Controlled trial of oligopeptide versus amino acid diet in treatment of active Crohn's disease.

Mansfield, J C, Giaffer, M H, Holdsworth, C D

Elemental diets are effective in inducing remission in active Crohn's disease, but how they exert this therapeutic effect is unclear. In a previous study a whole protein containing diet proved less...

Quantitative assessment of overall inflammatory bowel disease activity using labelled leucocytes: a direct comparison between indium-111 and technetium-99m HMPAO methods.

Mansfield, J C, Giaffer, M H, Tindale, W B, Holdsworth, C D

The ideal imaging method in inflammatory bowel disease would reliably detect inflammation, identify the correct intestinal location, and assess the severity of the disease. The aim of this study was...
