Hypoxia after stroke: a review of experimental and clinical evidence (2016)
Journal Article
Ferdinand, P., & Roffe, C. (2016). Hypoxia after stroke: a review of experimental and clinical evidence. Experimental and Translational Stroke Medicine, 8, Article 9. https://doi.org/10.1186/s13231-016-0023-0

Background Hypoxia is a common occurrence following stroke and associated with poor clinical and functional outcomes. Normal oxygen physiology is a finely controlled mechanism from the oxygenation of haemoglobin in the pulmonary capillaries to its d...

Validation and Recalibration of Two Multivariable Prognostic Models for Survival and Independence in Acute Stroke (2016)
Journal Article
Sim, J., Teece, L., Dennis, M. S., & Roffe, C. (2016). Validation and Recalibration of Two Multivariable Prognostic Models for Survival and Independence in Acute Stroke. PloS one, 11(5), Article ARTN e0153527. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0153527

Introduction Various prognostic models have been developed for acute stroke, including one based on age and five binary variables (‘six simple variables’ model; SSVMod) and one based on age plus scores on the National Institutes of Health Stroke Sca...

Early Diagnosis of Pneumonia in Severe Stroke: Clinical Features and the Diagnostic Role of C-Reactive Protein (2016)
Journal Article
Warusevitane, A., Karunatilake, D., Sim, J., Smith, C., & Roffe, C. (2016). Early Diagnosis of Pneumonia in Severe Stroke: Clinical Features and the Diagnostic Role of C-Reactive Protein. PloS one, 0150269-?. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0150269

Background Accurate diagnosis of pneumonia complicating severe stroke is challenging due to difficulties in physical examination, altered immune responses and delayed manifestations of radiological changes. The aims of this study were to describe ea... Read More about Early Diagnosis of Pneumonia in Severe Stroke: Clinical Features and the Diagnostic Role of C-Reactive Protein.
