Steriod Therapy for Hyperemesis

I am trying to locate the latest research on the use of steriods to
treat hyperemesis. The study published in QJM 1996: 89 by R. Taylor of
the Royal Victoria Infirmary in the U.K. refers to a double-blind study
that was about to begin under C. Nelson-Piercy (at Queen Charlotte's
Hospital U.K.). Does anyone know the results, where they may have been
published. or how to contact (e-mail?) either of these researchers?
It seems that in the U.K. and Canada, this treatment is viewed as a
real breakthrough ("miracle cure") but that here in the U.S. there is
ignorance and/or apathy about the treatment of severe cases with this
treatment.
Do you know of anyone here working with steriods?
Thanks.
