Cardiopulmonary Function and Aerobic Exercise in Parkinson's: A Systematic Review of the Literature (2020)
Journal Article
Aburub, A., Ledger, S. J., Sim, J., & Hunter, S. (2020). Cardiopulmonary Function and Aerobic Exercise in Parkinson's: A Systematic Review of the Literature. Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, 599-606. https://doi.org/10.1002/mdc3.13011

Background Cardiorespiratory impairments are considered the main cause of mortality in the late stages of Parkinson's. Aerobic exercise has been shown to improve pulmonary function in asthmatic patients and in healthy people. However, effects of aer...

Routine low-dose continuous or nocturnal oxygen for people with acute stroke: three-arm Stroke Oxygen Supplementation RCT. (2018)
Journal Article
Bishop, J., Sim, J., Penaloza, C., Jowett, S., Gray, R., Ferdinand, P., …Roffe, C. (2018). Routine low-dose continuous or nocturnal oxygen for people with acute stroke: three-arm Stroke Oxygen Supplementation RCT. Health Technology Assessment, 22(14), 1 - 88. https://doi.org/10.3310/hta22140

BACKGROUND: Stroke is a major cause of death and disability worldwide. Hypoxia is common after stroke and is associated with worse outcomes. Oxygen supplementation could prevent hypoxia and secondary brain damage. OBJECTIVES: (1) To assess whether or...

Effect of Routine Low-Dose Oxygen Supplementation on Death and Disability in Adults With Acute Stroke: The Stroke Oxygen Study Randomized Clinical Trial. (2017)
Journal Article
Sim, J., Bishop, J., Gray, R., and the Stroke Oxygen Study Collaborative Group, S. O. S. I., Roffe, C., Nevatte, T., …Ferdinand, P. (2017). Effect of Routine Low-Dose Oxygen Supplementation on Death and Disability in Adults With Acute Stroke: The Stroke Oxygen Study Randomized Clinical Trial. Journal of the American Medical Association, 318(12), 1125 - 1135. https://doi.org/10.1001/jama.2017.11463

Importance: Hypoxia is common in the first few days after acute stroke, is frequently intermittent, and is often undetected. Oxygen supplementation could prevent hypoxia and secondary neurological deterioration and thus has the potential to improve r...

Statistical analysis plan for the Stroke Oxygen Study (SO2S): a multi-center randomized controlled trial to assess whether routine oxygen supplementation in the first 72 hours after a stroke improves long-term outcome. (2014)
Journal Article
Ives, N., Sim, J., Gray, R., Roffe, C., Nevatte, T., & Howman, A. (2014).

Trials, 15, Article ARTN 229. https://doi.org/10.1186/1745-6215-15-229

BACKGROUND: The Stroke Oxygen Study (SO2S) is a multi-center randomized controlled trial of oxygen supplementation in patients with acute stroke. The main hypothesis for the trial is that fixed-dose oxygen treatment during the first 3 days after an a...

The Stroke Oxygen Study (SO2S) - a multi-center, study to assess whether routine oxygen treatment in the first 72 hours after a stroke improves long-term outcome: study protocol for a randomized controlled trial. Trials, 15, Article 99. https://doi.org/10.1186/1745-6215-15-99

BACKGROUND: Mild hypoxia is common in stroke patients and may have significant adverse effects on the ischemic brain after stroke. The use of oxygen treatment is rapidly increasing in European stroke units but is not without side effects. It impedes...

PloS one, 8(6), Article e59274. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0059274

INTRODUCTION: Post-stroke hypoxia is common, and may adversely affect outcome. We have recently shown that oxygen supplementation may improve early neurological recovery. Here, we report the six-month outcomes of this pilot study. METHODS: Patients w...
