Are patients with newly diagnosed breast cancer getting appropriate DEXA scans? A District General Hospital experience.

BMJ quality improvement reports

Dong H, Dayananda P, Preece SA, Carmichael A.
PMID: 26734446
BMJ Qual Improv Rep. 2015 Nov 17;4(1). doi: 10.1136/bmjquality.u209414.w3856. eCollection 2015.

Breast cancer patients are often at high risk of fragility fractures partly due to adjuvant endocrine therapy such as aromatase inhibitors and chemotherapy. Baseline dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) scanning is recommended as a standard of care in identifying...

Twelve tips for setting up an ambulatory care (outpatient) teaching centre.

Medical teacher

Dent JA, Ker JS, Angell-Preece HM, Preece PE.
PMID: 12098380
Med Teach. 2001 Jul;23(4):345-350. doi: 10.1080/01421590120057012.

The ambulatory care setting is becoming an increasingly important environment for clinical teaching. This reflects the changing focus of healthcare delivery with more procedures and patient treatment being delivered in this setting. Maximizing learning opportunities for students without compromising...

Fractal Morphology and Breakage of DLCA and RLCA Aggregates.

Journal of colloid and interface science

Tang S, Preece JM, McFarlane CM, Zhang Z.
PMID: 10623457
J Colloid Interface Sci. 2000 Jan 01;221(1):114-123. doi: 10.1006/jcis.1999.6565.

Latex aggregates, formed in 1 M McIlvaine buffer solution and 0.2 M NaCl solution, have been characterized in terms of aggregate size distribution and fractal morphology. This was achieved using three sizing techniques (image analysis, laser scattering, and electrical...

Ancient permafrost and a future, warmer Arctic.

Science (New York, N.Y.)

Froese DG, Westgate JA, Reyes AV, Enkin RJ, Preece SJ.
PMID: 18801991
Science. 2008 Sep 19;321(5896):1648. doi: 10.1126/science.1157525.

Climate models predict extensive and severe degradation of permafrost in response to global warming, with a potential for release of large volumes of stored carbon. However, the accuracy of these models is difficult to evaluate because little is known...

Hysteresis of charge tunneling in assemblies of carboxylic acid-modified gold nanoparticles.

The journal of physical chemistry. B

Biancardo M, Quinn AJ, Floyd L, Mendes PM, Briggs SS, Preece JA, Bignozzi CA, Redmond G.
PMID: 16852032
J Phys Chem B. 2005 May 12;109(18):8718-22. doi: 10.1021/jp0447338.

We report on charge transport measurements through laterally contacted assemblies of Au nanoparticles capped with 11-mercaptoundecanoic acid ligands. Both alternating- and direct-current data indicate that although the nanoparticles behave as electrically isolated metallic islands, there is a significant influence...

Nanodomain swelling block copolymer lithography for morphology tunable metal nanopatterning.

Small (Weinheim an der Bergstrasse, Germany)

Mun JH, Cha SK, Kim H, Moon HS, Kim JY, Jin HM, Choi YJ, Baek JE, Shin J, Kim SO, Filbeck G, Foster B, Preece D.
PMID: 24821268
Small. 2014 Sep 24;10(18):3742-9. doi: 10.1002/smll.201400600. Epub 2014 May 13.

Ordered metal nanopatterns are crucial requirements for electronics, magnetics, catalysts, photonics, and so on. Despite considerable progress in the synthetic route to metal nanostructures, highly ordered metal nanopatterning over a large-area is still challenging. Nanodomain swelling block copolymer lithography...

Heterosupramolecular chemistry: programmed pseudorotaxane assembly at the surface of a nanocrystal.

Angewandte Chemie (International ed. in English)

Fitzmaurice D, Rao SN, Preece JA, Stoddart JF, Wenger S, Zaccheroni N.
PMID: 25138525
Angew Chem Int Ed Engl. 1999;38(8):1147-50. doi: 10.1002/(SICI)1521-3773(19990419)38:8<1147::AID-ANIE1147>3.0.CO;2-A.

Gold nanocrystals, stabilized by thiols covalently bound to a dibenzo[24]crown-8 moiety, have been programmed to recognize and selectively bind dibenzylammonium cations in solution. This results in a self-organization process at the surface of a nanocrystal with the assembly of...

Optimization of reflectometry experiments using information theory.

Journal of applied crystallography

Treece BW, Kienzle PA, Hoogerheide DP, Majkrzak CF, Lösche M, Heinrich F.
PMID: 30800029
J Appl Crystallogr. 2019 Feb 01;52:47-59. doi: 10.1107/S1600576718017016. eCollection 2019 Feb 01.

A framework based on Bayesian statistics and information theory is developed to optimize the design of surface-sensitive reflectometry experiments. The method applies to model-based reflectivity data analysis, uses simulated reflectivity data and is capable of optimizing experiments that probe...

Optical force-induced nonlinearity and self-guiding of light in human red blood cell suspensions.

Light, science & applications

Gautam R, Xiang Y, Lamstein J, Liang Y, Bezryadina A, Liang G, Hansson T, Wetzel B, Preece D, White A, Silverman M, Kazarian S, Xu J, Morandotti R, Chen Z.

Osmotic conditions play an important role in the cell properties of human red blood cells (RBCs), which are crucial for the pathological analysis of some blood diseases such as malaria. Over the past decades, numerous efforts have mainly focused...

Ants as ecological indicators of rainforest restoration: Community convergence and the development of an Ant Forest Indicator Index in the Australian wet tropics.
