Journal ArticleDOI

Jack D. Hardcastle,Jocelyn Chamberlain,Michael Robinson,Sue Moss,Satya S Amar,Tom Balfour,Peter D. James,Christine M Mangham +7 more
TL;DR: Evidence from this study and other trials suggest that consideration should be given to a national programme of FOB screening to reduce CRC mortality in the general population.
Journal ArticleDOI
Measurement of gastrointestinal pH profiles in normal ambulant human subjects.
TL;DR: Gastrointestinal pH has been measured in 66 normal subjects using a pH sensitive radiotelemetry capsule passing freely through the gastrointestinal tract, enabling unconstrained measurements with normal ambulatory activities for up to 48 h during normal GI transit.
Journal ArticleDOI
Randomised, controlled trial of faecal occult blood screening for colorectal cancer. Results for first 107,349 subjects.
Jack D. Hardcastle,J. Chamberlain,J Sheffield,T. W. Balfour,N. C. Armitage,W. M. Thomas,G Pye,P.D. James,S. S. Amar,Sue Moss +9 more
TL;DR: Cancers detected by screening were at a less advanced pathological stage, but it is too early to show any effect of screening on mortality from colorectal cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of faecal occult blood screening on mortality from colorectal cancer: results from a randomised controlled trial
TL;DR: There was a 13% reduction in colorectal cancer mortality in the intervention group despite an uptake at first invitation of only approximately 50% and further follow up of this population is required to determine whether a significant reduction in the incidence of coloreCTal cancer will be achieved.
Journal ArticleDOI
Length of Barrett's oesophagus: an important factor in the development of dysplasia and adenocarcinoma.
TL;DR: Length of columnar lined oesophagus seems to be a significant risk factor in the development of dysplasia and subsequent carcinoma and intensive follow up of patients with columnarlined oesphagus greater than 8 cm in length is recommended.
