Journal Article

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...
