Comparison between Ovalbumin and Ovalbumin Peptide 323-339 Responses in Allergic Mice: Humoral and Cellular Aspects
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2010)Ovalbumin (OVA) is widely used in allergy research. OVA peptide 323-339 has been reported to be responsible for 25–35% of isolated BALB ⁄ c mouse T-cell response to intact OVA. An investigation of whether OVA and OVA 323-339 ... -
A comparison of complementary measures of vitamin B6 status, function, and metabolism in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Background Vitamin B6 insufficiency has been linked to increased risk of cancer and other chronic diseases. The circulating concentration of pyridoxal 5′-phosphate (PLP) is a commonly used measure of vitamin B6 status. ... -
Comparison of Five Near-Infrared Fluorescent Folate Conjugates in an Ovarian Cancer Model
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Purpose Fluorescence imaging (FLI) using targeted near-infrared (NIR) conjugates aids the detection of tumour lesions pre- and intraoperatively. The optimisation of tumour visualisation and contrast is essential and can ... -
Comparison of frequency, risk factors, and time course of postoperative delirium in octogenarians after transcatheter aortic valve implantation versus surgical aortic valve replacement
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-03-15)Postoperative delirium (PD) after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) remains to be explored. We sought to (1) determine the incidence of PD in octogenarians who underwent TAVI or surgical aortic valve replacement ... -
Comparison of inflammatory markers in induced and spontaneous sputum in a cohort of COPD patients
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-11-15)Background: Sputum induction is a non-invasive method for obtaining measurements of inflammation in the airways. Whether spontaneously sampled sputum can be a valid surrogate is unknown. The aim of this study was to compare ... -
