British Journal of Dermatology, 190(4), 559-564. https://doi.org/10.1093/bjd/ljad430

Background: There is no evidence base to support the use of 6-monthly monitoring blood tests for the early detection of liver, blood and renal toxicity during established anti-tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) treatment. Objectives: To evaluate the...

Background Sulfasalazine-induced cytopenia, nephrotoxicity and hepatotoxicity is uncommon during long-term treatment. Some guidelines recommend 3 monthly monitoring blood tests indefinitely during long-term treatment while others recommend stopping m...

Abhishek, A., Grainge, M. J., Card, T., Williams, H. C., Taal, M. W., Aithal, G. P., …Riley, R. D. Risk-stratified monitoring for sulfasalazine toxicity: prognostic model development and validation

Background Sulfasalazine induced cytopenia, nephrotoxicity, and hepatotoxicity is uncommon during long-term treatment. Some guidelines recommend three monthly monitoring blood-tests indefinitely while others recommend stopping monitoring after one ye...

Influence of ursodeoxycholic acid on the mortality and malignancy associated with primary biliary cirrhosis: A population-based cohort study (2007)
Journal Article
Jackson, H., Solaymani-Dodaran, M., Card, T. R., Aithal, G. P., Logan, R., & West, J. (2007). Influence of ursodeoxycholic acid on the mortality and malignancy associated with primary biliary cirrhosis: A population-based cohort study. Hepatology, 46(4), 1131-1137. https://doi.org/10.1002/hep.21795

There is debate over the mortality and malignancy risk in people with primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) and whether this risk is reduced by use of ursodeoxycholic acid. To investigate this issue, we identified 930 people with PBC and 9,202 control subj...

Fracture Risk in People With Primary Biliary Cirrhosis: A Population-Based Cohort Study (2006)
Journal Article

Background & Aims: Controversy exists as to whether people with primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) have an increased risk of developing osteoporosis and the extent to which this may translate into an increased risk of fracture. We have performed a coh... Read More about Fracture Risk in People With Primary Biliary Cirrhosis: A Population-Based Cohort Study.
