Perceptions, definitions, and therapeutic interventions for occasional constipation: a ROME working group consensus document (2023)
Journal Article
Brenner, D. M., Corsetti, M., Drossman, D., Tack, J., & Wald, A. (2024). Perceptions, definitions, and therapeutic interventions for occasional constipation: a ROME working group consensus document. Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 22(2), 397-412. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cgh.2023.08.044

Background & Aims: Functional constipation is the most common of the disorders of gut-brain interaction, affecting approximately 12% of the world population. Although classically considered a chronic condition, many individuals experience shorter yet...

Classification of cancer cells at the sub-cellular level by phonon microscopy using deep learning (2023)
Journal Article
Pérez-Cota, F., Martínez-Arellano, G., La Cavera III, S., Hardiman, W., Thornton, L., Fuentes-Domínguez, R., …Clark, M. (2023). Classification of cancer cells at the sub-cellular level by phonon microscopy using deep learning. Scientific Reports, 13, Article 16228. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-023-42793-9

There is a consensus about the strong correlation between the elasticity of cells and tissue and their normal, dysplastic, and cancerous states. However, developments in cell mechanics have not seen significant progress in clinical applications. In t...

Estimating the cost-effectiveness of intermittently scanned continuous glucose monitoring in adults with type 1 diabetes in England (2023)
Journal Article
Elliott, R. A., Rogers, G., Evans, M. L., Neupane, S., Rayman, G., Lumley, S., …FLASH–UK Trial Study Group. (2024). Estimating the cost-effectiveness of intermittently scanned continuous glucose monitoring in adults with type 1 diabetes in England. Diabetic Medicine, 41(3), Article e15232. https://doi.org/10.1111/dme.15232

We previously showed that intermittently scanned continuous glucose monitoring (isCGM) reduces HbA1c at 24 weeks compared with self-monitoring of blood glucose with finger pricking (SMBG) in adults with type 1 diabetes and high HbA1c levels (58-97 mm...
