Journal Article
Webster, K., Taylor, A., & Gaston, K. (2001). Oestrogen and progesterone increase the levels of apoptosis induced by the human papillomavirus type 16 E2 and E7 proteins. Journal of General Virology, 82(1), 201-213. https://doi.org/10.1099/0022-1317-82-1-201

Human papillomavirus (HPV) type 16 infects the genital tract and is generally acknowledged to be a causative agent of cervical cancer. HPV infection alone is not sufficient to induce cervical cancer and other factors such as steroid hormones are thou...

Journal Article
Barrett, J. W., & Baez, J. C. (2001). Integrability for Relativistic Spin Networks. Classical and Quantum Gravity, 18(4683-4),

The evaluation of relativistic spin networks plays a fundamental role in the Barrett-Crane state sum model of Lorentzian quantum gravity in 4 dimensions. A relativistic spin network is a graph labelled by unitary irreducible representations of the Lo... Read More about Integrability for Relativistic Spin Networks.

Legal madness in the nineteenth century (2001)
Journal Article

Parasitology, 123(4), https://doi.org/10.1017/S0031182001008605

We tested the null hypothesis that populations of hosts trapped in isolated neighbouring locations showing comparable habitat quality, should support similar helminth parasite communities. The study was undertaken in a 2-week period in late summer in...

Variations in chemoprophylaxis for meningococcal disease: a retrospective case note review, analysis of routine prescribing data and questionnaire of general practitioners (2001)
Journal Article
Marks, P., & Neal, K. (2001). Variations in chemoprophylaxis for meningococcal disease: a retrospective case note review, analysis of routine prescribing data and questionnaire of general practitioners

BACKGROUND: Invasive meningococcal disease is a significant cause of mortality and morbidity in the UK. Administration of chemoprophylaxis to close contacts reduces the risk of a secondary case. However, unnecessary chemoprophylaxis may be associated...
