Journal Article
Hammersley, R., Jenkins, R., & Reid, M. (2001). Cannabis use and social identity. Addiction research & theory, 9(2), 133-150. https://doi.org/10.3109/16066350109141745

Cannabis use has become common, but we still understand little about how and why people use cannabis. This paper theorises the relationship between cannabis use and social identity, suggesting that cannabis use is an important aspect of many people's...

The placebo effect of hyperbaric oxygen therapy - fact or fiction? (2001)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Abidia, A., Kuhan, G., Laden, G., Bahia, H., Chetter, I., & McCollum, P. The placebo effect of hyperbaric oxygen therapy - fact or fiction?

BACKGROUND: Patients undergoing hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO) frequently report improvement in their health status; however, it is debatable whether this is a true effect of HBO or a placebo. We aimed to investigate the placebo effect of receiving... Read More about The placebo effect of hyperbaric oxygen therapy - fact or fiction?.

Hyperbaric oxygen restores the antioxidant defence mechansim following exercise in patients with intermittent claudication (2001)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Abidia, A., Kuhan, G., Laden, G., Bahia, H., Chetter, I., Greenman, J., & McCollum, P. Hyperbaric oxygen restores the antioxidant defence mechansim following exercise in patients with intermittent claudication

BACKGROUND: Intermittent claudication represents a minor ischaemia reperfusion episode. Exposure to hyperbaric oxygen during such episodes is a concern to many vascular surgeons because of the theoretical risk of generating excess free radicals. We a...

Development of an artificial intervertebral disc for laboratory test spine (2001)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Fagan, M., Gillespie, P., Julian, S., Siddall, D., & Mohsen, A. Development of an artificial intervertebral disc for laboratory test spine

A patient-specific finite element model of the spine is currently beingdeveloped to aid the surgeon in the diagnosis and clinical managementof spinal conditions1. To validate the application of the computermodel, a laboratory validation spine is bein... Read More about Development of an artificial intervertebral disc for laboratory test spine.

Risk modelling study for carotid endarterectomy (2001)
Journal Article
Kuhan, G., Gardiner, E. D., Abidia, A. F., Chetter, I. C., Renwick, P. M., Johnson, B. F., Wilkinson, A. R., & McCollum, P. T. (2001). Risk modelling study for carotid endarterectomy. British journal of surgery, 88(12), 1590-1594. https://doi.org/10.1046/j.0007-1323.2001.01938.x

Background: The aims of this study were to identify factors that influence the risk of stroke or death following carotid endarterectomy (CEA) and to develop a model to aid in comparative audit of vascular surgeons and units. Methods: A series of 839... Read More about Risk modelling study for carotid endarterectomy.

Leadership behaviours: effects on job satisfaction, productivity and organizational commitment (2001)
Journal Article
Loke, J. (2001). Leadership behaviours: effects on job satisfaction, productivity and organizational commitment. Journal of nursing management, 9(4), 191-204. https://doi.org/10.1046/j.1365-2834.2001.00231.x

Background Research in the west has shown that job satisfaction, productivity and organizational commitment are affected by leadership behaviours. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of leadership behaviours on employee outcomes in S...

Differential and cell-specific expression of calcitonin receptor-like receptor and receptor activity modifying proteins in the humans uterus (2001)
Journal Article
Nikitenko, L. L., Brown, N. S., Smith, D. M., MacKenzie, I. Z., Bicknell, R., & Rees, M. C. (2001). Differential and cell-specific expression of calcitonin receptor-like receptor and receptor activity modifying proteins in the humans uterus. Molecular Human Reproduction, 7(7), 655-664. https://doi.org/10.1093/molehr/7.7.655

The calcitonin receptor-like receptor (CRLR) can function as a receptor for either calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) or adrenomedullin (AM), depending upon co-expression with members of a novel family of receptor activity-modifying proteins (RAM...
