MR Measures of Small Bowel Wall T2 Are Associated With Increased Permeability (2020)
Journal Article

Background: Increased small bowel permeability leads to bacterial translocation, associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Biomarkers are needed to evaluate these changes in vivo, stratify an individual's risk, and evaluate the efficacy of...

Thiopurine monotherapy is effective in ulcerative colitis but significantly less so in Crohn’s disease: long-term outcomes for 11 928 patients in the UK inflammatory bowel disease bioresource (2020)
Journal Article

Objective Thiopurines are widely used as maintenance therapy in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) but the evidence base for their use is sparse and their role increasingly questioned. Using the largest series reported to date, we assessed the long-ter...

Experiences of using vedolizumab in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease in the East Midlands UK – a retrospective observational study (2020)
Journal Article

Purpose Clinical trials have demonstrated efficacy of vedolizumab in ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn’s disease (CD). Further real-world data is needed to inform clinical practice. The primary outcome was to assess corticosteroid-free and clinical...

Simultaneous measurement of gastric emptying of a soup test meal using MRI and gamma scintigraphy (2020)
Journal Article

Measurement of gastric emptying is of clinical value for a range of conditions. Gamma scintigraphy (GS) has an established role, but the use of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has recently increased. Previous comparison studies between MRI and GS sh...

Systematic review: the impact of inflammatory bowel disease-related fatigue on health-related quality of life (2020)
Journal Article

Background: Fatigue is frequently reported in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and impacts on Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL). HRQoL has not been systematically reviewed in IBD fatigue. Aim: To investigate what impact IBD fatigue has on HR... Read More about Systematic review: the impact of inflammatory bowel disease-related fatigue on health-related quality of life.
