Cancer patients’ experiences of the diagnosis and treatment of incidental pulmonary embolism (a qualitative study) (2022)
Journal Article
Benelhaj, N. E., Hutchinson, A., Maraveyas, A., & Johnson, M. (2022). Cancer patients’ experiences of the diagnosis and treatment of incidental pulmonary embolism (a qualitative study). PLoS ONE, 17(10), Article e0276754. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0276754

Background: The diagnosis of symptomatic cancer-associated thrombosis often causes distress and alarm for patients, especially for those unaware of the risk, or the signs and symptoms to look out for. There are few data about cancer patients’ experie... Read More about Cancer patients’ experiences of the diagnosis and treatment of incidental pulmonary embolism (a qualitative study).

Alteration in endothelial permeability occurs in response to the activation of PAR2 by factor Xa but not directly by the TF-factor VIIa complex (2019)
Journal Article
Benelhaj, N. E., Maraveyas, A., Featherby, S., Collier, M. E., Johnson, M. J., & Ettelaie, C. (2019). Alteration in endothelial permeability occurs in response to the activation of PAR2 by factor Xa but not directly by the TF-factor VIIa complex. Thrombosis Research, 175, 13-20. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.thromres.2019.01.009

Alterations in the endothelial permeability occur in response to the activation of coagulation mechanisms in order to control clot formation. The activation of the protease activated receptors (PAR) can induce signals that regulate such cellular resp...

Cancer patients’ experiences of living with venous thromboembolism: A systematic review and qualitative thematic synthesis (2018)
Journal Article
Benelhaj, N. B., Hutchinson, A., Maraveyas, A. M., Seymour, J. D., Ilyas, M. W., & Johnson, M. J. (2018). Cancer patients’ experiences of living with venous thromboembolism: A systematic review and qualitative thematic synthesis. Palliative medicine, 32(5), 1010-1020. https://doi.org/10.1177/0269216318757133

Background: Cancer-Associated thrombosis is common. Recommended treatment is daily injected low-molecular-weight heparin for 6months. Most studies focus on prophylaxis and treatment; few have explored patients’ experience.

Aims
To identify and sy... Read More about Cancer patients’ experiences of living with venous thromboembolism: A systematic review and qualitative thematic synthesis.

Analysis of the potential of cancer cell lines to release tissue factor-containing microvesicles: correlation with tissue factor and PAR2 expression (2016)
Journal Article
Ettelaie, C., Collier, M. E. W., Featherby, S., Benelhaj, N. E., Greenman, J., & Maraveyas, A. (2016). Analysis of the potential of cancer cell lines to release tissue factor-containing microvesicles: correlation with tissue factor and PAR2 expression. Thrombosis journal, 14(2), Article ARTN 2. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12959-016-0075-3

Background
Despite the association of cancer-derived circulating tissue factor (TF)-containing microvesicles and hypercoagulable state, correlations with the incidence of thrombosis remain unclear.

Methods
In this study the upregulation of TF re... Read More about Analysis of the potential of cancer cell lines to release tissue factor-containing microvesicles: correlation with tissue factor and PAR2 expression.
