Journal Article
Fleming, K. M., Aithal, G. P., Card, T. R., & West, J. (2012). All-cause mortality in people with cirrhosis compared with the general population: a population-based cohort study. Liver International, 32(1), https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1478-3231.2011.02517.x

Background: Mortality due to cirrhosis has tripled over the last 30 years in the UK. However, we lack adequate, contemporary, population-based estimates of the excess mortality patients who are at risk compared with the general population.
Aim: To d... Read More about All-cause mortality in people with cirrhosis compared with the general population: a population-based cohort study.

Background Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is a key cause of liver disease but can be cured in more than 95% of patients. Around 70 000 people in England may have undiagnosed HCV infection and many more will not have been treated. Interventions to...

Journal Article
Oldfield, N. J., Bland, S. J., Taraktsoglou, M., Dos Ramos, F. J., Robinson, K., Wooldridge, K. G., & Ala'Aldeen, D. A. (2007). T-cell stimulating protein A (TspA) of Neisseria meningitidis is required for optimal adhesion to human cells. Cellular Microbiology, 9(2), 463-478. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1462-5822.2006.00803.x

T-cell stimulating protein A (TspA) is an immunogenic, T-cell and B-cell stimulating protein of Neisseria meningitidis. Sequence similarity between TspA and FimV, a Pseudomonas aeruginosa protein involved in twitching motility, suggested a link betwe...
