This is a summary of a lecture presented at the 100th Anniversary, Moissan Symposium in Paris on Friday, 10 November 2006. The lecture highlighted recent developments on the enzyme structure, …more
The evaluation of drug pharmacodynamics and early tumour response are integral to current clinical trials of novel cancer therapeutics to explain or predict long term clinical benefit or to confirm …more
This functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) study examined changes in brain activation after prolonged (20 weeks) and stabilized treatment with the cholinesterase inhibitor galantamine in a small group of patients …more
Aberrant motor behaviour (AMB) in Alzheimer’s disease shares behavioural correlates with obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD). We investigated whether AMB was also comparable in terms of metabolic activity in the orbitofrontal …more
Remembering complex events requires binding features within unified objects (conjunctions) and holding associations between objects (relations). Recent studies suggest that the two functions dissociate in long-term memory (LTM). Less is …more
Background and Purpose. Previous studies of transcranial Doppler (TCD) sonography in acute stroke have used the relative difference between the symptomatic and asymptomatic arteries to assess arterial occlusion. However, a …more
Background and Purpose-The Oxfordshire Community Stroke Project (OCSP) devised a simple classification for acute stroke based on clinical features only, which is of value in predicting prognosis. We investigated whether …more
Background The value of quantitative CT (QCT) to identify chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) phenotypes is increasingly appreciated. The authors hypothesised that QCT-defined emphysema and airway abnormalities relate to St …more
