Atrial Fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia worldwide with sufferers of the condition facing significant morbidity and mortality. Ageing alone is identified as the most significant risk factor for developing the arrhythmia. As such...

Through-knee amputation (TKA) has several theoretical physical advantages over above-knee amputation (AKA), yet AKA remains the preferred level of amputation by UK vascular surgeons when below-knee amputation (BKA) is not feasible. How clinician’s pe... Read More about A mixed methods study of outcomes, experiences, and perceptions of through-knee and above-knee amputation.

Determination of epithelial growth factor receptor mutations in circulatory tumour cells from non-small cell lung cancer patients isolated using a novel microfluidic device (2022)

Patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) sensitizing mutations in non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) receive benefit from Tyrosine Kinase inhibitors. Accurate selection of patients before treatment is highly dependent on precise molecula...

The detection and assessment of malnutrition, sarcopenia and cachexia, in older adults with cancer (2022)
Thesis
Bullock, A. F. (2022). The detection and assessment of malnutrition, sarcopenia and cachexia, in older adults with cancer. (Thesis). Hull York Medical School. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4484119

Background: Older adults with cancer are a complex and growing population requiring tailored care to achieve optimum treatment outcomes. However, their care is complicated by underrecognised and under-treated nutrition-related wasting disorders: mal...
