Adrenal Incidentaloma: Prevalence and Referral Patterns From Routine Practice in a Large UK University Teaching Hospital (2021)
Journal Article
Hanna, F. W. F., Hancock, S., George, C., Clark, A., Sim, J., Issa, B. G., …Fryer, A. A. (2022). Adrenal Incidentaloma: Prevalence and Referral Patterns From Routine Practice in a Large UK University Teaching Hospital. Journal of the Endocrine Society, 6(1), https://doi.org/10.1210/jendso/bvab180

Context: Adrenal incidentalomas (AIs) are increasingly being identified during unrelated imaging. Unlike AI clinical management, data on referral patterns in routine practice are lacking. Objective: This work aimed to identify factors associated with...

The Variability In Glycosylated Haemoglobin (HbA1c) Testing Interval In People With Diabetes Is Linked To Long-Term Diabetes Control, Independent of HbA1c Test Interval (2021)
Journal Article
Heald, A., Holland, D., Stedman, M., Duff, C. J., Green, L., Scargill, J., …Fryer, A. A. (in press). The Variability In Glycosylated Haemoglobin (HbA1c) Testing Interval In People With Diabetes Is Linked To Long-Term Diabetes Control, Independent of HbA1c Test Interval. Endocrine, https://doi.org/10.1530/endoabs.77.p64

Worldwide guidance advocates regular HbA1c testing for people with diabetes mellitus, usually 2-4/yr. We previously showed that HbA1c testing frequency is linked to outcome in terms of HbA1c control. Here we examine the effect of variability (standar...

Journal Article
Holland, D., Heald, A. H., Stedman, M., Hanna, F., Wu, P., Duff, C., …Fryer, A. A. (2021). Assessment of the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on UK HbA1c testing: implications for diabetes management and diagnosis. Journal of Clinical Pathology, 76(3), https://doi.org/10.1136/jclinpath-2021-207776

AIMS: The COVID-19 pandemic, and the focus on mitigating its effects, has disrupted diabetes healthcare services worldwide. We aimed to quantify the effect of the pandemic on diabetes diagnosis/management, using glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) as surrog...

Inadequate post-partum screening for type 2 diabetes in women with previous gestation diabetes mellitus: a retrospective audit of practice over 17 years. (2021)
Journal Article
Ward, R. J., Fryer, A. A., Hanna, F. W., Spencer, N., Mahmood, M., Wu, P., …Duff, C. J. (2021). Inadequate post-partum screening for type 2 diabetes in women with previous gestation diabetes mellitus: a retrospective audit of practice over 17 years. International Journal of Clinical Practice, e14447 - ?. https://doi.org/10.1111/ijcp.14447

INTRODUCTION: Women with gestational diabetes (GDM) are at greatly increased risk of type 2 diabetes (T2DM). The UK guidance recommends screening for T2DM at around 6 weeks post-partum and annually thereafter. We evaluated conformity to this guidance...
