Electrical stimulation vs. standard care for chronic ulcer healing: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials (2014)
Journal Article
Barnes, R., Shahin, Y., Gohil, R., & Chetter, I. (2014). Electrical stimulation vs. standard care for chronic ulcer healing: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials. European Journal of Clinical Investigation, 44(4), 429-440. https://doi.org/10.1111/eci.12244

Background We conducted a systematic review to investigate the effect of electrical stimulation on ulcer healing compared to usual treatment and/or sham stimulation. This systematic review also aimed to investigate the effect of different types of...

Journal Article
Courneya, K. S., McKenzie, D. C., Gelmon, K., Mackey, J. R., Reid, R. D., Yasui, Y., Friedenreich, C. M., Forbes, C. C., Trinh, L., Jespersen, D., Cook, D., Proulx, C., Wooding, E., Dolan, L. B., & Segal, R. J. (2014). A multicenter randomized trial of the effects of exercise dose and type on psychosocial distress in breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers and Prevention, 23(5), 857-864. https://doi.org/10.1158/1055-9965.EPI-13-1163

Background: Exercise may improve psychosocial distress in patients with cancer; however, few studies have examined the effects of different types or doses of exercise, or whether exercise effects are related to baseline depression levels. Methods: I... Read More about A multicenter randomized trial of the effects of exercise dose and type on psychosocial distress in breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy.

The ryanodine receptor agonist 4-chloro-3-ethylphenol blocks ORAI store-operated channels: 4-Chloro-3-ethylphenol inhibits ORAI channels (2014)
Journal Article
Zeng, B., Chen, G.-L., Daskoulidou, N., & Xu, S.-Z. (2014). The ryanodine receptor agonist 4-chloro-3-ethylphenol blocks ORAI store-operated channels: 4-Chloro-3-ethylphenol inhibits ORAI channels. British Journal of Pharmacology, 171(5), 1250-1259. https://doi.org/10.1111/bph.12528

Background Depletion of the Ca2+ store by ryanodine receptor (RyR) agonists induces store‐operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE). 4‐Chloro‐3‐ethylphenol (4‐CEP) and 4‐chloro‐m‐cresol (4‐CmC) are RyR agonists commonly used as research tools and diagnostic reagen...

Development of a composite model derived from cardiopulmonary exercise tests to predict mortality risk in patients with mild-to-moderate heart failure (2014)
Journal Article
Ingle, L., Rigby, A. S., Sloan, R., Carroll, S., Goode, K. M., Cleland, J. G., & Clark, A. L. (2014). Development of a composite model derived from cardiopulmonary exercise tests to predict mortality risk in patients with mild-to-moderate heart failure. Heart, 100(10), 781-786. https://doi.org/10.1136/heartjnl-2013-304614

Objective: Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) is used to predict outcome in patients with mild-to-moderate heart failure (HF). Single CPET-derived variables are often used, but we wanted to see if a composite score achieved better predictive pow...

Increased platelet binding to circulating monocytes in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. (2014)
Journal Article
Fahim, A., Crooks, M. G., Morice, A. H., & Hart, S. P. (2014). Increased platelet binding to circulating monocytes in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. Lung, 192(2), 277-284. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00408-013-9546-5

Purpose Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is the most common idiopathic interstitial pneumonia and its prognosis is poor. Epidemiological evidence suggests an association of IPF with vascular disease and thrombotic tendency, which may be related to...
