Correlation of central and peripheral corneal thickness in healthy corneas (2011)
Journal Article
Fares, U., Otri, A. M., Al-Aqaba, M. A., & Dua, H. S. (2012). Correlation of central and peripheral corneal thickness in healthy corneas. Contact Lens and Anterior Eye, 35(1), 39-45. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.clae.2011.07.004

Purpose To study the thickness profile of the normal cornea in order to establish any correlation between central and peripheral points. Methods Sixty-seven eyes of 40 patients were subjected to central corneal thickness measurement (CCT) with a...

Increased Expression of Hepcidin and Toll-Like Receptors 8 and 10 in Viral Keratitis (2011)
Journal Article
Mohammed, I., Abedin, A., Tsintzas, K., Abedin, S. A., Otri, A. M., Hopkinson, A., …Dua, H. S. (2011). Increased Expression of Hepcidin and Toll-Like Receptors 8 and 10 in Viral Keratitis. Cornea, 30(8), 899-904. https://doi.org/10.1097/ICO.0b013e31820126e5

Purpose: Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) and toll-like receptors (TLRs) form part of the “chemical barrier” of the ocular surface to microbes. Evidence suggests that pathogen recognition by TLR releases AMPs, altering AMP-TLR profiles in pathologic...

Tinnitus referral pathways within the National Health Service in England: a survey of their perceived effectiveness among audiology staff (2011)
Journal Article
Gander, P. E., Hoare, D. J., Collins, L. C., Smith, S., & Hall, D. A. (2011). Tinnitus referral pathways within the National Health Service in England: a survey of their perceived effectiveness among audiology staff. BMC Health Services Research, 11(162), https://doi.org/10.1186/1472-6963-11-162

Background: In the UK, audiology services deliver the majority of tinnitus patient care, but not all patients experience the same level of service. In 2009, the Department of Health released a Good Practice Guide to inform commissioners about key asp...
