A Cell Proliferation Signature Is a Marker of Extremely Poor Outcome in a Subpopulation of Breast Cancer Patients (2005)

Dai, H., Lamb, J., He, Y., Mao, M., Fine, B.M., ...

Seeing red: the use of Congo Red dye to identify cooked and damaged starch grains in archaeological residues (2005)

Lamb, J, Loy, T

Starchy plant foods are significant in the diet of almost all peoples. Archaeologically, however, preservation of such plants is limited, and direct evidence of plant use by past people is also rare....

Experimental validation of models for predicting optimal surface quality sterilization temperatures (1994)

Oliveira, Far, Lamb, J, Torres, Ap

An experimental procedure was developed to validate experimentally the theoretical optimal process temperatures giving the maximum quality at the surface of conduction heating products for specified...

Multiple arrangements of the human embryonic zeta globin genes (1982)

Winichagoon, P., Higgs, D.R., Goodbourn, S.E.Y., Lamb, J., Clegg, J.B., Weatherall, D.J.

Rearrangements which are most readily explained by homologous crossover between misaligned segments of DNA in the region of the human embryonic zeta (ζ) globin genes have been identified in...

Age related differences in the disposition of acetanilide.

Playfer, J R, Baty, J D, Lamb, J, Powell, C, Price-Evans, D A

1 The metabolism of fifteen elderly hospital in-patients and fifteen young people was studied, using a gas chromatography mass spectrometer method. 2 The results suggest that there is no significant...

Relaxation of guinea-pig trachea by cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase inhibitors and their enhancement by sodium nitroprusside.

Turner, N. C., Lamb, J., Worby, A., Murray, K. J.

1. The effects of agents that elevate either cyclic AMP (the phosphodiesterase (PDE) III inhibitor siguazodan, salbutamol) or cyclic GMP (sodium nitroprusside (SNP)) on the relaxant activity of the...

Pulmonary effects of type V cyclic GMP specific phosphodiesterase inhibition in the anaesthetized guinea-pig.

Turner, N. C., Dolan, J. S., Grimsditch, D., Lamb, J., Worby, A., Murray, K. J., ...

1. We have investigated the bronchodilator potential of type V phosphodiesterase (PDE V) inhibitors in anaesthetized ventilated guinea-pigs using the potent and selective PDE V inhibitor, SK&F 96231....

Localized granuloma annulare and autoimmune thyroid disease. Are they associated?

Moran, J., Lamb, J.

This case report identifies a temporal relationship between the diagnosis of localized granuloma annulare and the subsequent development of primary hypothyroidism in a previously healthy 10-year-old...

Guidance for the planning and design of genitourinary medicine clinics.

Thin, R N, Lamb, J

The number of patients attending genitourinary medicine (GUM) clinics in Britain has risen greatly in recent years. In contrast there have been very modest increases in staff and there are no data on...
