Colon length in pediatric health and constipation measured using magnetic resonance imaging and three dimensional skeletonization (2024)
Journal Article
Sharif, H., Hoad, C. L., Abrehart, N., Gowland, P. A., Spiller, R. C., Kirkham, S., …Marciani, L. (2024). Colon length in pediatric health and constipation measured using magnetic resonance imaging and three dimensional skeletonization. PLoS ONE, 19(1), Article e0296311. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0296311

Recent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies showed that colonic volumes in children are different between health and functional constipation. The length of the colon has however been rarely measured and principally using unphysiological colon pre...

Journal Article
Marciani, L., Lopez-Sanchez, P., Pettersson, S., Hoad, C., Abrehart, N., Ahnoff, M., & Strömf, A. (2019). Alginate and HM-pectin in sports-drink give rise to intra-gastric gelation in-vivo. Food and Function, 10(12), 7892-7899. https://doi.org/10.1039/C9FO01617A

The addition of gelling polysaccharides to sport-drinks may provide improved tolerability of drinks with high concentration of digestible carbohydrates (CHO), otherwise known to increase the risk of gastro-intestinal complaints among athletes under p...

Magnetic resonance imaging quantification of fasted state colonic liquid pockets in healthy humans (2017)
Journal Article
Murray, K., Hoad, C. L., Mudie, D. M., Wright, J., Heissam, K., Abrehart, N., …Marciani, L. (2017). Magnetic resonance imaging quantification of fasted state colonic liquid pockets in healthy humans. Molecular Pharmaceutics, 14(8), 2629-2638. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.molpharmaceut.7b00095

The rate and extent of drug dissolution and absorption from solid oral dosage forms is highly dependent on the volume of liquid in the gastrointestinal tract (GIT). However, little is known about the time course of GIT liquid volumes after drinking a...
