A comparison of dynamic strength index between team-sport athletes (2017)
Journal Article
Thomas, C., Dos'Santos, T., & Jones, P. (2017). A comparison of dynamic strength index between team-sport athletes. Sports, 5(3), https://doi.org/10.3390/sports5030071

The purpose of this study was to examine the differences in countermovement jump peak force (CMJ-PF), isometric mid-thigh pull peak force (IMTP-PF), and resultant dynamic strength index (DSI) values between team-sport athletes. One hundred and fiftee... Read More about A comparison of dynamic strength index between team-sport athletes.

Routine gastric residual volume measurement and energy target achievement in the PICU : a comparison study (2017)
Journal Article
Tume, L., Bickerdike, A., Latten, L., Davies, S., Lefèvre, M., Nicolas, G., & Valla, F. (2017). Routine gastric residual volume measurement and energy target achievement in the PICU : a comparison study. European Journal of Pediatrics, 176(12), 1637-1644. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00431-017-3015-8

Critically ill children frequently fail to achieve adequate energy intake, and some care practices, such as the measurement of gastric residual volume (GRV), may contribute to this problem. We compared outcomes in two similar European Paediatric Inte... Read More about Routine gastric residual volume measurement and energy target achievement in the PICU : a comparison study.

The effect of liner design and materials selection on prosthesis interface heat dissipation (2017)
Journal Article
Williams, R., Washington, E., Miodownik, M., & Holloway, C. (2017). The effect of liner design and materials selection on prosthesis interface heat dissipation. Prosthetics and Orthotics International, 42(3), 275-279. https://doi.org/10.1177/0309364617729923

Background and aim: Thermal discomfort often affects prosthesis wearers and could be addressed by increasing liner thermal conductivity. This note explores a liner made from thermally conductive silicone and two additional alternative liner designs...
