title = "From Personalised Predictions to Targeted Advice: Improving Self-Management in Rheumatoid Arthritis",
abstract = "Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease, that can lead to joint damage but also affects quality of life (QoL) including aspects such as self-esteem, fatigue, and mood. Current medical management focuses on the fluctuating disease activity to prevent progressive disability, but practical constraints mean periodic clinic appointments give little attention to the patient{\textquoteright}s experience of managing the wider consequences of chronic illness. The main aim of this study is to explore how to use patient-derived data both for clinical decision-making and for personalisation, with the first steps towards a platform for tailoring self-management advice to patients{\textquoteright} lifestyle changes. As a result, we proposed a Bayesian network model for personalisation and have obtained promising outcomes.",
