Colon length in pediatric health and constipation measured using magnetic resonance imaging and three dimensional skeletonization Open
Recent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies showed that colonic volumes in children are different between health and functional constipation. The length of the colon has however been rarely measured and principally using unphysiologica…

Colonic Volume Changes in Paediatric Constipation Compared to Normal Values Measured Using MRI Open
Background: Functional constipation in children is common. Management of this condition can be challenging and is often based on symptom reports. Increased, objective knowledge of colonic volume changes in constipation compared to health c…

Feasibility Study of a New Magnetic Resonance Imaging Mini‐capsule Device to Measure Whole Gut Transit Time in Paediatric Constipation Open
Objective: In England, 27,500 children are referred annually to hospital with constipation. An objective measure of whole gut transit time (WGTT) could aid management. The current standard WGTT assessment, the x‐ray radiopaque marker (ROM)…

OTH-003 Paediatric crohn’s disease patients in remission have a reduced skeletal muscle protein balance after feeding Open
Introduction Sarcopenia is common in active Crohn's disease (CD) and still prevalent in remission. This can lead to fatigue, physical inactivity and poor quality of life but the aetiology is unclear. We aimed to investigate the association…
