Amphetamine increases blood pressure and heart rate but has no effect on motor recovery or cerebral haemodynamics in ischaemic stroke: a randomized controlled trial (ISRCTN 36285333) (2007)
Journal Article

Amphetamine enhances recovery after experimental ischaemia and has shown promise in small clinical trials when combined with motor or sensory stimulation. Amphetamine, a sympathomimetic, might have haemodynamic effects in stroke patients, although li...

Granulocyte-colony-stimulating factor mobilizes bone marrow stem cells in patients with subacute ischemic stroke: the Stem Cell Trial of Recovery EnhanceMent After Stroke (STEMS) Pilot Randomized, Controlled Trial (ISRCTN 16784092) (2006)
Journal Article

Background and Purpose - Loss of motor function is common after stroke and leads to significant chronic disability. Stem cells are capable of self-renewal and of differentiating into multiple cell types, including neurones, glia, and vascular cells....

Effect of nitric oxide donors on blood pressure and pulse pressure in acute and subacute stroke (2006)
Journal Article

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...

Clinical outcome after first and recurrent hemorrhage in patients with untreated brain arteriovenous malformation (2006)
Journal Article

Background and Purpose: The morbidity from spontaneous hemorrhage of untreated brain arteriovenous malformations (AVM) is not well described. Methods: The 241 consecutive AVM patients (mean age 3716 years, 52% women) from the prospective Columbia...

Compression stockings and the prevention of symptomatic venous thromboembolism: data from the Tinzaparin in Acute Ischaemic Stroke Trial (2005)
Journal Article

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...

Nitric oxide synthase inhibitors in experimental stroke and their effects on infarct size and cerebral blood flow: a systematic review (2005)
Journal Article

A systematic review of nitric oxide donors and L-arginine in experimental stroke: effects on infarct size and cerebral blood flow (2005)
Journal Article

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...

Vitamins Reverse Endothelial Dysfunction Through Regulation of eNOS and NAD(P)H Oxidase Activities (2003)
Journal Article

Antioxidant vitamins C and E have protective properties in genetic hypertension associated with enhanced oxidative stress. This study investigated whether vitamins C and/or E modulate vascular function by regulating enzymatic activities of endothel...

Two-dimensional NMR of velocity exchange: VEXSY and SERPENT (2001)
Journal Article

Two different multidimensional pulsed field gradient sequences are compared which have the purpose of correlating spin displacements in different time intervals with each other. The simplest possible sequence, three-pulse SERPENT, measures displaceme... Read More about Two-dimensional NMR of velocity exchange: VEXSY and SERPENT.

Pore-scale network modelling of flow propagators derived from pulsed magnetic field gradient spin echo NMR measurements in porous media (2000)
Journal Article

Pulsed magnetic field gradient spin echo (PGSE) NMR experiments carried out on porous media where fluid flow is occurring, may be analyzed to give the propagator, P(ξ,t), This quantity is the ensemble density distribution of particle (nuclei) displac...

Time Correlations in Fluid Transport Obtained by Sequential Rephasing Gradient Pulses (1999)
Journal Article

We present a basic experiment by which the evolution of the displacement probability density (propagator) of static or flowing fluid in N successive time intervals is obtained by single labeling, coupled with multiple rephasing events during the cour...

The characterisation of fluid transport in porous solids by means of pulsed magnetic field gradient NMR (1998)
Journal Article

The determination, by pulsed field gradient (PFG) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), of the probability distributions (propagators) of displacements for fluids undergoing transport by both flow and self- diffusion within porous solids is outlined. The... Read More about The characterisation of fluid transport in porous solids by means of pulsed magnetic field gradient NMR.

Predictions for pulsed-field-gradient NMR experiments of diffusion in fractal spaces (1997)
Journal Article

In this paper, theoretical predictions are made for pulsed-field-gradient NMR experiments of diffusion in fractal spaces. We obtain the general q-space behaviour of the NMR signal, which upon Fourier transformation, delivers the probability density f...

Magnetic resonance imaging of peripheral vascular disease and muscle atrophy in diabetes (1994)
Journal Article

Knowledge of the state of tissue hydration in patients suffering from peripheral vascular disease and neuropathy as a result of diabetes is important in their treatment. Further, because magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is uniquely able to generate i... Read More about Magnetic resonance imaging of peripheral vascular disease and muscle atrophy in diabetes.

Water diffusion coefficient measurements in the finger by magnetic resonance imaging (1994)
Journal Article

Diffusion coefficients of water have been measured in the fingers of humans by magnetic resonance imaging.
