Safety in numbers: Minimum thresholding, Maximum bounds and Little White Lies : The case of the mean and standard deviation (2022)
Presentation / Conference
Derrick, B., Green, E., Kember, K., Ritchie, F., & White, P. (2022, April). Safety in numbers: Minimum thresholding, Maximum bounds and Little White Lies : The case of the mean and standard deviation. Paper presented at Scottish Economic Society, Glasgow

Reporting the sample mean, sample standard deviation and sample size could in some cases lead to the unique identification of the underpinning sample. The likelihood of this reveal via direct enumeration of the possible search space decreases with i...

Urinary Volatile Organic Compound Testing in Fast-Track Patients with Suspected Colorectal Cancer (2022)
Journal Article
Boulind, C. E., Gould, O., Costello, B. D. L., Allison, J., White, P., Ewings, P., …Francis, N. K. (2022). Urinary Volatile Organic Compound Testing in Fast-Track Patients with Suspected Colorectal Cancer. Cancers, 14(9), 2127. https://doi.org/10.3390/cancers14092127

Colorectal symptoms are common but only infrequently represent serious pathology, including colorectal cancer (CRC). A large number of invasive tests are presently performed for reassurance. We investigated the feasibility of urinary volatile organic... Read More about Urinary Volatile Organic Compound Testing in Fast-Track Patients with Suspected Colorectal Cancer.

Short-Term safety outcomes of mastectomy and immediate prepectoral implant-based breast reconstruction: Pre-BRA prospective multicentre cohort study (2022)
Journal Article
Harvey, K. L., Sinai, P., Mills, N., White, P., Holcombe, C., & Potter, S. (2022). Short-Term safety outcomes of mastectomy and immediate prepectoral implant-based breast reconstruction: Pre-BRA prospective multicentre cohort study. British Journal of Surgery, 109(6), 530-538. https://doi.org/10.1093/bjs/znac077

Background: Prepectoral breast reconstruction (PPBR) has recently been introduced to reduce postoperative pain and improve cosmetic outcomes in women having implant-based procedures. High-quality evidence to support the practice of PPBR, however, is...

Characterising recovery following abdominal aortic aneurysm repair using cardiopulmonary exercise testing and patient reported outcome measures (2022)
Journal Article
Dodds, N., Angell, J., Lewis, S. L., Pyke, M., White, P., Darweish Medniuk, A., …Tolchard, S. (2023). Characterising recovery following abdominal aortic aneurysm repair using cardiopulmonary exercise testing and patient reported outcome measures. Disability and Rehabilitation, 45(3), 1178-1184. https://doi.org/10.1080/09638288.2022.2055162

Purpose: Surgery is associated with a post-operative stress response, changes in cardiopulmonary reserve, and metabolic demand. Here recovery after abdominal aortic aneurysm repair is investigated using cardiopulmonary exercise testing and patient-re...

Epidemiology and outcomes of tibial plateau fractures in adults aged 60 and over treated in the United Kingdom (2022)
Journal Article
Donovan, R. L., Smith, J. R., Yeomans, D., Bennett, F., White, P., & Chesser, T. J. (2022). Epidemiology and outcomes of tibial plateau fractures in adults aged 60 and over treated in the United Kingdom. Injury, 53(6), 2219-2225. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.injury.2022.03.048

Background: Tibial plateau fractures are common in older adults, often resulting from low-energy falls. Although lower limb fragility fracture care has evolved, the management of tibial plateau fractures in older patients remains poorly researched. T...

The spatio-temporal influence of atmospheric circulations on monthly precipitation in Great Britain (2022)
Journal Article
West, H., White, P., Quinn, N., & Horswell, M. (2022). The spatio-temporal influence of atmospheric circulations on monthly precipitation in Great Britain. Atmosphere, 13(3), Article 429. https://doi.org/10.3390/atmos13030429

It has long been understood that the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) is a key driver of regional climate in Great Britain and across Europe. However, studies have also noted that there is spatio-temporal variability in NAO-rainfall signatures which...
