Relationships between carbon sources, trophic level and mercury exposure in generalist shorebirds revealed by stable isotope ratios in chicks (2009)

Tavares, P.C., McGill, R.A.R., Newton, J., Pereira, E., Duarte, A.C., Furness, R.W.

Mercury exposure may he linked to several sources of variation related to habitat conditions and species ecology. In generalist birds, feeding habits may change quickly in response to environmental...

European College of Gerodontology: Undergraduate curriculum guidelines in Gerodontology (2009)

Kassioni, A, Vanobbergen, Jacques, Newton, J, Müller, F, Heath, R

Effective undergraduate teaching of gerodontology to present and future dental students is important if good oral health care of older people is to be assured. A review of the undergraduate...

Perceived fatigue is comparable between different disease groups (2009)

Jones, D.E.J., Gray, J.C., Newton, J.

Background: Studies have established that levels of fatigue vary between different patient groups. It is less clear whether the nature, as opposed to severity of fatigue differs between groups....

A STATISTICAL MECHANICAL VIEW OF KALMAN FILTERING ∗ (2008)

Sanjoy K. Mitter, J. Newton

Abstract. We develop a physical analogy for the Kalman-Bucy filter, in which the partially observed signal describes a statistical mechanical system interacting with a heat bath. The ‘universe ’...

Habitat utilisation during staging affects body condition in a long distance migrant, Branta bernicla hrota: potential impacts on fitness? (2008)

Inger, R., Gudmundsson, G.A., Ruxton, G.D., Newton, J., Colhoun, K., Auhage, S., ...

There is considerable evidence to suggest that an animal's ability to access the appropriate resources at one time of year may profoundly restrict its performance at another. For migrants, wintering...

Alternative migration and host parasitism strategies and their long-term stability in river lampreys from the River Endrick, Scotland (2008)

Adams, C.E., Bissett, N., Newton, J., Maitland, P.S.

The stability of a discrete body size dimorphism of sexually mature river lamprey Lampetra fluviatilis from the River Endrick, Scotland, was examined over a 21 year period. Stable isotope analysis...

Investigating dietary preferences in two competing dipterans, Coelopa frigida and Coelopa pillipes, using stable isotope ratios of carbon and nitrogen (2008)

Edward, D.A., Newton, J., Gilburn, A.S.

Two species of seaweed fly, Coelopa frigida (Fabricius) and Coelopa pilipes (Halliday) (both Diptera: Coelopidae: Coelopini), compete for resources within deposits of marine algae washed ashore on...

Stable isotope analysis of the Hypoplectrus species complex reveals no evidence for dietary niche divergence (2008)

Holt, B.G., Emerson, B.C., Newton, J., Gage, M.J.G., Cote, I.M.

The polymorphic coral reef fish genus Hypoplectrus (hamlets) provides an excellent system for examining the initial stages of natural biological divergence in the expansive marine environment....

Interaction between statins and clopidogrel: is there anything clinically relevant? (2008)

Bhindi, R., Ormerod, O., Newton, J., Banning, A.P., Testa, L.

Since their introduction several years ago, the 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMGCoA) reductase inhibitors—the statins—have been widely used for hyperlipidemia and for the...

Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome is an under-recognized condition in chronic fatigue syndrome (2008)

Hoad, A., Spickett, G., Elliott, J., Newton, J.

Background: It has been suggested that postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) be considered in the differential diagnosis of those with chronic fatigue syndrome/myalgic encephalomyelitis...

Assortative mating as a mechanism for rapid evolution of a migratory divide (2005)

Bearhop, S., Fiedler, W., Furness, R.W., Votier, S.C., Waldron, S., Newton, J., ...

There have been numerous recent observations of changes in the behavior and dynamics of migratory bird populations, but the plasticity of the migratory trait and our inability to track small animals...

Non-inherited maternal HLA alleles are associated with rheumatoid arthritis (2003)

Harney, S., Newton, J., Milicic, A., Brown, M. A., Wordsworth, B. P.

Background. Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is strongly associated with a series of HLA-DRB1 alleles that encode a conserved sequence of amino acids (70Q/R K/R R A A74) in the DRβ1 chain, known as the...

Non-inherited maternal HLA alleles are associated with rheumatoid arthritis (2003)

Harney, S, Newton, J, Milicic, A, Brown, MA, Wordsworth, BP

Background. Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is strongly associated with a series of HLA-DRB1 alleles that encode a conserved sequence of amino acids ((70)Q/R K/R RAA(74)) in the DRbeta1 chain, known as the...

The effect of HLA-DR on susceptibility to rheumatoid arthritis is influenced by the associated lymphotoxin alpha-tumor necrosis factor haplotype (2003)

Newton, J, Brown, MA, Milicic, A, Ackerman, H, Darke, C, Wilson, JN, ...

Objective. HLA-DRB1, a major genetic determinant of susceptibility to rheumatoid arthritis (RA), is located within 1,000 kb of the gene encoding tumor necrosis factor (TNF). Because certain...

Geochemistry of carbonaceous impactites from the Gardnos impact structure, Norway (2003)

Gilmour, I., French, B.M., Franchi, I.A., Abbott, J.I., Hough, R.M., Newton, J., ...

The Gardnos impact structure in southern Norway is one of only two known impact structures (among similar to175) whose impactites contain significant amounts (typically 0.2-1.0 wt.%) of carbon, or 5...
