Curr Oncol. 2016 Aug;23(4):273-9. doi: 10.3747/co.23.3124. Epub 2016 Aug 12.

BACKGROUND: Before undergoing curative-intent resection of gastric adenocarcinoma (ga), most patients undergo abdominal computed tomography (ct) imaging to determine contraindications to resection (local invasion, distant metastases). However, the ability to detect contraindications is variable, and the literature is limited...

PageRank as a method to rank biomedical literature by importance.

Source code for biology and medicine

Yates EJ, Dixon LC.
PMID: 26664434
Source Code Biol Med. 2015 Dec 09;10:16. doi: 10.1186/s13029-015-0046-2. eCollection 2015.

BACKGROUND: Optimal ranking of literature importance is vital in overcoming article overload. Existing ranking methods are typically based on raw citation counts, giving a sum of 'inbound' links with no consideration of citation importance. PageRank, an algorithm originally developed...

Digital games for type 1 and type 2 diabetes: underpinning theory with three illustrative examples.

JMIR serious games

Kamel Boulos MN, Gammon S, Dixon MC, MacRury SM, Fergusson MJ, Miranda Rodrigues F, Mourinho Baptista T, Yang SP.
PMID: 25791276
JMIR Serious Games. 2015 Mar 18;3(1):e3. doi: 10.2196/games.3930.

Digital games are an important class of eHealth interventions in diabetes, made possible by the Internet and a good range of affordable mobile devices (eg, mobile phones and tablets) available to consumers these days. Gamifying disease management can help...

Total knee replacement for tricompartmental arthritis in a patient with a below-knee amputation after a previous closing wedge high tibial osteotomy.

Arthroplasty today

Fleming MA, Dixon MC.
PMID: 28326399
Arthroplast Today. 2016 Feb 11;2(2):53-56. doi: 10.1016/j.artd.2015.08.002. eCollection 2016 Jun.

This is a report of a 64-year-old man who had undergone a high tibial osteotomy (HTO) 17 years ago of his right knee for medial compartment osteoarthritis; 5 days later, he received a below-knee amputation owing to a missed...

Monitoring N3 dye adsorption and desorption on TiO2 surfaces: a combined QCM-D and XPS study.

ACS applied materials & interfaces

Wayment-Steele HK, Johnson LE, Tian F, Dixon MC, Benz L, Johal MS.
PMID: 24848580
ACS Appl Mater Interfaces. 2014 Jun 25;6(12):9093-9. doi: 10.1021/am500920w. Epub 2014 Jun 05.

Understanding the kinetics of dye adsorption and desorption on semiconductors is crucial for optimizing the performance of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). Quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (QCM-D) measures adsorbed mass in real time, allowing determination of binding kinetics....

Pediatric fractures - an educational needs assessment of Canadian pediatric emergency medicine residents.

Open access emergency medicine : OAEM

Mechanisms of drought response in Thuja occidentalis L. I. Water stress conditioning and osmotic adjustment.

Tree physiology

Edwards DR, Dixon MA.
PMID: 14965984
Tree Physiol. 1995 Feb;15(2):121-7. doi: 10.1093/treephys/15.2.121.

We investigated the extent of osmotic adjustment and changes in transpiration rate that occur in response to repeated cycles of water deficit stress in 6-year-old Thuja occidentalis L. (eastern white cedar) trees. Groups of trees were water-stress conditioned by...

Latissimus dorsi mini-flap: a technique for extending breast conservation.

Breast (Edinburgh, Scotland)
