Inequities in inflammatory bowel disease care: a Tasmanian case study with proposed solutions
Abstract There is well‐recognised inequity of care for people treated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) between metropolitan and regional areas. We aim to describe these barriers to care using Tasmania as a case example and to suggest solutions for addressing these barriers that can be used in Tasmania and beyond.

Successful pregnancies with thiopurine-allopurinol co-therapy for inflammatory bowel disease [PDF]
Background: Thiopurines are an effective treatment for moderate to severe inflammatory bowel disease [IBD] and can be used safely in pregnancy. Combining allopurinol with a lower dose of thiopurine can improve clinical efficacy and bypass some adverse ...

Direct evidence of singlet molecular oxygen [O2 (1Δg)] production from UVA excited 6‐thioguanine
6‐Thioguanine (6‐TGua) is incorporated into DNA as a purine analogue, inhibiting cell replication. Patients treated with 6‐TGua are more prone to developing skin cancer due to the photoexcitation of 6‐TGua by UVA radiation (as illustrated in the Jablonski diagram). Upon exposure to UVA, the excited 6‐TGua generates 1O2.

Growth in Paediatric Inflammatory Bowel Disease
ABSTRACT Impaired linear growth is a common, clinically meaningful complication of paediatric inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), particularly Crohn's disease, arising from the combination of chronic intestinal inflammation, undernutrition, dysfunction of the growth hormone–insulin‐like growth factor‐1 axis, and iatrogenic effects such as glucocorticoid ...

Synthesis and Quantitative Structure–Activity Relationship of Imidazotetrazine Prodrugs with Activity Independent of O6-Methylguanine-DNA-methyltransferase, DNA Mismatch Repair and p53. [PDF]
The antitumor prodrug Temozolomide is compromised by its dependence for activity on DNA mismatch repair (MMR) and the repair of the chemosensitive DNA lesion, O6-methylguanine (O6-MeG), by O6-methylguanine-DNA-methyltransferase (EC 2.1.1.63, MGMT). Tumor
