Analysis of Thrombi Retrieved From Cerebral Arteries of Patients With Acute Ischemic Stroke

TL;DR: Thromboemboli retrieved from the MCA or intracranial ICA of patients with acute ischemic stroke have similar histological components, whether derived from cardiac or arterial sources, which provides a foundation for both antiplatelet and anticoagulant treatment strategies in stroke prevention.
Journal ArticleDOI

Optic nerve ultrasound for the detection of raised intracranial pressure.

TL;DR: Bedside ONSD measurement, performed by neurointensivists, is an accurate, non-invasive method to identify ICP > 20 mmHg in a heterogeneous group of patients with acute brain injury.
Journal ArticleDOI

In-Hospital Initiation of Secondary Stroke Prevention Therapies Yields High Rates of Adherence at Follow-up

TL;DR: High rates of adherence to PROTECT therapies were maintained at 90 days after hospital discharge, and tobacco cessation was maintained in 20 of the 24 smokers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Early MRI and outcomes of untreated patients with mild or improving ischemic stroke.

TL;DR: About 10% of patients eligible for acute reperfusion therapy excluded on the basis of mild or rapidly improving symptoms show early neurologic deterioration with infarct expansion within 48 hours, and about 20% show poor outcome at discharge.
Journal ArticleDOI
