Serum amyloid protein is associated with outcome following acute ischaemic stroke: data from the REmote ischaemic Conditioning After Stroke Trial (RECAST) (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Appleton, J. P., Hedstrom, A., O'Sullivan, S., May, J., Sprigg, N., Bath, P. M., & England, T. J. (2018, May). Serum amyloid protein is associated with outcome following acute ischaemic stroke: data from the REmote ischaemic Conditioning After Stroke Trial (RECAST). Presented at 4th European Stroke Organisation Conference ​(ESOC 2018)

Background:
Remote ischaemic per-conditioning (RIC) in experimental ischaemic stroke is neuroprotective. Several neurohumoral, vascular and inflammatory mediators are implicated.
Methods:
The REmote ischaemic Conditioning After Stroke Trial (RECAS... Read More about Serum amyloid protein is associated with outcome following acute ischaemic stroke: data from the REmote ischaemic Conditioning After Stroke Trial (RECAST).

Rapid intervention with glyceryl trinitrate in hypertensive stroke trial-2(right-2): safety and efficacy of transdermal glyceryl trinitrate, a nitric oxide donor (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Dixon, M., Appleton, J., Scutt, P., England, T., Havard, D., Howard, H., Jarvis, M., Montgomery, A., Pocock, S., Potter, J., Price, C., Robinson, T., Roffe, C., Siriwardena, A., Sprigg, N., Wardlaw, J., & Bath, P. Rapid intervention with glyceryl trinitrate in hypertensive stroke trial-2(right-2): safety and efficacy of transdermal glyceryl trinitrate, a nitric oxide donor. Presented at International Stroke Conference 2018

Rationale High blood pressure (BP) is common in acute stroke and is associated with poor outcome. Previous hospital-based trials testing the effects of BP lowering on functional outcome have been inconclusive. The PIL-FAST and RIGHT pilot trials conf...
