Different dietary approaches for the treatment of obesity and the phenotypic responses to these diets. (2009)
Thesis
HESSION, M. 2009. Different dietary approaches for the treatment of obesity and the phenotypic responses to these diets. Robert Gordon University, PhD thesis.

Currents treatments for obesity have been unsuccessful. It is essential that a patient-centred approach for obesity management is developed and for this to be successful other diet and lifestyle approaches need to be considered. A systematic review c...

Menstrual cycle variations in oestradiol and progesterone have no impact on in vivo medial gastrocnemius tendon mechanical properties. (2009)
Journal Article
BURGESS, K.E., PEARSON, S.J. and ONAMBÉLÉ, G.L. 2009. Menstrual cycle variations in oestradiol and progesterone have no impact on in vivo medial gastrocnemius tendon mechanical properties. Clinical biomechanics [online], 24(6), pages 504-509. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.clinbiomech.2009.03.011

Tendon tissue contains oestrogen receptors and is therefore likely to be responsive to female sex hormones. Here we examine any effect of levels of female sex hormones associated with the menstrual cycle phase on corresponding tendon mechanical prope...

Early catastrophic acetabular failure in Furlong total hip replacements. (2009)
Journal Article
KNOX, D., HAMILTON, S.W., WARDLAW, D. and GIBSON, P.H. 2009. Early catastrophic acetabular failure in Furlong total hip replacements. Journal of orthopaedics and traumatology [online], 10(1), pages 39-42. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1007/s10195-008-0045-z

The use of uncemented hip arthroplasty prostheses with ceramic articulations are popular, especially in the young, because of a perceived reduction in wear. We highlight a complication of ceramic on polyethylene articulating couples not previously de... Read More about Early catastrophic acetabular failure in Furlong total hip replacements..
