Background The hyperdense middle cerebral artery sign on computed tomography indicates proximal occlusion. Recent reports suggest an association between the and successful reperfusion. prognostic value of in patients receiving mechanical thrombectomy has not been extensively studied. Aims Our study aims to evaluate functional outcome with M1 occlusions that had undergone thrombectomy. Methods We conducted a single-center retrospective observational cohort 102 consecutive presenting acute...
The utility of oral 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA)/protoporphyrin fluorescence for the resection high-grade gliomas is well documented, but problem false-negative observations remains. This study compares glioma visualization with low/standard dose 5-ALA (<30 mg/kg) to high-dose (>40 see if by using this higher dose, it possible reduce rate without increasing false-positive (FP) and therefore increase sensitivity.
Background Caregiver awareness of the abilities those they care for has much practical importance, especially from safety standpoint. Objectives To determine whether caregivers persons with memory impairment or Alzheimer's disease know if their are able to recall own drugs and medical histories. Method Persons prodromal probable AD (persons AD) who were visiting our school's neurology internal medicine clinics routine follow-up recruited on days appointments. Sixty-four caregiver-person...
We used principal component analysis (PCA) to examine the structure of a neuropsychological test battery administered 943 cognitively-normal adults enrolled in Southern Illinois University (SIU) Longitudinal Cognitive Aging Study (LCAS). Four components explaining most variance (63.9%) dataset were identified: speed/cognitive flexibility, visuospatial skills, word-list learning/memory, and story memory. Regression analyses confirmed that increased age was associated with decreased scores...
