A cortical model of object perception based on Bayesian networks and belief propagation.
(University of Plymouth, 2011)Evidence suggests that high-level feedback plays an important role in visual perception by shaping the response in lower cortical levels (Sillito et al. 2006, Angelucci and Bullier 2003, Bullier 2001, Harrison et al. ... -
Cortical oscillatory dynamics and benzodiazepine-site modulation of tonic inhibition in fast spiking interneurons.
(England, 2015-08)Tonic conductance mediated by extrasynaptic GABAA receptors has been implicated in the modulation of network oscillatory activity. Using an in vitro brain slice to produce oscillatory activity and a kinetic model of GABAA ... -
Coseismic throw variation across along‐strike bends on active normal faults: implications for displacement versus length scaling of earthquake ruptures
(American Geophysical Union, 2018-10-17) -
Cosmogenic dating of fluvial terraces in the Sorbas Basin, SE Spain
(Plymouth University, 2014)Long term fluvial incision spanning the Late Cenozoic is recorded in many fluvial systems around the world by terrace landform sequences. The incision manifests itself as inset sequences of river terraces which form terrace ... -
'THE COST OF BANKING ON EASTERN PROMISES' AN ETHNOGRAPHIC STUDY OF THE IMPACT OF CHANGING BANK STRATEGIES ON EMPLOYEES
(University of Plymouth, 2003)Banking is a major employment sector, which has experienced phenomenal growth over the last decade. Following the de-regulation of the financial marketplace and the entry of ‘new players', the industry has suffered from ... -
A cost-effectiveness analysis of water security and water quality: Impacts of climate and land-use change on the River Thames system
(2013-11-13)The catchment of the River Thames, the principal river system in southern England, provides the main water supply for London but is highly vulnerable to changes in climate, land use and population. The river is eutrophic ... -
The cost-effectiveness of patient-controlled analgesia vs. standard care in patients presenting to the emergency department in pain, who are subsequently admitted to hospital.
(2017-05-26)The clinical effectiveness of patient-controlled analgesia has been demonstrated in a variety of settings. However, patient-controlled analgesia is rarely utilised in the emergency department. The aim of this study was ... -
Cost-effectiveness of zoledronic acid and strontium-89 as bone protecting treatments in addition to chemotherapy in patients with metastatic castrate-refractory prostate cancer: results from the TRAPEZE trial (ISRCTN 12808747).
(England, 2017-04)OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the cost-effectiveness of adding zoledronic acid or strontium-89 to standard docetaxel chemotherapy for patients with castrate-refractory prostate cancer (CRPC). PATIENTS AND METHODS: Data on resource ... -

Costs and difficulties of recruiting patients to provide e-health support: pilot study in one primary care trust.
(England, 2012-03-29)BACKGROUND: Better use of e-health services by patients could improve outcomes and reduce costs but there are concerns about inequalities of access. Previous research in outpatients suggested that anonymous personal email ... -
Could Greater Time Spent Displaying Waking Inactivity in the Home Environment Be a Marker for a Depression-Like State in the Domestic Dog?
(MDPI, 2019-07-05)<jats:p>Dogs exposed to aversive events can become inactive and unresponsive and are commonly referred to as being “depressed”, but this association remains to be tested. We investigated whether shelter dogs spending ... -
Could negative affect be 'part' of the 'whole' picture in weak central coherence? A study of weak central coherence and its relation to affect and autistic traits
(University of Plymouth, 2012)Weak Central Coherence (WCC) is recognised as a major cognitive theory of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and is characterised by a processing bias for local information. Furthermore, individuals with ASD have been found ... -
Could this be a concrete solution to biodiversity loss?
