The diet of Pteropus voeltzkowi, an endangered fruit bat endemic to Pemba Island, Tanzania (1997)
Journal Article
ENTWISTLE, A., & CORP, N. (1997). The diet of Pteropus voeltzkowi, an endangered fruit bat endemic to Pemba Island, Tanzania. African journal of ecology,

The diet of the Pemba flying fox Pteropus voeltzkowi, a species endemic to the island of Pemba off Tanzania, was investigated. Faecal pellets, ejecta and dropped fruits were collected from under roosts to facilitate dietary analysis. This was supplem...

Apparent Absorption Efficiency and Gut Morphometry of Wood Mice, Apodemus sylvaticus , from Two Distinct Populations with Different Diets (1997)
Journal Article
Corp, N., Gorman, M., & Speakman, J. (1997). Apparent Absorption Efficiency and Gut Morphometry of Wood Mice, Apodemus sylvaticus , from Two Distinct Populations with Different Diets. Physiological Zoology, 70(6), https://doi.org/10.1086/515876

Interpopulation variation in the diet of the wood mouse, Apode‐mus sylvaticus, is well documented. In this study, we examined the gut morphology and apparent absorption efficiencies of two populations of wood mice whose diet in the field was known to...

Truncal site and detoxifying enzyme polymorphisms significantly reduce time to presentation of further primary cutaneous basal cell carcinoma. (1997)
Journal Article
Lear, J. T., Smith, A. G., Heagerty, A. H., Bowers, B., Jones, P. W., Gilford, J., …Fryer, A. A. (1997). Truncal site and detoxifying enzyme polymorphisms significantly reduce time to presentation of further primary cutaneous basal cell carcinoma. Carcinogenesis, 18(8), 1499–1503. https://doi.org/10.1093/carcin/18.8.1499

Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the commonest cancer in Caucasians. Its incidence is rising and many patients develop multiple primary tumours at separate sites. Factors determining time between first primary tumour presentation and the next new primar...

Seasonal variation in the resting metabolic rate of male wood mice Apodemus sylvaticus from two contrasting habitats 15 km apart. (1997)
Journal Article
Corp, N., Gorman, M., & Speakman, J. (1997). Seasonal variation in the resting metabolic rate of male wood mice Apodemus sylvaticus from two contrasting habitats 15 km apart. Journal of Comparative Physiology B, 167, 229–239. https://doi.org/10.1007/s003600050069

Diurnal and nocturnal resting metabolic rates of winter- and summer-acclimatized adult male wood mice Apodemus sylvaticus from two adjacent populations, 15 km apart, were measured. One population lived in deciduous woodland, and experienced a narrowe...

Truncal tumor site is associated with high risk of multiple basal cell carcinoma and is influenced by glutathione S-transferase, GSTT1, and cytochrome P450, CYP1A1 genotypes, and their interaction. (1997)
Journal Article

Ranging behaviour and time budgets of male wood mice Apodemus sylvaticus in different habitats and seasons (1997)
Journal Article
Corp, N., Gorman, M. L., & Speakman, J. R. (1997). Ranging behaviour and time budgets of male wood mice Apodemus sylvaticus in different habitats and seasons. Oecologia, 109, 242–250. https://doi.org/10.1007/s004420050079

Radiotelemetry was used to measure the range areas, activity patterns and time budgets of 21 adult male wood mice (Apodemus sylvaticus) between May 1991 and August 1992. The study investigated variation in range, total distance travelled, speed of mo...

Tumor necrosis factor microsatellite haplotypes are different in male and female patients with RA. (1997)
Journal Article
Hajeer, A., John, S., Ollier, W. E., Silman, A. J., Dawes, P., Hassell, A., …Worthington, J. (1997). Tumor necrosis factor microsatellite haplotypes are different in male and female patients with RA. Journal of Rheumatology, 24(1), 217-219

We investigated whether tumor necrosis factor (TNF) microsatellite polymorphisms are associated with sex and age at disease onset in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). A case-control study was used to compare the frequencies of TNF microsatellite alleles in...

Glutathione S-transferase and cytochrome P450 genotypes as risk factors for laryngeal carcinoma (1997)
Journal Article
Jahnke, V., Strange, R., Matthias, C., & Fryer, A. (1997). Glutathione S-transferase and cytochrome P450 genotypes as risk factors for laryngeal carcinoma. European Archives of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology, 254, S147–S149. https://doi.org/10.1007/BF02439747

While cigarette smoking and alcohol consumption have been linked to laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), the role of genetic factors in determining individual susceptibility is unknown. We describe the role of allelism at the glutathione S-transf... Read More about Glutathione S-transferase and cytochrome P450 genotypes as risk factors for laryngeal carcinoma.
