Quality of Life Research, https://doi.org/10.1007/s11136-016-1484-2

Purpose. (1) to assess the responsiveness of the Short Form 36 Health Survey (SF-36) and Patient Generated Index (PGI) in people with knee pain who were given oral analgesics; and (2) to perform content analysis of the SF-36 and PGI aiming to identif...

Arthritis Research and Therapy, 18(1), Article 295. https://doi.org/10.1186/s13075-016-1186-8

Background Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) disease activity is often measured using the 28 joint Disease Activity Score (DAS28). We aimed to identify and independently verify subgroups of people with RA that may be discordant with respect to self-reported...

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 17(1), Article 337. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12891-016-1192-7

Background: We examined pain levels in 2 cohorts assembled from the British Society for Rheumatology Biologics Register (BSRBR), and investigated which factors predicted Bodily Pain scores and discontinuation of TNF?-inhibitors. Method: Data were re...
