The changing shape of hand trauma: an analysis of Hospital Episode Statistics in England [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Hand Surgery (European Volume), 2019
Hospital Episode Statistics (HES) include freely accessible records of all hospital episodes in England. We analysed HES from 1998–1999 to 2014–2015 for diagnoses of hand fractures, tendon injuries, nerve injuries, blood vessel injuries, traumatic amputations and nail bed injuries. Population data were used to calculate the incidence.

Differential Item Functioning on the Patient Health Questionnaire‐8 by Disease Subtype, Language, Sex, and Age among People with Systemic Sclerosis: A Scleroderma Patient‐centered Intervention Network Cohort Study

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective Somatic items used in depression assessments can potentially overlap with symptoms related to physical illness, including systemic sclerosis (SSc). No studies have looked at whether somatic depression items may be influenced by diffuse versus limited SSc disease subtypes, which are associated with varying degrees of symptom presentation.

A power law distribution in patients' lengths of stay in hospital [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The distribution of patients' lengths of stay in English hospitals is measured by using routinely collected data from 11 years. It is found to be well approximated by a power law distribution spanning over more than 3 decades.

Use of routinely collected Hospital Episode Statistics to describe alcohol-related frequent attenders to hospitals [PDF]

open access: yesThe Lancet, 2017
Abstract Background Excess alcohol consumption is a growing public health problem, causing 5·3% of deaths worldwide in those aged under 60 years. In the UK, alcohol use costs the National Health Service (NHS) £3·5 billion annually, 80% of which is used for hospital-based care.

Multi‐Site Transfer Classification of Major Depressive Disorder: An fMRI Study in 3335 Subjects

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The study proposes graph convolution network with sparse pooling to learn the hierarchical features of brain graph for MDD classification. Experiment is done on multi‐site fMRI samples (3335 subjects, the largest functional dataset of MDD to date) and transfer learning is applied, achieving an average accuracy of 70.14%.

IL‐4/STAT6‐signaling Influences Local Inflammation and Regeneration Processes During Acute Pancreatitis and Promotes Fibrosis by a Direct Activation of Pancreatic Fibroblasts During Chronic Pancreatitis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
IL‐4/IL‐13/STAT6 signaling plays a crucial for the suppression of pro‐inflammation during acute pancreatitis and supports acinar cell regeneration but has only minor impact on fibrogenesis during chronic form of the disease. IL‐4/IL‐13 induce the expression of certain collagens directly in pancreatic fibroblasts via STAT6 activation, whereas ...
