Massive Epistaxis from Internal Carotid Pseudoaneurysm during Acute Ischemic Stroke in a Patient with Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma.
CONCLUSION: Carotid blowout syndrome in NPC patients during acute ischemic stroke warrants further cervical angiographic study. Endovascular treatment provides immediate hemostasis and obliteration of ICA pseudoaneurysm. PMID: 26077184 [PubMed - indexed for MEDLINE]

Impacts of Cigarette Smoking and Basilar Artery Flow on 1-year Recovery in 3-Month survivors of Intracranial Vertebrobasilar Artery Dissection-related Ischemic Stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest that adequate blood flow may be key to functional recovery after iVBDcaused PCS. Methods to improve blood flow and tissue perfusion after iVBD-caused PCS should be considered in the future clinical studies with the purpose to improve functional recovery in these patients.

Delayed Endovascular Thrombectomy in a Patient Suffering from Stroke in Progression after Intravenous Thrombolytic Therapy.
CONCLUSION: In LAO patients, directly proceeding EVT following IVT may not be hesitated. In addition, while LAO patients with incomplete IV-tPA treatment responses result in transient improvement of neurological symptoms but later reversed, EVT may be a potential rescue therapy in carefully selected patients.

Medication Adherence and Stroke Prevention: What Real World Data Tells Us.
Authors: Hsieh CY Abstract Medication adherence, by definition,(2) is "the extent to which a patient acts in accordance with the prescribed interval and dose of a dosing regimen." Poor medication adherence can interfere with the ability to treat many diseases, leading to greater complications and a lower quality of life.(3) In this issue of Acta Neurologica Taiwanica, Chen et al.(4) presented the inverse association between adherence of antithrombotic agents and poor outcomes after a first-ever ischemic stroke. The findings were consistent with Sung, et al.(5) that medication nonadherence are prevalent in young adu...

Association of COVID-19 Infection and Juvenile Stroke: a Case Series
The objective of this study is to discuss association of juvenile stroke with COVID-19 infection. We analyzed 5 COVID-19 positive and stroke patients with a mean age of 41.2 years-old. Three patients developed large vessel occlusion, one small vessel occlusion and one PRES with superimposed lobar ICH, respectively. The mean initial NIHSS of our patients was 11.6. Except the one with massive cerebellar infarct, a desirable outcome occurred with a mean mRS 2.6 at discharge. The mean ESR and CRP level was elevated to 30.4 ml and 32 mg/dl. The severity of COVID-19 infection was considered mainly as mild. COVID-19 infection has...
