BMJ Open, 7(2), e013351. https://doi.org/10.1136/bmjopen-2016-013351

Purpose Recruitment to trials is often difficult. Many trials fail to meet recruitment targets resulting in underpowered studies which waste resources and the time of those who participated. While there is evidence that many people are willing to tak... Read More about Cohort profile: the Scottish Research register SHARE.

PLoS Medicine, 13(7), Article e1002098. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pmed.1002098

Background

Self-monitoring of blood glucose among people with type 2 diabetes not treated with insulin does not appear to be effective in improving glycemic control. We investigated whether health professional review of telemetrically transmitted...

Background: Continuity of care is widely regarded as an important marker of quality in the management of patients with long-term
conditions. New services that integrate telemonitoring into care pathways have potential to change aspects of continuity... Read More about Continuity, but at what cost? The impact of telemonitoring COPD on continuities of care: a qualitative study..

Background
The association between stress and morale among general practitioners (GP) is well documented. However, the impact of GP stress or low morale on patient care is less clear. GPs in the UK now routinely survey patients about the quality of... Read More about The impact of general practitioner morale on patient satisfaction with care: a cross-sectional study.
