Quantification of differences in germination behaviour of pelleted and coated sugar beet seeds using X-ray Computed Tomography (X-ray CT). Biomedical Physics and Engineering Express, 3(4), https://doi.org/10.1088/2057-1976/aa7c3f

Seed enhancement technologies i.e. priming, pelleting and coating have been extensively9 used throughout the last century to improve crop yield and to reduce losses associated with pest infestation. However, until recently, it has not been possible t...

Introduction: Arthritic diseases are characterized by the degradation of collagenous and noncollagenous extracellular matrix (ECM) components in articular cartilage. The increased expression and activity of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) is partly...

Mass spectrometry is an analytical technique for the characterization of biological samples and is increasingly used in omics studies because of its targeted, nontargeted, and high throughput abilities. However, due to the large datasets generated, i... Read More about Application of machine learning to proteomics data: classification and biomarker identification in postgenomics biology.

Tobacco smoking and disability progression in multiple sclerosis: United Kingdom cohort study (2013)
Journal Article
Manouchehrinia, A., Tench, C. R., Maxted, J., Bibani, R. H., Britton, J., & Constantinescu, C. S. (2013). Tobacco smoking and disability progression in multiple sclerosis: United Kingdom cohort study. Brain, 136(7), https://doi.org/10.1093/brain/awt139

Tobacco smoking has been linked to an increased risk of multiple sclerosis. However, to date, results from the few studies on the impact of smoking on the progression of disability are conflicting. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects... Read More about Tobacco smoking and disability progression in multiple sclerosis: United Kingdom cohort study.

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 14, Article 349. https://doi.org/10.1186/1471-2474-14-349

Background: Osteoarthritis (OA) is an inflammatory disease of synovial joints involving the loss and degeneration of articular cartilage. The gold standard for evaluating cartilage loss in OA is the measurement of joint space width on standard radiog...
