Neurologic complications of COVID-19 are not well described. We report 2 patients who were diagnosed with after presenting diplopia and ophthalmoparesis.
To examine associations between measures of obesity in middle to early-old age with later-life MRI markers brain aging.We analyzed data from the Northern Manhattan Sub-Study (n = 1,289). Our exposures interest were body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), waist-to-hip ratio, and plasma adiponectin levels. outcomes total cerebral volume (TCV), cortical thickness, white matter hyperintensity (WMHV), subclinical infarcts (SBI). Using multivariable linear logistic regression models...
Background Physical exercise and cognitive training have been recommended to improve outcomes poststroke, but a multifaceted strategy including aerobic, resistance, facilitate poststroke recovery has not investigated. We aimed assess the feasibility, adherence, safety of combined intervention (CARET+CTI) after stroke. Methods Results prospectively randomized patients presenting with recent stroke comparison supervised 12-week CARET+CTI program control group receiving sham CARET+CTI....
Background and Purpose- Few studies have examined the separate contributions of systolic blood pressure diastolic pressures (DBP) on subclinical cerebrovascular disease, especially using 2017 American College Cardiology/American Heart Association Blood Pressure Guidelines. Furthermore, associations with region-specific white matter hyperintensity volume (WMHV) are underexplored. Methods- Using data from NOMAS (Northern Manhattan Study), a prospective cohort study stroke risk cognitive aging,...
Abstract Purpose The purpose of this study was to design a mobile-friendly, Internet-based website, modeled on previously described websites for Alzheimer caregivers, equip stroke caregivers and potentially reduce caregiver burden. Design A mixed-methods performed test the usability Stroke Caregiver Support System (SCSS). Methods An iterative, user-centered approach employed in three phases: (I) Focus Groups, (II) Structured Interviews, (III) Usability Testing. Phase I II provided...
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is associated with an increased risk of ischemic stroke. Whether there are racial and ethnic disparities in the stroke after ICH poorly understood. We therefore aimed to test hypothesis that non-Hispanic Black Hispanic patients have a higher compared White patients.
Poor micturition control may cause profound distress, because proper voiding is mandatory for an active social life. Micturition results from the subtle interplay of central and peripheral components. It involves coordination autonomic neuromuscular activity at brainstem level, under executive prefrontal cortex. We tested hypothesis that administration molecules acting as reuptake inhibitors serotonin, noradrenaline or both exert a strong effect on urine release, in mouse model overactive...
Red blood cell (RBC) concentrations are known to associate with ischemic stroke. It is unclear whether RBC specifically small vessel disease lacunar infarcts. We investigated the hypothesis that both chronic covert and acute symptomatic brain MRI
Adiposity may increase risk for dementia and Alzheimer's disease (AD), but mechanisms are unclear. To examine associations between measures of adiposity with AD-signature region cortical thickness hippocampal volume. We used data from the Northern Manhattan Study, a clinically stroke-free cohort mostly Hispanic participants. Exposures interest included body mass index (BMI), waist-hip-ratio (WHR), waist circumference (WC), adiponectin concentration, measured at study entry. volume were...
Background Atherosclerotic plaques located at the vertebral artery ostium (VAo) are a mechanism for posterior circulation stroke, but little is known about VAo plaque topography and formation. In this study, we describe of atherosclerotic involving origin (VA). Methods Cross‐sectional analyses extracranial duplex studies were performed, classified based on their in 3 groups: (1) exclusively VA ostium; (2) predominantly subclavian, with extension into (3) ostial, subclavian artery)....
Background: Ischemic lesions on diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) occur in one-third of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Due to conflicting prior studies, it is uncertain if the degree systolic blood pressure reduction increases risk. Patients with severe, chronic hypertension may be more vulnerable development ischemia after ICH due altered cerebral autoregulatory limits. Using cardiac remodeling as a biomarker for severe hypertension, we hypothesized that presence left ventricular...
Background: We identified that major ABO incompatible platelet transfusions are associated with poor intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) outcomes, yet the driver for this relationship is unknown and does not appear to be related impaired hemostasis. Conversely, acute ICH patients known develop remote ischemic lesions on brain MRI. These but risk factors their formation unknown. explored whether these lesions. Methods: Consecutive spontaneous enrolled into a single-center, prospective cohort study...
Background: Ischemia on diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) increases the risk of future ischemic stroke. Radiographic markers small vessel disease, including cerebral microbleeds (CMB), are associated with DWI lesions. Though cortical superficial siderosis (cSS) is also a hemorrhagic disease subtype, it unclear if cSS similarly relates to We hypothesized that would represent more severe phenotype and associate lesions ICH independent other markers. Methods:...
Background: We have previously identified that hemoglobin decrements and new-onset anemia during an intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) hospitalization is frequent, rapid, associates with poor outcome. Though this association may be related to impaired cerebral oxygen delivery, it unclear whether these changes relate ischemia. investigated the relationship of over time ischemic lesions on brain MRI ICH hospitalization. Methods: Consecutive patients acute spontaneous enrolled into a single-center,...
Abstract WHO Grade II meningiomas represent a minority of all meningiomas. The creation treatment algorithms has remained challenging, with the need to add postoperative radiotherapy (RT) following satisfactory gross total resection being oftentimes debated. Thus, goal this study was understand which factors, if any, predispose recurrence atypical resection. Therefore, we retrospectively review 90-patient cohort grade who underwent surgical Patients were clustered based on tumor location,...
Research suggests optimizing sleep, exercise and work-life balance may improve resident physician burnout. Wearable biosensors allow residents to detect correct poor sleep habits before burnout develops. Our objectives were evaluate the feasibility of a wearable biosensor characterize exercise/sleep in neurology examine its relationship self-reported, validated survey measures. We also assessed device's impact on well-being barriers use.This prospective cohort study evaluated WHOOP Strap 2.0...
