Patient's characteristics were analyzed as well procedural complications, angiographic (modified thrombolysis cerebral infarction...
Objectives. Cerebral sinus venous thrombosis (CSVT) is a rare stroke subtype and data regarding prognostic factors to predict outcomes are lacking. Thus, we aimed identify predictors for outcome among CSVT patients. Materials Methods. Prospective databases from four academic medical centers were retrospectively studied. Demographics, clinical presentations, risk factors, radiological, parameters compared. Results. Out of 508 patients diagnosed with CSVT, 21 (4%) died, 91 (18.6%) had...
Background Information regarding the safety and efficacy of specific direct oral anticoagulants (DOAC) in treatment cerebral sinus venous thrombosis (CSVT) is scarce. Apixaban one most frequently prescribed DOACs. Therefore, we aimed to compare with those vitamin k antagonists (VKA) patients CSVT. Methods Prospective CSVT databases from seven academic medical centers were retrospectively analyzed. Patients treated compared VKA. Data on demographics, clinical presentations, risk factors,...
Background: Acute ischemic stroke (AIS) or transient attack (TIA) is the most common neurological manifestations of patients with antiphospholipid syndrome (APS). Incidental diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) positive subcortical and cortical lesions, acute incidental cerebral microinfarcts (CMI), are microscopic detectable on MRI for 10–14 days only. We aimed to look at prevalence CMI in a cohort APS their association subsequent AIS TIA. Methods: This population-based study adults diagnosis...
Patients with cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) occasionally present intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). In this study, we aimed to identify predictors for ICH in CVST patients. Prospective databases from three academic centers were retrospectively analyzed. patients and without upon presentation compared. Among the 404 included (mean age 41.8 years, 33% male), 74 (18.3%) had an ICH. The older (45 ± 20.6 vs. 41.1 18 p = 0.045), more often pregnant or postpartum women (15% 6%, 0.011),...
There is an extensive ethical debate regarding the justifiability of doctors nudging towards healthy behaviour and better health-related choices. One line argument in favour based on empirical findings, according to which a majority among public support nudges. In this paper, we show, experiment conducted, that, choices, people’s attitudes are strongly affected by point view from nudge considered. Significant differences have been found between doctors’ attitude clinical that patients. We...
<h3>Background and Objectives</h3> Stroke-like episodes (SLEs) in patients with mitochondrial encephalomyopathy, lactic acidosis, stroke-like (MELAS) syndrome are often misdiagnosed as acute ischemic stroke (AIS). We aimed to determine unique clinical neuroimaging features for SLEs formulate diagnostic criteria. <h3>Methods</h3> retrospectively identified MELAS admitted between January 2012 December 2021. Clinical imaging findings were compared a cohort of who presented AIS similar lesion...
Introduction: Variations in the left atrial appendage (LAA) morphology are associated with different embolic risk patients fibrillation (AF). Data scarce regarding association between LAA and Embolic stroke of undetermined source (ESUS). Patients methods: Using cardiac computed tomography (CCT) scans, was categorized as either chicken wing (CW), cactus, windsock, or cauliflower. Furthermore, we examined presence large secondary lobes arising from main lobe, considering their existence...
Background Delays in reperfusion treatment, both intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) and endovascular treatment (EVT), adversely affect outcomes patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS). To alleviate these delays, it is essential to comprehend how patients’ baseline characteristics impact in-hospital delays. While demographic socioeconomic factors outcomes, their on delays remains unclear. Method This retrospective analysis at a tertiary center, encompassing AIS receiving IVT / or EVT between...
Background. Cerebral microinfarcts (CMI) represent covert brain ischemia and were associated with stroke risk cognitive impairment. Magnetic resonance imaging diffusion-weighted (DWI) hyperintensities have been suggested to acute CMI. The relationship between malignancy CMI is unknown. Aims. We aimed examine whether more common in patients undiagnosed lung cancer, therefore might serve as a prediction marker for impairment or cancer-related stroke. Methods. used the computerized database of...
Cerebral microinfarcts (CMIs) are the most common type of brain ischemia; however, they extremely rare in general population. CMIs can be detected by magnetic resonance diffusion-weighted imaging (MRI-DWI) only for a very short period approximately 2 weeks after their formation and associated with an increased stroke risk cognitive impairment. We aimed to examine CMI detection rate patients lung cancer (LC), which is strongly ischemic relative other types.
