Mesons in gauge/gravity duals: a review (2008)
Erdmenger, J., Evans, N., Kirsch, I., Threlfall, E.J.
We review recent progress in studying mesons within gauge/gravity duality, in the context of adding flavour degrees of freedom to generalizations of the AdS/CFT correspondence. Our main focus is on...
Richardson, J., Smith, J., McCall, G., Richardson, A., Pilkington, K., Kirsch, I.
To systematically review the research evidence on the effectiveness of hypnosis for cancer chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV). A comprehensive search of major biomedical databases...
Efficacy of antidepressants in adults (2005)
Most people with depression are initially treated with antidepressants. But how well do the data support their use, and should we reconsider our strategy?
Generalizations of the AdS/CFT correspondence (2004)
We consider generalizations of the AdS/CFT correspondence in which probe branes are embedded in gravity backgrounds dual to either conformal or confining gauge theories. These correspond to defect...
A gravity dual of chiral symmetry breaking (2004)
Babington, J., Erdmenger, J., Evans, N.J., Guralnik, Z., Kirsch, I.
We establish a holographic description of chiral symmetry breaking for a particular confining large N non-supersymmetric gauge theory with matter in the fundamental representation. The gravity dual...
Chiral symmetry breaking and pions in nonsupersymmetric gauge/gravity duals (2004)
Babington, J., Erdmenger, J., Evans, N.J., Guralnik, Z., Kirsch, I.
We study gravity duals of large N nonsupersymmetric gauge theories with matter in the fundamental representation by introducing a D7-brane probe into deformed AdS backgrounds. In particular, we...

Reading for change : performance and engagement across countries : results of PISA 2000 (2003)
Kirsch, I, De Jong, J, Lafontaine, Dominique, McQueen, J, Mendelovits, J, Monseur, Christian
(De)constructing Intersecting M5-branes (2002)
Constable, N. R., Erdmenger, J., Guralnik, Z., Kirsch, I.
We describe intersecting M5-branes, as well as M5-branes wrapping the holomorphic curve xy=c, in terms of a limit of a defect conformal field theory with two-dimensional (4,0) supersymmetry. This...
Deletion of Alu sequences in the fifth c-sis intron in individuals with meningiomas.
Smidt, M, Kirsch, I, Ratner, L
An abnormality in the c-sis protooncogene was identified in leukocyte DNA from members of a family predisposed to the development of meningioma, and was found to be associated with the development of...
Taub, R, Kirsch, I, Morton, C, Lenoir, G, Swan, D, Tronick, S, ...
The consistent appearance of specific chromosomal translocations in human Burkitt lymphomas and murine plasmacytomas has suggested that these translocations might play a role in malignant...
Erbb is linked to the alpha-globin locus on mouse chromosome 11.
Silver, J, Whitney, J B, Kozak, C, Hollis, G, Kirsch, I
A fragment of the human gene for c-erb-B was used to map homologous sequences in mice. Analysis of somatic cell hybrids and recombinant inbred and congenic mouse strains indicated that this gene,...
Prognostic significance of DNA replication errors in young patients with colorectal cancer.
Lukish, J R, Muro, K, DeNobile, J, Katz, R, Williams, J, Cruess, D F, ...
OBJECTIVE: To determine the DNA replication error (RER) status in young patients with colorectal cancer (CRC), and to compare the clinical and pathologic characteristics of RER-positive and...

Therapeutic outcome of patients suffering from malignant melanomas of the conjunctiva.
Lommatzsch, P. K., Lommatzsch, R. E., Kirsch, I., Fuhrmann, P.
Eighty-one cases of conjunctival melanoma treated between 1960 and 1988 were studied to determine factors that might affect outcome in patients with such lesions. The therapeutic procedures performed...
