Investigating Browne's method (2021)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Results supports Browne’s procedure of pilot sample size determination. However the data reveals that the procedure underestimates and overestimates sample size. Fig. 1 shows 𝛼 and 𝛽 have no practical effect on degree of excess which increases as... Read More about Investigating Browne's method.

Protocol for a national cohort study to explore the long-term clinical and patient-reported outcomes and cost-effectiveness of implant-based and autologous breast reconstruction after mastectomy for breast cancer: The Brighter Study (2021)
Journal Article

Introduction Breast reconstruction (BR) is offered to improve quality of life for women with breast cancer undergoing mastectomy. As most women will be long-Term breast cancer survivors, high-quality information regarding the long-Term outcomes of di...

“They were aware of who I was as a person”: Patients’ and health professionals’ experiences of using the PEGASUS intervention to facilitate decision-making around breast reconstruction (2021)
Journal Article

Objective: Many women choose to have breast reconstruction after mastectomy, however, decision-making can be difficult and expectations are often unmet. The PEGASUS intervention (Patient Expectations and Goals: Assisting Shared Understanding of Surge...

Protocol for a mixed-method study to inform the feasibility of undertaking a large-scale multicentre study comparing the clinical and patient-reported outcomes of oncoplastic breast conservation as an alternative to mastectomy with or without immediate breast reconstruction in women unsuitable for standard breast-conserving surgery (the ANTHEM Feasibility Study) (2021)
Journal Article

Introduction: Approximately 40% of the 55,000 women diagnosed with breast cancer each year in the UK undergo mastectomy because they are considered unsuitable for standard breast conserving surgery (BCS) due to tumour size or multiple tumour foci. Ma...

Advanced molecular characterization using Digital Spatial Profiling Technology on immuno-oncology targets in methylated compared with unmethylated IDH-wildtype glioblastoma (2021)
Journal Article

Introduction. Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common primary adult brain tumour with a median overall survival (OS) of 12-15 months. Molecular characterization of multiple immunooncology targets in GBM may help target novel immunotherapeutic strategie...

A single arm phase II trial of neoadjuvant cabazitaxel and cisplatin chemotherapy for muscle invasive transitional cell carcinoma of the urinary bladder (2021)
Journal Article

Introduction: Neoadjuvant cisplatin-based combination chemotherapy improves survival in muscle-invasive bladder cancer. However, response rates and survival remain suboptimal. We evaluated the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of cisplatin plus caba...

Fixed bearing, all-polyethylene tibia, lateral unicompartmental arthroplasty – A final outcome study with up to 28 year follow-up of a single implant (2021)
Journal Article

Background: Lateral unicompartmental arthroplasty (UKA) constitutes only 5–10% of all unicompartmental replacements performed. Whilst the short and medium term benefits are well documented, there remains concern regarding the higher revision rate whe...
