Scutt, P., Ban, L., Card, T., Crooks, C. J., Guha, N., West, J., & Morling, J. R. (2022). Liver blood marker testing in UK primary care: a UK wide cohort study, 2004-2016. BMJ Open, 12(9), e058967. https://doi.org/10.1136/bmjopen-2021-058967

OBJECTIVE: We aimed to determine (1) the temporal trends of liver enzyme testing in UK general practice and (2) how these vary among different subgroups at risk of chronic liver disease (CLD). DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study. SETTING: UK primary c... Read More about Liver blood marker testing in UK primary care: a UK wide cohort study, 2004-2016.

Journal Article
Buch, S., Innes, H., Lutz, P. L., Nischalke, H. D., Marquardt, J. U., Fischer, J., …Stickel, F. (2022). Genetic variation in TERT modifies the risk of hepatocellular carcinoma in alcohol-related cirrhosis: Results from a genome-wide case-control study. Gut, https://doi.org/10.1136/gutjnl-2022-327196

Objective: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) often develops in patients with alcohol-related cirrhosis at an annual risk of up to 2.5%. Some host genetic risk factors have been identified but do not account for the majority of the variance in occurrence...

Performance of routine risk scores for predicting cirrhosis-related morbidity in the community (2022)
Journal Article
Innes, H., Morling, J. R., Buch, S., Hamill, V., Stickel, F., & Guha, I. N. (2022). Performance of routine risk scores for predicting cirrhosis-related morbidity in the community. Journal of Hepatology, 77(2), 365-376. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jhep.2022.02.022

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Models predicting an individual’s ten-year risk of cirrhosis complications have not been developed for a community setting. Our objectives were to assess the performance of existing risk scores – both with and without genetic data...

Journal Article
Bennett, L., Purssell, H., Street, O., Piper Hanley, K., Morling, J. R., Hanley, N. A., …ID-LIVER Consortium. (2022). Health Technology Adoption in Liver Disease: Innovative Use of Data Science Solutions for Early Disease Detection. Frontiers in Digital Health, 4, Article 737729. https://doi.org/10.3389/fdgth.2022.737729

Chronic liver disease (CLD) is an ignored epidemic. Premature mortality is considerable and in the United Kingdom (UK) liver disease is in the top three for inequitable healthcare alongside heart and respiratory disease. Fifty percentage of patients... Read More about Health Technology Adoption in Liver Disease: Innovative Use of Data Science Solutions for Early Disease Detection.
