 25% of their clinical placement time in general practices. The largest com... Read More about Teaching Undergraduate Students in Rural Practices; an evaluation of a new rural campus in England.

Do quality indicators for general practice teaching practices predict good outcomes for students? (2016)
Journal Article
Bartlett, M., Potts, J., & McKinley, R. (2016). Do quality indicators for general practice teaching practices predict good outcomes for students?. Education for Primary Care, 271-279. https://doi.org/10.1080/14739879.2016.1175913

Keele medical students spend 113 days in general practices over our five-year programme. We collect practice data thought to indicate good quality teaching. We explored the relationships between these data and two outcomes for students; Objective Str...

Predicted optimum ambient temperatures for broiler chickens to dissipate metabolic heat do not affect performance or improve breast muscle quality (2016)
Journal Article
Beard, P. (2016). Predicted optimum ambient temperatures for broiler chickens to dissipate metabolic heat do not affect performance or improve breast muscle quality. British Poultry Science, 134 - 141. https://doi.org/10.1080/00071668.2015.1124067

An experiment was conducted to test the hypothesis that muscle damage in fast-growing broiler chickens is associated with an ambient temperature that does not permit the birds to lose metabolic heat resulting in physiological heat stress and a reduct...
