SABRE: a multicentre randomised control trial of nebulised hypertonic saline in infants hospitalised with acute bronchiolitis (2014)
Journal Article
Everard, M. L., Hind, D., Ugonna, K., Freeman, J., Bradburn, M., Cooper, C. L., Cross, E., Maguire, C., Cantrill, H., Alexander, J., McNamara, P. S., & Sprange, K. (2014). SABRE: a multicentre randomised control trial of nebulised hypertonic saline in infants hospitalised with acute bronchiolitis. Thorax, 69(12), https://doi.org/10.1136/thoraxjnl-2014-205953

Aim: Acute bronchiolitis is the commonest cause for hospitalisation in infancy. Supportive care remains the cornerstone of current management and no other therapy has been shown to influence the course of the disease. It has been suggested that addin...

Vocational rehabilitation following traumatic brain injury: what is the evidence for clinical practice? (2014)
Journal Article
Phillips, J., & Radford, K. A. (2014). Vocational rehabilitation following traumatic brain injury: what is the evidence for clinical practice?. Advances in Clinical Neuroscience and Rehabilitation, 14(5),

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) typically affects young adults with potentially many years of working life ahead of them. For people who were in work prior to their injury, return to work (RTW) is a common goal. However, a systematic review of RTW rat...

Interventions for deliberately altering blood pressure in acute stroke (2014)
Journal Article
Bath, P. M., & Krishnan, K. (2014). Interventions for deliberately altering blood pressure in acute stroke. Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2014(10), Article CD000039. https://doi.org/10.1002/14651858.CD000039.pub3

Background: It is unclear whether blood pressure should be altered actively during the acute phase of stroke. This is an update of a Cochrane review first published in 1997, and previously updated in 2001 and 2008.
Objectives: To assess the clinical... Read More about Interventions for deliberately altering blood pressure in acute stroke.

Journal Article
Roberts, A., Wales, J., Smith, H., Sampson, C. J., Jones, P., & James, M. (2016). A randomised controlled trial of laser scanning and casting for the construction of ankle–foot orthoses. Prosthetics and Orthotics International, 40(2), 253-261. https://doi.org/10.1177/0309364614550263

Study Design: Randomised controlled trial with blinding of orthotists and patients to the construction technique used. Background: Three-dimensional laser scanning has been used for patient measurement for cranial helmets and spinal braces. Ankle foo...

Evaluating the impact of the reconfiguration of gynaecology services at a University Hospital NHS trust in the United Kingdom (2014)
Journal Article
Choo, T., Deb, S., Wilkins, J., & Atiomo, W. (2014). Evaluating the impact of the reconfiguration of gynaecology services at a University Hospital NHS trust in the United Kingdom. BMC Health Services Research, 14(428), https://doi.org/10.1186/1472-6963-14-428

Background: The project aim was to investigate the impact of reconfiguring gynaecology services on the key
performance indicators of a University Hospital NHS Trust in the UK. The reconfiguration involved the centralisation
of elective gynaecology... Read More about Evaluating the impact of the reconfiguration of gynaecology services at a University Hospital NHS trust in the United Kingdom.

A systematic review investigating interventions that can help reduce consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages in children leading to changes in body fatness (2014)
Journal Article
Avery, A., Bostock, L., & McCullough, F. (2015). A systematic review investigating interventions that can help reduce consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages in children leading to changes in body fatness. Journal of Human Nutrition and Dietetics, 28, https://doi.org/10.1111/jhn.12267

Background

Both the prevalence of childhood obesity and the consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) have increased globally. The present review describes interventions that reduce the consumption of SSBs in children and determines whether...

POU2F1 activity regulates HOXD10 and HOXD11 promoting a proliferative and invasive phenotype in head and neck cancer (2014)
Journal Article
Sharpe, D. J., Orr, K. S., Moran, M., White, S. J., McQuaid, S., Lappin, T. R., Thompson, A., & James, J. A. (2014). POU2F1 activity regulates HOXD10 and HOXD11 promoting a proliferative and invasive phenotype in head and neck cancer. Oncotarget, 5(18), https://doi.org/10.18632/oncotarget.2492

HOX genes are master regulators of organ morphogenesis and cell differentiation during embryonic development, and continue to be expressed throughout post-natal life. To test the hypothesis that HOX genes are dysregulated in head and neck squamous ce...

The moving minimum audible angle is smaller during self motion than during source motion (2014)
Journal Article
Brimijoin, W. O., & Akeroyd, M. A. (2014). The moving minimum audible angle is smaller during self motion than during source motion. Frontiers in Neuroscience, 8, Article 273. https://doi.org/10.3389/fnins.2014.00273

We are rarely perfectly still: our heads rotate in three axes and move in three dimensions, constantly varying the spectral and binaural cues at the ear drums. In spite of this motion, static sound sources in the world are typically perceived as stab... Read More about The moving minimum audible angle is smaller during self motion than during source motion.
