Atherosclerosis Burden of Brain- and Heart-Supplying Arteries and the Relationship With Vascular Risk in Patients With Ischemic Stroke
Conclusions The single-territory AB of intracranial, cervical, aortic, or coronary arteries might be not reliable for vascular risk stratification in patients with ischemic stroke, and evaluating the TAB of BHAs by quantitatively integrating the single-territory AB is advisable.PMID:37581397 | DOI:10.1161/JAHA.123.029505

The association between asymptomatic coronary artery disease and CHADS2 and CHA2DS2‐VASc scores in patients with stroke
ConclusionCHADS2 and CHA2DS2‐VASc scores were predictive of the presence and severity of CAD in patients with stroke. When a patient has high CHADS2 or CHA2DS2‐VASc scores, physicians should consider coronary artery evaluation.

Vessel perforation during withdrawal of Trevo ProVue stent retriever during mechanical thrombectomy for acute ischemic stroke.
Abstract The authors report a case of an intracranial extravasation during the withdrawal of a Trevo ProVue stent retriever device in a patient being treated for acute ischemic stroke. An 82-year-old woman developed sudden left hemiparesis and aphasia during an urgent cardiac catheterization procedure for a non-ST elevation myocardial infarction. She had a baseline National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score of at least 10 and no improvement with intravenous administration of tissue plasminogen activator (tPA). Cerebral angiography was performed with conscious sedation, confirming an occlusion of the ...

Unprotected carotid artery stenting in symptomatic elderly patients: a single-center experience
Conclusions Endovascular treatment of carotid stenosis without protection devices in symptomatic patients aged >75 years is an alternative to endovascular treatment with protection devices. Complications and mortality rates are similar to studies that used protection devices in lower risk patients.

Sonothrombolysis for acute ischemic stroke - Break on through to the other side
Conclusions: Sonothrombolysis appears to be a safe way to augment the effect of tPA without increasing the door to needle time with the added advantage of observing flow through the occluded artery in real time.

Stroke and Bleeding Risk Assessment in Atrial Fibrillation: Where Are We Now?
Korean Circ J. 2021 Jun 1. doi: 10.4070/kcj.2021.0170. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMost important international guidelines recommend the use of CHA₂DS₂-VASc and HAS-BLED scores for stroke and bleeding risk assessments in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients, respectively. The 2020 AF guidelines of European Society of Cardiology have revised the definition of "C: congestive heart failure (HF)" component, and now patients with either HF with reduced ejection fraction or preserved ejection fraction should be assigned 1 point. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy was also included. Besides, the revised "V: vascular diseases" compone...
