Role of electromagnetic navigational bronchoscopy in pulmonary nodule management
(AME Publishing Company, 2016-07-01)The incidence of pulmonary nodules and lung cancer is rising. Some of this increase in incidence is due to improved pick up by newer imaging modalities. However, the goal is to diagnose these lesion, many of which are ... -
Role of glutamate metabolism in bacterial responses towards acid and other stresses
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2012-09-27)Glutamate plays a central role in a wide range of metabolic processes in bacterial cells. This review focuses on the involvement of glutamate in bacterial stress responses. In particular, it reviews the role of glutamate ... -
Role of interventional pulmonology in the management of complicated parapneumonic pleural effusions and empyema
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2014-07-17)Pleural infection is a major problem that affects 80000 cases per year in the UK and USA. It is increasing in incidence, and in an ageing population, it presents a complex challenge that requires a combination of medical ... -
Role of lentivirus-mediated overexpression of programmed death-ligand 1 on corneal allograft survival
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2012-02-02)To investigate the role of lentivirus-mediated overexpression of programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) on rat corneal allograft survival. A fully allogeneic rat cornea transplant model was used for in vivo studies. Lentiviral ... -
Role of micro-rnas in breast cancer surgery
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2018-01-01)Background: The management of breast cancer has changed dramatically in the molecular era. Micro-RNAs can contribute to multiple facets of cancer surgery. Methods: This narrative review, based on years of research on the ... -
Role of micrornas in obesity and the metabolic syndrome
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2010-05-01)P>Obesity and the metabolic syndrome are major public health concerns, and present a formidable therapeutic challenge. Many patients remain recalcitrant to conventional lifestyle changes and medical therapies. ... -
Role of nickel in high rate methanol degradation in anaerobic granular sludge bioreactors
(Springer Nature, 2008-02-05)The effect of nickel deprivation from the influent of a mesophilic (30 degrees C) methanol fed upflow anaerobic sludge bed (UASB) reactor was investigated by coupling the reactor performance to the evolution of the ... -
Role of subtyping in detecting salmonella cross contamination in the laboratory
(Springer Nature, 2009-01-01)Background: With the exception of M. tuberculosis, little has been published on the problems of cross-contamination in bacteriology laboratories. We performed a retrospective analysis of subtyping data from the National ... -
Role of vascular channels as a novel mechanism for subchondral bone damage at cruciate ligament entheses in osteoarthritis and inflammatory arthritis
(BMJ, 2013-10-04)Objectives The purpose of this work was to test whether normal peri-entheseal vascular anatomy at anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments (ACL and PCL) was associated with distribution of peri-entheseal bone erosion/bone ... -
Roles of vertebrate smc5 in sister chromatid cohesion and homologous recombinational repair
(American Society for Microbiology, 2011-01-18)The structural maintenance of chromosomes (Smc) family members Smc5 and Smc6 are both essential in budding and fission yeasts. Yeast smc5/6 mutants are hypersensitive to DNA damage, and Smc5/6 is recruited to HO-induced ... -
Rotating antenna microwave imaging system for breast cancer detection
(EMW Publishing, 2010-01-01)Breast imaging using Confocal Microwave Imaging (CMI) has becoming a difficult problem, primarily due to the recently-established dielectric heterogeneity of normal breast tissue. CMI for breast cancer detection was ... -

Rtel1 inhibits trinucleotide repeat expansions and fragility
(Elsevier BV, 2014-03-01)Human RTEL1 is an essential, multifunctional helicase that maintains telomeres, regulates homologous recombination, and helps prevent bone marrow failure. Here, we show that RTEL1 also blocks trinucleotide repeat expansions, ... -
S100β as a serum marker in endocrine resistant breast cancer
(Springer Nature, 2017-04-12)Background: Endocrine therapy is standard treatment for estrogen receptor (ER)-positive breast cancer. However, its efficacy is limited by intrinsic and acquired resistance. Here the potential of S100 beta as a biomarker ... -
S3ql: a distributed domain specific language for controlled semantic integration of life sciences data
(Springer Nature, 2011-01-01)Background: The value and usefulness of data increases when it is explicitly interlinked with related data. This is the core principle of Linked Data. For life sciences researchers, harnessing the power of Linked Data to ... -
