Journal ArticleDOI
Development of a critical appraisal tool to assess the quality of cross-sectional studies (AXIS)
TL;DR: The AXIS tool was developed in a way that it can be used across disciplines to aid the inclusion of CSSs in systematic reviews, guidelines and clinical decision-making in a number of different disciplines.
Role of Androgen Receptor and AssociatedLysine-Demethylase Coregulators, LSD1 andJMJD2A, in Localized and Advanced HumanBladder Cancer
Eric C. Kauffman,Brian D. Robinson,Martin Downes,Leagh G. Powell,Ming Ming Lee,Douglas S. Scherr,Lorraine J. Gudas,Nigel P. Mongan +7 more
TL;DR: A novel role for the AR–KDM complex in bladder cancer initiation and progression is supported, JMJD2A is identified as a promising prognostic biomarker, and targeting of the KDM activity as an effective potential approach for bladder cancer growth inhibition is demonstrated.

Role of androgen receptor and associated lysine-demethylase coregulators, LSD1 and JMJD2A, in localized and advanced human bladder cancer
Eric Kauffman,Brian D. Robinson,Martin Downes,Martin Downes,Leagh G. Powell,Ming Ming Lee,Douglas S. Scherr,Lorraine J. Gudas,Nigel P. Mongan,Nigel P. Mongan +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of pharmacological inhibition of LSD1 on the proliferation of these bladder cancer cells was determined, and the results support a novel role for the AR-KDM complex in bladder cancer initiation and progression, identify JMJD2A as a promising prognostic biomarker, and demonstrate targeting of the KDM activity as an effective potential approach for bladder cancer growth inhibition.
Journal ArticleDOI
Telephone consultations for general practice: a systematic review
TL;DR: There is a lack of high level evidence for telephone consultations in a GP setting; however, current evidence suggests that telephone consultations as an alternative to face-to-face general practice consultations offers an appropriate option in certain settings.
Journal Article
Expression of VEGF and its receptors VEGFR1/VEGFR2 is Associated with Invasiveness of Bladder Cancer
Pradeep Kumar Kopparapu,Stephen A. Boorjian,Brian D. Robinson,Martin Downes,Lorraine J. Gudas,Nigel P. Mongan,Jenny L. Persson +6 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that alterations in the expression of VEGF and VEGFR2 receptors are associated with disease stage and recurrence.
