EVALUATION STUDY OF BUILDING-RESOLVED URBAN DISPERSION MODELS (2008)

J. E. Flaherty, K. J. Allwine, M. J. Brown, W. J. Coirier, S. C. Ericson, O. R. Hansen, ...

For effective emergency response and recovery planning, it is critically important that building-resolved urban dispersion models be evaluated using field data. Several full-physics

The heritability of plasma homocysteine, and the influence of genetic variation in the homocysteine methylation pathway (2007)

Siva, A., De Lange, M., Clayton, D., Monteith, S., Spector, T., Brown, M.J.

Background: The extent of genetic influence on plasma homocysteine, a risk factor for ischaemic heart disease, is uncertain. Many association studies have investigated common polymorphisms and their...

Calculation of phenomenological coefficients by Monte Carlo computer simulation methods (2006)

Belova, I. V., Brown, M. J., Murch, G. E.

In this paper we first review the principal indirect and direct Monte Carlo methods for calculating the Onsager phenomenological transport coefficients in solid state diffusion. We propose a new...

Belova, I. V., Brown, M. J., Murch, G. E.

In this paper we first review the principal indirect and direct Monte Carlo methods for calculating the Onsager phenomenological transport coefficients in solid state diffusion. We propose a new...

Increased stroke volume and aortic stiffness contribute to isolated systolic hypertension in young adults (2005)

McEniery, C. M., Wallace, S., Maki-Petaja, K., McDonnell, B., Sharman, J. E., ...

Isolated systolic hypertension is a common condition in individuals aged older than 60 years. However, isolated systolic hypertension has also been described in young individuals, although the...

Analysis of kinetic demixing in a mixed oxide (A,B)O in an oxygen potential gradient (2003)

Belova, I. V., Brown, M. J., Murch, G. E.

It is well known that homogeneous mixed oxides (A,B)O show kinetic demixing of the cations when exposed at high temperatures to an oxygen potential gradient. This paper shows that when the cation...

Noise Exposure and Hearing Loss among Student Employees Working in University Entertainment Venues (2002)

SADHRA, S., JACKSON, C. A., RYDER, T., BROWN, M. J.

Objectives: Most studies to date on sound levels in entertainment establishments have concentrated on exposure levels for the attending public, rather than employees who may be at greater risk of...

Principal results from the international nifedipine GITS study: Intervention as a goal in hypertension treatment (INSIGHT) (2001)

Brown, M.J., Palmer, C.R., Castaigne, A., De Leeuw, P.W., Mancia, G., Rosenthal, T., ...

Background We compared the effects of a long-acting calcium-channel blocker with a thiazide-amiloride combination on cardiovascular mortality and morbidity in patients with additional cardiovascular...

Similarities and differences between augmentation index and pulse wave velocity in the assessment of arterial stiffness (1999)

Brown, M.J.

We investigated whether there was a correlation between the simultaneous assessments of augmentation index (AI) and pulse wave velocity (PWV), undertaken by the SphygmoCor system, and what were the...

Stand Structure, Reproductive Activity and Sex Expression in Huon Pine (Lagarostrobos franklinii (Hook L.) Quinn.) (1995)

Shapcott, A, Brown, M J, Kirkpatrick, J B, Reid, J B

The nature and variability of stand structure, reproductive activity and sex expression were investigated in natural populations throughout the geographic and ecological range of Lagarostrobos...

A comparison of the effects of adrenaline and noradrenaline on human heart: the role of {beta}1- and {beta}2-adrenoceptors in the stimulation of adenylate cyclase and contractile force (1989)

Kaumann, A. J., Hall, J. A., Murray, K. J., Wells, F. C., Brown, M. J.

The stimulant effects of adrenaline and noradrenaline on contractile force and adenylate cyclase, mediated through β1- and β2-adrenoceptors, are analysed in isolated atrial and ventricular...

EFFECTS OF TWO DIFFERING HALOTHANE CONCENTRATIONS ON THE METABOLIC AND ENDOCRINE RESPONSES TO SURGERY (1986)

LACOUMENTA, S., PATERSON, J. L., BURRIN, J., CAUSON, R. C., BROWN, M. J., HALL, G. M.

The effects of two differing concentrations of halothane, 2.1 MAC or 1.2 MAC, on the metabolic and endocrine responses to abdominal hysterectomy were investigated. The changes in blood glucose and...

Sipple syndrome: marked variability of the disease within a family and implications for management.

Stevenson, J. C., Hillyard, C. J., Spanos, E., MacIntyre, I., Ackroyd, N., Lynn, J., ...

Familial medullary carcinoma of the thyroid gland is often associated with phaeochromocytoma; this condition is known as Sipple syndrome. The rate of progression of the disease and the degree of...
