(2020)
      Comprehensive stroke care is an interdisciplinary challenge. Close collaboration of cardiologists and stroke physicians is critical to ensure optimum utilisation of short- and long-term care and preventive measures in ...
    • A comparative analysis of ambulatory BP profile and arterial stiffness between CAPD and APD 

      Vaios V., Georgianos P.I., Vareta G., Dounousi E., Eleftheriadis T., Papagianni A., Zebekakis P.E., Liakopoulos V. (2022)
      Prior studies have associated automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) with less effective volume and blood pressure (BP) control as compared with continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). Our study aimed to compare the ...
    • Determinants of cognitive performance and decline in 20 diverse ethno-regional groups: A COSMIC collaboration cohort study 

      Lipnicki D.M., Makkar S.R., Crawford J.D., Thalamuthu A., Kochan N.A., Lima-Costa M.F., Castro-Costa E., Ferri C.P., Brayne C., Stephan B., Llibre-Rodriguez J.J., Llibre-Guerra J.J., Valhuerdi-Cepero A.J., Lipton R.B., Katz M.J., Derby C.A., Ritchie K., Ancelin M.-L., Carrière I., Scarmeas N., Yannakoulia M., Hadjigeorgiou G.M., Lam L., Chan W.-C., Fung A., Guaita A., Vaccaro R., Davin A., Kim K.W., Han J.W., Suh S.W., Riedel-Heller S.G., Roehr S., Pabst A., van Boxtel M., Köhler S., Deckers K., Ganguli M., Jacobsen E.P., Hughes T.F., Anstey K.J., Cherbuin N., Haan M.N., Aiello A.E., Dang K., Kumagai S., Chen T., Narazaki K., Ng T.P., Gao Q., Nyunt M.S.Z., Scazufca M., Brodaty H., Numbers K., Trollor J.N., Meguro K., Yamaguchi S., Ishii H., Lobo A., Lopez-Anton R., Santabárbara J., Leung Y., Lo J.W., Popovic G., Sachdev P.S., Cohort Studies of Memory in an International Consortium (COSMIC) (2019)
      Background: With no effective treatments for cognitive decline or dementia, improving the evidence base for modifiable risk factors is a research priority. This study investigated associations between risk factors and ...
    • Effect of Glyceryl Trinitrate on Hemodynamics in Acute Stroke: Data from the ENOS Trial 

      Appleton J.P., Woodhouse L.J., Bereczki D., Berge E., Christensen H.K., Collins R., Gommans J., Ntaios G., Ozturk S., Szatmari S., Wardlaw J.M., Sprigg N., Rothwell P.M., Bath P.M. (2019)
      Background and Purpose - Increased blood pressure (BP), heart rate, and their derivatives (variability, pulse pressure, rate-pressure product) are associated with poor clinical outcome in acute stroke. We assessed the ...
    • Genome-wide scans meta-analysis for pulse pressure 

      Zintzaras, E.; Kitsios, G.; Kent, D.; Camp, N. J.; Atwood, L.; Hopkins, P. N.; Hunt, S. C. (2007)
