Effect of Gender On Unplanned Readmissions After Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (From The Nationwide Readmissions Database) (2018)
Journal Article
Kwok, C., Potts, J., Gulati, M., Alasnag, M., Rashid, M., Shoaib, A., …Mamas, M. (2018). Effect of Gender On Unplanned Readmissions After Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (From The Nationwide Readmissions Database). American Journal of Cardiology, 810-817. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.amjcard.2017.12.032

Women who undergo percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) are at higher risk of adverse outcomes compared with men, but it is unknown whether gender affects early unplanned rehospitalization. We analyzed 832,753 patients who underwent PCI from 2013...

Dermal absorption of testosterone in human and pig skin in vitro (2018)
Journal Article
(2018). Dermal absorption of testosterone in human and pig skin in vitro. Toxicology in Vitro, 71-77. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tiv.2017.12.014

The OECD test guideline 428 for the assessment of dermal absorption in vitro has been in force for more than a decade. Various sectors of industry utilise the method for the registration of chemical products. These include the Agrochemical and Cosmet...

Development of a clinical care pathway for anaemic patients (2018)
Thesis
Ballal, M. (2018). Development of a clinical care pathway for anaemic patients. (Thesis). Keele University. Retrieved from https://keele-repository.worktribe.com/output/418240

Improving cancer survival in the UK is one of the leading items on the agenda of the government. Survival from gastrointestinal cancer is yet to come into line with Europe. In 2000 the department of health (DoH) introduced guidelines for referral of... Read More about Development of a clinical care pathway for anaemic patients.

The potential of umbilical cord cells, autologous bone marrow stromal cells and autologous chondrocytes for bone and cartilage repair (2018)
Thesis
Bhattacharjee, A. (2018). The potential of umbilical cord cells, autologous bone marrow stromal cells and autologous chondrocytes for bone and cartilage repair. (Thesis). Keele University. Retrieved from https://keele-repository.worktribe.com/output/410400

Aims
To evaluate the in vitro potential of umbilical cord(UC)-derived cells as an allogeneic cell source that could be used ‘off-the-shelf’ in orthopaedics for bone and cartilage regeneration. The study also assesses the in-vivo efficacy of cell the...

Defining a role for the mesenchymal stem cell secretome in inflammatory response suppression (2018)
Thesis
Merkhan, M. M. (2018). Defining a role for the mesenchymal stem cell secretome in inflammatory response suppression. (Thesis). Keele University. Retrieved from https://keele-repository.worktribe.com/output/410396

Human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) have multiple potential roles in regenerative medicine. These roles revolve around the exploitation of their multipotent differentiation potential, their immunogenic privilege, or the broad range of molecules they...

Evaluation of drug combinations to sensitize ovarian cancer cells to chemotherapy (2018)
Thesis
Abo Donia, M. N. A. (2018). Evaluation of drug combinations to sensitize ovarian cancer cells to chemotherapy. (Thesis). Keele University. Retrieved from https://keele-repository.worktribe.com/output/410399

Ovarian cancer is a complex disease characterized by low incidence, accounting for about 4% of cancer diagnoses in women, but with rapid progression and higher mortality rate than any other gynecological malignancy. Approximately 70 % of the cases ar... Read More about Evaluation of drug combinations to sensitize ovarian cancer cells to chemotherapy.

Towards monitoring of the progress of chemical reactions using a novel plasma-assisted desorption ionisation mass spectrometry methodology (2018)
Thesis

Evaluation of the Mevalonate Pathway as a Target for the Treatment of Ovarian Cancer (2018)
Thesis
Abdullah, M. I. (2018). Evaluation of the Mevalonate Pathway as a Target for the Treatment of Ovarian Cancer. (Thesis). Keele University. Retrieved from https://keele-repository.worktribe.com/output/410387

Ovarian cancer is the 5th leading cause of cancer-related death. The disease responds initially to treatment which is most often surgical cytoreduction followed by chemotherapy. The primary response rates to chemotherapy are approximately 80%. Unfort... Read More about Evaluation of the Mevalonate Pathway as a Target for the Treatment of Ovarian Cancer.

Exploring the impact of hypoxia mimetic agents on multipotent stem cell biology (2018)
