Optimal power-to-mass ratios when predicting flat and hill-climbing time-trial cycling. (2007)
Journal Article
Nevill, A. M., Jobson, S. A., Davison, R., & Jeukendrup, A. E. (2007). Optimal power-to-mass ratios when predicting flat and hill-climbing time-trial cycling. European Journal of Applied Physiology, 97, 424-431. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00421-006-0189-6

The purpose of this article was to establish whether previously reported oxygen-to-mass ratios, used to predict flat and hill-climbing cycling performance, extend to similar power-to-mass ratios incorporating other, often quick and convenient measure...

Effect of high-fat enteral nutrition on hepatocyte injury in response to hemorrhagic shock in the rat (2007)
Journal Article
Chu, M. M., Luyer, M. D. P., Wheelhouse, N. M., Bellamy, C. O., Greve, J. W. M., Buurman, W. A., Sangster, K., Fearon, K. C. H., Ross, J. A., Garden, O. J., Dejong, C. H. C., & Wigmore, S. J. (2007). Effect of high-fat enteral nutrition on hepatocyte injury in response to hemorrhagic shock in the rat. World Journal of Surgery, 31(8), 1693-1701. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00268-007-9107-2

BACKGROUND: High-fat enteral nutrition reduces the inflammatory response following hemorrhagic shock in the rat. AIMS: We hypothesized that this intervention might also ameliorate the remote organ injury to the liver associated with this model. METHO...

Fitness increases with partner and neighbour allopreening (2007)
Journal Article
Lewis, S., Roberts, G., Harris, M. P., Prigmore, C., & Wanless, S. (2007). Fitness increases with partner and neighbour allopreening. Biology Letters, 3(4), 386-389. https://doi.org/10.1098/rsbl.2007.0258

Altruism and selfishness are fundamental characteristics of human and animal societies. Among colonial biparental species, breeding outcome depends on interactions between mates and neighbours. However, the relationships between cooperation within an... Read More about Fitness increases with partner and neighbour allopreening.

Physiological and Anthropometrical Indicators of Backpack Running Performance in ??Elite?? British Soldiers: 1384 (2007)
Journal Article
Graham, S. M., Simpson, R. J., Clement, R., & Florida-James, G. D. (2007). Physiological and Anthropometrical Indicators of Backpack Running Performance in ??Elite?? British Soldiers: 1384. Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise, 39(Supplement), S199. https://doi.org/10.1249/01.mss.0000273743.89788.1f

PURPOSE: To identify indicators of backpack running performance in “elite” British soldiers using an extensive range of physiological and anthropometrical variables.
METHODS: Thirteen male soldiers (mean ± SD: Age: 26 ± 4 yrs; VO2peak: 55.1 ± 5.4) f... Read More about Physiological and Anthropometrical Indicators of Backpack Running Performance in ??Elite?? British Soldiers: 1384.

High-Intensity Exercise Mobilises Senescent T-lymphocytes into the Peripheral Blood Compartment in Young and Old Subjects: 781 (2007)
Journal Article
Simpson, R. J., Cosgrove, C., Florida-James, G. D., Whyte, G. P., Pircher, H., & Guy, K. (2007). High-Intensity Exercise Mobilises Senescent T-lymphocytes into the Peripheral Blood Compartment in Young and Old Subjects: 781. Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise, 39(Supplement), S61. https://doi.org/10.1249/01.mss.0000273140.61651.0b

T-cell senescence occurs during aging as a consequence of chromosome telomere shortening in response to repetitive antigenic stimulation. Senescent T-lymphocytes normally exhibit a “memory” phenotype (i.e. CD62L-/CD45RA-/CD45RO+) and express CD57 and...

From Gutenberg to Gates: a study of socio-technical change in the Edinburgh printing industry (2007)
Thesis
Parnell, M. P. From Gutenberg to Gates: a study of socio-technical change in the Edinburgh printing industry. (Thesis). Edinburgh Napier University. http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/id/eprint/3804

Printing has a long and illustrious history as a craft industry. This study explores the effects of technological change on skilled workers in the Edinburgh general printing industry. Three, initially distinct, areas of sociological theory concerni... Read More about From Gutenberg to Gates: a study of socio-technical change in the Edinburgh printing industry.

Stable isotope records from otoliths as tracers of fish migration in a mangrove system. (2007)
Journal Article
Huxham, M., Kimani, E., Newton, J., & Augley, J. J. (2007). Stable isotope records from otoliths as tracers of fish migration in a mangrove system. Journal of Fish Biology, 70, 1554-1567. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1095-8649.2007.01443.x

The ratios of stable isotopes 18O:16O and 13C:12C were measured in otolith carbon taken from nine species of fishes caught within mangroves and on the reef at Gazi Bay, Kenya. Before analysis, otoliths were divided into `larval'`post-larval' and `adu... Read More about Stable isotope records from otoliths as tracers of fish migration in a mangrove system..
