Investigating the effect of prophylactic D-mannose treatment on adhesion of Uropathogenic Escherichia coli to the human bladder epithelium (2022)
Thesis
bladder epithelium. (Dissertation). University of Salford

Urinary tract infection (UTI) is the second most common bacterial infection worldwide, affecting millions of people annually, mainly women, and primarily caused by Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC). Treatment of UTIs is challenged by the continue...

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...

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...

Thesis
Buzzetti, M. Mechanisms of medulloblastoma vulnerability and new targeted therapies. (Thesis). University of Salford

Medulloblastoma (MB) is the most common malignant paediatric brain tumour accounting for about 20% of all childhood brain cancers. Over the last decade, a consensus has been reached over the existence of 4 main molecular subtypes, known as WNT-activa...
