The CUPID (Cultural and Psychosocial Influences on Disability) Study: Methods of Data Collection and Characteristics of Study Sample

David Coggon, +65 more
- 06 Jul 2012 - 
TL;DR: There was substantial heterogeneity between occupational groups in economic and psychosocial aspects of work; three- to five-fold variation in awareness of someone outside work with musculoskeletal pain; and more than ten-fold variations in the prevalence of adverse health beliefs about back and arm pain.
Journal ArticleDOI

Disabling musculoskeletal pain in working populations: is it the job, the person or the culture?

David Coggon, +60 more
- 01 Jun 2013 - 
TL;DR: Large international variation in the prevalence of disabling forearm and back pain among occupational groups carrying out similar tasks, which is only partially explained by the personal and socioeconomic risk factors that were analysed, is indicated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Patterns of multisite pain and associations with risk factors.

David Coggon, +55 more
- 01 Sep 2013 -

Journal ArticleDOI

Descriptive Epidemiology of Somatising Tendency: Findings from the CUPID Study

Sergio Vargas-Prada, +59 more
- 29 Apr 2016 - 
TL;DR: This study supports the use of questions from the Brief Symptom Inventory as a method for measuring somatising tendency, and suggests that in adults of working age, it is a fairly stable trait.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long-term outcome following total knee arthroplasty: a controlled longitudinal study

TL;DR: Improvements in physical function following TKA for osteoarthritis are sustained beyond 5 years, and there seems no justification for withholding TKA from obese patients solely on the grounds of their body mass index.
