It’s been an honour to be part of the Admission programme which aims to help clinicians care for people living with multiple long‑term conditions.
We recently reviewed clinical guidelines and provided recommendations to shape future guidance.

Dr Megan Armstrong joined colleagues in Newcastle for the first in-person meeting of the NIHR Cross-Network Collaboration on inequalities in MLTCs.

Energising discussions led by Professors Rachel Cooper and Liddy Goyder with exciting potential already emerging!

MP weighs in on MLTC’s calls to end violence in northern Saskatchewan The MP for northern Saskatchewan is addressing calls for change over what some First Nations say is a lack of policing in rural communities.

MLTC calls for First Nations-led policing following public safety concerns Meadow Lake Tribal Council calls for First Nations-led policing following public safety concerns after a rise in violence, gang activity, drugs, and emergency response delays.

We’re working with the NHS to improve services for people with Multiple Long Term Conditions, one of the things people are telling us is that they’d like more involvement in their own care plans.

🚨 New paper alert!
In our systematic review and meta-analysis, half of those presenting with ACS had multiple pre-existing long-term conditions, which were associated with:
💊 Less use of key therapies
📉 Worse clincial outcomes

Exploring Similarities and Differences Between Methods That Exploit Patterns of Local Genetic Correlation to Identify Shared Causal Loci Through Application to Genome‐Wide Association Studies of Multiple Long Term Conditions Genetic correlation analysis can provide useful insight into the shared genetic basis between traits or conditions of interest. However, most genome-wide analyses only inform about the degree of glob...

New from our @ukri.org and @nihr.bsky.social funded ADMISSION collaborative on MLTC - comparing different methods to assess local genetic correlations as part of our exploration of the genetic #epidemiology of #MLTC.

Improving Clinical Coordination Of Multiple Long-Term Conditions | The King's Fund More people have multiple long-term conditions, but care pathways focus on single conditions. What do clinicians and commissioners need to improve the experiences of those with multiple long-term cond...

We can’t treat people as collections of conditions. Care must acknowledge complexity and provide professionals with:
✔️ Clear roles
✔️ Shared systems
✔️ Joined-up thinking

Day 1 of the Multiple Long-Term Conditions: From Research to Reality End of Programme Showcase was full of exciting research projects, impactful stories from those with lived experience, and catching up with the DynAIRx team and others. #MLTC #Research #LivedExperience @livunichil.bsky.social

Nick Reynolds on stage presenting findings from the AI MULTIPLY project.

Co-l Prof Nick Reynolds @nihrnewcastlebrc.bsky.social presented findings from @qmul.ac.uk collaborators on analysing #readmission using #burstydynamics: it's not just about events, it's about patterns too! #clinicians do this subliminally - can we define it informatically& #informpractice? #MLTC #AI

Great poster presentations from Carly Flowers and Kieran Richards and excellent discussions with our #PPIE contributors at the #AIMRSF #MLTC From Research2Reality conference in Birmingham!

Members of the AI MULTIPLY team with PPIE contributors from our Newcastle and London groups

We caught up with our #socialactionforhealth #PPIE collaborators who were here for the day yesterday in Birmingham. It was a great day with interesting talks with an important focus on #LivedExperience in #MLTC #research

Day 2 of the #MLTC From Research to Reality conference kicks off the #carepathways session with the #ADMISSION project from @nihrnewcastlebrc.bsky.social @newcastleuni.bsky.social with transforming understanding of MLTCs in a hospital setting. Looking forward to the day ahead!

Really interesting talk from Emma Karoune from #Turing AIM RSF on lessons learned in #AI in #MLTC #research - human infrastructure and employing individuals with relevant skills from the project outset is key to being data ready & subsequent successful research delivery

We had a really varied panel discussion touching on the issues faced by those with #MLTC and how things could be improved. A role for medication reviews, and the social and education systems were emphasised as was the importance of active patients and support for self care.

The message from the #MLTC #PPIE panel: 1) Better #health education, information & encourage self-advocacy for patients & carers, 2) Link all #data together, across health & #socialcare, #dentistry etc so health & social care professionals can make better informed decisions for individual patients

Our #PPIE contributors are in the panel discussion & presenting findings from our PPIE x #ECR collab, there's a PI project update & lessons learned from the PM team! Looking forward2finding out about research elsewhere in #AI

Excited to be at the Multiple Long-Term Conditions: From Research to Reality End of Programme Showcase with some of the DynAIRx team. Looking forward to hearing about the interesting and impactful work taking place. #MLTC #Research
