K MacFarlane - Widening Participation and Lifelong Learning, 2019 - ingentaconnect.com

Inequality of participation in higher education persists despite a wealth of research and interventions. This has led to calls to rethink what it means to be university ready, especially for learners from disadvantaged backgrounds, many of whom are first-generation...

Behavior Problems and Post-traumatic Stress Symptoms in Children Beginning School: A Comparison of Pre- and Post-Earthquake Groups.

Murphy D, Chandna A, Laing A, MacFarlane M.
PMID: 26396625
Asian J Neurosurg. 2015 Jul-Sep;10(3):262-4. doi: 10.4103/1793-5482.161168.

The syndrome of spontaneous intracranial hypotension is often difficult to treat. Unfortunately, cerebrospinal fluid leaks are often numerous and difficult to detect radiologically. Multiple entries to the spinal epidural space, in an effort to alleviate symptoms, are therefore sometimes...

Indwelling urinary catheters are a commonly used invasive medical device within acute and non-acute settings in NHS Scotland. The second National Survey of the Prevalence of Hospital Acquired Infection (HAI) in Scotland 2011 identified that 19.2% of patients surveyed...

The evidence base for managing older persons with low back pain.

British journal of pain

Schild von Spannenberg S, Jones GT, Macfarlane GJ.
PMID: 26516489
Br J Pain. 2012 Nov;6(4):166-9. doi: 10.1177/2049463712466323.

It has been suggested that older persons are less likely to receive optimal care for pain, and a recent population study suggested that management of low back pain (LBP) in primary care differed with older age. Low back pain...

Pain reporting in older adults: the influence of cognitive impairment - results from the Cambridge City >75 Cohort study.

British journal of pain

Docking RE, Fleming J, Brayne C, Zhao J, Macfarlane GJ, Jones GT.

Br J Pain. 2014 Aug;8(3):119-24. doi: 10.1177/2049463714527437.

OBJECTIVES: Evidence suggests that while disabling back pain (BP), and rheumatic diseases associated with pain, continues to increase with age, the prevalence of non-disabling BP reaches a plateau, or even decreases, in the oldest old. This study aimed to...

Data sharing is becoming more of a requirement as technologies mature and as global research and communications diversify. As a result, researchers are looking for practical solutions, not only to enhance scientific collaborations, but also to acquire larger amounts...

Calibrated simulations of Z opacity experiments that reproduce the experimentally measured plasma conditions.

Physical review. E

Nagayama T, Bailey JE, Loisel G, Rochau GA, MacFarlane JJ, Golovkin I.
PMID: 26986427
Phys Rev E. 2016 Feb;93(2):023202. doi: 10.1103/PhysRevE.93.023202. Epub 2016 Feb 05.

Recently, frequency-resolved iron opacity measurements at electron temperatures of 170-200 eV and electron densities of (0.7-4.0)×10(22)cm(-3) revealed a 30-400% disagreement with the calculated opacities [J. E. Bailey et al., Nature (London) 517, 56 (2015)]. The discrepancies have a high...

Biological market forces shape patterns of cooperation typical of small-scale human societies that are organized by division of labor based on age and gender. Labor specialization promotes trade, while supply and demand affect the amount individuals exchange for commodities.

A case of gallstone-induced small bowel necrosis masquerading as clinical appendicitis.

Clinical journal of gastroenterology

Liau SS, Bamber A, MacFarlane M, Alberts J.
PMID: 26192304

Cholecysto-duodenal fistula and gallstone ileus are well-recognised complications of gallstone disease. However, small bowel necrosis is a rare complication of gallstone disease. We describe a case of gallstone-induced ileal necrosis presenting with symptoms and signs resembling acute appendicitis. A...
