Resting-state Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging Analysis of Brain Functional Activity in Rats with Ischemic Stroke Treated by Electro-acupuncture
To evaluate whether electro-acupuncture (EA) treatment at acupoints of Zusanli (ST 36) and Quchi (LI 11) could reduce motor impairments and enhance brain functional recovery in rats with ischemic stroke.

An Acute Ischemic Stroke Resulting from Aortic Dissection
A 39-year-old man with syncope and persistent dizziness was sent to stroke emergency. Patient's diffusion magnetic resonance imaging of brain showed acute ischemia in right cerebella and right occipital lobe, thus intravenous recombinant tissue plasminogen activator was given to him. However, the patient behaved rather restless with repeated complaint of back and thoracic pain. Further thorax computed tomography angiography confirmed that the underlying cause turned out to be aortic dissection.

Ischemic Stroke Secondary to Paradoxical Embolism Through a Pulmonary Arteriovenous Malformation: Case Report and Review of the Literature
We report a 32-year-old man who presented with an abrupt onset of right facial weakness and expressive aphasia. Brain magnetic resonance imaging revealed an acute infarct in the left middle cerebral artery territory and chronic infarcts in the bilateral cerebellar hemispheres. A cardioembolic mechanism was initially considered in the setting of perimyocarditis diagnosed a few months earlier.

Limb Shaking Transient Ischemic Attacks with Normal Neurovascular Ultrasound may Herald Cardioembolic Stroke: ACase Report
We describe a 74 year-old woman with abrupt left arm jerking and normal urgent computed tomography scan, electroencephalography (EEG) as well as carotid and transcranial ultrasound. Two days later she developed an overt ischemic stroke, with left mesencephalon and left cerebellar hemisphere lesions at brain magnetic resonance imaging and paroxysmal atrial fibrillation at Holter-EKG.

Short-Term Risk of Ischemic Stroke After Detection of Left Ventricular Thrombus on Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Background: The short-term risk of ischemic stroke in patients with left ventricular (LV) thrombus identified via delayed-enhancement cardiac magnetic resonance (DE-CMR) imaging is uncertain. Methods: We performed a retrospective cohort study of patients who underwent DE-CMR for evaluation of LV systolic dysfunction at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital/Weill Cornell between 2007 and 2016. We identified all hospitalized patients who had DE-CMR evidence of LV thrombus, and as controls, all hospitalized patients who had no DE-CMR evidence of LV thrombus; 2 control patients were randomly selected for each patient with LV thrombus.

Use of 3-Dimensional, Black-Blood, Contrast-Enhanced, T1-Weighted Magnetic Resonance Imaging to Identify Vascular Occlusion in the Posterior Circulation After Acute Ischemic Stroke
Background: Three-dimensional, black-blood, contrast-enhanced, T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (3D-BB-ceT1-MRI) could play a role in detection of thrombi and symptomatic intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis. We investigated the role of 3D-BB-ceT1-MRI in patients with acute ischemic stroke in the posterior circulation, and compared our findings with those from susceptibility-weighted imaging (SWI). Materials and Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 3D-BB-ceT1-MRI for patients between January 2017 and August 2018 with acute ischemic symptoms in the posterior circulation.

Comparison of Automated CT Perfusion Softwares in Evaluation of Acute Ischemic Stroke
Background and Purpose: Automated imaging software is integral to decision-making in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) during extended time windows. RAPID software is the most widely used and has been validated in landmark endovascular trials. Olea software is another commercially available and FDA-approved software, but has not been studied in AIS trials. We aimed to compare the diagnostic utility and accuracy of RAPID and Olea in everyday clinical practice outside of a clinical trial. Methods: We analyzed prospectively-collected data from a consecutive cohort of 141 patients with suspected AIS who underwent computed tomography...

Intraventricular Silicone Oil Migration Resembling Hemorrhagic Complication in a Patient with Ischemic Stroke Receiving Antithrombotic Therapy
We report herein a case of intraventricular silicone oil migration, a rare complication of intraocular silicone oil tamponade, mimicking a hemorrhage during antithrombotic therapy for ischemic stroke. A 62-year-old male patient with a history of diabetic retinopathy was admitted for right hemiparesis and dysarthria. Brain magnetic resonance imaging on admission showed an acute left-sided ventral medullary infarction, and antithrombotic therapy was started. Head computed tomography done on the next day after admission showed an area of high-density resembling a hematoma in the lateral ventricle.

A case of ischemic stroke associated with protein-losing gastroenteropathy and protein S deficiency
We report a 24-year-old woman who developed acute dysarthria and right hemiplegia 4 months after delivering her first baby by cesarean section. Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging showed a high-intensity signal in the left anterior cerebral artery territory and middle cerebral artery territory.

Outcome of 312 Japanese Patients with Carotid Endarterectomy and Factors Associated with Cardiovascular Events—A Single-center Study in Japan
Background: There have only been a few reports regarding the outcomes and risk factors after CEA. To clarify the factors associated with outcome in patients with carotid stenosis who underwent carotid endarterectomy (CEA), we investigated cardiovascular events and mortality in the Kyushu Medical Center in Japan.Methods: We consecutively registered patients with significant carotid stenosis who had CEA performed over 10 years and compared the incidences of stroke, myocardial infarction, and death. On admission, we evaluated medical records for stroke risk factors, including hypertension, diabetes mellitus, hypercholesterol...

Hyperacute-Phase Computed Tomography–Diffusion-Weighted Imaging Discrepancy and Response to Thrombolysis
This study investigated the incidence and clinical features of reversed discrepancy (RD) in patients with hyperacute ischemic stroke. Sixty-two patients with anterior circulation ischemic stroke were enrolled. All patients underwent computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging within 3 hours and received therapy with intravenous tissue plasminogen activator. The relationships between the Alberta Stroke Programme Early CT Score on CT and diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI); deep white matter lesion on DWI (DWI-W), CT, or magnetic resonance imaging after 24 hours; dramatic improvement (defined as a change in National...
