Crohn disease (CD), one of the major chronic inflammatory bowel diseases, occurs anywhere in the gastrointestinal tract with discontinuous transmural inflammation. A number of studies have now demonstrated that genetic predisposition, environmental... Read More about A role for vimentin in Crohn disease.

MEPE is a novel regulator of growth plate cartilage mineralization (2012)
Journal Article
Staines, K. A., Mackenzie, N. C. W., Clarkin, C. E., Zelenchuk, L., Rowe, P. S., MacRae, V. E., & Farquharson, C. (2012). MEPE is a novel regulator of growth plate cartilage mineralization. Bone, 51(3), 418-430. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bone.2012.06.022

Matrix extracellular phosphoglycoprotein (MEPE) belongs to the SIBLING protein family which play key roles in biomineralization. Although the growth plates of MEPE-overexpressing mice display severe morphological disruption, the expression and functi...

Assessment of health related quality of life (HRQoL) in irritable bowel syndrome (2012)
Journal Article
Smith, G. D. (2012). Assessment of health related quality of life (HRQoL) in irritable bowel syndrome. Gastrointestinal Nursing, 10(5), 31-35. https://doi.org/10.12968/gasn.2012.10.5.31

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is one of the most common gastrointestinal disorders, classically involving symptoms of abdominal pain, distension and altered bowel function. However, the aetiology and natural history of this complex and often unpred... Read More about Assessment of health related quality of life (HRQoL) in irritable bowel syndrome.

Diagnosis and assessment of irritable bowel syndrome: current perspectives (2012)
Journal Article

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a long-term functional bowel condition; it is the most commonly diagnosed gastrointestinal (GI) condition in clinical practice. However, it remains a poorly understood disorder in which diagnosis and assessment can... Read More about Diagnosis and assessment of irritable bowel syndrome: current perspectives.
