TL;DR: Mental health in the UK had deteriorated compared with pre-COVID-19 trends by late April, 2020, and policies emphasising the needs of women, young people and those with preschool aged children are likely to play an important part in preventing future mental illness.

Matthias Pierce,Holly Hope,Tamsin Ford,Stephani L. Hatch,Matthew Hotopf,Evangelos Kontopantelis,Ann John,Roger T. Webb,Simon Wessely,Sally McManus,Kathryn M. Abel +10 more
TL;DR: Mental health in the UK deteriorated compared to trends pre-Covid, particularly in young people, women and those living with young children, and inequalities may widen over time, as in other causes of recessions.
Journal ArticleDOI
The prevalence of rheumatoid arthritis in the United Kingdom: new estimates for a new century
Deborah P M Symmons,G. Turner,Roger T. Webb,P. Asten,E M Barrett,Mark Lunt,David Scott,Alan J. Silman +7 more
TL;DR: The prevalence of RA in women, but not in men, in the UK may have fallen since the 1950s, and the age- and sex-specific point prevalence figures are therefore an underestimate.
Journal ArticleDOI

Jayne Cooper,Navneet Kapur,Roger T. Webb,Martin Lawlor,Else Guthrie,Kevin Mackway-Jones,Louis Appleby +6 more
TL;DR: The results highlight the importance in a suicide prevention strategy of early intervention after an episode of self-harm, and the importance of attention to physical illness, alcohol problems, and living circumstances, in treating female patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ali S. Khashan,Kathryn M. Abel,Roseanne McNamee,Marianne Giørtz Pedersen,Roger T. Webb,Philip N. Baker,Louise C. Kenny,Preben Bo Mortensen +7 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that severe stress to a mother during the first trimester may alter the risk of schizophrenia in offspring, consistent with ecological evidence from whole populations exposed to severe stressors and suggests that environment may influence neurodevelopment at the feto-placental-maternal interface.
