Attenuation of Congenital Portosystemic Shunt Reduces Inflammation in Dogs (2015)
Journal Article
Tivers, M. S., Handel, I., Gow, A. G., Lipscomb, V. J., Jalan, R., & Mellanby, R. J. (2015). Attenuation of Congenital Portosystemic Shunt Reduces Inflammation in Dogs. PLoS ONE, 10(2), https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0117557

Liver disease is a major cause of morbidity and mortality. One of the most significant complications in patients with liver disease is the development of neurological disturbances, termed hepatic encephalopathy. The pathogenesis of hepatic encephalop...

Is a standalone inertial measurement unit accurate and precise enough for quantification of movement symmetry in the horse? (2015)
Journal Article
Brighton, C., Olsen, E., & Pfau, T. (2015). Is a standalone inertial measurement unit accurate and precise enough for quantification of movement symmetry in the horse?. Computer Methods in Biomechanics and Biomedical Engineering, 18(5), 527-532. https://doi.org/10.1080/10255842.2013.819857

Standalone ‘low-cost’ inertial measurement units (IMUs) could facilitate large-scale studies into establishing minimal important differences (MID) for orthopaedic deficits (lameness) in horses. We investigated accuracy and limits of agreement (LoA) a...

Vaccination with a live multi-gene deletion strain protects horses against virulent challenge with Streptococcus equi (2015)
Journal Article
Robinson, C., Heather, Z., Slater, J. D., Potts, N., Steward, K. F., Maskell, D. J., …Waller, A. S. (2015). Vaccination with a live multi-gene deletion strain protects horses against virulent challenge with Streptococcus equi. Vaccine, 33(9), 1160-1167. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.vaccine.2015.01.019

Strangles, caused by Streptococcus equi subspecies equi (S. equi) is one of the most frequently diagnosed infectious diseases of horses and there remains a significant need to develop new preventative vaccines. We generated a live vaccine strain of S... Read More about Vaccination with a live multi-gene deletion strain protects horses against virulent challenge with Streptococcus equi.

Career identity in the veterinary profession (2015)
Journal Article
Page-Jones, S., & Abbey, G. (2015). Career identity in the veterinary profession. Veterinary Record, 176(17), 433. https://doi.org/10.1136/vr.102784

This research investigates vet and vet nurse career identity through the qualitative methodology of narrative enquiry. It derives learning and understanding from these empirical data to assist the veterinary profession to adjust to the changing indus... Read More about Career identity in the veterinary profession.
