Molecular imaging of gene transduction in cardiac transplantation (2012)
Thesis
Rao, V. P. (2012). Molecular imaging of gene transduction in cardiac transplantation. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4214665

This thesis is based on a series of experiments aimed at designing a model of gene transfer to the transplanted heart. The use of viral vector-based gene therapy to target pathological processes following cardiac transplantation faces many challenges...

Plasma tissue factor, tissue factor pathway inhibitor and restenosis following femoropopliteal percutaneous transluminal angioplasty in claudicants (2011)
Thesis
Ray, B. (2011). Plasma tissue factor, tissue factor pathway inhibitor and restenosis following femoropopliteal percutaneous transluminal angioplasty in claudicants. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4211926

Introduction: The primary goal in the management of intermittent claudication is to decrease cardiovascular morbidity and mortality by disease modifying therapy. However percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) is often performed to improve limb r...

The effect of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme a reductase inhibitors on oxidative and hypoxic stress in the vascular endothelium (2008)
Thesis
Mylankal, K. J. (2008). The effect of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme a reductase inhibitors on oxidative and hypoxic stress in the vascular endothelium. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4212332

3-Hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase inhibitors (statins) improve endothelial cell (EC) function by enhancing the synthesis of Nitric Oxide (NO) and attenuating the endothelial leucocyte interaction and platelet aggregation. However the ef... Read More about The effect of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme a reductase inhibitors on oxidative and hypoxic stress in the vascular endothelium.

Pre-treatment of patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass with hyperbaric oxygen : a prospective randomised double-blind evaluation of inflammatory response and neurocognitive outcome (2004)
Thesis
Alex, J. (2004). Pre-treatment of patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass with hyperbaric oxygen : a prospective randomised double-blind evaluation of inflammatory response and neurocognitive outcome. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4215128

Over the past few decades, implementation of findings from scientific research and incorporation of technological advances into practice have produced a significant reduction in the morbidity and mortality from coronary revascularisation. Despite the...
