Abstract
Abstracts are not currently available in GtR for all funded research. This is normally because the abstract was not required at the time of proposal submission, but may be because it included sensitive information such as personal details.
Technical Summary
Making data findable and interoperable, adding value to existing datasets and enriching data collection from person-centric and patient reported measures represents the most valuable opportunity to accelerate understanding and improved treatment of mental health conditions.
Building on our experience of leading national and international programmes enabling access, interoperability and reuse of data for mental health - including the platform enabling use of Electronic Medical Records for mental health across England (CRIS), the platform for data aggregation for dementia (DPUK) and the pan-European platform to enable data interoperability from cohort and real-world data (EMIF) we propose here a programme of work including
underpinning themes and four indicative projects. These projects will gain from the linkage we propose to establish between routine care data and primary, secondary, schools and cohort data and will use devices to collect data remotely ranging from patient reported outcome measures to cognition, sleep and behaviour. To these enormous volumes of data, including the full mental health medical records from 10k people we have already linked to UK Biobank and the generation of 10k proteomes linked to mental health records, plus the streaming data from connected devices, we will bring advanced analytics from the Mathematics Institute and Natural Language Processing from computer scientists using neural networks. All our work will be enveloped in a governance and ethics stream with patient and public involvement. We leverage more than £40m in existing grant funding plus new cash and in-kind contribution from industry partners of over £12m. The outcome will be an informatics supported platform for experimental
medicine, increased understanding and development of novel therapeutics for depression and a bold drive to determine the relationship between intervention and outcome in mental wellbeing in young people. These themes and proposed projects will work with our proposed partners to establish the preparatory work for a platform for Mental Health Data capitalising on the unique opportunities presented by the NHS, by strengths in mental health research and by outstanding
digital sciences in the UK and in Oxford.

| Title | OxWell School Survey Dataset |
| Description | OxWell is a repeated cross-sectional online pupil survey. It collects a broad range of self-reported measures of mental health and wellbeing, risk and protective factors, demographics, lifestyle factors and young people's attitudes to providing sensitive data for research purposes. The surveys run in 2019, 2020 and 2021 gathered a total of 57,000 responses. The 2023 survey is currently open (since 21st February 2023) and has already collected responses from over 23,000 school students, with another 10 - 30 thousand responses expected before the survey closes. |
| Type Of Material | Database/Collection of data |
| Year Produced | 2021 |
| Provided To Others? | Yes |
| Impact | We are inviting collaborators to contact us and apply to analyse the data to answer suitable research questions. Fully anonymous extracts of the data can be made available to researchers following a review by the research team and with appropriate agreements in place, and contractual arrangements are currently being made (early 2023) to make the data accessible on a platform hosted by SeRP. The OxWell dataset and school network has contributed to funding negotiations with philanthropists and a collaboration with The Day, an online daily newspaper for young people. |

| PI Contribution | I have led all the different phases of the project and closely supervised the work of my research team. I have not stared from scratch, because I have been preparing the ground for this project for years. I have completed the preliminary analyses of the studies to be included in the IPD-NMA, and have collected the IPD from a significant proportion of clinical studies. I am working with relevant stakeholders to grant me access to additional unpublished information, in collaboration with patients and clinicians and I have developed a prototype of the treatment algorithm. I have existing multidisciplinary collaborations (Salanti, Higgins, Ioannidis, Egger, Browning, De Vos) that allow me to progress on the project in timely way and I have established this collaboration with the MRC Pathfinder that will help me carry out the tasks for which I do not have direct expertise (for instance, the analysis of large observational datasets). |
| Collaborator Contribution | MRC Pathfinder colleagues with machine learning expertise have helped design the method section of the analysis protocol and the treatment algorithm that will inform the decision making tool. |
| Impact | Together we are developing a clinical support system (treatment algorithm), to guide clinicians, patients and carers in the shared process of decision-making in routine care. The web-based algorithm will: Utilise the predictions from the best predictive models identified during the first phase of the NIHR project. Incorporate preferences and values of clinicians and patients to identify the desired clinical outcome considering both efficacy and adverse events Generate the corresponding ranking list of personalised treatment recommendations that will inform the clinical discussion between clinicians and patients, and the final treatment decision. |

| Organisation | SomaLogic |
| Country | United States |
| Sector | Private |
| PI Contribution | Somalogic (https://somalogic.com/) is our main partner in our bio-markers research. They specialise on measuring protein concentration in blood samples, with a state-of-the-art platform able to obtain the concentration of 5000 proteins simultaneously. This is the service that they provide to us. The collaboration is very active and on-going. |
| Collaborator Contribution | Our partners select and prepare the blood samples of our research participants. Somalogic then process these samples to measure protein concentration, which they then submit back to us. We use these measurements to predict patient prognosis. |
| Impact | - Thanks to this collaboration, we have obtained the protein concentration of approximately 1200 patients and controls. We have then used these measurements to predict patient diagnosis in advance to the presentation of any behavioural symptoms. Several of the publications of our MRC Pathfinder program are a result of these samples. Future publications will still emerge from these samples - Through this collaboration we are currently processing an additional 2000 samples of psychiatric patients and controls. Once Somalogic provides to us their measurements, this dataset will be the largest proteomic cohort word-wide for some of the diseases under scrutiny. Significant publications are expected to emerge from this dataset. |

| Title | Protocol to test automated analysis of facial emotions as a marker of mood in patients with mood disorders |
| Description | Researchers in the MRC Oxford Pathfinder Mood Recognition project have developed a protocol to test automated analysis of facial emotions, using cloud-based cognitive services, combined with validated self-reported measures of mood and emotion, and mathematical models to interpret the multi-modal data. Use of the first computer-based app was approved by NHS-HRA in 2019 and has been used to collect data from patients and healthy volunteers. Following delays due to the pandemic, remote versions of the app have now been developed to collect the data online, and ethical approval has now been granted by NHS-HRA. Following the end of the Pathfinder award, the project is now being funded by and EPSRC grant to Professor Terry Lyons. |

| Results and Impact | Mental Health TRC Medical Informatics workstream committee member. A 'Medical Informatics' MH-TRC workstream was proposed in early 2020 and leads (Ann John, John Ainsworth) appointed in September 2020. 'Medical Informatics' for the purposes of the MH-TRC workstream is defined as routine information collected electronically in health services. While mental health service data are of particular interest, a volume of mental healthcare occurs in primary care and emergency departments, so information from these sources is equally relevant. Our aim is to facilitate the mental health research community to make effective use of routinely collected data and digital technologies. |
