Identification of acute stroke using quantified brain electrical activity.
CONCLUSIONS: Despite a small population and the use of a classifier without the benefit of training on a stroke population, these data suggest that a rapidly acquired, easy-to-use system to assess brain electrical activity at the time of evaluation of acute stroke could be a valuable adjunct to current clinical practice.

Memory gaps in graduates a 'stroke warning sign'
Conclusion This study showed that highly educated people who notice memory complaints in themselves may be more likely to develop stroke than those who don’t, over an average of 12 years. The study had a number of strengths, such as its population-based prospective design and availability of data on more than 9,000 participants at baseline with a long follow-up. However, there were also a number of limitations that weaken the strength of the conclusions. It was not clear whether the memory complaints were assessed just once at the start of the study or an ongoing basis. Some people may report memory complaints that are o...

Microwave-Based Stroke Diagnosis Making Global Prehospital Thrombolytic Treatment Possible
Here, we present two different brain diagnostic devices based on microwave technology and the associated two first proof-of-principle measurements that show that the systems can differentiate hemorrhagic from ischemic stroke in acute stroke patients, as well as differentiate hemorrhagic patients from healthy volunteers. The system was based on microwave scattering measurements with an antenna system worn on the head. Measurement data were analyzed with a machine-learning algorithm that is based on training using data from patients with a known condition. Computer tomography images were used as reference. The detection meth...

Astrocyte morphology after ischemic and hemorrhagic experimental stroke has no influence on the different recovery patterns.
Abstract Stroke, broadly subdivided into ischemic and hemorrhagic subtypes, is a serious health-care problem worldwide. Previous studies have suggested ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke could present different functional recovery patterns. However, little attention has been given to this neurobiological finding. Coincidently, astrocyte morphology could be related to improved sensorimotor recovery after skilled reaching training and modulated by physical exercise and environmental enrichment. Therefore, it is possible that astrocyte morphology might be linked to differential recovery patterns between ischemic and hem...

Ctbrain machine learning predicts stroke thrombolysis result
Conclusions This proof-of-concept study shows that machine learning methods applied to acute stroke CT-scans potentially offers automation, and improved performance in SICH prediction following thrombolysis. Larger-scale cohorts, and incorporation of CT perfusion/angiography data, should be tested with such methods.

Rehabilitation Improves Behavioral Recovery and Lessens Cell Death Without Affecting Iron, Ferritin, Transferrin, or Inflammation After Intracerebral Hemorrhage in Rats
Conclusions. Rehabilitation is an effective behavioral and neuroprotective strategy for ICH. Neither effect appears to stem from influencing iron toxicity or inflammation. Thus, additional work must identify underlying mechanisms to help further therapeutic gains.

Predicting 10-day Mortality in Patients with Strokes Using Neural Networks and Multivariate Statistical Methods
Conclusions: Training and test performances yielded different results for ischemic and hemorrhagic groups. MLP method was most successful for the training phase, whereas LRA and MDA methods were successful for the test phase. In the hemorrhagic group, higher prediction performances were achieved for both training and testing phases.

Do No Harm: Stories of Life, Death and Brain Surgery review
Patients see neurosurgeons as gods, but what is the reality? Henry Marsh has written a memoir of startling candourWe go to doctors for help and healing; we don't expect them to make us worse. Most people know the aphorism taught to medical students, attributed to the ancient Greek Hippocrates but timeless in its quiet sanity: "First, do no harm." But many medical treatments do cause harm: learning how to navigate the risks of drug therapies, as well as the catastrophic consequences of botched or inadvised surgical operations, is a big part of why training doctors takes so long. Even the simplest of therapies carries the ri...

Comparison of Medicare Claims Versus Physician Adjudication for Identifying Stroke Outcomes in the Women's Health Initiative Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— Medicare data seem useful for population-based stroke research; however, performance characteristics depend on the definition selected.

Multicenter Accuracy and Interobserver Agreement of Spot Sign Identification in Acute Intracerebral Hemorrhage Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— Accuracy for spot identification is high with opportunity for improvement in spot interpretation sensitivity and interobserver agreement particularly through greater reliance on computed tomography angiography source data and awareness of limitations of multiplanar images. Further prospective study is needed.

Biomarkers and perfusion - training-induced changes after stroke (BAPTISe): protocol of an observational study accompanying a randomized controlled trial
DiscussionThis exploratory study will be the first to investigate the effects of physical fitness training in patients with ischemic stroke on MRI-based cerebral perfusion, pertinent blood biomarker levels, and functional outcome. The study may have an impact on current patient rehabilitation strategies and reveal important information about the roles of MRI and blood-derived biomarkers in ischemic stroke.Trial registration: NCT01954797.

The Impact of Comprehensive Stroke Care Capacity on the Hospital Volume of Stroke Interventions: A Nationwide Study in Japan: J-ASPECT Study
We examined the effect of hospital characteristics, having a t-PA protocol, and the number of fulfilled CSC items (total CSC score) on the hospital volume of t-PA infusion, removal of intracerebral hemorrhage, and coiling and clipping of intracranial aneurysms performed in 2009.Results: Approximately 55% of hospitals responded to the survey. Facilities with t-PA protocols (85%) had a significantly higher likelihood of having 23 CSC items, for example, personnel (eg, neurosurgeons: 97.3% versus 66.1% and neurologists: 51.3% versus 27.7%), diagnostic (eg, digital cerebral angiography: 87.4% versus 43.2%), specific expertise...
