The prevalence of alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency in Ireland
(2011)Background: Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) results from mutations in the SERPINA1 gene and classically presents with early-onset emphysema and liver disease. The most common mutation presenting with clinical evidence ... -
The Primary Classroom: Insights from the 'Growing Up in Ireland' Study
(NCCA and ESRI, 2012) -
Printing New Bones: From Print-and-Implant Devices to Bioprinted Bone Organ Precursors
(2021)Regenerating large bone defects remains a significant clinical challenge, motivating increased interest in additive manufacturing and 3D bioprinting to engineer superior bone graft substitutes. 3D bioprinting enables ... -
Priorities in process algebras.
(IEEE Computer Society, 1988)An operational semantics for an algebraic theory of concurrency is developed that incorporates a notion of priority into the definition of the execution of actions. An equivalence based on strong observational equivalences ... -
Process Behaviour: Formulae vs. Tests
(2010)Process behaviour is often defined either in terms of the tests they satisfy, or in terms of the logical properties they enjoy. Here we compare these two approaches, using extensional testing in the style of DeNicola, ... -
Processing and characterisation of Mo6S2I8 nanowires
(2010)One-dimensional nanostructures based on the Mo?S?I system have recently aroused a lot of interest as a viable alternative to the ubiquitous carbon nanotube due to their uniform structure and electronic properties for a ... -
Professional Reputation and Identity in the Online World
(2013)The interface between new entrants to professional disciplines, professional reputation management and social media usage is an under-researched and little understood phenomenon. A small-scale study on social media usage ... -
Profile of Community-Dwelling Older People with a Disability and their Caregivers in Ireland

Prominent careers and Irish screen policy
(2022)Drawing on recent empirical research, we examine career construction among prominent Irish film and television drama workers. Our emphasis is on gender; state patronage; the role of networks; and the necessity to supplement ... -
Promoting universal financial protection: contracting faith-based health facilities to expand access - lessons learned from Malawi.
(2013)Background Public-private collaborations are increasingly being utilized to universalize health care. In Malawi, the Ministry of Health contracts selected health facilities owned by the main faith-based provider, the ... -
Promotion of a cancer-like phenotype, through chronic exposure to inflammatory cytokines and hypoxia in a bronchial epithelial cell line model.
(2016)Globally, lung cancer accounts for approximately 20% of all cancer related deaths. Five-year survival is poor and rates have remained unchanged for the past four decades. There is an urgent need to identify markers of lung ... -
Proof methodologies for behavioural equivalence in DPI
(Springer, 2005)We focus on techniques for proving behavioural equivalence between systems in Dpi, a distributed version of the picalculus in which processes may migrate between dynamically created locations, and where resource access ... -
Propofol allows precise quantitative arterial spin labelling functional magnetic resonance imaging in the rat
(2010)Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) techniques highlight cerebral vascular responses which are coupled to changes in neural activation. However, two major difficulties arise when employing these techniques in ... -
A prospective study of circulating mutant KRAS2 in the serum of patients with colorectal neoplasia: strong prognostic indicator in postoperative follow up
(2003)BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Mutant tumour derived DNA has been detected in the sera of colorectal cancer patients. We investigated if mutant serum KRAS2 was detectable preoperatively in a large group of patients with colorectal ... -
Protein kinase C isoform expression in CD45RA+ and CD45RO+ T lymphocytes
(Blackwell, 1995)Differences in levels of specific enzymes utilized in intracellular signalling could be a factor in the distinct signalling properties observed in memory and naive T cells. We have studied the expression of both classical ... -
Protein kinase C isotypes theta, delta and eta in human lymphocytes: differential responses to signalling through the T-cell receptor and phorbol esters
(1997)The repertoire of novel and atypical protein kinase C (PKC) isotypes present in human T cells and their subcellular localization have not been fully characterized. We detected calcium-independent PKC activity in whole cell ... -
A protocol for a randomised clinical trial of the effect of providing feedback on inhaler technique and adherence from an electronic device in patients with poorly controlled severe asthma.
(2016)Introduction In clinical practice, it is difficult to distinguish between patients with refractory asthma from those with poorly controlled asthma, where symptoms persist due to poor adherence, inadequate inhaler technique ... -
Providing researchers with the skills and competencies they need to practise Open Science: Open Science Skills Working Group Report
(European Commission DG-RTG, 2017)Open Science is transformative to the research landscape, allowing research to be carried out with a high degree of transparency, collegiality, and research integrity. For Open Science to become a reality researcher need ... -

Pushing up the magnetisation values for iron oxide nanoparticles: Via zinc doping: X-ray studies on the particle's sub-nano structure of different synthesis routes
(2016)The maximum magnetisation (saturation magnetisation) obtainable for iron oxide nanoparticles can be increased by doping the nanocrystals with non-magnetic elements such as zinc. Herein, we closely study how only slightly ...
