Estimation of errors in force platform data. (2006)
Journal Article
Psycharakis, S., & Miller, S. (2006). Estimation of errors in force platform data. Research Quarterly for Exercise and Sport, 77, 514-518

Force platforms (FPs) are regularly used in the biomechanical analysis of sport and exercise techniques, often in combination with image-based motion analysis (e.g., Begg & Kamruzzaman, 2005; Kuitunen, Komi, & Kyrolainen, 2002; Rahmani, Dalleau, Vial...

The effects of marathon running on expression of the complement regulatory proteins CD55 (DAF) and CD59 (MACIF) on red blood cells (2006)
Journal Article
Simpson, R. J., Florida-James, G. D., Whyte, G. P., Middleton, N., Shave, R., George, K., & Guy, K. (2007). The effects of marathon running on expression of the complement regulatory proteins CD55 (DAF) and CD59 (MACIF) on red blood cells. European Journal of Applied Physiology, 99(2), 201-204. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00421-006-0326-2

Exercise is known to result in the haemolysis of red blood cells (RBCs). Although mechanical stressors such as footstrike and an increased velocity of blood flow may be involved, the biological mechanisms that underpin RBC haemolysis remain elusive....

Physiological variables and performance markers of serving soldiers from two “elite” units of the British Army (2006)
Journal Article
Simpson, R. J., Gray, S. C., & Florida-James, G. D. (2006). Physiological variables and performance markers of serving soldiers from two “elite” units of the British Army. Journal of Sports Sciences, 24(6), 597-604. https://doi.org/10.1080/02640410500230811

The aim of this study was to compare selected physiological variables and performance markers of soldiers from two “elite” units of the British Army. Ten soldiers from each of the two units were recruited for this study (n = 20). All participants com...

The efficacy of certain anti-tuberculosis drugs is affected by binding to alpha-1-acid glycoprotein. (2006)
Journal Article
Johnson, D. A., & Smith, K. (2006). The efficacy of certain anti-tuberculosis drugs is affected by binding to alpha-1-acid glycoprotein. Biomedical Chromatography, 20, 551-560. https://doi.org/10.1002/bmc.641

One of the most ubiquitous plasma proteins, -1-acid glycoprotein (AGP), has a high affinity, low capacity binding for basic drugs positively charged at physiological pH. Moreover, as an acute phase protein its level is increased in various disease st...

Optimal power-to-mass ratios when predicting flat and hill-climbing time-trial cycling (2006)
Journal Article
Nevill, A. M., Jobson, S. A., Davison, R. C. R., & Jeukendrup, A. E. (2006). Optimal power-to-mass ratios when predicting flat and hill-climbing time-trial cycling. European Journal of Applied Physiology, 97(4), 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...

The effects of intensive, moderate and downhill treadmill running on human blood lymphocytes expressing the adhesion/activation molecules CD54 (ICAM-1), CD18 (β2 integrin) and CD53 (2006)
Journal Article
Simpson, R. J., Florida-James, G., Whyte, G. P., & Guy, K. (2006). The effects of intensive, moderate and downhill treadmill running on human blood lymphocytes expressing the adhesion/activation molecules CD54 (ICAM-1), CD18 (β2 integrin) and CD53. European Journal of Applied Physiology, 97(1), 109-121. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00421-006-0146-4

This study examined the effects of intensive, moderate and downhill treadmill running on blood lymphocyte expression of adhesion/activation (AA) molecules. Trained subjects completed three treadmill-running protocols of identical duration: (1) an int...
