The Pattern of Underlying Cause of Death in Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease in England: A Record Linkage Study (2016)
Journal Article
Chu, T. P., Moran, G. W., & Card, T. R. (2016). The Pattern of Underlying Cause of Death in Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease in England: A Record Linkage Study. Journal of Crohn's and Colitis, 11(5), 578-585. https://doi.org/10.1093/ecco-jcc/jjw192

Background and Aims: Numerous studies have established that mortality risk in IBD patients is higher than the general population, but the causes of death have seldom been examined. We aimed to describe causes of death in IBD. Methods: A matched co...

Risk of venous thromboembolism in people with lung cancer: a cohort study using linked UK healthcare data (2016)
Journal Article
