Characteristics of Symptomatic Basilar Artery Stenosis Using High-Resolution Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Ischemic Stroke Patients.
CONCLUSIONS: The etiology of stenosis or occlusion was unclear until the development of HR-MRI. With HR-MRI, stroke etiology is better understood, and factors affecting each etiology can be identified. Further studies that clarify the etiology of posterior circulation stroke are required.

Global Cortical Atrophy Is Associated with an Unfavorable Outcome in Stroke Patients on Oral Anticoagulation
Conclusion: GCA was associated with our composite outcome also after adjusting for other cSVD markers (i.e., CMB, WMH) and age, indicating that GCA may potentially serve as a prognostic marker for stroke patients with atrial fibrillation on oral anticoagulation.Cerebrovasc Dis

Effect of Pulmonary Endarterectomy for Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension on Stroke Volume Response to Exercise
In pulmonary hypertension, exercise is limited by an impaired right ventricular (RV) stroke volume response. We hypothesized that improvement in exercise capacity after pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA) for chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is paralleled by an improved RV stroke volume response. We studied the extent of PEA-induced restoration of RV stroke volume index (SVI) response to exercise using cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (cMRI). Patients with CTEPH (n = 18) and 7 healthy volunteers were included. Cardiopulmonary exercise testing and cMRI were performed before and 1 year after PEA. For cMRI ...

Writing Tremor Secondary to Ischemic Stroke: A Report on a Case With a Remarkable Response to Topiramate
Conclusions: Primary WT pathophysiology is not well known, and secondary WT as a result of stroke is even less considered. Although patients with essential tremor benefit with TPM and WT could be a variant of essential tremor, we used TPM with our patient and there was a marked benefit.

Relationship between deep medullary veins in susceptibility-weighted imaging and ipsilateral cerebrovascular reactivity of middle cerebral artery in patients with ischemic stroke.
In conclusion, 3.0 T SWI was useful in detecting the DMVs around the lateral ventricle in patients with atherosclerotic ischemic stroke. CVR and stenosis of anterior cerebrocervical arteries were independent risk factors for ipsilateral DMVs in SHs and AHs. PMID: 27284303 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Thrombolysis After Protamine Reversal of Heparin for Acute Ischemic Stroke After Cardiac Catheterization: Case Report and Literature Review
Conclusions: There are limited reports of protamine reversal of heparin before IV-tPA administration. To our knowledge, there are only 6 AIS cases including ours. Three cases received 0.6 mg/kg of tPA dose. All have favorable outcomes and no intracranial hemorrhage was reported. Protamine reversal of heparin for AIS after CC seems to be safe. Further studies are needed to confirm the therapeutic safety and efficacy of this strategy.

Stroke-like lesions in mitochondrial disease may resemble ischemic stroke
J Family Med Prim Care. 2021 Aug;10(8):3151-3153. doi: 10.4103/jfmpc.jfmpc_2314_20. Epub 2021 Aug 27.ABSTRACTThe patient is a 73-y-male who was referred after a fall without losing consciousness or secessus. Clinical exam revealed disorientation, ophthalmoparesis, hemianopia to the left, left hemineglect, hypoacusis, quadruparesis, general wasting, generally reduced tendon reflexes, mild rigor, occasional myoclonic jerks of the right lower limb, and ataxia of the left lower limb. Cerebral magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed a stroke-like lesion (SLL), generalized atrophy, white matter lesions, and ponsgliosis. The prev...

Urinary Immunoglobulin G Is Associated with Deep and Infratentorial Cerebral Microbleeds in Stroke Patients
Conclusions: Urinary IgG was associated with the prevalence of D/I or mixed location CMBs in TIA or ischemic stroke patients. Our findings provide new insights into the association between urinary IgG and the distribution of CMBs.Cerebrovasc Dis

Rational clinical approach to transient ischaemic attack, stroke and associated mimics: A retrospective cohort study
CONCLUSIONS: The present study demonstrated that specific clinical features and risk factors were associated with the final diagnosis at TIA clinic. These clinical features may assist with diagnosis of TIA in centres without access to a vascular neurologist.PMID:37190670 | DOI:10.1111/1742-6723.14238

Gender heterogeneity in the influencing factors for cerebral microbleeds in acute ischemic stroke patients
CONCLUSION: There are gender differences in the influencing factors for CMBs in AIS patients. Age, old LIs, and blood glucose are independent risk or protective factors for comorbid CMBs in female AIS patients, although they are not associated with the risk of developing CMBs in male AIS patients.PMID:37259500 | DOI:10.1080/03007995.2023.2219581

Recurrent Intracerebral Hemorrhage in Patients With Hypertension is Associated With APOE Gene Polymorphism: A Preliminary Study
This study evaluates the roles of apolipoprotein E (APOE) and α-1 antichymotrypsin (ACT) genes in patients with recurrent hypertensive ICH and compares patients with nonrecurring hypertensive ICH and normal controls.Methods: Thirty-three recurrent and 101 nonrecurrent patients with hypertension and ICH were included. The demographic, stroke risk factors, and computed tomographic or magnetic resonance imaging findings were recorded. Magnetic resonance angiography or digital subtraction angiography and vasculitic profile were done in recurrent group to exclude secondary causes of ICH. APOE and ACT gene polymorphisms were as...
