Bastiani, M., Cottaar, M., Fitzgibbon, S. P., Suri, S., Alfaro-Almagro, F., Sotiropoulos, S. N., Jbabdi, S., & Andersson, J. (2019). Automated quality control for within and between studies diffusion MRI data using a non-parametric framework for movement and distortion correction. NeuroImage, 184, 801-812. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuroimage.2018.09.073

Diffusion MRI data can be affected by hardware and subject-related artefacts that can adversely affect downstream analyses. Therefore, automated quality control (QC) is of great importance, especially in large population studies where visual QC is no...

Introduction

Thiazide diuretics are amongst the most widely used anti-hypertensive medicines worldwide. Thiazide-Induced Hyponatremia (TIH) is one of their most clinically significant adverse effects. A priori TIH must result from excessive saliur...

(2018). Physiological adaptations to resistance training in rats selectively bred for low and high response to aerobic exercise training. Experimental Physiology, https://doi.org/10.1113/ep087144

The purpose of this study was to determine whether rats selectively bred for low and high response to aerobic exercise training co-segregate for differences in muscle adaptations to ladder-climbing resistance training. Five high-responder (HRT) and f... Read More about Physiological adaptations to resistance training in rats selectively bred for low and high response to aerobic exercise training.

Short-term (<8 weeks) high-intensity interval training in diseased cohorts (2018)
Journal Article
Blackwell, J. E., Doleman, B., Herrod, P., Ricketts, S., Phillips, B. E., Lund, J. N., & Williams, J. P. (2018). Short-term (

Background & Aim:
Exercise training regimes can lead to improvements in measures of cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF), improved general health, and reduced morbidity and overall mortality risk. High intensity interval training (HIIT) offers a time-eff... Read More about Short-term (<8 weeks) high-intensity interval training in diseased cohorts.

The metabolic and molecular mechanisms of hyperammonaemia and hyperethanolaemia induced protein catabolism in skeletal muscle cells (2018)
Journal Article

Hyperammonaemia and hyperethanolaemia are thought to be driving factors behind skeletal muscle myopathy in liver disease i.e. cirrhosis. Despite this, the singular and combined impacts of ethanol and ammonia induced protein catabolism are poorly defi...
