Contralesional Brain Activity in Acute Ischemic Stroke
Conclusions: Short conventional EEG measurements show robust changes of brain activity and functional connectivity in both ipsilateral and contralateral hemispheres of patients with acute ischemic stroke. Changes of remote functional connectivity tend to interact with functional recovery. Future studies should estimate predictive values for individual patients and interactions with plasticity enhancing treatments.Cerebrovasc Dis 2018;45:85 –92

Default Mode Network Disruption in Stroke-Free Patients with Atrial Fibrillation
Conclusions: Stroke-free patients with AF have evidence of abnormal DMN connectivity. This study adds evidence to the occurrence of cerebral dysfunction in patients with AF.Cerebrovasc Dis 2018;45:78 –84

Natural History of Vertebrobasilar Dolichoectatic and Fusiform Aneurysms: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Conclusion: In general, the natural history of ­VBDAs is poor. However, dolichoectatic and fusiform ­VBDAs appear to have distinct natural histories with substantially higher growth and rupture associated with fusiform aneurysms. These findings suggest that these aneurysms should be considered separate entities. Further studies on the natural history of vertebrobasilar dolichoectatic and fusiform aneurysms with more complete follow-up are needed to better understand the risk factors for progression of these aneurysms.Cerebrovasc Dis 2018;45:68 –77

Predictors for Mortality after Mechanical Thrombectomy of Acute Basilar Artery Occlusion
Conclusions: Failure of successful recanalization was a strong predictor for mortality. In the setting of recanalization, age, admission NIHSS, pc-ASPECTS, absence of intravenous thrombolysis, and angioplasty/stenting of the basilar artery were also independent predictors for mortality after MET of BAO patients.Cerebrovasc Dis 2018;45:61 –67

Primary Prevention of Stroke in Chronic Kidney Disease Patients: A Scientific Update
Background: Although chronic kidney disease (CKD) is an independent risk factor for stroke, official recommendations for the primary prevention of stroke in CKD are generally lacking.Summary: We searched PubMed and ISI Web of Science for randomised controlled trials, observational studies, reviews, meta-analyses and guidelines referring to measures of stroke prevention or to the treatment of stroke-associated risk factors (cardiovascular disease in general and atrial fibrillation (AF), arterial hypertension or carotid artery disease in particular) among the CKD population. The use of oral anticoagulation in AF appears safe...

Computed Tomography Perfusion Derived Blood-Brain Barrier Permeability Does Not Yet Improve Prediction of Hemorrhagic Transformation
Conclusion: BBBP predicts HT but does not improve prediction with age and admission NIHSS.Cerebrovasc Dis 2018;45:26 –32

High Systolic Blood Pressure after Successful Endovascular Treatment Affects Early Functional Outcome in Acute Ischemic Stroke
Conclusions: High SBP in the first 24 h after recanalization of acute anterior cerebral vessel occlusions is associated with unfavorable functional outcome. Interventional studies are needed to determine the role of SBP management as a modifiable parameter in the early phase after successful EVT.Cerebrovasc Dis 2017;45:18 –25

Acute Kidney Injury Following Acute Ischemic Stroke and Intracerebral Hemorrhage: A Meta-Analysis of Prevalence Rate and Mortality Risk
Conclusions: This meta-analysis provides evidence that AKI is a common complication following both AIS and ICH and it is associated with increased mortality following AIS but not ICH. This highlights the need for early assessment of renal function in the acute phase of AIS, in particular, and avoidance of factors than may induce AKI in vulnerable patients.Cerebrovasc Dis 2017;45:1 –9

Temporal Associations between Fatigue, Depression, and Apathy after Stroke: Results of the Cognition and Affect after Stroke, a Prospective Evaluation of Risks Study
Conclusions: Bidirectional associations were found between PSF and PSD. In treatment and rehabilitation programs, early focus on the presence of PSD and PSF is important, since these conditions tend to persist. As there are currently more treatment options for PSD, attention for PSD is important and might also have a beneficial effect on PSF.Cerebrovasc Dis 2017;44:330 –337

Early Cognitive Impairment after Intracerebral Hemorrhage in the INTERACT1 Study
Conclusions: One third of patients have significant cognitive impairment early after ICH, which is more frequent in the elderly, females, those with prior ICH, and more severe initial neurological deficit and with persistently high early systolic BP.Cerebrovasc Dis 2017;44:320 –324

Ischemic Stroke Patients Demonstrate Increased Carotid Plaque Microvasculature Compared to (Ocular) Transient Ischemic Attack Patients
Conclusions: This study indicates a positive association of leaky plaque microvasculature with a recent ischemic stroke compared to (ocular) TIA. Prospective longitudinal studies are needed to investigate whetherKtrans or other plaque characteristics may serve as an imaging marker for predicting (the type of) future cerebrovascular events.Cerebrovasc Dis 2017;44:297-303

Cerebral Infarct Topography and Early Outcome after Surgery for Symptomatic Carotid Stenosis: A Multicentre Study
Conclusion: BZ infarcts carry a greater risk of postoperative complications after carotid surgery, thus suggesting that topography of the CI should be considered in the decision-making process regarding surgery.Cerebrovasc Dis 2017;44:291-296

Early Screening Parameters for Dysphagia in Acute Ischemic Stroke
This study aimed to detect early and easily assessable predictors of dysphagia in a large cohort of patients with acute ischemic stroke.Methods: Our analysis was based on data from a prospective in-hospital registry. Patients with ischemic stroke were included over the course of 3 years. Patients were scheduled to undergo a clinical swallowing investigation within the first 24 h after hospital admission. Step-wise multivariate logistic regression was used to identify independent predictors of dysphagia in general and of pneumonia in particular.Results: 1,646 patients with ischemic stroke were included. Stroke severity in t...

Selection Paradigms for Large Vessel Occlusion Acute Ischemic Stroke Endovascular Therapy
Conclusions:For patients with NIHSS ≥10, PIM appears to disqualify more patients without improving outcomes. CCM may improve selection, combining a high inclusion rate with optimal outcome discrimination across (+) and (-) patients. Future studies are warranted.Cerebrovasc Dis 2017;44:277-284
