Allostatic load as a complex clinical construct: a case-based computational modeling approach (2015)
Journal Article
Galen Buckwalter, J., Castellani, B., Mcewen, B., Karlamangla, A. S., Rizzo, A. A., John, B., …Seeman, T. (2016). Allostatic load as a complex clinical construct: a case-based computational modeling approach. Complexity, 21(S1), 291-306. https://doi.org/10.1002/cplx.21743

Allostatic load (AL) is a complex clinical construct, providing a unique window into the cumulative impact of stress. However, due to its inherent complexity, AL presents two major measurement challenges to conventional statistical modeling (the fiel...

Weighing up the evidence: a systematic review of the effectiveness of workplace interventions to tackle socio-economic inequalities in obesity (2015)
Journal Article
Cairns, J., Bambra, C., Hillier-Brown, F., Moore, H., & Summerbell, C. (2015). Weighing up the evidence: a systematic review of the effectiveness of workplace interventions to tackle socio-economic inequalities in obesity. Journal of Public Health, 37(4), 659-670. https://doi.org/10.1093/pubmed/fdu077

Background: Addressing socio-economic inequalities in obesity is a public health priority and the workplace is seen as a potential health promotion site. However, there is a lack of evidence on what works. This article systematically reviews studies...
