Background: Retinal artery occlusion (RAO) may lead to irreversible blindness. For acute RAO, intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) can be considered as treatment. However, due the rarity of data about IVT safety and effectiveness is limited. Methods: From multicenter database ThRombolysis for Ischemic Stroke Patients (TRISP), we retrospectively analyzed visual acuity (VA) at baseline within 3 months in non-IVT treated RAO patients. Primary outcome was difference VA between follow up (∆VA)....
(1) Background: The mechanism responsible for stroke in patients younger than 50 often remains unknown. This study was designed to assess whether high-resolution intracranial vessel wall MR imaging (icVWI) may be instrumental determining cause. (2) Methods: Young with and without an identified cause of despite exhaustive investigation were prospectively included. Patients who underwent icVWI compared those did not. We next vulnerable plaques on icVWI. (3) Results: Overall, 47 young over the...
(1) Background: Cervical arterial dissections (CeAD) are a common cause of stroke in young adults. CeAD can be spontaneous (sCeAD) or traumatic (tCeAD). Whether subtypes differ clinical, radiological, and outcome characteristics remains unexplored. (2) Methods: Patients with were identified divided between sCeAD tCeAD. Demographics, clinical features, risk factors, imaging findings, treatments, outcomes compared the groups. Logistic regressions used to determine associated favorable outcome....
