Abstract:
The aim of these studies was to investigate the contributions of neural and peripheral factors to the increased resistance to movement and loss of function commonly observed following stroke. Three studies were undertaken to investigate the stiffness of the calf muscles in stroke subjects. Under relaxed conditions, neural factors such as spasticity and peripheral factors such as contracture and thixotropy were investigated. Under active conditions, the contribution of the tonic stretch reflex to functional movement, in this case walking, was investigated. These findings were compared to results

Cerebrovascular diseases (CD) are the third most common cause of death and the leading cause of disability in adults in developed countries (Carmichael, 2012; World Health Organization, 2004). Specifically, ischemic stroke and white matter lesions (WML) often result in multiple neurological, cognitive impairment and behavioral and emotional disorders (Gorelick et al., 2011; Troncoso et al., 2008). Strokes are responsible for damage in the core of the ischemic lesion but may also cause alterations in remote areas from the primary ischemic lesion. The thalamus is a key structure in the cortico-s

With an estimated 5.7 million deaths from stroke each year, stroke is the second leading cause of mortality worldwide. However, there are significant disparities in the burden of chronic, non-communicable diseases such as stroke across the world. Whilst rates of stroke and cardiovascular disease have remained relatively stable or have been declining over the past 10 years in developed countries, recent demographic transitions and economic developments have resulted in developing countries witnessing an escalation in the rates of these diseases that now top lists of leading causes of deat

Stroke is the third leading cause of death and survivors suffer motor impairments.

The purpose of this thesis is to describe the organization of the movements of skilled reaching. Our knowledge of reaching behaviour has been limited to an understanding of specific actions. Results from this thesis describe how reaching is the product of interactions of various parameters that assemble in an integrative way in ontogeny, yet can become dismantled on one level, or generally, throughout multiple levels of what constitutes the behaviour after stroke in adults. These findings demonstrate that skilled reaching constitutes motor parameters that may not be visible in a healthy

Abstract:
In recent years measurements of cerebral perfusion using bolus-tracking MRI have become common clinical practice in the diagnosis and management of patients with stroke and cerebrovascular disease. An active area of research is the development of methods to identify brain tissue that is at risk of irreversible damage, but amenable to salvage using reperfusion treatments, such as thrombolysis. However, the specificity and sensitivity of these methods are limited by the inaccuracies in the perfusion data. Accurate measurements of perfusion are difficult to obtain, especially in patients with cer

Background Patients who experience a stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) are at high risk of recurrent stroke, but little is known about temporal trends in unselected populations. Reports of low adherence to recommended treatments indicate a need for enhanced secondary preventive follow-up to achieve the full potential of evidence-based treatments. In addition, socioeconomic factors have been associated with poor health outcomes in a variety of contexts. Therefore, it is important to assess the implementation and results of secondary prevention in different socioeconomic groups. Aims The

Abstract:
Uraemia confers a prothrombotic tendency in tandem with a bleeding diathesis through platelet dysfunction that is most evident in patients with renal failure who are dependent on haemodialysis. This form of renal replacement therapy accentuates this clinical paradox by its procoagulant nature and the use of regular anticoagulation to prevent dialysis circuit and vascular access thrombotic dysfunction. This thesis evaluates such dysregulated coagulation in the extracorporeal circuit, the central venous catheter and dialyser, and in the twin substrates of cerebrovascular disease, thromboembolism

While conventional clinical imaging simply measures the degree of vessel stenosis, it is a crude measure that reveals little of the metabolic processes affecting plaque vulnerability.

Middle cerebral artery (MCA) stroke can produce chronic incapacitating motor impairments. Understanding the neural basis of the motor syndromes is complicated by the diversity of neural structures damaged but the problem can be addressed in laboratory rats by inducing selective infarcts.
