Students are human beings (discuss)
(2008)This article argues that the following seven thoughts are absent from most formal reflections on teaching : 1. We do not teach in an ideological vacuum; 2. We are not here to give students what they want, but rather what ... -
Students' perceptions of the OSCE : a valid assessment tool?
(2007-01)The results of a qualitative study into student midwives' perceptions of the Objective Structured Clinical Examination. -
Students’ Sense-Making of Events During the COVID-19 Pandemic and its Relationship to Mental Wellbeing
(2023-10-03)Superordinate constructions and meaning making structures are hypothesised by different psychological theories to provide individuals with a sense of integration of events or sense-making, which is associated to psychological ... -
Studies Exploring Non-Adherence in Adult Renal Transplant Recipients
(2020-11-10)Non-adherence to immunosuppressive medication is a major risk factor for poor clinical outcomes post-transplantation, including graft rejection and graft loss. However, it remains a common issue. Patients can experience ... -
Studies in mid-infrared spectropolarimetry - II : An atlas of spectra
(2000)We present 8–13 μm spectropolarimetry of 55 sources and 16–22 μm spectropolarimetry of six of these. This represents a substantial fraction of star formation regions that can be observed in this way with current technology ... -
Studies of Depression and Illness Representations in End-Stage Renal Disease
(2010-08-20)Depression is a substantial psychopathology encountered in the dialysis population yet its association with potentially modifiable psychological antecedents are not well known. Of these potential antecedents, individual’s ... -
Studies of Metal Poor T Dwarfs in UKIDSS
(University of Hertfordshire, 2013-07-31)I have used blue near-infrared colours to select a group of UKIDSS T dwarfs with spectral types later than T4. From amongst these I identify two kinematic halo T-dwarf candi- dates. Blue near-infrared colours have been ... -
Studies of rheniumtricarbonyl complexes of tripodal pyridyl-based ligands
(2010-04-05)The reaction of N-benzoyl and N-acetyl tris(pyridin-2-yl)methylamine 1b and 1c (LH = tpmbaH and tpmaaH) with [Re(CO)5Br] has been investigated and shown to proceed via the initial formation of a cationic rheniumtricarbonyl ... -
Studies of the reactions of tripodal pyridine-containing ligands with Re(CO)5Br leading to rheniumtricarbonyl complexes with potential biomedical applications
(2011)The complexes formed from the reaction of N-acylated tris-(pyridin-2-yl)methylamine (LH) with [Re(CO)5Br] depend on the structure of the ligand and the reaction conditions. Thus, while N-[1,1,1-tris-(pyridin-2-yl)methyl]acetamide ... -
Studies of Unexplained Inflammation in Haemodialysis and the Role of Endotoxin
(2019-07-29)Clinical outcomes for patients with end-stage kidney disease on haemodialysis remain poor and have similar mortality risk to some cancers. A significant proportion of haemodialysis patients have chronic unexplained ... -
Studies on cannabinoid effects in intestinal tissue and in neuroblastoma
(University of Hertfordshire, 2007)The growing numbers of putative receptors and allosteric sites in which cannabinoids have been observed to act upon has called in to question the established action of cannabinoids through solely the CB1 receptor in the ... -
Studies on Depression and Fatigue in People With End Stage Kidney Disease Receiving Haemodialysis
(2018-01-31)Depression is common in haemodialysis (HD) patients and is often unrecognised and undertreated, though associated with excess morbidity and mortality. Diagnosis is challenging due to symptom overlap with kidney failure, ... -
Studies On Formulation And Evaluation Of Ranitidine Floating Tablets
(2005-12-01)Present investigation highlights the formulation and optimization of floating tablets of ranitidine hydrochloride. Formulations were optimized for type of filler, different viscosity grades of hydroxypropylmethylcellulose ... -
Studies on mechanisms of splash dispersal of spores, using Pseudocercosporella herpotrichoides spores
(1984)Simulated raindrops, 4 or 5 mm in diameter, fell 13 m onto target water films, with Pseudocercosporella herpotrichoides spores incorporated into either drops or targets. Resulting splash droplets were collected on fixed ... -
Studies on mineral dust using airborne lidar, ground-based remote sensing, and in situ instrumentation
(2018-04-13)In August 2015, the AER-D campaign made use of the FAAM research aircraft based in Cape Verde, and targeted mineral dust. First results will be shown here. The campaign had multiple objectives: (1) lidar dust mapping for ... -
Studies on the Detection, Expression, Glycosylation, Dimerization, and Ligand Binding Properties of Mouse Siglec-E
(2017-01-20)CD33-related Siglecs are a family of proteins widely expressed on innate immune cells. Binding of sialylated glycans or other ligands triggers signals that inhibit or activate inflammation. Immunomodulation by Siglecs has ...
