There is little research on the triage of patients who are not yet in cardiac arrest when the emergency call is initiated, but who deteriorate and suffer a cardiac arrest during the prehospital phase of care. The aim of this study was to investigate... Read More about Identifying patients at imminent risk of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest during the Emergency Medical call: The views of call-takers.

Model-free robust decentralised control of multi-input-multi-output nonlinear interconnected dynamic systems (2023)
Journal Article

This study presents a generalised framework for model-free robust decentralised control (MFRDC) of interconnected MIMO dynamic systems, with the goal of significantly reducing complexity in model-based design. A model-free robust sliding mode control... Read More about Model-free robust decentralised control of multi-input-multi-output nonlinear interconnected dynamic systems.

A systematic review on adherence to continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment for obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) in individuals with mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's disease dementia (2023)
Journal Article

Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is highly prevalent in mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and Alzheimer's disease (AD). The gold standard treatment for OSA is continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). Long-term, well-powered efficacy trials are require...

Jaw claudication and jaw stiffness in giant cell arteritis: Secondary analysis of a qualitative research dataset (2023)
Journal Article

Objective: Jaw symptoms can be a vital clue to the diagnosis of GCA. Guidelines recommend more intensive treatment if jaw claudication is present. We sought to explore how patients with GCA described their jaw symptoms. Methods: We carried out a seco...

The value of twinned pollinator-pollen metabarcoding: Bumblebee pollination service is weakly partitioned within a UK grassland community (2023)
Journal Article

Predicting ecological impact of declining bumblebee (Bombus) populations requires better understanding of interactions between pollinator partitioning of floral resources and plant partitioning of pollinator resources. Here, we combine Cytochrome Oxi... Read More about The value of twinned pollinator-pollen metabarcoding: Bumblebee pollination service is weakly partitioned within a UK grassland community.
