Journal Article
Vaz, L. R., Jones, M. J., Szatkowski, L., Tata, L. J., Petrou, S., & Coleman, T. (2018). Estimating the healthcare costs of children born to pregnant smokers in England: cohort study using primary and secondary healthcare data. Addiction, 113(7), 1305-1316. https://doi.org/10.1111/add.14183

Background and aims: Little is known about the long term economic consequences of smoking during pregnancy. We estimated the association between smoking in pregnancy and the costs of delivering healthcare to infants and children in England, and inves...

Real-world uptake of a tailored, text message pregnancy smoking cessation programme (MiQuit) when offered online (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Emery, J., Coleman, T., Sutton, S., Cooper, S., Leonardi-Bee, J., Jones, M., & Naughton, F. (2016, August). Real-world uptake of a tailored, text message pregnancy smoking cessation programme (MiQuit) when offered online. Presented at EHPS/DHP Conference 2016

Background: Prenatal smoking is a major public health concern and uptake of NHS cessation support is low in this group. Text message-based self-help is a promising intervention for this population but little is known about its likely real-world uptak...

Multicentre, randomised controlled trial of a low-cost smoking cessation text message intervention for pregnant smokers (MiQuit) (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Naughton, F., Foster, K., Emery, J., Cooper, S., Sutton, S., Leonardi-Bee, J., Jones, M., Ussher, M., Whitemore, R., Leighton, M., Montgomery, A., Parrott, S., & Coleman, T. (2016, August). Multicentre, randomised controlled trial of a low-cost smoking cessation text message intervention for pregnant smokers (MiQuit). Presented at European Health Psychology Society and British Psychological Society Division of Health Psychology Conference 2016 (EHPS/DHP 2016)

Background: Text message cessation programmes have potential to change smoking behaviour during pregnancy but their effectiveness is unknown. This study aimed to estimate key parameters, including effectiveness and cost-effectiveness, for delivering...

Screening for atrial fibrillation: a cross-sectional survey of healthcare professionals in primary care (2016)
Journal Article
Taggar, J., Coleman, T., Lewis, S., & Jones, M. (2016). Screening for atrial fibrillation: a cross-sectional survey of healthcare professionals in primary care. PLoS ONE, 11(4), Article e0152086. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0152086

Introduction:
Screening for atrial fibrillation (AF) in primary care has been recommended; however, the views of healthcare professionals (HCPs) are not known. This study aimed to determine the opinions of HCP about the feasibility of implementing s...

Accuracy of methods for detecting an irregular pulse and suspected atrial fibrillation: a systematic review and meta-analysis (2015)
Journal Article

European Journal of Preventive Cardiology, 23(12), 1330-1338. https://doi.org/10.1177/2047487315611347

Background: Pulse palpation has been recommended as the first step of screening to detect atrial fibrillation. We aimed to determine and compare the accuracy of different methods for detecting pulse irregularities caused by atrial fibrillation.

Accuracy of methods for diagnosing atrial fibrillation using 12-lead ECG: a systematic review and meta-analysis (2015)
Journal Article
Taggar, J. S., Coleman, T., Lewis, S., Heneghan, C., & Jones, M. (2015). Accuracy of methods for diagnosing atrial fibrillation using 12-lead ECG: a systematic review and meta-analysis. International Journal of Cardiology, 184, 175-183. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijcard.2015.02.014

Background: Screening for atrial fibrillation (AF) using 12-lead-electrocardiograms (ECGs) has been recommended; however, the best method for interpreting ECGs to diagnose AF is not known. We compared accuracy of methods for diagnosing AF from ECGs.... Read More about Accuracy of methods for diagnosing atrial fibrillation using 12-lead ECG: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
