Background and Purpose— Although arteriopathies are the most common cause of childhood arterial ischemic stroke, strongest predictor recurrent they difficult to diagnose. We studied role clinical data follow-up imaging in diagnosing cerebral cervical arteriopathy children with stroke. Methods— Vascular effects infection pediatric an international prospective study, enrolled 355 cases stroke (age, 29 days 18 years) at 39 centers. A neuroradiologist neurologist independently reviewed vascular...

Background and Purpose- Although perfusion abnormality is an increasingly important therapeutic target, the natural history of tissue at risk without reperfusion treatment understudied. Our objective was to determine how time affects penumbral salvage infarct growth in untreated acute ischemic stroke patients whether collateral status this relationship. Methods- We used a prospectively collected, multicenter registry assess who were not treated with intravenous thrombolysis or endovascular...

<h3>BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:</h3> Childhood arteriopathies are rare but heterogenous, and difficult to diagnose classify, especially by nonexperts. We quantified clinical imaging characteristics associated with childhood arteriopathy subtypes facilitate their diagnosis classification in research settings. <h3>MATERIALS METHODS:</h3> The Vascular Effects of Infection Pediatric Stroke (VIPS) study prospectively enrolled 355 children arterial ischemic stroke (2010–2014). A central team experts...

Background and Purpose— To investigate the effect of chronic hyperglycemia on cerebral microvascular remodeling using perfusion computed tomography. Methods— We retrospectively identified 26 patients from our registry 2453 who underwent a tomographic study had their hemoglobin A 1c (HbA ) measured. These were divided into 2 groups: those with HbA &gt;6.5% (n=15) ≤6.5% (n=11). Perfusion studies processed delay-corrected, deconvolution-based software. values compared between patient groups,...

Secondary degeneration in areas beyond ischemic foci can inhibit poststroke recovery. The cysteine protease Cathepsin B (CathB) regulates cell death and intracellular protein catabolism. To investigate the roles of CathB development secondary ventroposterior nucleus (VPN) ipsilateral thalamus after focal cerebral infarction, infarct volumes, immunohistochemistry immunofluorescence, Western blotting analyses were conducted a distal middle artery occlusion (dMCAO) stroke model adult rats. We...

Stroke is the leading cause of adult disability in world. In general, recovery from stroke incomplete. Accumulating evidences have shown that focal cerebral infarction leads to dynamic trans-neuronal degeneration non-ischemic remote brain regions, with disruption connections synapsed neurons sustaining ischemic insults. Previously, we had reported ipsilateral striatum, thalamus degenerated succession after permanent distal branch middle artery occlusion (dMCAO) Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats and...

Accurate gait event detection is necessary for control strategies of rehabilitation robots. However, due to personal diversity between individuals, it a challenge robots detect at various stride frequencies. This paper proposes novel method robot using single inertial sensor mounted on the thigh. A self-adaptive threshold detecting heel strike obtained in real time via linear regression model. Observable thresholds toe off are constant Experiments conducted based 20 healthy subjects and six...

We aim to test how well modern nonhabitual barefoot people can adapt and Minimalist Bare Foot Technology (MBFT) shoes, in regard gait symmetry. 28 healthy university students (22 females/6 males) were recruited walk on a 10-meter walkway randomly barefoot, MBFT neutral running shoes at their comfortable walking speed. Kinetic kinematic data collected using an 8-camera motion capture system. Data of joint angles, forces, moments extracted compute consecutive symmetry index. Compared led worse...

Barefoot technology shoes are becoming increasingly popular, yet modifications still needed. The present study aims to gain valuable insights by comparing barefoot walking neutral shoe in a healthy youth population.28 university students (22 females and 6 males) were recruited walk on 10-meter walkway both running at their comfortable speed. Full step cycle kinematic kinetic data collected using an 8-camera motion capture system.In the early stance phase, knee extension moment (MK1), first...

Profound malnutrition and immunodeficiency are serious negative effects of radiotherapy bone marrow transplantation for hematologic malignancy patients. This study aimed to evaluate the nutritional supplementation with a soy-whey protein mixture on hematopoietic immune reconstitution in an allogeneic transplant mouse model. Male BALB/c (H-2Kd) mice, 6-8 weeks-old, were divided randomly into five groups then provided different nutrition support. After 28 days, blood samples, marrow, spleen,...

Transient ischemic attack (TIA) is a brief episode of cerebral ischemia. However, if symptom not presented as drop or hemiplegia, and alarming to the patient physician, how short duration would raise concern physician for TIA? It will be more complicated location neurological deficit vagrant. This report highlights rare TIA case which very migratory patchy distribution numbness.A middle-aged gentleman was with recurrent numbness on right side body 2 months, lasting about 10 s.
