Exploring the Map of Medicine's potential in undergraduate medical education.
(England, 2011)BACKGROUND: Map of Medicine is a web-based knowledge resource depicting evidence-based pathways of patient care. Recent publications suggest a possible role for the Map of Medicine as a training tool in postgraduate ... -
Exploring the potential of cassava in promoting agricultural growth in Nigeria
(German Institute for Agriculture in the Tropics and Subtropics (DITSL GmbH), 2016-05-30)Cassava is one of the major food crops in Nigeria, with multiple uses from human consumption to industrial applications. This study explores the potential of cassava in Nigerian agriculture based on a review of cassava ... -
Exploring the relationship between childhood obesity and proximity to the coast: A rural/urban perspective
(2016-07)Abstract Childhood obesity is one of the 21st century's most serious global health challenges. Research suggests that better access to ‘greenspace’ (e.g. parks) may encourage physical activity and reduce the risk of obesity ... -
Exposing the key functions of a complex intervention for shared care in mental health: case study of a process evaluation.
(England, 2008-12-23)BACKGROUND: Complex interventions have components which can vary in different contexts. Using the Realistic Evaluation framework, this study investigates how a complex health services intervention led to developments in ... -
Exposure to tritiated water at an elevated temperature: Genotoxic and transcriptomic effects in marine mussels (M. galloprovincialis).
(Elsevier, 2016-11-01)Temperature is an abiotic factor of particular concern for assessing the potential impacts of radionuclides on marine species. This is particularly true for tritium, which is discharged as tritiated water (HTO) in the ... -
Expression of delta-like ligand 4 (Dll4) and markers of hypoxia in colon cancer.
(England, 2009-11-17)BACKGROUND: Delta-like ligand 4 (Dll4) is a Notch ligand that is upregulated by hypoxia and vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A) and is reported to have a role in tumor angiogenesis. Evidence from xenograft studies ... -

Expression of vascular notch ligand delta-like 4 and inflammatory markers in breast cancer.
(United States, 2010-04)Delta-like ligand 4 (Dll4) is a Notch ligand that is predominantly expressed in the endothelium. Evidence from xenografts suggests that inhibiting Dll4 may overcome resistance to antivascular endothelial growth factor ... -
Expression patterns of Slit and Robo family members in adult mouse spinal cord and peripheral nervous system.
(2017-02-24)The secreted glycoproteins, Slit1-3, are classic axon guidance molecules that act as repulsive cues through their well characterised receptors Robo1-2 to allow precise axon pathfinding and neuronal migration. The expression ... -
Extended particle-in-cell schemes for physics in ultrastrong laser fields: Review and developments.
(United States, 2015-08)We review common extensions of particle-in-cell (PIC) schemes which account for strong field phenomena in laser-plasma interactions. After describing the physical processes of interest and their numerical implementation, ... -
Extracellular matrix: functions in the nervous system.
(United States, 2011-01-01)An astonishing number of extracellular matrix glycoproteins are expressed in dynamic patterns in the developing and adult nervous system. Neural stem cells, neurons, and glia express receptors that mediate interactions ... -
Extracting palaeoflood data from coarse-grained Pleistocene river terrace archives: an example from SE Spain
(Wiley, 2016-08-30)Field based palaeoflood event reconstruction has the potential to contribute to the development of our understanding of longterm landscape evolution. However the reconstruction of past flow event histories (magnitude and ...
