Gait patterns in transtibial amputee fallers vs. non-fallers: biomechanical differences during level walking (2008)
Journal Article
Vanicek, N., Strike, S., McNaughton, L., & Polman, R. (2009). Gait patterns in transtibial amputee fallers vs. non-fallers: biomechanical differences during level walking. Gait and Posture, 29(3), 415-420. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gaitpost.2008.10.062

Transtibial amputees are at an increased risk of falling compared to age-matched, able-bodied individuals. The aim of this study was to compare the gait patterns of recent amputee fallers vs. non-fallers during level walking by investigating joint ki...

Release of VCAM-1 associated endothelial microparticles following simulated SCUBA dives (2008)
Journal Article
Vince, R. V., McNaughton, L. R., Taylor, L., Midgley, A. W., Laden, G., & Madden, L. A. (2009). Release of VCAM-1 associated endothelial microparticles following simulated SCUBA dives. European journal of applied physiology, 105(4), 507-513. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00421-008-0927-z

Microparticles (MP) are shed into the circulation from endothelium following activation or apoptosis. Vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) is expressed on endothelial cells following activation and here we report quantification of VCAM-1 positi...

Microparticle-associated vascular adhesion molecule-1 and tissue factor follow a circadian rhythm in healthy human subjects (2008)
Journal Article
Madden, L. A., Vince, R. V., Sandström, M. E., Taylor, L., McNaughton, L., & Laden, G. (2008). Microparticle-associated vascular adhesion molecule-1 and tissue factor follow a circadian rhythm in healthy human subjects. Thrombosis and haemostasis, 99(5), 909 - 915. https://doi.org/10.1160/th08-01-0030

An increased risk of death or severe injury due to late-morning thrombotic events is well established. Tissue factor (TF) is the initiator of the coagulation cascade, and endothelial stresses, coupled with production of pro-coagulant microparticles (...
