Prevalence, knowledge, and treatment of transient ischemic attacks in China
Conclusions: TIA is prevalent and an estimated 23.9 million people in China may have experienced a TIA. Public knowledge on TIA is very limited. TIA appears to be largely undiagnosed and untreated in China. There is an urgent need to develop strategies to improve the identification and appropriate management of TIA.

Subclinical cerebrovascular disease inversely associates with learning ability: The NOMAS
Conclusions: White matter hyperintensities, a marker of cerebral small vessel disease, may have an impact on learning slope. This suggests that verbal learning performance can be incorporated into neuropsychological measures for vascular cognitive impairment and that cerebrovascular disease discovered on imaging affects the ability to learn new information.

Journal Club: Time trends in incidence, case fatality, and mortality of intracerebral hemorrhage
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) remains one of the most catastrophic stroke subtypes, with high case-fatality rate and poor functional outcomes. In the Journal Club article "Time trends in incidence, case fatality, and mortality of intracerebral hemorrhage" by Jolink et al.,1 hospital and population registries were used to assess age- and sex-specific trends in incidence and case fatality of patients with ICH in the Netherlands. The study provides a significant epidemiologic contribution examining a large cohort of patients with ICH from 1980 to 2010. The authors report a decline in incidence, case-fatality, and mortality r...

Complete lingual palsy from bilateral Dejerine syndrome (bilateral medial medullary stroke)
A 63-year-old man with several vascular risk factors presented with sudden left hemiplegia rapidly evolving to quadriparesis, dysarthria, bilateral hypoglossal palsy (video 1 on the Neurology® Web site at Neurology.org), and respiratory failure. IV thrombolysis with recombinant tissue plasminogen activator was administered. MRI confirmed bilateral medial medullary infarction (figure, A), and CT and magnetic resonance angiography showed right vertebral artery V4 occlusion, presumably atherosclerotic (figure, B). Tongue mobility recovered completely after 3 months (video 2).

Teaching NeuroImages: Wallerian degeneration in evolving pediatric stroke
An 8-year-old girl presented with acute hemiparesis and facial palsy. MRI demonstrated right middle cerebral artery territory infarction (figure, A and B), secondary to traumatic dissection. Following discharge, multiple visits for nonspecific neurologic symptoms prompted repeat short-term imaging, initially concerning for right midbrain infarction (figure, C–H).

Teaching Video NeuroImages: My weeping patient: Avoiding the pitfalls of a functional diagnosis
A 54-year-old man presented with symptoms of a posterior circulation stroke. A right facial palsy and horizontal right end gaze nystagmus was noted. On resolution, episodes of uncontrolled weeping without a provoking stimulus was observed (video at Neurology.org). These were initially unremitting, lasting minutes, with complete resolution after 1 month. An early consideration was of a functional neurologic disorder. Subsequent MRI brain demonstrated bilateral anterior pontine infarcts (figure). It has been hypothesized that pseudobulbar affect (PBA) results from the loss of frontal cortex input to the cerebellum during emo...

Strategy to a 5 Minute Door to Needle Time (S5.005)
CONCLUSIONS:Our experience suggests that the "Target: Stroke" strategies (EMS initiation of stroke codes, rapid triage, rt-PA before labs), SMART criteria, and three question tool to predict abnormal coagulation can significantly reduce the time to thrombolysis. However, a multi-disciplinary team, educated and dedicated to providing rapid ischemic stroke treatment, and the development of a culture in which faster treatment is a goal, is a factor that’s impact cannot be measured.Study Supported by:Disclosure: Dr. Parker has nothing to disclose.

Formal Education, Socioeconomic Status and Severity of Neglect (P1.119)
Conclusions: These findings suggest that higher years of education do not decrease the severity of neglect in patients after stroke involving the non-dominant hemisphere. Unlike language disorders, neglect does not seem to be affected by education level. Patients from higher SES class showed less severe neglect; further research is needed to determine if this can be explained by differences in stroke characteristics, brain characteristics (e.g. leukoareosis), or interventions.Disclosure: Dr. Kharal has nothing to disclose.
