External memory aids for memory problems in people with multiple sclerosis: A systematic review (2015)
Journal Article
Goodwin, R., Lincoln, N., das Nair, R., & Bateman, A. (in press). External memory aids for memory problems in people with multiple sclerosis: A systematic review. Neuropsychological Rehabilitation, 27(8), 1081-1102. https://doi.org/10.1080/09602011.2015.1113997

Approximately 40-60% of people with multiple sclerosis (MS) have memory problems, which adversely impact on their everyday functioning. Evidence supports the use of external memory aids in people with stroke and brain injury, and suggests they may re...

Use of biochemical tests of placental function for improving pregnancy outcome (2015)
Journal Article
Heazell, A. E., Whitworth, M., Duley, L., & Thornton, J. (2015). Use of biochemical tests of placental function for improving pregnancy outcome. Cochrane Library, 2015(11), Article CD011202. https://doi.org/10.1002/14651858.CD011202.pub2

BACKGROUND:

The placenta has an essential role in determining the outcome of pregnancy. Consequently, biochemical measurement of placentally-derived factors has been suggested as a means to improve fetal and maternal outcome of pregnancy.

Hoxa cluster genes determine the proliferative activity of adult mouse hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (2015)
Journal Article
Lebert-Ghali, C.-É., Fournier, M., Kettyle, L. M., Thompson, A., Sauvageau, G., & Bijl, J. J. (2016). Hoxa cluster genes determine the proliferative activity of adult mouse hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells. Blood, 127(1), 87-90. https://doi.org/10.1182/blood-2015-02-626390

Determination of defined roles for endogenous homeobox (Hox) genes in adult hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell (HSPC) activity has been hampered by a combination of embryonic defects and functional redundancy. Here we show that conditional homozy... Read More about Hoxa cluster genes determine the proliferative activity of adult mouse hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells.

Structural organization of the corpus callosum predicts attentional shifts after continuous theta burst stimulation (2015)

Background: Interventions for parents of children experiencing emotional and/or behavioural difficulties can help to improve their children’s health, educational and social outcomes. However, the desirability and acceptability of screening and offeri...

Micronutrient and amino acid losses in acute renal replacement therapy (2015)
Journal Article
Oh, W. C., Gardner, D. S., & Devonald, M. A. (2015). Micronutrient and amino acid losses in acute renal replacement therapy. Current Opinion in Clinical Nutrition and Metabolic Care, 18(6), 593-598. https://doi.org/10.1097/MCO.0000000000000220

A wide range of renal replacement therapies is now available to support patients with acute kidney injury. These treatments utilize diffusion, convection or a combination of these mechanisms to remove metabolic waste products from the bloodstream. It...
