Campbell, H., Holloway, S., Cetnarskyj, R., Anderson, E., Rush, R., Fry, A., Gorman, D., Steel, M., & Porteous, M. (2003). Referrals of women with a family history of breast cancer from primary care to cancer genetics services in South East Scotland. British Journal of Cancer, 89(9), 1650-1656. https://doi.org/10.1038/sj.bjc.6601348

As part of a cluster randomised trial to assess an alternative model of cancer genetics services, we gathered data on all referrals from general practitioners (GPs) to cancer genetics services in South East Scotland over a 4-year period. The referral... Read More about Referrals of women with a family history of breast cancer from primary care to cancer genetics services in South East Scotland.

Effects of prenatal undernutrition on emotional reactivity and cognitive flexibility in adult sheep (2003)
Journal Article
Erhard, H. W., Boissy, A., Rae, M. T., & Rhind, S. M. (2004). Effects of prenatal undernutrition on emotional reactivity and cognitive flexibility in adult sheep. Behavioural Brain Research, 151(1-2), 25-35. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bbr.2003.08.003

The experiment reported was designed to test two hypotheses: that prenatal undernutrition (a) increases emotional reactivity and (b) impairs cognitive flexibility in sheep. The mothers of one group were fed live weight maintenance requirements throug... Read More about Effects of prenatal undernutrition on emotional reactivity and cognitive flexibility in adult sheep.

The influence of particle composition and size on in vitro and in vivo biological models. (2003)
Report
Lightbody, J., Hutchison, G. R., Donaldson, K., & Stone, V. (2003). The influence of particle composition and size on in vitro and in vivo biological models

Particulate air pollution has been consistently linked with an increase in morbidity and mortality due to respiratory complications and cardiovascular disease. The aim of this study was to investigate which components of PM10 are important in driving... Read More about The influence of particle composition and size on in vitro and in vivo biological models..
