Introduction Heavy drinkers in contact with alcohol services do not routinely have access to testing to establish the severity of potential liver disease. Transient elastography by FibroScan can provide this information. A recent systematic review su...

Male seminal parameters are not associated with Leydig cell functional capacity in men (2021)
Journal Article
Anand‐Ivell, R., Tremellen, K., Soyama, H., Enki, D., & Ivell, R. (2021). Male seminal parameters are not associated with Leydig cell functional capacity in men. Andrology, 9(4), 1126-1136. https://doi.org/10.1111/andr.13001

Background: Insulin-like peptide 3 (INSL3) is a constitutive, secreted peptide produced in the male uniquely by the Leydig cells of the testes. It is a biomarker for Leydig cell functional capacity, which is a measure of the numbers and differentiati...

Younger people with rheumatoid arthritis are at increased risk of fracture even before age 50 years: a population-based cohort study (2021)
Journal Article
Erwin, J., Enki, D. G., & Woolf, A. D. (2021). Younger people with rheumatoid arthritis are at increased risk of fracture even before age 50 years: a population-based cohort study. Osteoporosis International, 32(8), 1651-1659. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00198-021-05862-1

Summary: Less is known about the risk of fracture in people with rheumatoid arthritis aged under 50 than those in older age groups. The study shows that the risk of fracture before age 50 remains significantly higher in those with rheumatoid arthriti...
