Waiting times for radiotherapy: Variation over time and between cancer networks in southeast England (2005)
Journal Article
The aim of this study was to investigate variations in the length of time that patients with cancer wait from diagnosis to treatment with radiotherapy. A total of 57426 men and 71018 women diagnosed with cancer between 1992 and 2001 and receiving rad...

Microsynteny with rice and comparative genetic mapping were used to identify candidate orthologous sequences to the rice Hd1(Se1) gene in Lolium perenne and Festuca pratensis. A F. pratensis bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) library was screened... Read More about Identification of perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne (L.)) and meadow fescue (Festuca pratensis (Huds.)) candidate orthologous sequences to the rice Hd1(Se1) and barley HvCO1 CONSTANS-like genes through comparative mapping and microsynteny.
The Lyman-alpha forest opacity and the metagalactic hydrogen ionization rate at z~2-4 (2005)
Journal Article
Estimates of the metagalactic hydrogen ionization rate from the Lyman-alpha forest opacity in QSO absorption spectra depend on the complex density distribution of neutral hydrogen along the line-of-sight. We use a large suite of high resolution hydro... Read More about The Lyman-alpha forest opacity and the metagalactic hydrogen ionization rate at z~2-4.
A study to investigate the extent of delivery of an intervention in asthma, in a UK national community pharmacy chain, using mystery customers (2005)
Journal Article
Objective: The objective of this study was to implement a brief intervention in asthma within a UK national pharmacy chain, and through the use of mystery customers, measure the extent of delivery of the intervention over a 4-month period. Methods: M... Read More about A study to investigate the extent of delivery of an intervention in asthma, in a UK national community pharmacy chain, using mystery customers.
A spectrophotometric assay for fatty acid amide hydrolase suitable for high-throughput screening (2005)
Journal Article
Signalling via the endocannabinoids anandamide and 2-arachidonylglycerol appears to be terminated largely through the action of the enzyme fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH). In this report, we describe a simple spectrophotometric assay to detect FAAH... Read More about A spectrophotometric assay for fatty acid amide hydrolase suitable for high-throughput screening.
Expected, sensed, and desired: A framework for designing sensing-based interaction (2005)
Journal Article
Movements of interfaces can be analyzed in terms of whether they are expected, sensed, and desired. Expected movements are those that users naturally perform; sensed are those that can be measured by a computer; and desired movements are those that a...

A mandate to self archive? The role of open access institutional repositories (2005)
Journal Article
This paper argues that the best way to achieve major improvements in scholarly communication in the short and medium term is to make it mandatory to deposit research papers in open access institutional repositories. This is what the House of Commons... Read More about A mandate to self archive? The role of open access institutional repositories.
Narratives great and small: neighbourhood change, place and identity in Notting Hill (2005)
Journal Article
The area of Notting Hill in west London has been subject to much media coverage in recent years, which, along with substantial gentrification, has given rise to an image of the area as the epitome of fashionable London. This study investigates the vi... Read More about Narratives great and small: neighbourhood change, place and identity in Notting Hill.
Construction of a Festuca pratensis BAC library for map-based cloning in Festulolium substitution lines (2005)
Journal Article
Introgression in Festulolium is a potentially powerful tool to isolate genes for a large number of traits which differ between Festuca pratensis Huds. and Lolium perenne L. Not only are hybrids between the two species fertile, but the two genomes can...

Medium-term temporal stability of the helminth component community structure in bank voles (Clethrionomys glareolus) from the Mazury Lake District region of Poland (2005)
Journal Article
The structure of helminth communities in wild rodents is subject to seasonal variation, and is dependent on host age within years. Although between-year variation has been monitored, seldom has it been assessed rigorously by appropriate multifactoria...

Characterization of host-range and cell entry properties of the major genotypes and subtypes of hepatitis C virus (2005)
Journal Article
Because of the lack of a robust cell culture system, relatively little is known about the molecular details of the cell entry mechanism for hepatitis C virus (HCV). Recently, we described infectious HCV pseudo-particles (HCVpp) that were generated by...

Tagged polymerase chain reaction subtractive hybridization for the enrichment of phage display random peptide libraries (2005)
Journal Article
Affinity selection of phage display peptide libraries is routinely used for isolating peptides capable of binding a range of molecules, including antibodies and receptors. This process is most successful when the selecting molecule is relatively pure...

Relaxin Signaling from Natural Receptors (2005)
Journal Article
The heterodimeric peptide hormone relaxin in most cells appears to signal through a G-protein-coupled receptor, LGR7. Whereas in artificial cell systems, made by transfection of receptor-expressing gene constructs into cells normally not presenting t... Read More about Relaxin Signaling from Natural Receptors.
Time-dependent surface reactivity of Cd sorbed on calcite, hydroxylapatite and humic acid (2005)
Journal Article
Changes in the lability and local environment of Cd sorbed onto calcite, hydroxylapatite and humic acid have been investigated as a function of time (30 min-9 months) using a combination of X-ray adsorption spectroscopy (XAS) and isotopic dilution te...

Atomic force microscopy study of human amylin (20-29) fibrils (2005)
Journal Article
Here we present atomic force microscopy images of the fibrils formed by human amylin(20-29). This peptide is a fragment of the polypeptide amylin, the major proteinaceous component of amyloid deposits found in cases of type-II diabetes mellitus. Our...
