Validation of the ERS standard citric acid cough challenge in healthy adult volunteers (2010)
Journal Article
Wright, C. E., Jackson, J., Thompson, R. L., & Morice, A. H. (2010). Validation of the ERS standard citric acid cough challenge in healthy adult volunteers. Cough, 6(1), Article 8. https://doi.org/10.1186/1745-9974-6-8

Protocols measuring cough sensitivity can vary in terms of nebuliser, tussive agent, single and dose response. A definitive method for measuring cough sensitivity needs to be established. The ERS guidelines recommend the KoKo DigiDoser (KD) delivery... Read More about Validation of the ERS standard citric acid cough challenge in healthy adult volunteers.

Chronic cough associated with Crohn's disease (2010)
Journal Article
Faruqi, S., Avery, G., & Morice, A. H. (2010). Chronic cough associated with Crohn's disease. Cough, 6(1), https://doi.org/10.1186/1745-9974-6-6

A 62-year-old man presented with chronic dry cough. He was known to have Crohn's disease which was in remission. A plain chest radiograph demonstrated bilateral apical infiltrates. A HRCT of the chest showed normal proximal airways. Stenosis of mediu... Read More about Chronic cough associated with Crohn's disease.

Kinematic adaptations to ischemic pain in claudicants during continuous walking (2010)
Journal Article
Mockford, K. A., Vanicek, N., Jordan, A., Chetter, I. C., & Coughlin, P. A. (2010). Kinematic adaptations to ischemic pain in claudicants during continuous walking. Gait and Posture, 32(3), 395-399. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gaitpost.2010.06.021

Intermittent claudication has been associated with impaired gait and balance. The study aim was to compare gait adaptations over time between claudicants classified with good versus poor balance. Kinematic data were collected from 24 claudicants duri... Read More about Kinematic adaptations to ischemic pain in claudicants during continuous walking.

Energy delivery during 810 nm endovenous laser ablation of varicose veins and post-procedural morbidity (2010)
Journal Article
Carradice, D., Mazari, F. A., Mekako, A., Hatfield, J., Allgar, V., & Chetter, I. (2010). Energy delivery during 810 nm endovenous laser ablation of varicose veins and post-procedural morbidity. European journal of vascular and endovascular surgery : the official journal of the European Society for Vascular Surgery, 40(3), 393-398. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ejvs.2010.04.010

Aim: The durability of occlusion post endovenous laser therapy (EVLT) for varicose veins is linked to the magnitude of energy delivered to the vein and consequently increasing amounts of energy are employed. The aim of this study is to establish whet... Read More about Energy delivery during 810 nm endovenous laser ablation of varicose veins and post-procedural morbidity.

Cisplatin plus gemcitabine versus gemcitabine for biliary tract cancer (2010)
Journal Article
Valle, J., Wasan, H., Palmer, D. H., Cunningham, D., Anthoney, A., Maraveyas, A., …Bridgewater, J. (2010). Cisplatin plus gemcitabine versus gemcitabine for biliary tract cancer. New England Journal of Medicine, 362(14), 1273-1281. https://doi.org/10.1056/NEJMoa0908721

BACKGROUND:There is no established standard chemotherapy for patients with locally advanced or metastatic biliary tract cancer. We initially conducted a randomized, phase 2 study involving 86 patients to compare cisplatin plus gemcitabine with gemcit...

Biomarkers of chemotherapy resistance in breast cancer identified by proteomics: current status (2010)
Journal Article
Hodgkinson, V. C., Eagle, G. L., Drew, P. J., Lind, M. J., & Cawkwell, L. (2010). Biomarkers of chemotherapy resistance in breast cancer identified by proteomics: current status. Cancer Letters, 294(1), 13-24. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.canlet.2010.01.036

This review describes and discusses the advantages and limitations of proteomic approaches in the identification of biomarkers associated with chemotherapy resistance. Both gel-based (two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis) and gel-free (... Read More about Biomarkers of chemotherapy resistance in breast cancer identified by proteomics: current status.
