Patient‐reported outcomes, postoperative pain and pain relief after day‐case surgery (POPPY): baseline data from day surgery practice in the UK

open access: yesAnaesthesia, EarlyView.
Summary Introduction Most patients undergoing elective surgery in the UK are discharged from hospital on the same day. Despite this, there is a lack of UK patient‐centred outcome measures relating to quality of recovery, pain and analgesic use. The POPPY study was a UK‐wide prospective, observational study measuring short‐ and longer‐term patient ...

Patient‐reported outcomes, postoperative pain and pain relief after day‐case surgery (POPPY): chronic post‐surgical pain prevalence and associations*

open access: yesAnaesthesia, EarlyView.
Summary Introduction Day‐case surgical activity is increasing in the UK yet there is a lack of data on the prevalence of chronic post‐surgical pain in this population. This study uses data from the POPPY study to estimate the prevalence of chronic post‐surgical pain after day‐case surgery, its relationship with quality of life and also explores ...

Variable species establishment in response to microhabitat indicates different likelihoods of climate‐driven range shifts

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Climate change is causing geographic range shifts globally, and understanding the factors that influence species' range expansions is crucial for predicting future biodiversity changes. A common, yet untested, assumption in forecasting approaches is that species will shift beyond current range edges into new habitats as they become macroclimatically ...

Competitive interactions modify the direct effects of climate

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
As the climate is changing, species respond by changing their distributions and abundances. The effects of climate are not only direct, but also occur via changes in biotic interactions, such as competition. Yet, the role of competition in mediating the effects of climate is still largely unclear.
