Journal Article
Nor Aripin, K. N. B., Choonara, I., & Sammons, H. (2012). Systematic review of safety in paediatric drug trials published in 2007. European Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 68(2), https://doi.org/10.1007/s00228-011-1112-6

Background: There is now greater involvement of children in drug trials to ensure that paediatric medicines are supported by sound scientific evidence. The safety of the participating children is of paramount importance. Previous research shows that... Read More about Systematic review of safety in paediatric drug trials published in 2007.

An experimental programme of cyclic thermo-mechanical testing for a P91 power plant steel, under isothermal, and in-phase and out-of-phase thermo-mechanical, temperature-strain cycle conditions, has been implemented. Using the experimental data, an o... Read More about Thermo-mechanical fatigue testing and simulation using a viscoplasticity model for a P91 steel.

Saints and lovers: myths of the avant-garde in Michel Georges-Michel's Les Montparnos (2012)
Journal Article
Shingler, K. (2012). Saints and lovers: myths of the avant-garde in Michel Georges-Michel's Les Montparnos. French Cultural Studies, 23(1), https://doi.org/10.1177/0957155811427631

This article examines Michel Georges-Michel’s 1924 novel Les Montparnos as a study of the myths circulating around the Montparnasse avant-garde of the 1920s, and their function in relation to art. Key amongst these myths is the idea of art as a relig... Read More about Saints and lovers: myths of the avant-garde in Michel Georges-Michel's Les Montparnos.

Person centred dementia care: problems and possibilities (2012)
Journal Article
Argyle, E. (2012). Person centred dementia care: problems and possibilities. Working with Older People, 16(2), 69-77. https://doi.org/10.1108/13663661211231828

Purpose Dementia care is an issue of increasing policy focus, with person centred approaches becoming synonymous with quality provision in this area. However, the implementation and efficacy of this approach is difficult to measure and there are s... Read More about Person centred dementia care: problems and possibilities.

Semi-quantitative immunohistochemical detection of 5-hydroxymethyl-cytosine reveals conservation of its tissue distribution between amphibians and mammals (2012)
Journal Article

Semi-quantitative immunohistochemical detection of 5-hydroxymethyl-cytosine reveals conservation of its tissue distribution between amphibians and mammals. Epigenetics, 7(2), https://doi.org/10.4161/epi.7.2.18949

5-Hydroxymethyl-cytosine (5-hmC) is a form of modified cytosine, which has recently attracted a considerable attention due to its potential role in transcriptional regulation. According to several reports 5-hydroxymethyl-cytosine distribution is tiss...

General second-order scalar-tensor theory and self-tuning (2012)
Journal Article
Charmousis, C., Copeland, E. J., Saffin, P. M., & Padilla, A. (2012). General second-order scalar-tensor theory and self-tuning. Physical Review Letters, 108(5), Article 051101. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.108.051101

Starting from the most general scalar-tensor theory with second order field equations in four dimensions, we establish the unique action that will allow for the existence of a consistent self-tuning mechanism on FLRW backgrounds, and show how it can...

The LIMD1 protein bridges an association between the prolyl hydroxylases and VHL to repress HIF-1 activity (2012)
Journal Article
Foxler, D. E., Bridge, K. S., James, V., Webb, T. M., Mee, M., Wong, S. C. K., …Sharp, T. V. (2012). The LIMD1 protein bridges an association between the prolyl hydroxylases and VHL to repress HIF-1 activity. Nature Cell Biology, 14(2), 201-208. https://doi.org/10.1038/ncb2424

There are three prolyl hydroxylases (PHD1, 2 and 3) that regulate the hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs), the master transcriptional regulators that respond to changes in intracellular O2 tension1,2. In high O2 tension (normoxia) the PHDs hydroxylate t... Read More about The LIMD1 protein bridges an association between the prolyl hydroxylases and VHL to repress HIF-1 activity.

A European study investigating patterns of transition from home care towards institutional dementia care: The protocol of a RightTimePlaceCare study (2012)
Journal Article

Background: Health care policies in many countries aim to enable people with dementia to live in their own homes as long as possible. However, at some point during the disease the needs of a significant number of people with dementia cannot be approp...

We introduce the notion of subspace learning from image gradient orientations for appearance-based object recognition. As image data is typically noisy and noise is substantially different from Gaussian, traditional subspace learning from pixel inten...
