Journal Article
Birtwistle, J., Allsop, M. J., Bradshaw, A., Millares Martin, P., Sleeman, K. E., Twiddy, M., & Evans, C. J. (in press). Views of patients with progressive illness and carers about the role of digital advance care planning systems to record and share information: a qualitative study. Palliative medicine, https://doi.org/10.1177/02692163241255511

Background: Digital approaches are being explored internationally to support the elicitation, documentation and sharing of advance care planning information. However, views and experiences of patients and carers are little understood, impeding develo...

Home-based high intensity interval training in patients with intermittent claudication: a systematic review protocol (2024)
Journal Article
Prosser, J., Staniland, T., Harwood, A., Ravindhran, B., McGregor, G., Huang, C., …Pymer, S. (2024). Home-based high intensity interval training in patients with intermittent claudication: a systematic review protocol. Journal of Vascular Societies Great Britain and Ireland, 3(3), 155-159. https://doi.org/10.54522/jvsgbi.2024.103

Introduction: The aim of this systematic review is to consider the evidence base for home-based high intensity interval training (HIIT) in patients with intermittent claudication (IC). Prior knowledge of the evidence base suggests that there may be l...

Evaluating the Role of Ultrasound in Prostate Cancer trial – phase 1: Early experience of micro-ultrasound in the United Kingdom (2024)
Journal Article
Parker, P., Twiddy, M., Rigby, A., Whybrow, P., & Simms, M. (2024). Evaluating the Role of Ultrasound in Prostate Cancer trial – phase 1: Early experience of micro-ultrasound in the United Kingdom. Ultrasound, https://doi.org/10.1177/1742271X231226302

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate if the use of micro-ultrasound can detect clinically significant prostate pathology when compared to histology obtained during a transperineal prostate biopsy. Methods: Patients suspected of having p... Read More about Evaluating the Role of Ultrasound in Prostate Cancer trial – phase 1: Early experience of micro-ultrasound in the United Kingdom.
