Aims and objectives
To investigate the effectiveness and acceptability of interventions for maintaining nasogastric tubes (NGT) in adult stroke patients.
Background
Internationally, incidence of Cerebral Vascular Disease (CVD) continues to increas... Read More about Interventions for maintaining nasogastric feeding after stroke: An integrative review of effectiveness and acceptability.

Preferential activation of HIF-2 adaptive mechanisms in neuronal-like cells in response to hypoxia (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Fraser, J., Baudel, M., Rae, M., Darlison, M., & Poole, A. (2017, April). Preferential activation of HIF-2 adaptive mechanisms in neuronal-like cells in response to hypoxia. Poster presented at British Neuroscience Association - festival of neuroscience 2017

Stroke is a leading cause of death and disability worldwide. Blockage, or occlusion, of cerebral arteries causes irreversible neuronal damage as disrupted blood flow starves neurones of oxygen and glucose. The hypoxia inducible factors (HIFs) are mas...

The expression of the chloride co-transporters NKCC1 and KCC2 is reversed in the penumbra following (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Baudel, M., Rae, M., Fraser, J., & Poole, A. (2017, April). The expression of the chloride co-transporters NKCC1 and KCC2 is reversed in the penumbra following. Presented at BNA 2017

Stroke is one of the major causes of death and disability worldwide. The harm caused by the interruption of blood flow to the brain unfolds in the subsequent hours and days, so it is critical to identify new therapeutic targets that could reduce neur...
