Investigation and characterization of MP derived from media conditioned by various cancer cell lines and their effect on human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) under static and flow conditions (2020)
Thesis
Algarni, A. E. S. (2020). Investigation and characterization of MP derived from media conditioned by various cancer cell lines and their effect on human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) under static and flow conditions. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4222898

Microparticles (MP) are procoagulant due to tissue factor and phospholipid exposure on the surface. MP are tumour-derived and can be a beneficial biomarker of cancer to recognize individuals who are susceptible to venous thrombosis. The aim of the pr...

Bioimprinting technologies for removal of myeloblasts from peripheral blood (2018)
Thesis
Medlock, J. (2018). Bioimprinting technologies for removal of myeloblasts from peripheral blood. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4223476

Acute Myeloid Leukaemia (AML) is a malignancy occurring in the bone marrow and blood whereby immature and defective blast cells are overproduced. As a genetic condition, no cure is available. The condition is traditionally managed by treatment relian... Read More about Bioimprinting technologies for removal of myeloblasts from peripheral blood.

Novel interventional therapies to improve cardiovascular risk in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (2018)

Since being introduced in the late 1990’s, enhancing recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols have been promoted for inclusion in the care pathway for colorectal cancer patients scheduled for resection surgery (Gustaffson et al., 2012). This multimoda...

Cancer and its treatment are frequently complicated by the development of venous thromboembolism (VTE). Interestingly, VTE incidence rates vary according to tumour type and the chemotherapy regimen administered. Yet, the precise mechanisms responsibl...

Endothelial function response to different modes of acute and chronic exercise in both health and diseased populations (2014)
Thesis
Kirk, R. J. T. (2014). Endothelial function response to different modes of acute and chronic exercise in both health and diseased populations. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4220509

Endothelial microparticles (EMP) offer an insight into the state of the endothelium and are known to be elevated in diseases characterised by endothelial dysfunction (ED) (Horstman et al., 2004; Vince et al., 2009a). EMP have also been shown to incre... Read More about Endothelial function response to different modes of acute and chronic exercise in both health and diseased populations.

Effect of resection of localised pancreatic cancer on tissue-factor promoted pathways of thrombosis, cell invasion and angiogenesis (2011)

Pancreatic (PC) is the eleventh most common malignancy in the UK but it has the poorest prognosis of all human adenocarcinoma. The autopsy, epidemiological and clinical studies have consistently identified PC as one of the most highly angiogenic and...
