Junction jump sign: a useful adjunct to the precise positioning of the catheter tip during endovenous thermal ablation (2011)
Journal Article
Samuel, N., Wallace, T., Smith, G. E., Shahin, Y., & Chetter, I. C. (2011). Junction jump sign: a useful adjunct to the precise positioning of the catheter tip during endovenous thermal ablation. Ultrasound, 19(2), 97-98. https://doi.org/10.1258/ult.2011.011006

Duplex ultrasound imaging plays a key role in the increasingly popular, minimally invasive endothermal treatment of varicose veins. Accurate placement of the echodense tip of endovenous catheter distal to the site of junctional incompetence is by far...

Microsystems for personalized biomolecular diagnostics (2011)
Journal Article
Shaw, K. J., Birch, C., Hughes, E. M., Jakes, A. D., Greenman, J., & Haswell, S. J. (2011). Microsystems for personalized biomolecular diagnostics. Engineering in Life Sciences, 11(2), 121-132. https://doi.org/10.1002/elsc.201000175

The development of microfluidic methodology that can be used in conjunction with drug screening and biomolecular diagnostics offers a route to evidence-based personalized medical care. Ideally, all personal diagnostics are best carried out in a rapid... Read More about Microsystems for personalized biomolecular diagnostics.

A pilot study to investigate the role of the 26S proteasome in radiotherapy resistance and loco-regional recurrence following breast conserving therapy for early breast cancer (2011)
Journal Article
ELFadl, D., Hodgkinson, V. C., Long, E. D., Scaife, L., Drew, P. J., Lind, M. J., & Cawkwell, L. (2011). A pilot study to investigate the role of the 26S proteasome in radiotherapy resistance and loco-regional recurrence following breast conserving therapy for early breast cancer. The Breast : official journal of the European Society of Mastology, 20(4), 334-337. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.breast.2011.02.017

Breast conserving therapy is a currently accepted method for managing patients with early stage breast cancer. However, approximately 7% of patients may develop loco-regional tumour recurrence within 5 years. We previously reported that expression of...

Angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors effect on endothelial dysfunction: a meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials (2011)
Journal Article
Shahin, Y., Khan, J. A., Samuel, N., & Chetter, I. (2011). Angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors effect on endothelial dysfunction: a meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials. Atherosclerosis, 216(1), 7-16. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.atherosclerosis.2011.02.044

ObjectiveSeveral studies have assessed the effect of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs) on endothelial dysfunction as measured by brachial flow-mediated vasodilatation (FMD). We conducted a meta-analysis to investigate this effect in co...

Repeatedly identified differentially expressed proteins (RIDEPs) from antibody microarray proteomic analysis (2011)
Journal Article
Hodgkinson, V. C., ELFadl, D., Drew, P. J., Lind, M. J., & Cawkwell, L. (2011). Repeatedly identified differentially expressed proteins (RIDEPs) from antibody microarray proteomic analysis. Journal of Proteomics, 74(5), 698-703. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jprot.2011.02.014

Antibody microarrays are powerful new tools in the field of comparative proteomics. The success of the biomarker discovery pipeline relies on the quality of data generated in the discovery phase and careful selection of proteins for the verification...

Randomized clinical trial of endovenous laser ablation compared with conventional surgery for great saphenous varicose veins (2011)
Journal Article
Carradice, D., Mekako, A. I., Mazari, F. A. K., Samuel, N., Hatfield, J., & Chetter, I. C. (2011). Randomized clinical trial of endovenous laser ablation compared with conventional surgery for great saphenous varicose veins. British journal of surgery, 98(4), 501-510. https://doi.org/10.1002/bjs.7394

Background: Endovenous laser ablation (EVLA) is a popular minimally invasive treatment for varicose veins. Surgical treatment, featuring junctional ligation and inversion stripping, has shown excellent clinical and cost effectiveness. The clinical ef...

Ultrasound evaluation of carotid body tumours (2011)
Journal Article
Samuel, N., Smith, G., Wolstenhulme, S., & Chetter, I. (2011). Ultrasound evaluation of carotid body tumours. Ultrasound, 19(1), 26-30. https://doi.org/10.1258/ult.2010.010037

Carotid body tumour (CBT) is a rare neoplasm that usually presents as an asymptomatic slow-growing neck mass at the carotid bifurcation. Due to these benign attributes, CBTs often go undiagnosed for a few years before a lateral neck mass becomes clin... Read More about Ultrasound evaluation of carotid body tumours.
