    • GDNF Schwann cells in hydrogel scaffolds promote regional axon regeneration, remyelination and functional improvement after spinal cord transection in rats 

      Chen, Bingkun K.; Madigan, Nicolas N.; Hakim, Jeffrey S.; Dadsetan, Mahrokh; McMahon, Siobhan S.; Yaszemski, Michael J.; Windebank, Anthony J. (Wiley, 2017-03-10)
      Positively-charged oligo[poly(ethylene glycol)fumarate] (OPF+) is a biodegradable hydrogel used for spinal cord injury repair. We compared scaffolds containing primary Schwann cells (SCs) to scaffolds delivering SCs ...
    • Orbit image analysis machine learning software can be used for the histological quantification of acute ischemic stroke blood clots 

      Fitzgerald, Seán; Wang, Shunli; Dai, Daying; Murphree Jr, Dennis H.; Pandit, Abhay; Douglas, Andrew; Rizvi, Asim; Kadirvel, Ramanathan; Gilvarry, Michael; McCarthy, Ray; Stritt, Manuel; Gounis, Matthew J.; Brinjikji, Waleed; Kallmes, David F.; Doyle, Karen M. (Public Library of Science, 2019-12-05)
      Our aim was to assess the utility of a novel machine learning software (Orbit Image Analysis) in the histological quantification of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) clots. We analyzed 50 AIS blood clots retrieved using mechanical ...
    • Platelet-rich clots as identified by Martius Scarlet Blue staining are isodense on NCCT 

      Fitzgerald, Seán; Wang, Shunli; Dai, Daying; Douglas, Andrew; Kadirvel, Ramanathan; Gounis, Matthew J.; Chueh, Juyu; Puri, Ajit S.; Layton, Kennith F.; Thacker, Ike C.; Hanel, Ricardo A.; Sauvageau, Eric; Aghaebrahim, Amin; Almekhlafi, Mohammed A.; Demchuk, Andrew M.; Nogueira, Raul G.; Pereira, Vitor M.; Kvamme, Peter; Kayan, Yasha; Delgado Almandoz, Josser E.; Yoo, Albert J.; Kallmes, David F.; Doyle, Karen M.; Brinjikji, Waleed (BMJ Publishing Group, 2019-04-05)
      Background Current studies on clot characterization in acute ischemic stroke focus on fibrin and red blood cell composition. Few studies have examined platelet composition in acute ischemic stroke clots. We characterize ...
    • Platelet-rich emboli in cerebral large vessel occlusion are associated with a large artery atherosclerosis source 

      Fitzgerald, Seán; Dai, Daying; Wang, Shunli; Douglas, Andrew; Kadirvel, Ramanathan; Layton, Kennith F.; Thacker, Ike C.; Gounis, Matthew J.; Chueh, Ju-Yu; Puri, Ajit S.; Almekhlafi, Mohammed; Demchuk, Andrew M.; Hanel, Ricardo A.; Sauvageau, Eric; Aghaebrahim, Amin; Yoo, Albert J.; Kvamme, Peter; Pereira, Vitor M.; Kayan, Yasha; Delgado Almandoz, Josser E.; Nogueira, Raul G.; Rabinstein, Alejandro A.; Kallmes, David F.; Doyle, Karen M.; Brinjikji, Waleed (American Heart Association, 2019-05-29)
      Background and Purpose— Nearly 30% of large vessel occlusion acute ischemic stroke clots are from an unknown source. We assessed histological clot composition in a series of patients with large vessel occlusion and ...
    • Studying stroke thrombus composition after thrombectomy: What can we learn? 

      Staessens, Senna; François, Olivier; Brinjikji, Waleed; Doyle, Karen M.; Vanacker, Peter; Andersson, Tommy; De Meyer, Simon F. (Lippincott, Williams & Wilkins, 2021-09-14)
      The composition of ischemic stroke thrombi has gained an increasing amount of interest in recent years. The implementation of endovascular procedures in standard stroke care has granted researchers the unique opportunity ...
