Presentation / Conference
Clayton, R., Vadher, N., White, S., & Chapman, S. (2018, January). An evaluation of paracetamol and ibuprofen prescribing at three high-spend GP practices in Sandwell and West Birmingham: A prescribing analysis study. Presented at ANNUAL CONFERENCE 2018, NATIONAL COUNCIL FOR VOLUNTARY ORGANISATIONS, LONDON, UK

Background
Paracetamol and ibuprofen are readily available without prescription for relief of pain and pyrexia caused by minor, self-limiting conditions. This study was part of Sandwell and West Birmingham Clinical Commissioning Group’s approach to...

A Review On The Effects Of Chemotherapy Drugs And Cooling Alone Or In Combination On The Cell Cycle (2018)
Journal Article
(2018). A Review On The Effects Of Chemotherapy Drugs And Cooling Alone Or In Combination On The Cell Cycle. https://doi.org/10.21275/ART20179577

When it comes to cell proliferation, this is a process strictly controlled by extracellular signals, such as nutrients, growth factors, temperature, and more. Together, these establish the cell cycle control mechanism, which is the core of cell proli...

Benefits of VCE-003.2, a cannabigerol quinone derivative, against inflammation-driven neuronal deterioration in experimental Parkinson's disease: possible involvement of different binding sites at the PPAR? receptor. Journal of Neuroinflammation, 19 - ?. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12974-018-1060-5

BACKGROUND: Neuroprotection with cannabinoids in Parkinson's disease (PD) has been afforded predominantly with antioxidant or anti-inflammatory cannabinoids. In the present study, we investigated the anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective properties o...

Investigation into Improving the Aqueous Solubility of the Thieno[2,3-b]pyridine Anti-Proliferative Agents (2018)
Journal Article
Reynisson, J. (2018). Investigation into Improving the Aqueous Solubility of the Thieno[2,3-b]pyridine Anti-Proliferative Agents. Molecules, https://doi.org/10.3390/molecules23010145

It is now established that the thieno[2,3-b]pyridines are a potent class of antiproliferatives. One of the main issues encountered for their clinical application is their low water solubility. In order to improve this, two strategies were pursued. Fi... Read More about Investigation into Improving the Aqueous Solubility of the Thieno[2,3-b]pyridine Anti-Proliferative Agents.

Journal Article
(2018). A Clinical and Biological Guide for Understanding Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia and Its Prevention. Oncologist, 84 -96. https://doi.org/10.1634/theoncologist.2017-0263

Chemotherapy-induced alopecia (CIA) is the most visibly distressing side effect of commonly administered chemotherapeutic agents. Because psychological health has huge relevance to lifestyle, diet, and self-esteem, it is important for clinicians to f...
