The variability in accuracy of the Rolimeter in assessing anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) laxity as tested by users of different experience (2006)
Journal Article
Arbuthnot, J., Stables, G., Hatcher, J., & McNicholas, M. (2006). The variability in accuracy of the Rolimeter in assessing anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) laxity as tested by users of different experience. Journal of bone and joint surgery. British volume. Orthopaedic proceedings, 88-B(SupIII), 386

Introduction: Instrumented arthrometry is a widely used technique for the quantification of cruciate ligament laxity. It is used both before and after surgery. The Rolimeter(Aircast, Europe) is used in such scenarios. It has several advantages over i...

The prevalence and incidence of biopsy-proven lupus nephritis in the UK: Evidence of an ethnic gradient (2006)
Journal Article
Patel, M., Clarke-Cornwell, A. M., Bruce, I. N., & Symmons, D. P. M. (2006). The prevalence and incidence of biopsy-proven lupus nephritis in the UK: Evidence of an ethnic gradient. Arthritis and Rheumatism, 54(9), https://doi.org/10.1002/art.22079

Objective: Renal involvement is a major complication of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and is a strong determinant of morbidity and mortality. There have been no previous studies of the epidemiology of lupus nephritis. Our aim was to establish th...

The burden of rheumatic disease (2006)
Journal Article
Clarke-Cornwell, A. M., & Symmons, D. P. (2006). The burden of rheumatic disease. Medicine, 34(9), 333-335. https://doi.org/10.1053/j.mpmed.2006.06.007

Musculoskeletal conditions are a major burden to the individual, society and the health service. Most new musculoskeletal GP consultations are for self-limiting conditions such as soft tissue rheumatism, chronic widespread pain and arthralgia. Incide...

Transmission photoacoustic spectroscopy of flash-evaporated CuIn0.75Ga0.25Se2 thin films (2006)
Journal Article
Ahmed, E., Pilkington, R., Hill, A., Ali, C., Ahmed, W., & Hassan, I. (2006). Transmission photoacoustic spectroscopy of flash-evaporated CuIn0.75Ga0.25Se2 thin films. Thin Solid Films, 515(1), 239-244. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tsf.2005.12.076

Photoacoustic spectroscopy (PAS) has proved to be an effective technique for the evaluation of inherent defect population in a wide range of materials for various applications. This paper demonstrates the use of this technique in transmission mode an... Read More about Transmission photoacoustic spectroscopy of flash-evaporated CuIn0.75Ga0.25Se2 thin films.

Generalized theory and application of Stokes parameter measurements made with a single photoelastic modulator (2006)
Journal Article
Liu, Y., Jones, G., Peng, Y., & Shen, T. (2006). Generalized theory and application of Stokes parameter measurements made with a single photoelastic modulator. Journal of Applied Physics, 100(6), 063537. https://doi.org/10.1063/1.2353894

We report in this paper a generalized theory that describes the interaction between a monochromatic light beam and an optical system that includes one photoelastic modulator, one analyzer, and one photodetector. Based on the theory, a detailed four-s... Read More about Generalized theory and application of Stokes parameter measurements made with a single photoelastic modulator.

Carotenoid radical anions and their protonated derivatives (2006)
Journal Article
El-Agamey, A., Edge, R., Navaratnam, S., Land, E., & Truscott, T. (2006). Carotenoid radical anions and their protonated derivatives. Organic Letters, 8(19), 4255-4258. https://doi.org/10.1021/ol061484s

In this study, we report the protonation reactions for astaxanthin and canthaxanthin radical anions in methanol, alkaline methanol, and aqueous 2% Triton X-100 at different pH values. The pKa values for the corresponding alpha-hydroxy radical derivat... Read More about Carotenoid radical anions and their protonated derivatives.

Spatial Kerr soliton collisions at arbitrary angles (2006)
Journal Article
Chamorro-Posada, P., & McDonald, G. (2006). Spatial Kerr soliton collisions at arbitrary angles. Physical Review E, 74(3), 036609. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevE.74.036609

The theory of spatial Kerr solitons is extended to colliding beams that are neither almost-exactly copropagating nor almost-exactly counterpropagating. Our new Helmholtz formalism yields results that are consistent with the inherent symmetry of the c... Read More about Spatial Kerr soliton collisions at arbitrary angles.
