Each collection of records held by the National Records of Scotland (NRS) has a catalogue or index to help you find the right material whether it's a file or a single document. For completeness, you should include in L17 any people who cannot be allocated to another category. 6.3 The non-employed Key statistical trends: Council Area Profiles; High Level Summaries; and Registrar General’s Annual Report.

Alternatively, you may want to implement the class and use a six-month unemployment rule, relating to the maximum length of time for which Jobseekers’ Allowance is paid.Of the 2028 patients, 31% had an NRS of 3, 38% of 4 and 31% of ≥5 points, and 477 (24%) died during the 180 days of follow-up. For each point increase in NRS, we found a stepwise increase in risk of 30-day mortality (adjusted Hazard Ratio (HR) 1.22 (95% CI 1.00 to 1.48), p = 0.048) and 180-day mortality (adjusted HR 1.37 (95% CI 1.22 to 1.55), p < 0.001). NRS was associated with length of hospital stay (adjusted difference of 0.60 days per NRS point increase, 95%CI 0.23 to 0.97, p = 0.002) and functional outcomes at 180 days (adjusted decrease in Barthel index of -4.49 points per NRS point increase, 95%CI -6.54 to -2.45, p < 0.001). In a subgroup analysis, associations of NRS and short-term adverse outcomes were less pronounced in patients receiving nutritional support (intervention group) compared to control group patients (adjusted HR for 30-day mortality 1.12 [95%CI 0.83 to 1.52, p = 0.454] vs. 1.33 [95%CI 1.02 to 1.72, p = 0.032]).

To improve discrimination for detecting relatively small changes, an NPRS comprised of numbers along a scale was used in a population of 100 patients with a variety of rheumatic diseases. Variations in pain descriptors used as anchors for end points on the NPRS have been reported in the literature. However, the methodology used to develop these various anchor terms is unknown.

Numeric Pain Rating Scale - Physiopedia

Two socio-economic classifications – or SECs – were widely used in the UK in both official statistics and academic research: Social Class based on Occupation (SC, formerly Registrar General’s Social Class) and Socio-economic Groups (SEG). L14 is an optional category while L15, L16 and L17 are the residual categories that are excluded when the classification is collapsed into classes.Because it effectively eliminates a separate class of self -employed, the three-class version may be assumed to involve a form of hierarchy but none of the other versions can be regarded as ordinal scales. However, it would be possible (and in some ways preferable) to retain this class by creating a four-class model. It is not desirable to create an ordinal scale by combining the self-employed in Class 4 with the intermediate Class 3 because the self-employed are distinctive in their life chances and behaviour, but users of the old SECs wanted something similar to the old ‘manual/non-manual’ divide and so the three-class model was created as a faute de mieux approximation. Users should note that the meaning of ‘intermediate occupations’ is not therefore the same in the three-class model as in the others. Nevertheless, we strongly recommend that you accept the theoretical and measurement principles of the NS-SEC, take advantage of the conceptual base of the model for developing hypotheses linking it to outcomes of interest, and use appropriate analytic techniques for nominal data. Conclusion: JBT-101 was safe and well-tolerated. While the pre-specified mixed effects model did not identify significant differences between changes in NRS pain scores in active arms vs. PBO, the frequency of pain category improvement at Day 84 was notably higher in the active arms vs PBO. Further analyses, including those of SLEDAI, BILAG and PGA, may identify patients most likely to respond to JBT-101.

Of course, a clear conceptual basis does not remove all barriers to explaining what socio-economic differences mean – employment is not the only determinant of life chances and not everything can be explained by what a classification directly measures. However, a properly constructed and validated classification such as the NS-SEC removes at least one barrier to explanation. It was not designed to offer better statistical associations than Social Class, (SC) and Socio-economic Group, (SEG) but to improve the possibility of explaining them. As it measures employment relations, i.e. aspects of work and market situations and of the labour contract, it enables us to more readily construct causal narratives that specify how the NS-SEC links to a range of outcomes via a variety of intervening variables (see Rose and Pevalin with O’Reilly 2005:16–19; c.f. Rose and Harrison 2010: Ch.1). Those who have never worked but are seeking or would like paid work are allocated to operational category L14.1.
