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

Trials, 15, Article 99. https://doi.org/10.1186/1745-6215-15-99BACKGROUND: 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...

Extending the role of peritoneal dialysis: can we win hearts and minds? (2014)
Journal Article
Davies, S., Lally, F., Satchithananda, D., Kadam, U., & Roffe, C. (2014). Extending the role of peritoneal dialysis: can we win hearts and minds?. Nephrology Dialysis Transplantation, 29(9), 1648-1654. https://doi.org/10.1093/ndt/gfu001Background
The ability of peritoneal dialysis (PD) to achieve low-molecular weight solute clearance and ultrafiltration at low haemodynamic cost makes it an attractive therapy in situations where more aggressive therapy may be undesirable due to sud...
