To evaluate the effect of pharmaceutical care provided in addition to acute Geriatric Evaluation and Management (GEM) care on the appropriateness of prescribing.
Student research projects: the experiences of student dietitians, university faculty members, and collaborators
(2007)
Two universities in the United Kingdom made systematic attempts to increase the number of student dietitians' research projects that are supervised by university faculty members in conjunction with external collaborators ...
Localized and non-contact mechanical stimulation of dorsal root ganglion sensory neurons using scanning ion conductance microscopy
(2007)
Mechanosensitive ion channels convert external mechanical force into electrical and chemical signals in cells, but their physiological function in different tissues is not clearly understood. One reason for this is that ...
An investigation into the in vivo performance variability of pH responsive polymers for ileo-colonic drug delivery using gamma scintigraphy in humans
(2006-12)
Gastrointestinal performance of tablets coated with pH responsive acrylic polymers (Eudragit) was investigated in human volunteers. Tablet cores were coated with Eudragit S dissolved in ethanol (organic), Eudragit S aqueous ...
Is there a difference between the ability to kneel after unilateral and bilateral total knee replacement?
(2006)
This study investigates the difference between the ability to kneel in patients after unilateral and bilateral total knee replacement. We used the Oxford knee questionnaire to assess knee function, and an additional question ...
Systemic delivery of morpholino oligonucleotide restores dystrophin expression bodywide and improves dystrophic pathology
(2006)
For the majority of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) mutations, antisense oligonucleotide (AON)-mediated exon skipping has the potential to restore a functional protein. Here we show that weekly intravenous injections of ...
Sensing of lysophospholipids by TRPC5 calcium channel
(2006)
TRPC calcium channels are emerging as a ubiquitous feature of vertebrate cells, but understanding of them is hampered by limited knowledge of the mechanisms of activation and identity of endogenous regulators. We have ...
Derivation and validation of a new global method for assessing nutritional status in patients with cirrhosis
(2006)
Accurate assessments of nutritional status are difficult to obtain in patients with cirrhosis. The aim of this study was to devise and validate a global nutritional assessment scheme for use in this patient population. ...
Randomized controlled trial of specific spinal stabilization exercises and conventional physiotherapy for recurrent low back pain
(2006)
Pragmatic, multicentered randomized controlled trial, with 12-month follow-up.
Postural differences in the shoulder girdle during normal locomotion in treadmill vs. over ground walking
(IOS Press, 2006)
In a clinical setting, most musculoskeletal assessment related to gait is undertaken using a treadmill which is additionally widely used during gait and neurological rehabilitation. Although previous studies have reported ...
