Blood markers in remote ischaemic conditioning for acute ischaemic stroke: data from the REmote ischaemic Conditioning After Stroke Trial (2020)
Journal Article
Appleton, J. P., O'Sullivan, S. E., Hedstrom, A., May, J. A., Donnelly, R., Sprigg, N., …England, T. J. (2021). Blood markers in remote ischaemic conditioning for acute ischaemic stroke: data from the REmote ischaemic Conditioning After Stroke Trial. European Journal of Neurology, 28(4), 1225-1233. https://doi.org/10.1111/ene.14650

Background and purpose: Remote ischaemic per-conditioning (RIC) is neuroprotective in experimental ischaemic stroke. Several neurohumoral, vascular and inflammatory mediators are implicated. The effect of RIC on plasma biomarkers was assessed using c...

Psychometric assessment and validation of the dysphagia severity rating scale in stroke patients (2020)
Journal Article
Everton, L. F., Benfield, J. K., Hedstrom, A., Wilkinson, G., Michou, E., England, T. J., …Hamdy, S. (2020). Psychometric assessment and validation of the dysphagia severity rating scale in stroke patients. Scientific Reports, 10, Article 7268. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-020-64208-9

Post stroke dysphagia (PSD) is common and associated with poor outcome. The Dysphagia Severity Rating Scale (DSRS), which grades how severe dysphagia is based on fluid and diet modification and supervision requirements for feeding, is used for clinic...

Journal Article
England, T. J., Hedstrom, A., O'Sullivan, S., Donnelly, R., Barrett, D. A., Sarmad, S., …Bath, P. M. (2017). Remote Ischaemic Conditioning after Stroke Trial (RECAST): a pilot randomised placebo controlled phase II trial in acute ischaemic stroke (ISRCTN 86672015). Stroke, 48(5), https://doi.org/10.1161/STROKEAHA.116.016429

Background: Repeated episodes of limb ischaemia and reperfusion (remote ischaemic conditioning, RIC) may improve outcome after acute stroke. Methods: We performed a pilot blinded placebo-controlled trial in patients with acute ischaemic stroke, ra...
