Integrating case-finding and initial management for osteoarthritis, anxiety, and depression into primary care long-term condition reviews: results from the ENHANCE pilot trial. (2021)
Journal Article
Healey, E. L., Mallen, C. D., Chew-Graham, C. A., Nicholls, E., Lewis, M., Lawton, S. A., …Jinks, C. (2022). Integrating case-finding and initial management for osteoarthritis, anxiety, and depression into primary care long-term condition reviews: results from the ENHANCE pilot trial. Family Practice, 39(4), 592–602. https://doi.org/10.1093/fampra/cmab113

Background: Multimorbidity is increasingly the norm; however, primary care remains focused on single diseases. Osteoarthritis, anxiety, and depression are frequently comorbid with other long-term conditions (LTCs), but rarely prioritized by clinician...

Musculoskeletal case-mix adjustment in a UK primary/community care cohort: Testing musculoskeletal models to make recommendations in this setting. (2021)
Journal Article
Burgess, R., Lewis, M., & Hill, J. (2021). Musculoskeletal case-mix adjustment in a UK primary/community care cohort: Testing musculoskeletal models to make recommendations in this setting. Musculoskeletal Science and Practice, 56, 1-9. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.msksp.2021.102455

Benchmarking musculoskeletal (MSK) services is limited by the need to adjust for differences in patient characteristics/case-mix. Without this providers and services cannot be usefully compared. This paper investigates the predictive ability of case-...

Treatment targets of exercise for persistent non-specific low back pain: a consensus study (2021)
Journal Article
Lewis. (2021). Treatment targets of exercise for persistent non-specific low back pain: a consensus study. Physiotherapy, 78-86. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.physio.2021.03.005

Objectives
Despite several hundred previous randomised controlled trials (RCTs), the key treatment targets of exercise for persistent non-specific low back pain (NSLBP) remain unclear. This study aimed to generate consensus about the key treatment t... Read More about Treatment targets of exercise for persistent non-specific low back pain: a consensus study.

Refinement and validation of a tool for stratifying patients with musculoskeletal pain (2021)
Journal Article
Dunn, K. M., Campbell, P., Lewis, M., Hill, J. C., van der Windt, D. A., Afolabi, E., …Foster, N. E. (2021). Refinement and validation of a tool for stratifying patients with musculoskeletal pain. European Journal of Pain, 25(10), 2081-2093. https://doi.org/10.1002/ejp.1821

AbstractBackgroundPatients with musculoskeletal pain in different body sites share common prognostic factors. Using prognosis to stratify and treatment match can be clinically and cost‐effective. We aimed to refine and validate the Keele STarT MSK To... Read More about Refinement and validation of a tool for stratifying patients with musculoskeletal pain.

Stratified care versus usual care for management of patients presenting with sciatica in primary care (SCOPiC): a randomised controlled trial (2020)
Journal Article
Konstantinou, K., Lewis, M., Dunn, K., Hay, E., Van Der Windt, D., Artus, M., …Foster, N. (2020).

Background
Sciatica has a substantial impact on individuals and society. Stratified care has been shown to lead to better outcomes among patients with non-specific low back pain, but it has not been tested for sciatica. We aimed to investigate the c...
