Background: Atrial fibrillation and heart failure often coexist, causing substantial cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. β blockers are indicated in patients with symptomatic heart failure with reduced ejection fraction; however, the efficacy of...

Fracture healing following high energy tibial trauma: Ilizarov versus Taylor Spatial Frame (2014)
Journal Article
Menakaya, C., Rigby, A., Hadland, Y., Barron, E., & Sharma, H. (2014). Fracture healing following high energy tibial trauma: Ilizarov versus Taylor Spatial Frame. Annals of the Royal College of Surgeons of England, 96(2), 106-110. https://doi.org/10.1308/003588414x13824511650335

Introduction: The optimal treatment of high energy tibial fractures remains controversial and a challenging orthopaedic problem. The role of external fi xators for all these tibial fractures has been shown to be crucial. Methods: A fi ve-year consecu...

Development of a composite model derived from cardiopulmonary exercise tests to predict mortality risk in patients with mild-to-moderate heart failure (2014)
Journal Article
Ingle, L., Rigby, A. S., Sloan, R., Carroll, S., Goode, K. M., Cleland, J. G., & Clark, A. L. (2014). Development of a composite model derived from cardiopulmonary exercise tests to predict mortality risk in patients with mild-to-moderate heart failure. Heart, 100(10), 781-786. https://doi.org/10.1136/heartjnl-2013-304614

Objective: Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) is used to predict outcome in patients with mild-to-moderate heart failure (HF). Single CPET-derived variables are often used, but we wanted to see if a composite score achieved better predictive pow...

Acute hypertriglyceridemia induces platelet hyperactivity that is not attenuated by insulin in polycystic ovary syndrome. (2014)
Journal Article
Aye, M. M., Kilpatrick, E. S., Aburima, A., Wraith, K. S., Magwenzi, S., Spurgeon, B., …Atkin, S. L. (2014). Acute hypertriglyceridemia induces platelet hyperactivity that is not attenuated by insulin in polycystic ovary syndrome. Journal of the American Heart Association, 3(1), https://doi.org/10.1161/JAHA.113.000706

Atherothrombosis is associated with platelet hyperactivity. Hypertriglyceridemia and insulin resistance (IR) are features of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). The effect of induced hypertriglyceridemia on IR and platelet function was examined in youn...
