Subsidence and human influences in mega deltas: The case of the Ganges-Brahmaputra-Meghna.

The Science of the total environment

Brown S, Nicholls RJ.
PMID: 25974280
Sci Total Environ. 2015 Sep 15;527:362-74. doi: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2015.04.124. Epub 2015 May 14.

Relative sea/land level changes are fundamental to people living in deltas. Net subsidence is complex and attributed to tectonics, compaction, sedimentation and anthropogenic causes. It can have severe impacts and needs to be quantified and where possible (for subsidence...

Crystal Structure of the ZrO Phase at Zirconium/Zirconium Oxide Interfaces.

Advanced engineering materials

Nicholls RJ, Ni N, Lozano-Perez S, London A, McComb DW, Nellist PD, Grovenor CR, Pickard CJ, Yates JR.
PMID: 25892957
Adv Eng Mater. 2015 Feb;17(2):211-215. doi: 10.1002/adem.201400133. Epub 2014 Jun 27.

Zirconium-based alloys are used in water-cooled nuclear reactors for both nuclear fuel cladding and structural components. Under this harsh environment, the main factor limiting the service life of zirconium cladding, and hence fuel burn-up efficiency, is water corrosion. This...

Role of ATP in nitrite reduction in roots of wheat and pea.

Planta

Dry I, Wallace W, Nicholas DJ.
PMID: 24302420
Planta. 1981 Jul;152(3):234-8. doi: 10.1007/BF00385149.

Excised wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and field pea (Pisum arvense L.) roots, incubated under anaerobic conditions or in the presence of uncouplers of oxidative phosphorylation [2,4-dinitrophenol (DNP), carbonylcyanide-m-chlorophenylhydrazone, pentachlorophenol] accumulated nitrite as a result of an inhibition of nitrite...

High tibial osteotomy: a retrospective analysis of 30 cases.

Orthopedics

Chillag KJ, Nicholls PJ.
PMID: 24822686
Orthopedics. 1984 Dec 01;7(12):1821-2. doi: 10.3928/0147-7447-19841201-07.

In this review of 28 patients who had 30 high tibial valgus osteotomies done, with an average followup of 51 months, 43% were judged as satisfactory and 57% were judged as poor, according to the criteria of Harris and...

A user-friendly database of coastal flooding in the United Kingdom from 1915-2014.

Scientific data

Haigh ID, Wadey MP, Gallop SL, Loehr H, Nicholls RJ, Horsburgh K, Brown JM, Bradshaw E.
PMID: 25984352
Sci Data. 2015 May 12;2:150021. doi: 10.1038/sdata.2015.21. eCollection 2015.

Coastal flooding caused by extreme sea levels can be devastating, with long-lasting and diverse consequences. Historically, the UK has suffered major flooding events, and at present 2.5 million properties and £150 billion of assets are potentially exposed to coastal...

Regulation of Angiopoietin Signalling by Soluble Tie2 Ectodomain and Engineered Ligand Trap.

Scientific reports

Alawo DOA, Tahir TA, Fischer M, Bates DG, Amirova SR, Brindle NPJ.
PMID: 28623351
Sci Rep. 2017 Jun 16;7(1):3658. doi: 10.1038/s41598-017-03981-6.

Angiopoietin-1 (Angpt1) is a glycoprotein ligand important for maintaining the vascular system. It signals via a receptor tyrosine kinase expressed on the surface on endothelial cells, Tie2. This receptor can undergo regulated ectodomain cleavage that releases the ligand-binding domain...

A comparison of peer and non-peer exposure to unwanted early sexual experiences among students in South Africa and Belgium.

Journal of child and adolescent mental health

Revell AT, Nicholas LJ.
PMID: 25860421
J Child Adolesc Ment Health. 2013;25(2):149-59. doi: 10.2989/17280583.2013.810629.

OBJECTIVE: This study examined peer and non-peer unwanted early sexual experiences (UESE) among 3,689 university students to establish whether peer UESE is as coercive and bothersome as non-peer UESE.METHOD: A self-report checklist was administered to all consenting students attending...

Enhanced Hole Extraction in Perovskite Solar Cells Through Carbon Nanotubes.

The journal of physical chemistry letters

Habisreutinger SN, Leijtens T, Eperon GE, Stranks SD, Nicholas RJ, Snaith HJ.
PMID: 26278955
J Phys Chem Lett. 2014 Dec 04;5(23):4207-12. doi: 10.1021/jz5021795. Epub 2014 Nov 20.

Here, we report the use of polymer-wrapped carbon nanotubes as a means to enhance charge extraction through undoped spiro-OMeTAD. With this approach a good solar cell performance is achieved without the implementation of conventional doping methods. We demonstrate that...

Optical coherence tomography for serial in vivo imaging of aortic plaque in the rabbit: a preliminary experience.

Open heart

Fulcher J, Patel S, Nicholls SJ, Bao S, Celermajer D.
PMID: 26468403

Progression of coronary atherosclerosis in African-American patients.

Cardiovascular diagnosis and therapy

Kataoka Y, Hsu A, Wolski K, Uno K, Puri R, Tuzcu EM, Nissen SE, Nicholls SJ.

BACKGROUND: African-Americans with coronary artery disease (CAD) demonstrate worse clinical outcomes than Caucasians. While this is partly due to a lack of accessibility to established therapies, the mechanisms underlying this difference remain to be elucidated. We aimed to characterize...
