(2015). Survey of patients' experiences and perceptions of care provided by nurse and pharmacist independent prescribers in primary care

BACKGROUND: In the United Kingdom, nurses and pharmacists who have undertaken additional post-registration training can prescribe medicines for any medical condition within their competence (non-medical prescribers, NMPs), but little is known about p...

Pre-eclampsia Diagnosis and Treatment Options: A Review of Published Economic Assessments (2015)
Journal Article
(2015). Pre-eclampsia Diagnosis and Treatment Options: A Review of Published Economic Assessments. PharmacoEconomics, 1069 -1082. https://doi.org/10.1007/s40273-015-0291-x

BACKGROUND: Pre-eclampsia is a pregnancy complication affecting both mother and fetus. Although there is no proven effective method to prevent pre-eclampsia, early identification of women at risk of pre-eclampsia could enhance appropriate application...

Nano-colloid printing of functionalised PLA-b-PEO copolymers: Tailoring the surface pattern of adhesive motif and its effect on cell attachment (2015)
Journal Article
Yang. (2015). Nano-colloid printing of functionalised PLA-b-PEO copolymers: Tailoring the surface pattern of adhesive motif and its effect on cell attachment

n this study, we investigate the preparation of surface pattern of functional groups on poly(lactide) (PLA) surfaces through the controlled deposition of core-shell self-assemblies based on functionalized PLA-b-PEO amphiphilic block copolymers from s...

Non-cardiovascular comorbidity, severity and prognosis in non-selected heart failure populations: A systematic review and meta-analysis (2015)
Journal Article
(2015). Non-cardiovascular comorbidity, severity and prognosis in non-selected heart failure populations: A systematic review and meta-analysis. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijcard.2015.05.180

BACKGROUND: Non-cardiovascular comorbidities are recognised as independent prognostic factors in selected heart failure (HF) populations, but the evidence on non-selected HF and how comorbid disease severity and change impacts on outcomes has not bee...

Conventional Protein Kinase C isoforms differentially regulate ADP- and thrombin-evoked Ca2+ signalling in human platelets (2015)
Journal Article
Harper. (2015). Conventional Protein Kinase C isoforms differentially regulate ADP- and thrombin-evoked Ca2+ signalling in human platelets. Cell Calcium, 577-588. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ceca.2015.09.005

Rises in cytosolic Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]cyt) are central in platelet activation, yet many aspects of the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. Most studies examine how experimental manipulations affect agonist-evoked rises in [Ca2+]cyt, b...

Early pregnancy biomarkers in pre-eclampsia: A systematic review and meta-analysis (2015)
Journal Article
Wu. (2015). Early pregnancy biomarkers in pre-eclampsia: A systematic review and meta-analysis. International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 23035-23056. https://doi.org/10.3390/ijms160923035

Pre-eclampsia (PE) complicates 2%–8% of all pregnancies and is an important cause of perinatal morbidity and mortality worldwide. In order to reduce these complications and to develop possible treatment modalities, it is important to identify women a...

A synthesis, in silico, in vitro and in vivo study of thieno[2,3-b]pyridine anticancer analogues (2015)
Journal Article
Arabshahi, H. J., van Rensburg, M., Pilkington, L. I., Jeon, C. Y., Song, M., Gridel, L., …Reynisson, J. (in press). A synthesis, in silico, in vitro and in vivo study of thieno[2,3-b]pyridine anticancer analogues. MedChemComm, 6(11), 1987-1997. https://doi.org/10.1039/c5md00245a

The anticancer activity of the thieno[2,3-b]pyridines was explored by altering the ring size of the cyclo-aliphatic moiety. Five-, six-, seven- and eight-membered derivatives were tested against the NCI60 tumour cell panel. According to this assay th...
