Expression Profile of MicroRNAs in Young Stroke Patients
Kay Sin Tan,Arunmozhiarasi Armugam,Sugunavathi Sepramaniam,Kai Ying Lim,Karolina Dwi Setyowati,Chee Woon Wang,Kandiah Jeyaseelan +6 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the peripheral blood miRNAs and their profiles can be developed as biomarkers in diagnosis and prognosis of cerebral ischaemic stroke.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clopidogrel plus aspirin versus aspirin alone for reducing embolisation in patients with acute symptomatic cerebral or carotid artery stenosis (CLAIR study): a randomised, open-label, blinded-endpoint trial
Ka Sing Lawrence Wong,Christopher Chen,Jianhui Fu,Hui Meng Chang,Nijasri C. Suwanwela,Yining N Huang,Zhao Han,Kay Sin Tan,Disya Ratanakorn,Pavithra Chollate,Yudong Zhao,Angeline Koh,Qing Hao,Hugh S. Markus +13 more
TL;DR: Combination therapy with clopidogrel and aspirin is more effective than aspirin alone in reducing microembolic signals in patients with predominantly intracranial symptomatic stenosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Epidemiology, aetiology, and management of ischaemic stroke in young adults
Merel S. Ekker,Esther M. Boot,Aneesh B. Singhal,Kay Sin Tan,Stéphanie Debette,Anil M. Tuladhar,Frank-Erik de Leeuw +6 more
TL;DR: Progress has been made in identifying patients with a considerable risk of stroke occurrence, such as those with patent foramen ovale, and future prevention studies might result in a decrease in the incidence of stroke and its sequelae in young adults.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relapsed and late-onset Nipah encephalitis.
Chong Tin Tan,Khean Jin Goh,Kum Thong Wong,Sazilah Ahmad Sarji,Kaw Bing Chua,Nee Kong Chew,Paramsothy Murugasu,Yet Lin Loh,Heng Thay Chong,Kay Sin Tan,Tarmizi Thayaparan,Shalini Kumar,Mohd Rani Jusoh +12 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that a unique relapsing and remitting encephalitis or late‐onsetEncephalitis may result as a complication of persistent Nipah virus infection in the central nervous system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Circulating microRNAs as biomarkers of acute stroke.
Sugunavathi Sepramaniam,Jun-Rong Tan,Kay Sin Tan,Deidre Ann DeSilva,Subramaniam Tavintharan,Fung-Peng Woon,Chee-Woon Wang,Fung-Lin Yong,Dwi-Setyowati Karolina,Prameet Kaur,Fu-Jia Liu,Kai Ying Lim,Arunmozhiarasi Armugam,Kandiah Jeyaseelan +13 more
TL;DR: 5 microRNAs, miR-125b-2*, -27a*, -422a, -488 and -627 to be consistently altered in acute stroke irrespective of age or severity or confounding metabolic complications, which emphasizes the possibility of developing these micro RNAs into accurate and useful tools for diagnosis of stroke.
