A pilot of the feasibility and usefulness of an aged obese model for use in stroke research (2021)
Journal Article
Learoyd, A. E., Calmus, R., Cunningham, C. N., England, T. J., Farr, T. D., Fone, K. C., …Trueman, R. C. (2021). A pilot of the feasibility and usefulness of an aged obese model for use in stroke research. Wellcome Open Research, 6, Article 104. https://doi.org/10.12688/wellcomeopenres.16592.1

Background: Animal models of stroke have been criticised as having poor predictive validity, lacking risk factors prevalent in an aging population. This pilot study examined the development of comorbidities in a combined aged and high-fat diet model,...

Local anaesthesia as a distinct comparator versus conscious sedation and 1 general anaesthesia in endovascular stroke treatment: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Journal of NeuroInterventional Surgery, 14(3), 221-226. https://doi.org/10.1136/neurintsurg-2021-017360

Background: The optimal anesthetic modality for endovascular treatment (EVT) in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is undetermined. Comparisons of general anesthesia (GA) with composite non-GA cohorts of conscious sedation (CS) and local anesthesia (LA) wit...

Protective Effects of Cannabidivarin and Cannabigerol on Cells of the Blood-Brain Barrier Under Ischemic Conditions (2021)
Journal Article
Stone, N. L., England, T. J., & O' Sullivan, S. E. (2021). Protective Effects of Cannabidivarin and Cannabigerol on Cells of the Blood-Brain Barrier Under Ischemic Conditions. Cannabis and Cannabinoid Research, 6(4), 315-326. https://doi.org/10.1089/can.2020.0159

Background and Objectives: Preclinical studies have shown cannabidiol is protective in models of ischemic stroke. Based on results from our recent systematic review, we investigated the effects of two promising neuro-protective phytocannabinoids, can...
