How a thrombectomy service can reduce hospital deficit: a cost-effectiveness study (2022)
Journal Article
Background: There is level 1 evidence for cerebral thrombectomy with thrombolysis in acute large vessel occlusion. Many hospitals are now contemplating setting up this life-saving service. For the hospital, however, the first treatment is associated... Read More about How a thrombectomy service can reduce hospital deficit: a cost-effectiveness study.
Incidence and prevalence of venous thromboembolism in chronic liver disease: A systematic review and meta-analysis (2022)
Journal Article
Background and Aims: Historically, bleeding was thought to be a frequent and fatal complication of liver disease. However, thrombosis due to coagulation disorders in cirrhosis remains a real risk. We aim to systematically analyse published articles t... Read More about Incidence and prevalence of venous thromboembolism in chronic liver disease: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
The natural history of ataxia-telangiectasia (A-T): A systematic review (2022)
Journal Article
Background: Ataxia-telangiectasia is an autosomal recessive, multi-system, and life-shortening disease caused by mutations in the ataxia-telangiectasia mutated gene. Although widely reported, there are no studies that give a comprehensive picture of... Read More about The natural history of ataxia-telangiectasia (A-T): A systematic review.
Overview of Noninterpretive Artificial Intelligence Models for Safety, Quality, Workflow, and Education Applications in Radiology Practice (2022)
Journal Article
Artificial intelligence has become a ubiquitous term in radiology over the past several years, and much attention has been given to applications that aid radiologists in the detection of abnormalities and diagnosis of diseases. However, there are man... Read More about Overview of Noninterpretive Artificial Intelligence Models for Safety, Quality, Workflow, and Education Applications in Radiology Practice.
Quantifiable correlation of ToF-SIMS and XPS data from polymer surfaces with controlled amino acid and peptide content (2022)
Journal Article
Peptide-coated surfaces are widely employed in biomaterial design, but quantifiable correlation between surface composition and biological response is challenging due to, for example, instrumental limitations, a lack of suitable model surfaces or lim... Read More about Quantifiable correlation of ToF-SIMS and XPS data from polymer surfaces with controlled amino acid and peptide content.
“I don’t want to take buprenorphine for the rest of my life”: Acceptance and Commitment Therapy for a Client Struggling to Reduce Low-Dose Buprenorphine (a Hermeneutic Single-Case Efficacy Design) (2021)
Journal Article
The misuse of substances is often maintained by both physical and psychological factors. Opioid-substitution medications manage physical aspects of addiction; however, difficulties with emotional regulation and avoidance perpetuate continued substanc...

Sox-positive cell population in the adult cerebellum increases upon tissue degeneration (2021)
Journal Article
Adult neurogenesis is well-described in the subventricular and subgranular zones of the mammalian brain. Recent observations that resident glia express stem cell markers in some areas of the brain not traditionally associated with neurogenesis hint t... Read More about Sox-positive cell population in the adult cerebellum increases upon tissue degeneration.
Diagnostic Armamentarium of Infectious Keratitis: A Comprehensive Review (2021)
Journal Article
Infectious keratitis (IK) represents the leading cause of corneal blindness worldwide, particularly in developing countries. A good outcome of IK is contingent upon timely and accurate diagnosis followed by appropriate interventions. Currently, IK is...

Ticagrelor versus Clopidogrel in CYP2C19 Loss-of-Function Carriers with Stroke or TIA (2021)
Journal Article
BACKGROUND Comparisons between ticagrelor and clopidogrel for the secondary prevention of stroke in CYP2C19 loss-of-function carriers have not been extensively performed. METHODS We conducted a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial at 20... Read More about Ticagrelor versus Clopidogrel in CYP2C19 Loss-of-Function Carriers with Stroke or TIA.
Guillain–Barré Syndrome Variant Occurring after SARS-CoV-2 Vaccination (2021)
Journal Article
Although SARS-CoV-2 vaccines are very safe, we report 4 cases of the bifacial weakness with paresthesias variant of Guillain–Barré syndrome (GBS) occurring within 3 weeks of vaccination with the Oxford–AstraZeneca SARS-CoV-2 vaccine. This rare neurol... Read More about Guillain–Barré Syndrome Variant Occurring after SARS-CoV-2 Vaccination.
European Society for Paediatric Oncology (SIOPE) MRI guidelines for imaging patients with central nervous system tumours (2021)

A low exhaled nitric oxide level excludes a short-term benefit from inhaled corticosteroids in suspected asthma: A randomized placebo-controlled trial (2021)
Journal Article
Background and objective: Fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) is a non-invasive biomarker that reflects IL-4/IL-13 production and therefore represents T2 allergic inflammation. FeNO has previously been used to guide inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) tr...
