The effects of dwarfing genes on seedling root growth of wheat (2009)

Wojciechowski, T., Gooding, M.J., Ramsay, L., Gregory, P.J.

Most modern wheat cultivars contain major dwarfing genes, but their effects on root growth are unclear. Near-isogenic lines (NILs) containing Rht-B1b, Rht-D1b, Rht-B1c, Rht8c, Rht-D1c, and Rht12 were...

Computational and experimental characterization of physically clustered simple sequence repeats in plants.

Cardle, L, Ramsay, L, Milbourne, D, Macaulay, M, Marshall, D, Waugh, R

The type and frequency of simple sequence repeats (SSRs) in plant genomes was investigated using the expanding quantity of DNA sequence data deposited in public databases. In Arabidopsis, 306 genomic...

A simple sequence repeat-based linkage map of barley.

Ramsay, L, Macaulay, M, Degli Ivanissevich, S, MacLean, K, Cardle, L, Fuller, J, ...

A total of 568 new simple sequence repeat (SSR)-based markers for barley have been developed from a combination of database sequences and small insert genomic libraries enriched for a range of short...

Management guidelines in essential hypertension: report of the second working party of the British Hypertension Society.

Sever, P, Beevers, G, Bulpitt, C, Lever, A, Ramsay, L, Reid, J, ...

Several important new issues have arisen in the management of patients with hypertension. A working party of the British Hypertension Society has therefore reviewed available intervention studies on...

Plasma uric acid and plasma albumin in healthy subjects.

Ramsay, L, Mitchell, T, Shelton, J

In healthy male subjects there was a positive correlation between plasma uric acid and plasma albumin (r = 0 - 43, P less than 0 - 005, n = 49) when repeated measurements of both variables were used...

Is the Framingham risk function valid for northern European populations? A comparison of methods for estimating absolute coronary risk in high risk men

Haq, I, Ramsay, L, Yeo, W, Jackson, P, Wallis, E

Objective—To examine the validity of estimates of coronary heart disease (CHD) risk by the Framingham risk function, for European populations.
Design—Comparison of CHD risk estimates for...

Cost effectiveness of HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor (statin) treatment related to the risk of coronary heart disease and cost of drug treatment

Pickin, D, McCabe, C, Ramsay, L, Payne, N, Haq, I, Yeo, W, ...

OBJECTIVES—To estimate the cost effectiveness of statin treatment in preventing coronary heart disease (CHD) and to examine the effect of the CHD risk level targeted and the cost of statins on the...

Aspirin for primary prevention of coronary heart disease: safety and absolute benefit related to coronary risk derived from meta-analysis of randomised trials

Sanmuganathan, P, Ghahramani, P, Jackson, P, Wallis, E, Ramsay, L

OBJECTIVE—To determine the cardiovascular and coronary risk thresholds at which aspirin for primary prevention of coronary heart disease is safe and worthwhile.
DESIGN—Meta-analysis of four...

Population implications of lipid lowering for prevention of coronary heart disease: data from the 1995 Scottish health survey

Haq, I, Ramsay, L, Wallis, E, Isles, C, Ritchie, L, Jackson, P

OBJECTIVE—To determine the proportion of the population, firstly, with cholesterol ⩾ 5.0 mmol/l and, secondly, with any cholesterol concentration, who might benefit from statin treatment for...

Injury surveillance in an accident and emergency department: a year in the life of CHIRPP

Morrison, A, Stone, D, Doraiswamy, N, Ramsay, L

BACKGROUND—The design of childhood injury prevention programmes is hindered by a dearth of valid and reliable information on injury frequency, cause, and outcome. A number of local injury...
