<h3>Background and Objectives</h3> Declines in stroke admission, IV thrombolysis (IVT), mechanical thrombectomy volumes were reported during the first wave of COVID-19 pandemic. There is a paucity data on longer-term effect pandemic over course year through second We sought to measure admissions, intracranial hemorrhage (ICH), IVT, 1-year period at onset (March 1, 2020, February 28, 2021) compared with immediately preceding 2019, 29, 2020). <h3>Methods</h3> conducted longitudinal...
In the absence of systematic and longitudinal data, this study prospectively assessed both frequency evolution sleep-wake disturbances (SWD) after stroke. 437 consecutively recruited patients with ischemic stroke or transient attack (TIA), characteristics outcome were within 1st week 3.2 ± 0.3 years (M±SD) acute event. SWD by interview questionnaires at 1 3 months as well 2 Sleep disordered breathing (SDB) was respirography in phase repeated one fifth participants year later. Patients (63.8%...
Summary Important brainstem regions are involved in the regulation of rapid eye movement sleep. We hypothesized that stroke is associated with dysregulated sleep and related muscle activity. compared quantitative/qualitative polysomnography features activity (any, phasic, tonic) between 15 patients ( N = 46 periods), 16 lacunar/non‐brainstem 40 healthy controls 62 Parkinson's disease polysomnography‐confirmed behaviour disorder. Further, group, we performed a magnetic resonance imaging‐based...
Background: We developed an automated smart phone application for detection of acute stroke using machine learning (ML) algorithms recognition facial asymmetry, arm weakness, and speech changes. Methods: analysed prospectively collected data from patients admitted to 4 major metropolitan centers with confirmed diagnosis stroke. Speech were captured via video recording was device sensors. A. Face. This module extracts 68 landmark points that are passed through a dimensionality reduction step...
During the first outbreak of COVID-19 in spring 2020 different symptoms disease were reported. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate initial neurological among hospitalized patients that time period. In with confirmed COVID-19, symptoms, concomitant diseases, signs, and status assessed. Sixty-six (mean age 63 years) prospectively enrolled, 44 (66.7%) them males. Initial reported by 51 (77.3%), most commonly headache (14 [21.2%]), dizziness, vertigo [21.2%]). Dysgeusia was present 13...
