Gastroenterology, 152(5), 1078-1089. https://doi.org/10.1053/j.gastro.2016.12.016

Background & aims: We performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) to identify genetic risk factors for drug-induced liver injury (DILI) from licensed drugs without previously reported genetic risk factors. Methods: We performed a GWAS of 862 pe...

© 2016 The Author(s). This prospective observational study investigated monocyte cytokine responses to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in patients with obstructive jaundice (OJ) before and after endoscopic biliary drainage. Dendritic cell (DC) subsets and t... Read More about Immune dysfunction in patients with obstructive jaundice before and after endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography.

The detection of oesophageal varices using a novel, disposable, probe-based transnasal endoscope: a prospective diagnostic pilot study (2016)
Journal Article

Background & Aims Screening for oesophageal varices (OV) using conventional oesophagogastroduodenoscopy (C-OGD) is invasive and requires costly monitoring, recovery, and decontamination facilities. We aimed to evaluate the technical feasibility, acc...
