Journal Article
West, J., Stilwell, P., Liu, H., Ban, L., Bythell, M., Card, T. R., …Crooks, C. J. (2022). Temporal Trends in the Incidence of Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis: A Nationwide Cohort Study From England 2003–2018. HemaSphere, 6(11), Article e797. https://doi.org/10.1097/HS9.0000000000000797

Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is rare, results in high mortality, and is increasingly being diagnosed. We aimed to quantify the incidence of diagnosed HLH and examine temporal trends in relation to age and associated diseases. Using nation...

Temporal trends in the incidence of haemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis: a nationwide cohort study from England 2003-2018 (2022)
Working Paper
West, J., Stilwell, P., Liu, H., Ban, L., Bythell, M., Card, T. R., …Crooks, C. J. Temporal trends in the incidence of haemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis: a nationwide cohort study from England 2003-2018

Background Haemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is rare, results in high mortality and is increasingly being diagnosed. Little is known about what is driving the apparent rise in the incidence of this disease. Methods Using national linked el...

Incidence and survival of haemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis: A population‐based cohort study from England (2021)
Journal Article
West, J., Card, T. R., Bishton, M. J., Lanyon, P., Ban, L., Bythell, M., …Crooks, C. J. (2022). Incidence and survival of haemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis: A population‐based cohort study from England. Journal of Internal Medicine, 291(4), 493-504. https://doi.org/10.1111/joim.13432

Background: Haemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a rare hyper-inflammatory condition with poor outcomes. Objectives: Few population-based estimates of the incidence and survival in adults exist. We aimed to provide these data for England. Met...

A validation study of the identification of haemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis in England using population-based health data (2021)
Journal Article
Bishton, M. J., Stilwell, P., Card, T. R., Lanyon, P., Ban, L., Elliss-Brookes, L., …Bythell, M. (2021). A validation study of the identification of haemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis in England using population-based health data. British Journal of Haematology, 194(6), 1039-1044. https://doi.org/10.1111/bjh.17768

We assessed the validity of coded healthcare data to identify cases of haemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH). Hospital Episode Statistics (HES) identified 127 cases within five hospital Trusts 2013–2018 using ICD-10 codes D76.1, D76.2 and D76.3....
