Risk of first venous thromboembolism in pregnant women in hospital: population based cohort study from England (2013)
Journal Article

Objective: To examine the potential for preventing venous thromboembolism during and after antepartum hospital admissions in pregnant women. Design: Cohort study using linked primary (Clinical Practice Research Datalink) and secondary (Hospital E...

Participatory development and analysis of a fuzzy cognitive map of the establishment of a bio-based economy in the Humber Region (2013)
Journal Article

Fuzzy Cognitive Mapping (FCM) is a widely used participatory modelling methodology in which stakeholders collaboratively develop a ‘cognitive map’ (a weighted, directed graph), representing the perceived causal structure of their system. This can be... Read More about Participatory development and analysis of a fuzzy cognitive map of the establishment of a bio-based economy in the Humber Region.

High-resolution replication profiles define the stochastic nature of genome replication initiation and termination (2013)
Journal Article

Eukaryotic genome replication is stochastic, and each cell uses a different cohort of replication origins. We demonstrate that interpreting high-resolution Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome replication data with a mathematical model allows quantificati...

Wild-type and innate immune-deficient mice are not susceptible to the Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (2013)
Journal Article

The Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) is a newly emerging highly pathogenic virus causing almost 50% lethality in infected individuals. The development of a smallanimal model is critical for the understanding of this virus and t...

Design and thermal performances of Semi-Parabolic Linear Fresnel Reflector solar concentration collector (2013)
Journal Article

A Semi-Parabolic Linear Fresnel Reflector (SPLFR) solar concentrator is proposed in this paper. The SPLFR is formed by linear plate mirrors whose edges located at a parabolic line. The ray trace simulation results show the SPLFR has the same concentr... Read More about Design and thermal performances of Semi-Parabolic Linear Fresnel Reflector solar concentration collector.

Temporary inhibition of dorsal or ventral hippocampus by muscimol: Distinct effects on measures of innate anxiety on the elevated plus maze, but similar disruption of contextual fear conditioning (2013)
Journal Article

Studies in rats, involving hippocampal lesions and hippocampal drug infusions, have implicated the hippocampus in the modulation of anxiety-related behaviors and conditioned fear. The ventral hippocampus is considered to be more important for anxiety...

Comparison of osteogenic differentiation of embryonic stem cells and primary osteoblasts revealed by responses to IL-1?, TNF-?, and IFN-? (2013)
Journal Article

There are well-established approaches for osteogenic differentiation of embryonic stem cells (ESCs), but few show direct comparison with primary osteoblasts or demonstrate differences in response to external factors. Here, we show comparative analysi... Read More about Comparison of osteogenic differentiation of embryonic stem cells and primary osteoblasts revealed by responses to IL-1?, TNF-?, and IFN-?.

The UK prevalence of hereditary haemorrhagic telangiectasia and its association with sex, socioeconomic status and region of residence: a population-based study (2013)
Journal Article

Background Hereditary haemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) is an autosomal dominant genetic disorder of aberrant blood vessel development characterised by arteriovenous malformations. HHT is associated with significant morbidity due to complications inc... Read More about The UK prevalence of hereditary haemorrhagic telangiectasia and its association with sex, socioeconomic status and region of residence: a population-based study.

Why don't healthcare professionals talk about sex?: a systematic review of recent qualitative studies conducted in the United Kingdom (2013)
Journal Article

Introduction Sexuality is considered to be an important aspect of holistic care, yet research has demonstrated that it is not routinely addressed in healthcare services. A greater understanding of this can be achieved through synthesizing qualitat...
