Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis and Structure of Bi14O20(SO4), a New Bismuth Oxide Sulfate.
TL;DR: A new bismuth oxide sulfate of stoichiometry Bi14O20(SO4) was synthesized from thermal treatment of an intimate mixture of α-Bi2O3 and (NH4)2SO4 in the mole ratio 1:0.14 as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Preparation and structure of the Ba-stabilised T* type cuprate LaBa0.2Gd0.8CuO4 and its fluorinated phase
Li Rukang,Colin Greaves +1 more
TL;DR: A single phase material with nominal composition LaBa 0.2 Gd 0.8 CuO 4 was prepared by heating the mixture of as-synthesized LaBa and CuF 2 at 400°C, and a fluorinated phase was obtained as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Remarkable influence of heat treatment on the structural and superconducting properties of (Y1-xSmx)(SrBa)Cu3O6+z
TL;DR: In this article, the authors report on the preparation, effect of heat treatments, X-ray diffraction and AC magnetic susceptibility measurements in the high Tc superconductor (Y1-xSmx)(SrBa)Cu3O6+z (x = 0, 0.2,0.4, 0., 0.5, 0,6, 0; 0.8 and 1).
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of the Norfolk diabetes prevention lifestyle intervention (NDPS) on glycaemic control in screen-detected type 2 diabetes: a randomised controlled trial.
Mike Sampson,Allan Clark,Max O Bachmann,Max O Bachmann,Nikki Garner,Lisa Irvine,Amanda Howe,Amanda Howe,Colin Greaves,Sara Auckland,Jane McKee Smith,Dave Rea,Jeremy Turner,Jeremy Turner,Gerry Rayman,Ketan Dhatariya,W. Garry John,Garry Barton,Rebecca Usher,Clare Ferns,Melanie Pascale +20 more
TL;DR: The NDPS lifestyle intervention significantly improved glycaemic control after 12 months in people with screen-detected Type 2 diabetes when supported by trained peer mentors with type 2 diabetes, particularly those receiving oral hypoglycaemic medication as discussed by the authors.
Journal Article
Creating change that counts: Evidence-led co-creation as a pathway to impact
Charles Abraham,Nicky Britten,Sarah Dean,Colin Greaves,Jennifer J Lloyd,Leon Poltawski,Katrina Wyatt +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors argue that pathways to research impact depend on co-creation combined with methodologically-rigorous trials which examine mechanism, and integrate conceptual frameworks, draw upon a report on Behaviour Change produced by the UK House of Lords and illustrate research practice using ongoing work at ‘PenCLAHRC’ and Exeter Medical School.
