Interactive Dashboards

Overview

This page features interactive dashboards developed to support AHRU’s research. Studies with available dashboards are listed in the dropdown sections below. Each dashboard includes data visualisations that allow users to explore, monitor, and analyse a range of metrics, such as disease-specific incidence and mortality. Some dashboards are updated in near real-time to provide timely insights into the burden of specific diseases and related health inequalities.

#202507A - Trends and variation in the incidence of hip fracture in England

Hip fractures are a common, serious injury in older adults and are life-changing events for patients and their families.

The interactive tool below shows trends in the incidence of hip fractures in England among adults aged 50 years and older.

You can use the dashboard to explore:

  • Monthly counts of hip fracture admissions
  • Crude incidence rates per 100,000 population
  • Age-standardised incidence rates per 100,000 population, adjusted to the 2013 European Standard Population

Filters are available to view these metrics by age group, sex, and level of socio-economic deprivation (based on the Index of Multiple Deprivation).

A detailed description of the methodology and interpretation of the trends can be found in the following peer-reviewed journal publication: Trends and variation in the incidence of hip fracture in England before, during, and after the COVID-19 pandemic (2014-2024): a population-based observational study.

 

 

 

All statistics presented are calculated using data from the Hospital Episode Statistics Admitted Patient Care dataset, provided by NHS England, and published population data from the Office for National Statistics. Neither of these organisations is responsible for any of the tool’s content.

The development of this tool was supported by funding from The NIHR Oxford Biomedical Research Centre.

#202508A - Trends and variation in hospital-recorded pulmonary embolism in England

Pulmonary embolism (PE) is when a blood clot blocks blood flow in the lungs. It’s a medical emergency that needs quick treatment. Tracking how often it happens is important for helping health professionals and policymakers prevent cases, improve care, and use resources where they’re needed most. COVID-19 infection is thought to increase the risk of developing PE. The interactive tool below displays national trends in first-time, hospital-recorded PE in England, and lets you explore how these patterns were affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.

What you can explore:

  • Monthly counts of first-time PE admissions
  • Crude rates per 100,000 population
  • Age-standardised rates per 100,000 population, adjusted to the 2013 European Standard Population

Filters available:

  • Age group
  • Sex
  • Region of residence
  • Socio-economic deprivation (Index of Multiple Deprivation quintile)
  • COVID-19 status (with or without a co-recorded diagnosis)

Methods:

A full description of data sources, case definitions, statistical methods and guidance for interpreting the results is provided in the accompanying peer-reviewed article: “Temporal trends in hospital-recorded pulmonary embolism in England before, during and after the COVID-19 pandemic (2008–2024): a population-based observational study” (DOI).
