Patterns and causes of population subdivision in the marine environment (2007)
Thesis
Galarza, J. A. Patterns and causes of population subdivision in the marine environment. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4208745

An accurate assessment of population genetic subdivision is crucial in making informed decisions for the management and conservation of marine resources. However, obtaining a precise assessment is particularly challenging since population subdivision... Read More about Patterns and causes of population subdivision in the marine environment.

The role of intracellular and extracellular cysteines in regulating human proteinase-activated receptor-2 (hPAR2) function (2007)
Thesis
Botham, A. M. The role of intracellular and extracellular cysteines in regulating human proteinase-activated receptor-2 (hPAR2) function. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4208657

hPAR2, a member of the novel family of proteolytically-activated G-protein coupled receptors termed Proteinase-Activated Receptors (PAR), has recently been implicated in cardiovascular disease. Previous pharmacological studies have found that activat...

In the first decade of the twenty-first century Higher Education in Britain faces an uncertain future, in what, as will be discussed, some commentators have referred to as a ‘crisis of mission’. The period of relative homogeneity and state-funded pro... Read More about eLearning and the crisis of mission in British universities.

Rural electrification in Ghana: issues of photovoltaic energy technology utilisation (2007)
Thesis
Bawakyillenuo, S. Rural electrification in Ghana: issues of photovoltaic energy technology utilisation. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4208353

Energy plays a pivotal role in human development. Not only is it sine qua non for national economic development, but it also provides services that enhance social development including, health and sanitation, education, potable water, cooking. In spi... Read More about Rural electrification in Ghana: issues of photovoltaic energy technology utilisation.

Value of the 6-minute walk test in older patients with chronic heart failure (2007)
Journal Article
Ingle, L. (2007). Value of the 6-minute walk test in older patients with chronic heart failure. Cardiology in review, 24(10), 29-32

We assessed the prognostic value of the 6-minute walk test (6-MWT) among 1592 subjects with differing degrees of left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVSD). We found that the 6-MWT was an independent predictor of mortality, particularly among patie... Read More about Value of the 6-minute walk test in older patients with chronic heart failure.

The lifestyles of affluent young people ages 9 to 15 years: a case study (2007)
Journal Article
Sleap, M., Elliott, B., Paisi, M., & Reed, H. (2007). The lifestyles of affluent young people ages 9 to 15 years: a case study. Journal of Physical Activity and Health, 4(4), 460-469. https://doi.org/10.1123/jpah.4.4.460

BACKGROUND:
There are concerns about the future health of young people due to inactive lifestyles. However, evidence about their physical activity levels is not extensive, especially with regard to affluent young people. This study aimed to investig...

Force measurement from viscoelastically recovering Nylon 6,6 fibres (2007)
Journal Article
Pang, J. W. C., Lamin, B. M., & Fancey, K. S. (2008). Force measurement from viscoelastically recovering Nylon 6,6 fibres. Materials letters, 62(10-11), 1693-1696. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.matlet.2007.09.061

The force generated from viscoelastically stored energy in nylon 6,6 fibres was investigated. A 320 MPa, 24 h tensile creep stress was applied to annealed yarn. Following elastic (short-term) recovery, the yarn was allowed to contract from a loose st... Read More about Force measurement from viscoelastically recovering Nylon 6,6 fibres.

Establishment of self-sustaining populations of non-native fish species in the River Trent and Warwickshire Avon, UK, indicated by the presence of 0+ fish (2007)
Journal Article
Nunn, A. D., Bolland, J. D., Harvey, J. P., & Cowx, I. G. (2007). Establishment of self-sustaining populations of non-native fish species in the River Trent and Warwickshire Avon, UK, indicated by the presence of 0+ fish. Aquatic Invasions, 2(3), 190-196. https://doi.org/10.3391/ai.2007.2.3.6

This study investigated the reproduction of non-native fish species, inferred from the presence of 0+ fish, in three English lowland rivers over an 8 year period. Evidence of self-sustaining populations was found for three non-native fish species, na...
