Characterizing the risk interplay between alcohol intake and body mass index on cirrhosis morbidity (2021)
Journal Article
Innes, H., Crooks, C. J., Aspinall, E., Card, T. R., Hamill, V., Dillon, J., Guha, N. I., Hayes, P. C., Hutchinson, S., West, J., & Morling, J. R. (2022). Characterizing the risk interplay between alcohol intake and body mass index on cirrhosis morbidity. Hepatology, 75(2), 369-378. https://doi.org/10.1002/hep.32123

Background and Aims: It is thought that alcohol intake and body mass index (BMI) interact supra-additively to modulate the risk of cirrhosis, but evidence for this phenomenon is limited. We investigated the interrelationship between alcohol and BMI o... Read More about Characterizing the risk interplay between alcohol intake and body mass index on cirrhosis morbidity.

Socioeconomic inequalities in the incidence of alcohol-related liver disease: A nationwide Danish study (2021)
Journal Article

Background: There is socio-economic inequality in total alcohol-related harm, but knowledge of inequality in the incidence of specific alcohol-related diseases would be beneficial for prevention. Registry-based studies with nationwide coverage may re... Read More about Socioeconomic inequalities in the incidence of alcohol-related liver disease: A nationwide Danish study.

External validation of a model to predict women most at risk of postpartum venous thromboembolism: Maternity clot risk (2021)
Journal Article
