Journal Article
Moult, A., Aries, A., Bailey, P., & Paskins, Z. (2024). Reflecting on activities which support public involvement within an evaluation of public involvement reports from facilities funded by the national institute for health and care research: a co-produced commentary. Research Involvement and Engagement, 10(1), 46. https://doi.org/10.1186/s40900-024-00579-x

Although including public contributors as members of research teams is becoming common, there are few reflections on how they have been incorporated, and almost none of these reflections are co-produced with public contributors. This commentary, writ...

Is breathing frequency a potential means for monitoring exercise intensity in people with atrial fibrillation and coronary heart disease when heart rate is mitigated? (2024)
Journal Article
Buckley, J. P., Terada, T., Lion, A., & Reed, J. L. (in press). Is breathing frequency a potential means for monitoring exercise intensity in people with atrial fibrillation and coronary heart disease when heart rate is mitigated?. European Journal of Applied Physiology, https://doi.org/10.1007/s00421-024-05487-2

Moderate-intensity aerobic exercise is safe and beneficial in atrial fibrillation (AF) and coronary heart disease (CHD). Irregular or rapid heart rates (HR) in AF and other heart conditions create a challenge to using HR to monitor exercise intensity...
