Risk-stratified monitoring for thiopurine toxicity in immune-mediated inflammatory diseases: prognostic model development, validation, and, health economic evaluation (2023)
Journal Article
Nakafero, G., Card, T., Grainge, M. J., Williams, H. C., Taal, M. W., Aithal, G. P., …Abhishek, A. (2023). Risk-stratified monitoring for thiopurine toxicity in immune-mediated inflammatory diseases: prognostic model development, validation, and, health economic evaluation. eClinicalMedicine, 64, Article 102213. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.eclinm.2023.102213

Background: Patients established on thiopurines (e.g., azathioprine) are recommended to undergo three-monthly blood tests for the early detection of blood, liver, or kidney toxicity. These side-effects are uncommon during long-term treatment. We deve...

Evaluation of common prescription analgesics and adjuvant analgesics as markers of suicide risk: a longitudinal population-based study in England (2023)
Journal Article
Alothman, D., Tyrrell, E., Lewis, S., Card, T., & Fogarty, A. W. (2023). Evaluation of common prescription analgesics and adjuvant analgesics as markers of suicide risk: a longitudinal population-based study in England. The Lancet Regional Health Europe, 32, Article 100695. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.lanepe.2023.100695

Background: Analgesics prescriptions may provide a marker for identifying individuals at higher risk of suicide. In particular, awareness of which analgesics are implicated may help clinicians assess and modify risk. Method: A case–control study in E...

BMJ, 381, Article e074678. https://doi.org/10.1136/bmj-2022-074678

OBJECTIVE: To develop and validate a prognostic model to inform risk stratified decisions on frequency of monitoring blood tests during long term methotrexate treatment. DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study. SETTING: Electronic health records within th...

Journal Article
West, J., Stilwell, P., Liu, H., Ban, L., Bythell, M., Card, T., …Crooks, C. (2023). 1-year survival in haemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis: a nationwide cohort study from England 2003–2018. Journal of Hematology and Oncology, 16, Article 56. https://doi.org/10.1186/s13045-023-01434-4

Haemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a lethal syndrome of excessive immune activation. We undertook a nationwide study in England of all cases of HLH diagnosed between 2003 and 2018, using linked electronic health data from hospital admission...
