Increased Placental Cell Senescence and Oxidative Stress in Women with Pre-Eclampsia and Normotensive Post-Term Pregnancies (2021)
Journal Article

Up to 11% of pregnancies extend to post-term with adverse obstetric events linked to pregnancies over 42 weeks. Oxidative stress and senescence (cells stop growing and dividing by irreversibly arresting their cell cycle and gradually ageing) can resu...

Direct mechanical thrombectomy without intravenous thrombolysis versus bridging therapy for acute ischemic stroke: A meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (2021)
Journal Article

Background: Direct mechanical thrombectomy may result in similar outcomes compared to a bridging approach with intravenous thrombolysis (IVT + MT) in acute ischemic stroke. Recent randomized controlled trials have varied in their design and noninferi...

The role of the cingulate cortex in the generation of motor tics and the experience of the premonitory urge-to-tic in Tourette syndrome (2021)
Journal Article

Tourette syndrome (TS) is a neurological disorder of childhood onset that is characterized by the occurrence of motor and vocal tics. TS is associated with cortical-striatal-thalamic-cortical circuit [CSTC] dysfunction and hyper-excitability of corti...

Droplet digital PCR-based detection of circulating tumor DNA from pediatric high grade and diffuse midline glioma patients (2021)
Journal Article

Background The use of liquid biopsy is of potential high importance for children with high grade (HGG) and diffuse midline gliomas (DMG), particularly where surgical procedures are limited, and invasive biopsy sampling not without risk. To date, how... Read More about Droplet digital PCR-based detection of circulating tumor DNA from pediatric high grade and diffuse midline glioma patients.

Changes in sound-source localization for children with bilateral severe to profound hearing loss following simultaneous bilateral cochlear implantation (2018)
Journal Article

Background: Sound localization is a valuable skill that children can develop to some extent via bilateral cochlear implants (biCIs). However, little is known regarding the change that can be expected in sound-source localization accuracy (SLA) pre- a...
