Exploring Peer Instruction: Should Cohort Clicker Responses Appear During or After Polling? (2019)
Journal Article
Pearson. (2019). Exploring Peer Instruction: Should Cohort Clicker Responses Appear During or After Polling?. Journal of Chemical Education, 873-879. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.jchemed.9b00035

During problem-based learning sessions, undergraduate students were tasked with answering chemistry-related questions using clicker-handset technology in which the last response made by each handset would override any previous vote. The benefits, if... Read More about Exploring Peer Instruction: Should Cohort Clicker Responses Appear During or After Polling?.

Testosterone therapy: An assessment of the clinical consequences of changes in haematocrit and blood flow characteristics (2019)
Journal Article
(2019). Testosterone therapy: An assessment of the clinical consequences of changes in haematocrit and blood flow characteristics. Sexual Medicine Reviews, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.sxmr.2019.01.003

Introduction Clinical guidelines indicate that hematocrit should be monitored during testosterone replacement therapy (TTh), with action taken if a level of 0.54 is exceeded. Aim To consider the extent of changes in hematocrit and putative effec...
