Desmopressin for patients with spontaneous intracerebral haemorrhage taking antiplatelet drugs (DASH): a UK-based, phase 2, randomised, placebo-controlled, multicentre feasibility trial (2023)
Journal Article

Background: The risk of death from spontaneous intracerebral haemorrhage is increased for people taking antiplatelet drugs. We aimed to assess the feasibility of randomising patients on antiplatelet drug therapy with spontaneous intracerebral haemorr...

Effects of blood pressure and tranexamic acid in spontaneous intracerebral haemorrhage: A secondary analysis of a large randomised controlled trial (2023)
Journal Article

Background Tranexamic acid reduced haematoma expansion and early death, but did not improve functional outcome in the tranexamic acid for hyperacute spontaneous intracerebral haemorrhage-2 (TICH-2) trial. In a predefined subgroup, there was a statist...

Development of cancer surveillance guidelines in ataxia telangiectasia: A Delphi‐based consensus survey of international experts (2023)
Journal Article

Background/Objectives: Ataxia telangiectasia (A‐T) is a multiorgan disorder with increased vulnerability to cancer. Despite this increased cancer risk, there are no widely accepted guidelines for cancer surveillance in people affected by A‐T. We aime...

Endovascular Thrombectomy Versus Best Medical Management Beyond 24 Hours From Last Known Well in Acute Ischemic Stroke Due to Large Vessel Occlusion (2023)
Journal Article

BACKGROUND The safety and efficacy of endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) in patients with acute ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion presenting beyond 24 hours from last known well (LKW) remains undetermined. METHODS In this single center... Read More about Endovascular Thrombectomy Versus Best Medical Management Beyond 24 Hours From Last Known Well in Acute Ischemic Stroke Due to Large Vessel Occlusion.

Effect of proximal blood flow arrest during endovascular thrombectomy (ProFATE): Study protocol for a multicentre randomised controlled trial (2023)
Journal Article

Background: Observational studies have demonstrated improved outcomes with the adjunctive use of balloon guide catheters (BGC) during endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) for anterior circulation acute ischaemic stroke (AIS). However, the lack of high-lev... Read More about Effect of proximal blood flow arrest during endovascular thrombectomy (ProFATE): Study protocol for a multicentre randomised controlled trial.

Whole-body MRI for cancer surveillance in ataxia–telangiectasia: A qualitative study of the perspectives of people affected by A-T and their families (2023)
Journal Article

Background/Objectives: Ataxia–telangiectasia (A-T) is a complex inherited disease associated with an increased risk of malignancy. Surveillance guidelines have demonstrated significant health benefits in other cancer predisposition syndromes. However...

Incidence and predictors of poor functional outcome despite complete recanalisation following endovascular thrombectomy for acute ischaemic stroke (2023)
Journal Article

Background: Numerous ischaemic stroke patients experience poor functional outcome despite successful recanalisation following endovascular thrombectomy (EVT). We aimed to identify the incidence and predictors of futile complete recanalisation (FCR) i... Read More about Incidence and predictors of poor functional outcome despite complete recanalisation following endovascular thrombectomy for acute ischaemic stroke.

Perfusion Imaging for Endovascular Thrombectomy in Acute Ischemic Stroke Is Associated With Improved Functional Outcomes in the Early and Late Time Windows (2022)
Journal Article

Background: The impact on clinical outcomes of patient selection using perfusion imaging for endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) in patients with acute ischemic stroke presenting beyond 6 hours from onset remains undetermined in routine clinical practice...

Association between anesthesia modality and clinical outcomes following endovascular stroke treatment in the extended time window (2022)
Journal Article

Background: There is a paucity of data on anesthesia-related outcomes for endovascular treatment (EVT) in the extended window (>6 hours from ischemic stroke onset). We compared functional and safety outcomes between local anesthesia (LA) without seda...
