High-physiological and supra-physiological 1,2-<sup>13</sup>C<sub>2</sub> glucose focal supplementation to the traumatised human brain Open
How to optimise glucose metabolism in the traumatised human brain remains unclear, including whether injured brain can metabolise additional glucose when supplied. We studied the effect of microdialysis-delivered 1,2- 13 C 2 glucose at 4 a…

Focally administered succinate improves cerebral metabolism in traumatic brain injury patients with mitochondrial dysfunction. Open
Following traumatic brain injury (TBI), raised cerebral lactate/pyruvate ratio (LPR) reflects impaired energy metabolism. Raised LPR correlates with poor outcome and mortality following TBI. We prospectively recruited patients with TBI req…

Phosphorus spectroscopy in acute TBI demonstrates metabolic changes that relate to outcome in the presence of normal structural MRI Open
Metabolic dysfunction is a key pathophysiological process in the acute phase of traumatic brain injury (TBI). Although changes in brain glucose metabolism and extracellular lactate/pyruvate ratio are well known, it was hitherto unknown whe…

Synthesis and characterisation of peroxypinic acids as proxies for highly oxygenated molecules (HOMs) in secondary organic aerosol Open
Peroxy acids were recently found to be involved in new particle formation in the atmosphere and could also substantially contribute towards particle toxicity. However, a lack of suitable analytical methods for the detection and characteris…

A Comparison of Oxidative Lactate Metabolism in Traumatically Injured Brain and Control Brain Open
Metabolic abnormalities occur after traumatic brain injury (TBI). Glucose is conventionally regarded as the major energy substrate, although lactate can also be an energy source. We compared 3-13C lactate metabolism in TBI with "normal" co…
