Journal Article
Gale, C., Dorling, J., Arch, B., Woolfall, K., Deja, E., Roper, L., …Tume, L. (2021). Optimal outcome measures for a trial of not routinely measuring gastric residual volume in neonatal care : a mixed methods consensus process. Archives of Disease in Childhood. Fetal and Neonatal Edition, 106(3), 292-297. https://doi.org/10.1136/archdischild-2020-319469

Background: Routine measurement of gastric residual volume to guide feeding is widespread in neonatal units but not supported by high-quality evidence. Outcome selection is critical to trial design. Objective: To determine optimal outcome measures fo...

The association between running kinematics and common overuse injuries in runners : implications for injury and rehabilitation (2020)
Thesis
Bramah, C. The association between running kinematics and common overuse injuries in runners : implications for injury and rehabilitation. (Thesis). University of Salford

Background: Running related injuries are influenced by a complex interaction between multiple factors. Running kinematic patterns represent one such factor which will influence the load applied to musculoskeletal structures during each foot contact o...

Change of direction manoeuvres is important in soccer and associated with non-contact anterior cruciate ligament injury, yet it is not known how the mechanics differentiate between males and females during 180° turns. Twenty-eight soccer players (14... Read More about Male and female soccer players exhibit different knee joint mechanics during pre-planned change of direction.

Physical activity and cardiac self-efficacy levels during early recovery after acute myocardial infarction : a Jordanian study (2020)
Journal Article

Prolonged sitting and physical inactivity are associated with limited hip extension : a cross-sectional study (2020)
Journal Article

Background: It is possible that physical inactivity and prolonged sitting could lead to changes in muscle properties or bony limitations which may reduce passive hip extension. Objectives: This study explored the association between passive hip ext...

Triggering and measuring neural response indicative of inhibition in humans during conversations with virtual humans (2020)
Thesis
Ahamba, G. Triggering and measuring neural response indicative of inhibition in humans during conversations with virtual humans. (Thesis). University of Salford

The aim of this PhD was to determine if a confrontational virtual human can evoke a response in the prefrontal cortex, indicative of inhibiting an antisocial response. It follows previous studies by Aleksandra Landowska (2018) and Schilbach (2016) de...

Introduction: Many critically ill children can be fed orally at some point during their paediatric intensive care (PICU) stay, but reduced appetite and other factors may impact on their intake. At home, oral feeding is usually delivered by parents; s... Read More about Improving mealtimes for paediatric intensive care children and families : a quality improvement initiative.

Impact of different syringe pumps on red cells during paediatric simulated transfusion (2020)
Journal Article
