Journal Article
Thomas, P. W., Blackwell, J. E. M., Herrod, P. J. J., Peacock, O., Singh, R., Williams, J. P., …Lund, J. N. (2019). Long-term outcomes of biological mesh repair following extra levator abdominoperineal excision of the rectum: an observational study of 100 patients. Techniques in Coloproctology, 23(8), 761-767. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10151-019-02056-0

Background
Current evidence suggests that pelvic floor reconstruction following extralevator abdominoperineal excision of rectum (ELAPER) may reduce the risk of perineal herniation of intra-abdominal contents. Options for reconstruction include mesh...

The acute transcriptional response to resistance exercise: impact of age and contraction mode (2019)
Journal Article
Deane, C. S., Ames, R. M., Phillips, B. E., Weedon, M. N., Willis, C. R., Boereboom, C., …Etheridge, T. (2019). The acute transcriptional response to resistance exercise: impact of age and contraction mode. Aging, 11(7), 2111-2126. https://doi.org/10.18632/aging.101904

Optimization of resistance exercise (RE) remains a hotbed of research for muscle building and maintenance. However, the interactions between the contractile components of RE (i.e. concentric (CON) and eccentric (ECC)) and age, are poorly defined. We...

Quick and simple: psoas density measurement is an independent predictor of anastomotic leak and other complications after colorectal resection (2019)
Journal Article
Herrod, P. J., Boyd-Carson, H., Doleman, B., Trotter, J., Schlichtemeier, S., Sathanapally, G., …Lund, J. N. (2019). Quick and simple: psoas density measurement is an independent predictor of anastomotic leak and other complications after colorectal resection.

Purpose: Radiologically-defined sarcopenia has been shown to predict negative outcomes after cancer surgery, however radiological assessment of sarcopenia often requires additional software and standardisation against anthropomorphic data. Measuring... Read More about Quick and simple: psoas density measurement is an independent predictor of anastomotic leak and other complications after colorectal resection.
