Superior discrimination of speech pitch and its relationship to verbal ability in autism spectrum disorders
(2008-09)
Whilst hypersensitivity to pitch information appears to be characteristic of many individuals with autism spectrum disorders little is known about the implications of such a tendency for language acquisition and development. ...
Colorectal tumor vascularity: quantitative assessment with multidetector CT--do tumor perfusion measurements reflect angiogenesis?
(2008)
To establish the relationships between quantitative perfusion computed tomography (CT) parameters-specifically, primary tumor blood flow, blood volume, transit time, and permeability surface-area product-and immunohistologic ...
Biomechanics of ankle instability. Part 2 : Postural sway-reaction time relationship
(2008)
Purpose: To test the hypothesis that ankles with functional instability will demonstrate greater single-limb postural sway (PS) than their contralateral stable joint and stable healthy controls and to examine the relationship ...
Quantitative assessment of colorectal cancer tumor vascular parameters by using perfusion CT: influence of tumor region of interest
(2008)
To prospectively determine whether position and size of tumor region of interest (ROI) influence estimates of colorectal cancer vascular parameters at computed tomography (CT).
Positional relationship between leg rotation and lumbar spine during quiet standing
(IOS Press, 2008)
Healthcare professionals frequently evaluate spinal posture on visual assessment during the clinical examination. While this visual assessment of the spine has been shown to be unreliable, the use of a plumbline as to aid ...
Cannabinoid receptor CB2 localisation and agonist-mediated inhibition of capsaicin responses in human sensory neurons
(2008)
Cannabinoid receptor 2 (CB2) agonists provide the potential for treating chronic pain states without CNS effects associated with CB1 receptor activation. Animal models suggest that they act mainly via non-neuronal cells, ...
Biomechanics of ankle instability Part 1 : Reaction time to simulated ankle sprain
(2008)
Purpose: To test the hypothesis that ankles with functional instability will demonstrate slower muscular reaction times than their contralateral stable ankle (SA) and stable healthy controls to a simulated nonpathological ...
Electronic prescribing reduced prescribing errors in a pediatric renal outpatient clinic
(2008)
To assess the effect of an electronic prescribing (EP) system on the incidence and type of prescribing errors and the number of error-free visits.
