The new Versus Arthritis Research Consortium promises to help answer pressing questions from those living with #arthritis.  Our Research Consortium: Musculoskeletal Epidemiology will bring together world-leading experts from five UK universities. https://t.co/AYzrRXy8oI

New paper ✨ Our systematic review of #machinelearning in the prediction of opioid-associated adverse events published in Nature Digital Medicine @npjDigitalMed https://t.co/4c0gjP7mWb Led by @carlosraul_ram, with @AuriolesJose @David_A_Jenkins @CfE_UoM @UoMMskResearch

📣Have you been diagnosed with childhood-onset arthritis? ❓Are you older than 16 years old? 👉We would really like to hear from you! 📊How do you feel about researchers using your data? 🗣️Your opinion matters! 💻Please complete our survey: https://t.co/9FNNU46sXD 🙌Thank you!!

A huge & sincere thank you to all who voted! Grateful to @VersusArthritis for shortlisting our work for the Research Highlight of the year amongst some great published studies 🙏 This was team effort co-led by @carlosraul_ram & @MaxLyon1 A lovely end to our academic year 🎉

Come and do a fully-funded PhD with me!! (BBSRC NWD) Leveraging machine learning to uncover multimorbidity clusters in rheumatoid arthritis at The University of Manchester on https://t.co/dhenZlKk0k #epidemiology #postgrad #epitwitter #DataScience #Funding #PhD

My previous bad experience with #opioids for my #Osteoarthritis & #Fibromyalgia led me to vote for number 3 @Fizzbw @Seanjen77601448 Please share with anyone & everyone you can think of with an interest in this research! @CfE_UoM

Exciting news! Please do vote 👇🗳️

Grateful for the incredible opportunity to present our research on clinical prediction models for opioid-related hospitalisations in the UK at #ACR2024. Huge thanks to @MeghnaJani, @AuriolesJose, @David_A_Jenkins, @NielsPeek, @WGDixon, #MarkLunt, @NIHRresearch, and #FOREUM!

How common are use of over the counter supplements, pain relief & sleep aids in rheumatology patients? We surveyed ~800 people attending our rheum clinics using 📱💻 >80% took pain relief meds- either OTC, on prescription or borrowed Some insights👇 🔗 https://t.co/aEnkfnhWfN

SDI ranges from 0-47, but most patients scored 0-3, with 50% scoring 0. To address this floor effect, can damage items be graded by severity in a revised organ damage index for #Lupus? Find out at Hall C, 10:30-12:30 on 18.11.2024. #ACR24

Today, we presented the revised SDI project updates at the @LupusOrg board meeting. Big thanks to LFA for their wonderful hospitality! We're one step closer to completing the revised SDI! #lupus #ACR24

New paper ✨ As part of an international collaboration between UK, Canada & US we evaluated the risk of death between different prescribed opioids in people with non-cancer pain (Spoiler: Type of opioid & daily dose matter💊) https://t.co/fgQYHUsOif w/ @WGDixon @DBatesSafety

Interested in using health data to enhance clinical care & implement digital solutions to improve patient safety? Check out our funded PhD studentship w/ myself, Profs Darren Ashcroft & Chris Armitage https://t.co/BCZa9ppY95 @GM_PSRC @ManHealthPsych @UoMMskResearch @CfE_UoM

Always fascinating to hear from Dr Ash Cox What a journey to academia from sneaking into the army at 15 to many undergrad and postgrad degrees and now at @CfE_UoM Looking forward to mixed methods research to come on #juvenile rheumatic diseases and education #UKRIME24

‘Healthcare providers can often overlook adverse events, focusing more on disease’ Ruby McKenna @CfE_UoM talks her #PhD work on adverse effects to #methotrexate in #JIA Great #PPIE work shown here too! #UKRIME24

🏥 How can health data advance arthritis research? For @ArthritisDigest, Louise Cook, Prof Will Dixon and Dr Meghna Jani from our Rheumatic and Musculoskeletal Diseases theme discuss how the analysis of existing health data can unlock new knowledge 👇 📰 https://t.co/fYiJYevyce

Our work on factors associated w/ long term opioids in AxSpa & psoriatic arthritis patients who were new starters out in @RheumJnl Using UK primary care EHRs, some included 🚬 Current smoking 📶 Social deprivation 🫁🫀comorbidities ++ 😣 fibromyalgia https://t.co/zJkTGSrdeX

If you’re at #IASP #WC2024 please come see my #CHIPP #APDP #UKBiobank poster number 187 today! I’ll be presenting from 3:15 to 4:45pm. @CfE_UoM @UKBIOBANK

I finally had the chance to wear this indescribable gown! 🎓 After some delays due to Covid, a baby 👶, and clinical work, I have graduated with a PhD in Epidemiology from @FBMH_UoM! @OfficialUoM 🎉

🎉 Today I passed my PhD! Huge thanks to Prof @MartaMartamosca and Dr Helen Young for the insightful and inspiring viva discussion, and to my supportive supervisors @Lupusdoc, Prof Ben Parker and Dr Tracy Briggs - it's been a rewarding and enjoyable journey
