Disorders of Adhesions or Adhesion-Related Disorder: Monolithic Entities or Part of Something Bigger—CAPPS? https://www.researchgate.net/publication/23222786_Disorders_of_Adhesions_or_Adhesion-Related_Disorder_Monolithic_Entities_or_Part_of_Something_Bigger-CAPPS Article Full-text available Aug 2008 https://www.researchgate.net/profile/David-Wiseman David M Wiseman The purpose of this article is to review progress in the field of abdominopelvic adhesions and the validity of its two underlying assumptions: (1) The formation of adhesions results in infertility, bowel obstruction, or other complications. Reducing or avoiding adhesions will curb these sequelae. (2) “Adhesions” is a monolithic entity to be tackled... View

The Gemini conundrum — A problem of unpairable data: Statistical comparison of ratios each derived from two separately estimated parameters https://www.researchgate.net/publication/19760672_The_Gemini_conundrum_-_A_problem_of_unpairable_data_Statistical_comparison_of_ratios_each_derived_from_two_separately_estimated_parameters Article Feb 1988 https://www.researchgate.net/profile/David-Wiseman David M Wiseman https://www.researchgate.net/scientific-contributions/ACC-Gibbs-60093003 A.C.C. Gibbs In biological studies it may be necessary to compare ratios of two separately estimated parameters under test and control conditions. Since it is not always possible technically to obtain paired data for the two parameters, how does one take account of their variances? By extending previously described approximations in a modified t-test we present... View

Macrophage-Induced Angiogenesis is Mediated by Tumor Necrosis Factor Alpha https://www.researchgate.net/publication/20711967_Macrophage-Induced_Angiogenesis_is_Mediated_by_Tumor_Necrosis_Factor_Alpha Article Oct 1987 https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Samuel-Leibovich Samuel Joseph Leibovich https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Peter-Polverini Peter Polverini https://www.researchgate.net/profile/H-Michael-Shepard H Michael Shepard [...] https://www.researchgate.net/scientific-contributions/Nureddin-Nuseir-31645119 Nureddin Nuseir Macrophages are important in the induction of new blood vessel growth during wound repair, inflammation and tumour growth. We show here that tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), a secretory product of activated macrophages that is believed to mediate tumour cytotoxicity, is a potent inducer of new blood vessel growth (angiogenesis). In vivo, T... View
