Outcomes after emergency appendicectomy in patients with liver cirrhosis: a population-based cohort study from England (2023)
Journal Article

Introduction The mortality risk after appendicectomy in patients with liver cirrhosis is predicted to be higher than in the general population given the associated risk of perioperative bleeding, infections and liver decompensation. This population-... Read More about Outcomes after emergency appendicectomy in patients with liver cirrhosis: a population-based cohort study from England.

Incidence, risk factors and outcomes of checkpoint inhibitor-induced liver injury: A 10-year real-world retrospective cohort study (2023)
Journal Article

Background & Aims: Checkpoint inhibitors (CPI) account for increasing numbers of drug-induced liver injury (DILI) cases. We aimed to determine the incidence rate and risk factors associated with checkpoint inhibitor-induced liver injury (ChILI). Meth...

Understanding colorectal cancer risk for symptomatic patients in primary care: A cohort study utilising faecal immunochemical tests and blood results in England (2023)
Journal Article

Background: A faecal immunochemical tests (FIT) cut-off of ≥10 μg Hb/g faeces is now recommended in the UK as a gateway to urgent (suspected cancer) investigation for colorectal cancer (CRC), based on an expected CRC risk threshold of 3%. Aims: To qu... Read More about Understanding colorectal cancer risk for symptomatic patients in primary care: A cohort study utilising faecal immunochemical tests and blood results in England.

Venous thromboembolism following colectomy for diverticular disease: an English population-based cohort study (2023)
Journal Article

Aim This study reports venous thromboembolism (VTE) rates following colectomy for diverticular disease to explore the magnitude of postoperative VTE risk in this population and identify high risk subgroups of interest. Method English national c... Read More about Venous thromboembolism following colectomy for diverticular disease: an English population-based cohort study.

Anaemia of acute inflammation: a higher acute systemic inflammatory response is associated with a larger decrease in blood haemoglobin levels in patients with COVID-19 infection (2023)
Journal Article

AIMS: The study tests the hypothesis that a higher acute systemic inflammatory response was associated with a larger decrease in blood hemoglobin levels in patients with Coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) infection. METHODS: All patients with either suspect...

Risk of liver fibrosis associated with long-term methotrexate therapy may be overestimated (2023)
Journal Article

Background & Aims: The risk of significant liver fibrosis from prolonged methotrexate (MTX) exposure has been estimated at around 5%, prompting intensive monitoring strategies. However, the evidence is derived from retrospective studies that under-re... Read More about Risk of liver fibrosis associated with long-term methotrexate therapy may be overestimated.
