Intensive Blood Pressure–Lowering Treatment in Patients with Acute Lacunar Infarction
Conclusions: Considerable reduction in 24-hour BP levels was attained around day 21. The limit of BP level to which BP can be safely lowered appears to be lower than that was previously considered.

Amusia for Pitch Caused by Right Middle Cerebral Artery Infarct
A 61-year-old right-handed man with hypertension and dyslipidemia noted that he was singing along to classic rock songs on his car radio, but his voice was off pitch. Six days later, a magnetic resonance imaging scan of his brain revealed a cerebral infarct of the right temporal parietal cortex and insula. Case reports of the precise anatomic correlates of disordered pitch musical processing have been few and fragmentary. The anatomic involvement of our case coincides with the areas of involvement in 3 previously reported cases. Increased awareness of amusia as a rare clinical presentation of stroke should lead to earlier stroke intervention.

Clinical Characteristics of Cardioembolic Transient Ischemic Attack: Comparison with Noncardioembolic Transient Ischemic Attack
Conclusions: Clinical features are similar in tissue-defined TIA of cardioembolic and noncardioembolic etiologies. The CHADS2 score can be useful in assessing the probability of cardioembolic TIA.

Association of Brachial-Ankle Pulse Wave Velocity with Asymptomatic Intracranial Arterial Stenosis in Hypertension Patients
Intracranial arterial stenosis is a common cause of ischemic stroke in Asians. We therefore sought to explore the relationship of brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity and intracranial arterial stenosis in 834 stroke-free hypertensive patients.

Cardiovascular Responses Associated with the Moving Beans Task: Influence of Psychological Characteristics
High blood pressure (BP) after stroke is associated with a poor outcome. However, exercise training or speech therapy for patients with stroke can raise the BP. The aim of this study was to examine cardiovascular responses during the moving beans task (MBT) used in occupational therapy and to study the influence of psychological characteristics on cardiovascular responses during this task in healthy subjects.

Comparison of Nicardipine with Clevidipine in the Management of Hypertension in Acute Cerebrovascular Diseases
In acute stroke, hypertension worsens outcomes. Guidelines do not mention a preferred antihypertensive agent. This present study aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of nicardipine and clevidipine in acute stroke.

Reproducible Presyncope Due to Osteophyte Compression Into Transverse Foramen of the C5 Vertebra
Beauty parlor stroke syndrome is characterized by the development of various neurological symptoms during cervical hyperextension, followed by inadequate blood flow through the posterior circulation of the brain. However, there are few reports of beauty parlor stroke syndrome wherein the cause of the posterior circulatory inadequacy has been directly identified. Here we report a case where we could directly detect the origin of the posterior circulatory inadequacy. A 76-year-old Japanese man with hypertension presented with presyncope following cervical retroflexion.

Hemorrhagic Transformation during Thrombolytic Therapy and Reperfusion: Effects of Age, Blood Pressure, and Matrix Metalloproteinases
Background: Despite the increasing use of thrombolytic therapy for acute ischemic stroke, hemorrhagic transformation remains a significant complication. Transformation appears to occur more frequently with age, diabetes, and hypertension, but clinical data are mixed. In addition to risk factors, matrix metalloproteinase expression mediates hemorrhage. We sought to test the effects of age, hypertension, and matrix metalloproteinases during recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) treatment in a standard model of filament occlusion of the middle cerebral artery.Methods: We compared young and aged rats who were geneti...

Association of rs2075575 and rs9951307 Polymorphisms of AQP-4 Gene with Leukoaraiosis
Background: Leukoaraiosis (LA) is associated with structural and functional vascular changes that correlate with motor and gait disturbances, depressive symptoms, urinary disturbances, and dementia. The blood–brain barrier (BBB) plays a key role in development of lacunar stroke, leukoaraiosis, and other feature of cerebral small-vessel disease, and there are numerous studies examining changes in the BBB with normal aging and in dementia and LA. Aquaporin-4 (AQP-4), the primary water channel protein in the central nervous system, is involved in BBB development, function, and integrity, and its dysfunction induces several ...

Diagnostic Accuracy and Risk Factors of the Different Lacunar Syndromes
Conclusions: The clinical diagnosis of patients with lacunar syndromes is inaccurate, especially among patients with sensorimotor syndrome. DWI is mandatory for obtaining an accurate diagnosis of the infarct.

Prevalence and Clinicoradiological Analyses of Patients with Alzheimer Disease Coexisting Multiple Microbleeds
Conclusions: The present study indicated that the prevalence of multiple MBs was 17% in Japanese AD patients. The clinicoradiological profile suggested severe degree of CAA in patients with multiple L MBs (9%) and hypertension and aged changes in patients with multiple D/I MBs (8%). T2*-weighted imaging is a useful tool for evaluating degree of CAA and hypertensive vascular changes. We should pay more attention to management and care in AD patients with multiple MBs.
