BACKGROUND Health Impact Assessment (HIA) involves assessing how proposals may alter the determinants of health prior to implementation and recommends changes to enhance positive and mitigate negative impacts. HIAs growing use needs to be supported by a strong evidence base, both to validate the value of its application and to make its application more robust. We have carried out the first syst...
OBJECTIVE Scores on the Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ) predict the need for support measures in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). In this study we compare the performance of the HAQ in this context with that of the more disease-specific Belgian Rheumatoid Arthritis Disability Assessment (BRADA) questionnaire. METHODS In this multicenter observational study, patients with RA and ...
BACKGROUND Although many disability questionnaires measure fact very efficiently, they do not allow for consideration of the relevance of that disability to the patient.

We used a bespoke statistical method based on mixture modelling t...

Descriptive statistics and correlation coefficients were us...
OBJECTIVE Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) have an increased risk of serious infections. Comparing infection rates across RA populations is complicated by differences in background infection risk, population composition and study methodology. We measured infection rates from five RA registries globally, with the aim to contextualise infection rates from an RA clinical trials population. ...
