Mean blood glucose compared with HbA1c in the prediction of cardiovascular disease in patients with type 1 diabetes (2007)
Journal Article
Kilpatrick, E. S., Rigby, A. S., & Atkin, S. L. (2008). Mean blood glucose compared with HbA1c in the prediction of cardiovascular disease in patients with type 1 diabetes. Diabetologia, 51(2), 365-371. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00125-007-0883-x

Aims/hypothesisIt is not known whether mean blood glucose (MBG) predicts the risk of macrovascular complications in diabetes any differently from HbA1c. In this study we therefore analysed data from the Diabetes Control and Complications Trial (DCCT)...

The aim of this study was to investigate the utility of the water T-2 values of malignant breast lesions in predicting response after the first and second cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC), both alone and in combination with lesion volumes. Th... Read More about Lesion T2 relaxation times and volumes predict the response of malignant breast lesions to neoadjuvant chemotherapy.

Cutaneous hyperpigmentation after endovenous laser therapy: a case report and literature review (2007)
Journal Article

Background:In vitro studies suggest an association between raised levels of tissue factor and restenosis after coronary percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA). This prospective, controlled study examined the association between plasma tissue fac... Read More about Plasma tissue factor is a predictor for restenosis after femoropopliteal angioplasty.

Changes in body composition in patients with left ventricular systolic dysfunction initiated on beta-blocker therapy (2007)
Journal Article
Ingle, L., Rigby, A. S., Carroll, S., Butterly, R., King, R. F., Cooke, C. B., …Clark, A. L. (2007). Changes in body composition in patients with left ventricular systolic dysfunction initiated on beta-blocker therapy. Experimental and Clinical Cardiology, 12(1), 46-47

Background: Increasing body mass index, cholesterol and body fat are associated with a better prognosis in patients with left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVSD). Beta-blocker usage is associated with changes in body composition and increased bod...
