Effect of nitric oxide donors on blood pressure and pulse pressure in acute and subacute stroke (2006)
Journal Article
Gray, L. J., Sprigg, N., Rashid, P., Willmot, M., & Bath, P. M. (2006). Effect of nitric oxide donors on blood pressure and pulse pressure in acute and subacute stroke. Journal of Stroke and Cerebrovascular Diseases, 15(6),

High blood pressure (BP), pulse pressure (PP), and rate pressure product (RPP) areeach associated independently with a poor outcome in acute ischemic stroke. Whereas nitric oxide (NO) donors, such as glyceryl trinitrate (GTN), lower blood pressure i...

Compression stockings and the prevention of symptomatic venous thromboembolism: data from the Tinzaparin in Acute Ischaemic Stroke Trial (2005)
Journal Article
Sprigg, N., Gray, L. J., Bath, P. M., Boysen, G., de Deyn, P. P., Leys, D., …van der Sande, J. J. (2005). Compression stockings and the prevention of symptomatic venous thromboembolism: data from the Tinzaparin in Acute Ischaemic Stroke Trial. Journal of Stroke and Cerebrovascular Diseases, 14(5),

Background: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a well recognised and preventable complication of acute stroke. While graduated compression stockings reduce the risk of VTE in surgical patients their benefit in acute stroke remains uncertain. Methods: T...

A systematic review of nitric oxide donors and L-arginine in experimental stroke: effects on infarct size and cerebral blood flow (2005)
Journal Article
Willmot, M., Gray, L. J., Gibson, C. L., Murphy, S., & Bath, P. M. (2005). A systematic review of nitric oxide donors and L-arginine in experimental stroke: effects on infarct size and cerebral blood flow. Nitric Oxide: Biology and Chemistry, 12(3),

Background: Nitric oxide (NO) is a candidate treatment for acute ischaemic stroke, however published studies in experimental stroke have given conflicting results. Methods: We performed a systematic review of published controlled studies of L-arginin...
