Thanks to all who contributed to this COVID-19 vaccine effectiveness (VE) study journalofinfection.com/article/S0163-… It demonstrates the success, but also how in some risk groups, comorbidities, frailty, immunosuppressed VE was lower. Clinical Informatics RCGP .

Fantastic to see the protocol for our extended sentinel surveillance for 23/24 published publichealth.jmir.org/2024/1/e52047 This is a fantastic partnership between OxPrimaryCareSci - @RCGP - UK Health Security Agency - General Practices who share pseudonymised data & so many other partners. Thanks to all!

Nice to see this review published academic.oup.com/ndt/advance-ar… It illustrates the need for more real world evidence studies to compliment studies in CKD run on some higher risk patient groups. Clinical Informatics OxPrimaryCareSci

Great to see another excellent paper from the PRINICIPLLE trial, doi.org/10.1016/j.jinf… Great to have recruited the first patient, been a participant, investigator and collaborator with the #RCGP Research and Surveillance Centre and the #clininf Research Group

Great publication showing the value of our @RCGP RSC serology sampling. UK Health Security Agency Influenza vaccination provides high serology titres against influenza A H3N2, and previous years vaccination also helps flu immunity. OxPrimaryCareSci Thanks to our GP members. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Great publication by my colleague Meredith Leston doi.org/10.1016/j.jinf… This review makes sense of the variation in risk to COVID-19 in people who are immunosuppressed. @Clininf OxPrimaryCareSci UK Health Security Agency @RCGP Well worth a careful read!

Fantastic the first UK HIN2v 'swine flu' found in UK was from an RCGP Research and Surveillance Centre (RSC) general practice. Great team work with Clinical Informatics OxPrimaryCareSci and UK Health Security Agency Thanks to our fantastic sampling GP practices. To join, be in touch

Delighted our paper on “Association of strong opioids and antibiotics prescribing with GP burnout” bjgp.org/content/73/733… has made in to @BJGPJournal Top10 list of papers 2023.

Implementation of chronic kidney disease guidelines for SGLT2i sciencedirect.com/science/articl… Great to see @RCGP Research and Surveillance Centre (RSC) data used by Clinical Informatics at OxPrimaryCareSci to show great progress in SGLT2 GP prescribing, but scope to further improve

Great to have the RSC's work noted in the @RCGP
Chairs new Jan 10th. 'Thank you to all our Virology Sampling Practices for collecting over 1,080 swabs in one week! 2023 was an incredible year for the Research and Surveillance Centre network.' Fantastic work by our GPs Clinical Informatics

An exemplar of how a comprehensive primary care dataset can be used to validate tools to use in a more limited data collection. In this case the General Practice Extraction Service (GPES) Data for Pandemic Planning and Research (GDPPR). Clinical Informatics See: preprints.jmir.org/preprint/56042

Data from our fantastic GP network @RCGP Research and Surveillance Centre (RSC) OxPrimaryCareSci on rising scabies rates was featured in The Times thetimes.co.uk/article/xmas-s… with comments in The Guardian theguardian.com/society/2024/j… and others. Thanks to our practices for sharing data.

Important but sad to report, that disparities remain and after COVID-19 booster males, those from more deprived areas, with comorbidities remain at increase risk of hospitalisation and death. authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S26… Thanks to our practices for sharing data. RCGP Clinical Informatics

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) has been the most numerous virus detected by the RCGP OxPrimaryCareSci primary care sentinel network. Our fantastic general practices have identified 468 cases of RSV, across all ages, although over 200 have been in children under 5 years old.

Great to have the opportunity to remind colleagues of the evidence from our research about Physician Associates (PAs). bmj.com/content/383/bm… Nine years on from our research PAs remain unregulated with issues of supervision and informing patients unresolved.

A nice World Health Organization (WHO) article giving the wider context around the first H1N2 virus isolated from a human in the UK. This was possible because of OxPrimaryCareSci, @RCGP and UK Health Security Agency support of the RSC, England's primary care sentinel network. who.int/emergencies/di…

Great to see recogntion by UK Health Security Agency of the fantastic work GP practices in the @RCGP Research & Surveillance CenTre (RSC) are doing. Please see: ukhsa.blog.gov.uk/2023/11/28/the… Well done to all, new network GP members always welcome. Contact [email protected]

Great to see our fantastic @RCGP RSC, sentinel network, given the chance to report our successes and challenges across the pandemic at thelancet.com/journals/lanin… A pleasure to work with GP colleagues & UK Health Security Agency, Clinical Informatics and ORCHID to deliver our service.

Well done to the RCGP Research and Surveillance Centre (RSC) sentinel general practice that detected the first UK case of a new 'swine flu' strain! Influenza A H1N2v. Part of our longstanding work with UK Health Security Agency with an expert team of researchers Clinical Informatics OxPrimaryCareSci
