Outcomes of nosocomial viral respiratory infections in high-risk neonates (2016)
Journal Article

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Neonatal respiratory disease, particularly bronchopulmonary dysplasia, remains one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in newborn infants. Recent evidence suggests nosocomially acquired viral respiratory tract... Read More about Outcomes of nosocomial viral respiratory infections in high-risk neonates.

Do student nurses experience Imposter Phenomenon? An international comparison of Final Year Undergraduate Nursing Students readiness for registration (2016)
Journal Article

Background: The transition shock sometimes associated with moving from student to registered nurse can lead to feelings of self-doubt and insecurity especially with the increased expectations and responsibilities that registration brings. Known as Im... Read More about Do student nurses experience Imposter Phenomenon? An international comparison of Final Year Undergraduate Nursing Students readiness for registration.

Circles of support and accountability: the characteristics of core members in England and Wales (2016)

Staff experience of harassment and stalking behaviour by patients (2016)
Journal Article

Staff from one National Health Service (NHS) Trust in England completed an online survey (N = 590) about their experience of intrusive behaviours from patients. These experiences were categorised into either stalking or harassment and compared in ter... Read More about Staff experience of harassment and stalking behaviour by patients.

Iterated local search using an add and delete hyper- heuristic for university course timetabling (2016)
Journal Article

Hyper-heuristics are (meta-)heuristics that operate at a higher level to choose or generate a set of low-level (meta-)heuristics in an attempt of solve difficult optimization problems. Iterated local search (ILS) is a well-known approach for discrete... Read More about Iterated local search using an add and delete hyper- heuristic for university course timetabling.

Exome-wide analysis of rare coding variation identifies novel associations with COPD and airflow limitation in MOCS3, IFIT3 and SERPINA12 (2016)
Journal Article

Background Several regions of the genome have shown to be associated with COPD in genome-wide association studies of common variants. Objective To determine rare and potentially functional single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated...

A thermal cycling reliability study of ultrasonically bonded copper wires (2016)
Journal Article

In this work we report on a reliability investigation regarding heavy copper wires ultrasonically bonded onto active braze copper substrates. The results obtained from both a non-destructive approach using 3D X-ray tomography and shear tests showed n...
