Antithrombotic Therapy Strategy for Cancer-Associated Ischemic Stroke: A Case Series of 26 Patients
The risk of complications from thromboembolism is increased for patients with malignancy. Cancer-associated stroke is also a serious issue with regard to the management of patients with cancer because stroke incidence often causes disabilities that affect daily life and cancer treatment strategy.

Talk About Thrombolysis. Regular Case-Based Discussions of Stroke Thrombolysis Improve Door-to-Needle Time by 20%.
Background: The outcome of stroke patients can be improved by a rapid initiation of thrombolytic therapy. Here, we sought to determine whether an additional simple but thorough case-based discussion of recent thrombolysed cases with the entire neurologic staff can improve the door-to-needle time without changes to the implemented stroke protocol. Methods: For every performed thrombolysis, a route card, consisting of a timeline with 3 time points and target times, had to be completed by the attending neurologist.

Stroke in Association with Thyroid Goitre: A Case Report
Ischaemic stroke secondary to isolated internal carotid artery thrombus without risk factors is uncommon. A 55-year-old woman presented to the acute stroke unit with acute right middle cerebral artery territory infarction secondary to right internal carotid artery occlusion. There were no risk factors for cerebrovascular disease, but mediastinal imaging showed the presence of a large retrosternal goitre which was displacing the mediastinal structures including the brachiocephalic and common carotid artery.

Predictors of Left Atrial Thrombi and Spontaneous Echocardiographic Contrast in the Acute Phase After Cardioembolic Stroke in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation
This study aims to investigate the utility of CHADS2 and CHA2DS2-VASc scores for predicting LAT/SEC, and to investigate the risk factors of residual LAT/SEC after CES onset. Methods: This retrospective study included 124 patients who were admitted with the acute phase of CES at our center. The clinical, echocardiographic variables, the CHADS2/CHA2DS2-VASc scores, and National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score were retrospectively assessed on admission.

The Value of the CHADS2 and CHA2DS2-VASc Score for Predicting the Prognosis in Lacunar Stroke with or without Atrial Fibrillation Patients
Background: The CHADS2 and CHA2DS2-VASc scoring systems have been proved efficacy to stratify stroke and thromboembolism risk in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). Whether CHADS2 and CHA2DS2-VASc score has predictive value for the prognosis in lacunar stroke (LS) patients remains unclear. Methods: A total of 763 consecutive patients with LS (mean age: 66 ± 12 years; 464 male) were enrolled in this study between January 2013 and December 2014. Patients were divided into LS without AF (LS; n = 679) and LS with AF (LS-AF; n = 84) groups.

The First 10 Thrombolysis for Acute Ischemic Stroke in Lao People's Democratic Republic under Teleconsultation from Thailand
This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility and safety of thrombolytic therapy administration at Mittaphab Hospital, Lao PDR under the international telestroke consultation system from King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital, Thailand. Methods: Acute ischemic stroke patients who presented at Mittaphab Hospital within 4.5 hours after the onset and received thrombolytic therapy between December 2016 and June 2017 were studied.

Novel Definition of Stroke “Good Responders” Predicts 90-Day Outcome after Thrombolysis
Identifying predictors of good response in thrombolytic-treated stroke is important to clinical care, resource allocation, and research design. We developed a simple, novel measure of “Good Responders” to assess if 2 short-term variables could predict 90-day outcomes after thrombolysis in stroke.

Multicenter prospective analysis of stroke patients taking oral anticoagulants: The PASTA registry - Study design and characteristics
The management of atrial fibrillation and deep venous thrombosis has evolved with the development of direct oral anticoagulants (DOAC), and oral anticoagulant (OAC) might influence the development or clinical course in both ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke. However, detailed data on the differences between the effects of the prior prescription of warfarin and DOAC on the clinical characteristics, neuroradiologic findings, and outcome of stroke are limited.

Is Door-to-Needle Time Reduced for Emergency Medical Services Transported Stroke Patients Routed Directly to the Computed Tomography Scanner on Emergency Department Arrival?
A nationally recommended practice to accelerate thrombolytic therapy for acute ischemic stroke is to route emergency medical services (EMS)-transported stroke patients directly to the computed tomography (CT) scanner on arrival. We evaluated door-to-needle time with direct-to-CT routing versus emergency department (ED)-bed first routing.

Efficacy and Safety of Thrombolytic Therapy for Stroke with Unknown Time of Onset: A Meta-Analysis of Observational Studies
Recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) is one of the most effective therapies available for patients with known-onset stroke (KOS). Whether rt-PA treatment would improve functional outcomes in patients with stroke with unknown time of onset (UTOS) is undetermined, we aimed to systematically assess the efficacy and safety of thrombolysis for UTOS patients in this meta-analysis.

Low Serum Eicosapentaenoic Acid Levels in Cryptogenic Stroke with Active Cancer
Since Armand Trousseau first described migratory superficial thrombophlebitis in 1865, patients with malignant cancer have been known to be in a hypercoagulable state and at risk for the development of cancer-associated thrombosis.1 Approximately 7% of cancer patients have symptomatic cerebrovascular diseases during the clinical course of cancer, and 15% have cerebrovascular lesions at autopsy.2 Previous studies have demonstrated that cancer patients with cryptogenic ischemic stroke often have high serum D-dimer levels and multiple vascular lesions and show cryptogenic stroke etiology, which seems to be due to a hypercoagulable state.

Care for Patients with Stroke During the COVID-19 Pandemic: Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Suggestions for Preventing Secondary Stroke
Infection with the novel severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 causes the development of the novel 2019 coronavirus disease (COVID-19) and associated clinical symptoms, which typically presents as an upper respiratory syndrome such as pneumonia. Growing evidence indicates an increased prevalence of neurological involvement (e.g., in the form of stroke) during virus infection. COVID-19 has been suggested to be more than a lung infection because it affects the vasculature of the lungs and other organs and increases the risk of thrombosis.

Diagnostic Performances of the Susceptibility Vessel Sign on MRI for the Prediction of Macroscopic Thrombi Features in Acute Ischemic Stroke
In 20% –40% of cases the etiology of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) remains uncertain despite complete diagnostic investigation.1 Correlations between the histological microscopic features of the thrombus and the TOAST (Trial of Org 10 172 in Acute Stroke Treatment) categories have been found.2–5 However, from the macroscopic point of view, only one case report has considered the chromatic visual aspect of the retrieved thrombus.6 Recently, the “white” visual aspect of the thrombus at the moment of withdrawal has been related to atypical etiologies, in particular infective endocarditis.
