A Retrospective Cohort Study on the Use of Intravenous Thrombolysis in Stroke Mimics
The objectives of this study were to compare thrombolysed acute ischemic stroke and stroke mimic cases based on demographic factors, physiological parameters, radiological findings, and clinical presentation, and to evaluate the clinical implications of thrombolysing stroke mimics.

Impact of Prehospital Intervention on Delay Time to Thrombolytic Therapy in a Stroke Center with a Systemized Stroke Code Program
The use of emergency medical services (EMS) and notification to hospitals by paramedics for patients with suspected stroke are crucial determinants in reducing delay time to acute stroke treatment. The aim of this study is to investigate whether EMS use and prehospital notification (PN) can shorten the time to thrombolytic therapy in a stroke center with a systemized stroke code program.

Decrease in Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1 and Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1 Ratio in the First Week of Stroke Is Related to Positive Outcomes
High insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), measured once during acute stroke, is associated with greater survival rates and lower stroke severity. However, information is lacking regarding how IGF-1 availability, determined by IGF-1's ratio to insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3), relates to recovery and how the response of IGF-1 during the first week of stroke relates to outcomes. The purpose of this study was to determine the following: (1) the relationship between percent change in IGF-1 and IGF-1 ratio during the first week of stroke and stroke outcomes; and (2) the difference in percent change in IGF...

Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio Is a Prognostic Marker in Acute Ischemic Stroke
In this study, we aimed to investigate the relationship of neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio with stroke severity, functional outcome, and recurrent ischemic stroke after acute ischemic stroke.

Utility of Ward-Based Retinal Photography in Stroke Patients
Improvements in acute care of stroke patients have decreased mortality, but survivors are still at increased risk of future vascular events and mitigation of this risk requires thorough assessment of the underlying factors leading to the stroke.The brain and eye share a common embryological origin and numerous similarities exist between the small vessels of the retina and brain. Recent population-based studies have demonstrated a close link between retinal vascular changes and stroke, suggesting that retinal photography could have utility in assessing underlying stroke risk factors and prognosis after stroke.

Accessibility to Tertiary Stroke Centers in Hokkaido, Japan: Use of Novel Metrics to Assess Acute Stroke Care Quality
Both the accessibility and availability of stroke specialists are major determinants of patient outcomes following acute ischemic stroke (AIS). The purpose of this study was to implement novel metrics to assess the accessibility of tertiary stroke centers as well as to evaluate regional disparities in stroke specialists.

Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score-Time Score Predicts Outcome after Endovascular Therapy in Patients with Acute Ischemic Stroke: A Retrospective Single-Center Study
Clinical outcomes after successful endovascular therapy in patients with acute ischemic stroke are associated with several factors including onset-to-reperfusion time (ORT), the National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score, and the Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score (ASPECTS). The NIHSS-time score, calculated as follows: [NIHSS score] × [onset-to-treatment time (h)] or [NIHSS score] × [ORT (h)], has been reported to predict clinical outcomes after intravenous recombinant tissue plasminogen activator therapy and endovascular therapy for acute stroke.

Which Ischemic Stroke Subtype Is Associated with Hyperhomocysteinemia?
In this study, we hypothesized that serum total homocysteine level may be related with specific atherothrombotic ischemic stroke subtypes and aimed to find if high serum homocysteine levels are correlated with any specific ischemic stroke subtype.

Ischemic Volume and Neurological Deficit: Correlation of Computed Tomography Perfusion with the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale Score in Acute Ischemic Stroke
The National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) is the most adopted stroke patients' evaluation tool in emergency settings to assess the severity of stroke and to determine the patients' eligibility for specific treatments. Computed tomography perfusion (CTP) is crucial to identify salvageable tissue that can benefit from the reperfusion treatment. The aim of this study is to identify the relation between the NIHSS scores and the hypoperfused volumes evaluated by CTP in patients with hyperacute ischemic stroke.

The Impacts of Peptic Ulcer on Functional Outcomes of Ischemic Stroke
This study aimed to evaluate the impacts of peptic ulcer on functional outcomes of ischemic stroke. Methods: Patients with first-ever ischemic stroke were grouped as with and without history of peptic ulcer. Functional outcomes were evaluated with modified Rankin scale at 90 days after the index stroke. Favorable functional outcomes were defined as with a modified Rankin scale score of 0-2.
