Characterisation of cardiac cellular and vascular function in Ischemic heart disease (2021)
Thesis
Bushdyhan, M. Characterisation of cardiac cellular and vascular function in Ischemic heart disease. (Dissertation). University of Salford

Ischemic heart disease (IHD) is the most common cause of death across the globe, of which global mortality rates are projected to continue rising into the future. Therapies used to treat the most chronic cases of IHD are focused on the revascularis... Read More about Characterisation of cardiac cellular and vascular function in Ischemic heart disease.

Exploring the influence of adipokines on neuronal function in Alzheimer’s disease (2021)
Thesis
Tomar, N. Exploring the influence of adipokines on neuronal function in Alzheimer’s disease. (Thesis). University of Salford

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is one of the major causes of dementia. Alzheimer’s disease is an irreversible, slow neurodegenerative disease leading to memory and language impairment and amyloid-β plaques and intraneuronal neurofibrillary tangles are the...

Saxton, S., Toms, L., Aldous, R., Withers, S., Ohanian, J., & Heagerty, A. (2021). Restoring perivascular adipose tissue function in obesity using exercise. Cardiovascular Drugs and Therapy, 35(6), 1291-1304. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10557-020-07136-0

Perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) exerts an anti-contractile effect which is vital in regulating vascular tone. This effect is mediated via sympathetic nervous stimulation of PVAT by a mechanism which involves noradrenaline uptake through organic ca...

Proinflammatory cytokines as mediators of phenotypic change in bacteria implicated in ventilator-associated pneumonia (2021)
Thesis
Tompsett, A. Proinflammatory cytokines as mediators of phenotypic change in bacteria implicated in ventilator-associated pneumonia. (Thesis). University of Salford

Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is a common hospital-acquired infection in intensive care. VAP is associated with increased hospital stay, healthcare costs, and high mortality. VAP is difficult to diagnose and manage appropriately, leading to w...
