The role of substance P in experimental intracerebral haemorrhage.
… SP plays a similarly deleterious role following intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH). We further hypothesised that the post-ICH effects of intracerebral thrombin (which is known to play a major role in post-ICH secondary injury) are at least partly SP-mediated. Thrombin, similarly to SP, is known to …

Blood pressure variability and the characteristics and outcomes of patients with intracerebral haemorrhage
… strongest modifiable risk factor for spontaneous intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH). International guidelines about the management of high BP for primary prevention of cardiovascular disease and secondary prevention after stroke refer to mean or 'usual' BP targets for office BP monitoring (long-term …

Multi-modality imaging assessment of cerebral small vessel disease biomarkers after stroke due to spontaneous intracerebral haemorrhage
In most cases, spontaneous intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) is thought to result from cerebral small vessel diseases (SVDs). Cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) and arteriolosclerosis (non-CAA SVD) are the two main types of SVD associated with ICH. The risk of recurrent ICH and post-stroke dementia …

The Long Term (Five Year) Neuropsychological and Functional Outcomes of Primary Intracerebral Haemorrhage. A Population Based Study.
… and functional outcomes of primary intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) using a population-based sample. The World Health Organisation‟s model of health outcomes; the International Classification of Functioning (ICF), was used to identify areas for consideration in characterising …

The Neuropsychological and Functional Outcomes of Primary Intracerebral Haemorrhage (ICH) at 6 and 12 Month Follow Up: A Population-Based Study
… mood, cognitive, and functional outcomes of Intracerebral Haemorrhage (ICH). Previous research has tended to use hospital-based samples; examine stroke outcomes generally rather than specific to stroke subtype; assess outcomes only in the acute phase post-stroke; and favour functional …

The Epidemiology of Intracerebral Haemorrahge. Risk factors and prognosis
… The present thesis explored the epidemiology of intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH), i.e., factors associated to incidence and prognosis. In the population of Malmö (Malmö 1990 cohort), it was shown that immigrants from China/Vietnam and the Former Soviet Union had higher risk of ICH than citizens …

Unravelling the Genetics of Cerebral Small Vessel Disease
… variants can cause small vessel stroke and intracerebral haemorrhage. This thesis investigates the genetics of CSVD in the context of monogenic conditions using data from three cohorts. Firstly, I correlate NOTCH3 mutations with disease severity in a cohort of 485 patients with CADASIL. …

Characterising the role of substance P in acute ischaemic stroke.
… improved, as well as a reduction in the risk of intracerebral haemorrhage and death. Furthermore, the NK₁ receptor antagonist was effective even when administered up to 8 h following the onset of ischaemia, and in a variety of stroke severities. We conclude that SP plays a central role in the …

An analysis of the CT and CT angiogram findings of methamphetamine induced stroke in young adults (≤45 years) presenting to GSH Emergency department
… infarct was found significantly more often than intracerebral haemorrhage. This study demonstrated that MCA territories were most frequently involved with occlusion of the M1 segments bilaterally. Radiologically loss of grey-white matter interface and a wedge-shaped appearance are the predominant …

Epidemiology of stroke in an urban population - aspects of time, place and person
… and China or Vietnam had an increased risk of intracerebral haemorrhage, and people born in Finland had an increased risk of subarachnoid haemorrhage. People born in Rumania had lower risk than those born in Sweden. Previous studies from the city have shown that incidence of stroke show …

Epidemiology of stroke and its subtypes in Chinese populations
… ratios (ORs) using a random effects model for intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) versus IS, for each IS subtype versus other subtypes, and for overall IS patients, comparing findings for Chinese versus Whites. In addition, I conducted individual patient analyses of data from the National Taiwan …

Modelling of risk factors, case-fatalities, survival and functional health status for stroke in Kelantan, Malaysia
… types of stroke: a) ischaemic stroke, b) primary intracerebral haemorrhage, c) subarachnoid haemorrhage and d) undetermined stroke (no computed tomography [CT], magnetic resonance imaging [MRI], autopsy or cerebral angiography). The risk factors and fatalities for stroke vary worldwide and stroke …

The Virtual International Stroke Trials Archive (VISTA): promulgation of a clinial trial resource
… the natural history of complications after intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH). Treatments available for ICH remain limited. The use of haemostatic agents to promote local coagulation has had no significant benefit on outcome. However promising results from a subgroup analysis of patients from …
