Kumar, A., Kingdon, E., Norman, J.

Isoprostanes, produced in vivo by non-enzymatic free-radical-induced lipid peroxidation, are markers of oxidative stress. Elevated serum and urine levels of 8-iso-PGF2α have been reported in a...

Expression and localization of cell adhesion molecules in human fetal membranes during parturition (2004)

Crawford, M, Jordan, F, Young, A, Norman, J

There is increasing evidence to support the view that human parturition represents an inflammatory process. We have previously demonstrated that parturition is associated with leukocyte invasion and...

EFFECT OF SUXAMETHONIUM GIVEN DURING RECOVERY FROM ATRACURIUM (1988)

SCOTT, R. P. F., NORMAN, J.

Suxamethonium was given in varying doses when twitch response had returned to 50% of control following the administration of atracurium in anaesthetized patients. Small doses of suxamethonium...

RESISTANCE OF HEIDBRINK-TYPE EXPIRATORY VALVES (1978)

NOTT, M. R., NORMAN, J.

The minimum resistance of expiratory Heidbrink-type valves has been assessed by determining the pressure decrease across the valves at a flow rate of 30 litre min−1. The average resistance of 70...
