Inequalities in participation in an organized national colorectal cancer screening programme: results from the first 2.6 million invitations in England

TL;DR: Overall uptake rates in this organized screening programme were encouraging, but nonetheless there was low uptake in the most ethnically diverse areas and a striking gradient by SES, with stronger effects in women and older people.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mural Inflammation in Crohn Disease: Location-Matched Histologic Validation of MR Imaging Features

TL;DR: Increasing mural thickness, high mural signal intensity on T2-weighted fat-saturated images, and a layered pattern of enhancement reflect histologic features of acute small-bowel inflammation in Crohn disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mural Crohn Disease: Correlation of Dynamic Contrast-enhanced MR Imaging Findings with Angiogenesis and Inflammation at Histologic Examination—Pilot Study

TL;DR: Data support the working hypothesis that microvessel permeability increases with disease chronicity and that tissue MVD is actually inversely related to mural blood flow, as well as certain MR imaging-derived mural hemodynamic parameters correlate with disease Chronicity and angiogenesis in Crohn disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Social variations in access to hospital care for patients with colorectal, breast, and lung cancer between 1999 and 2006: retrospective analysis of hospital episode statistics

Journal ArticleDOI

Inequalities in colorectal cancer screening participation in the first round of the national screening programme in England
