Current Use of EEN in Pre-Operative Optimisation in Crohn’s Disease (2021)
Journal Article

Despite the increasing array of medications available for the treatment of Crohn’s disease and a focus on mucosal healing, approximately 35% of patients with Crohn’s disease undergo bowel surgery at some stage. The importance of nutritional optimisat... Read More about Current Use of EEN in Pre-Operative Optimisation in Crohn’s Disease.

Quantitative magnetic resonance imaging in perianal crohn’s disease at 1.5 and 3.0 T: A feasibility study (2021)
Journal Article

Perianal Crohn’s Disease (pCD) is a common manifestation of Crohn’s Disease. Absence of reliable disease measures makes disease monitoring unreliable. Qualitative MRI has been increasingly used for diagnosing and monitoring pCD and has shown potentia...

Diagnostic Accuracy of Non-Invasive Imaging for Detection of Colonic Inflammation in Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (2021)
Journal Article

Endoscopy is the gold standard for objective assessment of colonic disease activity in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Non-invasive colonic imaging using bowel ultrasound (US), computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) may have...

Review article: The aetiology of fatigue in inflammatory bowel disease and potential therapeutic management strategies (2021)
Journal Article

Background: Fatigue is the inability to achieve or maintain an expected work output resulting from central or peripheral mechanisms. The prevalence of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) fatigue can reach 86% in active disease, persisting in 50%-52% of...

Clinical Utility of small bowel ultrasound assessment of Crohn’s Disease in Adults: A systematic scoping review (2021)
Journal Article

Background: Ultrasound is an alternative to Magnetic Resonance Enterography, and has the potential to significantly reduce waiting times, expedite clinical decision making and improve patient experience. Point of care ultrasound is an advantage of th... Read More about Clinical Utility of small bowel ultrasound assessment of Crohn’s Disease in Adults: A systematic scoping review.

Test–retest assessment of non-contrast MRI sequences to characterise and quantify the small bowel wall in healthy participants (2021)
Journal Article

Objective: Quantitative Magnetic Resonance Imaging sequences have been investigated as objective imaging biomarkers of fibrosis and inflammation in Crohn’s disease. Aim: To determine the repeatability and inter- and intra-observer agreement of these... Read More about Test–retest assessment of non-contrast MRI sequences to characterise and quantify the small bowel wall in healthy participants.

Journal Article

The Gut–Brain Axis and Its Role in Controlling Eating Behavior in Intestinal Inflammation (2021)
Journal Article

Malnutrition represents a major problem in the clinical management of the inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Presently, our understanding of the cross-link between eating behavior and intestinal inflammation is still in its infancy. Crohn’s disease...

Assessment, endoscopy, and treatment in patients with acute severe ulcerative colitis during the COVID-19 pandemic (PROTECT-ASUC): a multicentre, observational, case-control study (2021)
Journal Article

Background There is a paucity of evidence to support safe and effective management of patients with acute severe ulcerative colitis during the COVID-19 pandemic. We sought to identify alterations to established conventional evidence-based management...

SARS-CoV-2 vaccination for patients with inflammatory bowel disease: a British Society of Gastroenterology Inflammatory Bowel Disease section and IBD Clinical Research Group position statement (2021)
Journal Article

SARS-CoV2 has caused a global health crisis and mass vaccination programmes provide the best opportunity for controlling transmission and protecting populations. Despite the impressive clinical trial results of the BNT162b2 (Pfizer/BioNTech), ChAdOx1...
