COVID-NURSE : evaluation of a fundamental nursing care protocol compared to care as usual on experience of care for non-invasively ventilated patients in hospital with the SARS-CoV-2 virus : protocol for a cluster randomised controlled trial. BMJ Open, 11(5), e046436. https://doi.org/10.1136/bmjopen-2020-046436

Introduction; Patient experience of nursing care is correlated with safety, clinical effectiveness, care quality, treatment outcomes and service use. Effective nursing care includes actions to develop nurse-patient relationships and deliver physical...

Journal Article
Ackers-Johnson, G., Kibombo, D., Kusiima, B., Nsubuga, M., Kigozi, E., Kajumbula, H., …James, C. (2021). Antibiotic resistance profiles and population structure of disease-associated Staphylococcus aureus infecting patients in Fort Portal Regional Referral Hospital, Western Uganda. Microbiology, 167(5), 001000. https://doi.org/10.1099/mic.0.001000

Tackling antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is particularly challenging in low-resource settings such as Fort Portal Regional Referral Hospital (FPRRH) in Western Uganda. Specific knowledge of local AMR epidemiology is required to inform evidence-based i...

Low-frequency rTMS to the parietal lobe increases eye-movement carryover and decreases hazard rating (2021)
Journal Article
Hills, P., Arabici, G., Canter, L., Thompson, C., & Moseley, R. (2021). Low-frequency rTMS to the parietal lobe increases eye-movement carryover and decreases hazard rating. Neuropsychologia, 158, 107895. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuropsychologia.2021.107895

The persistence of attentional set from one task to a secondary unrelated task, revealed through carryover of eye movements, has been attributed to increased activation in the parietal lobe and decreased activation to the frontal lobe. To directly te... Read More about Low-frequency rTMS to the parietal lobe increases eye-movement carryover and decreases hazard rating.

Change of direction speed and technique modification training improves 180° turning performance, kinetics, and kinematics (2021)
Journal Article

This study aimed to examine the effects of change of direction (COD) speed and technique modification training on 180° turning performance (completion time, ground contact time [GCT], and exit velocity), kinetics, and kinematics. A non-randomised 6 w... Read More about Change of direction speed and technique modification training improves 180° turning performance, kinetics, and kinematics.

Resilience intervention for families of autistic children : reviewing the literature (2021)
Journal Article
Kotera, Y., Pope, M., Chircop, J., Kirkman, A., Bennett-Viliardos, L., & Sharaan, S. (2021). Resilience intervention for families of autistic children : reviewing the literature. Journal of concurrent disorders,

: Given the rising diagnostic rates of autism, it is imperative to investigate the well-being of families with autistic children. Families of autistic children report more mental health difficulties than families of typically developing children....

Language and Cognition, 13(3), 397-437. https://doi.org/10.1017/langcog.2021.8

We used a multi-method approach to investigate how children avoid (or retreat from) argument structure overgeneralisation errors (e.g., *You giggled me). Experiment 1 investigated how semantic and statistical constraints (preemption and entrenchment)...
