Cannabinoids in experimental stroke: a systematic review and meta-analysis (2014)
Journal Article
England, T. J., Hind, W. H., Rasid, N. A., & O'Sullivan, S. (2015). Cannabinoids in experimental stroke: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Journal of Cerebral Blood Flow and Metabolism, 35(3), https://doi.org/10.1038/jcbfm.2014.218

Cannabinoids (CBs) show promise as neuroprotectants with some agents already licensed in humans for other conditions. We systematically reviewed CBs in preclinical stroke to guide further experimental protocols. We selected controlled studies assessi...

Remote conditioning or erythropoietin before surgery primes kidneys to clear ischemia-reperfusion-damaged cells: a renoprotective mechanism? (2014)
Journal Article
Gardner, D. S., Welham, S. J., Dunford, L. J., McCulloch, T. A., Hodi, Z., Sleeman, P., …Devonald, M. A. (2014). Remote conditioning or erythropoietin before surgery primes kidneys to clear ischemia-reperfusion-damaged cells: a renoprotective mechanism?.

Acute kidney injury is common, serious with no specific treatment. Ischemia-reperfusion is a common cause of acute kidney injury (AKI). Clinical trials suggest that preoperative erythropoietin (EPO) or remote ischemic preconditioning may have a renop...
