Local membrane versus systemic consequences of peritoneal dialysis treatment
Thesis
Lambie, M. R. (2015). Local membrane versus systemic consequences of peritoneal dialysis treatment

The primary intent of this thesis is to delineate the relative roles of local membrane and systemic consequences of peritoneal dialysis therapy, with particular reference to the role of inflammation and a severe, uncommon complication, encapsulating...

Measurement of frailty: development of a primary care framework and validation of an electronic Frailty Index
Thesis
Moody, D. K. (2016). Measurement of frailty: development of a primary care framework and validation of an electronic Frailty Index

Frailty measurement in primary care and at transitions of care is needed to enable timely identification of frailty, guide interventions and support proactive, integrated care. However, there is currently no single tool for frailty measurement in the...

Developing a non-invasive method for in vivo monitoring of forearm flexor tendon excursions during rehabilitation following surgical tendon repair
Thesis
Sharma, R. (2016). Developing a non-invasive method for in vivo monitoring of forearm flexor tendon excursions during rehabilitation following surgical tendon repair

Background: An injury to the wrist and hand can impact different anatomical structures. Any damage or cut to the flexor tendons can leave a devastating impact if not treated well and can therefore compromise our daily physical activities. Surgery and...

Role of Cyclin D1 polymorphisms and protein over-expression in clinical outcomes of colorectal cancer
Thesis
Sivakumar, R. (2017). Role of Cyclin D1 polymorphisms and protein over-expression in clinical outcomes of colorectal cancer

Cyclin D1 is a key regulatory protein in the progression of G1-S phase of the cell cycle. Activated Cyclin D1 in turn activates S phase proteins and thereby leading to cell proliferation. Over expression of Cyclin D1 leads S phase cell cycle progress... Read More about Role of Cyclin D1 polymorphisms and protein over-expression in clinical outcomes of colorectal cancer.
