Length of carotid stenosis predicts peri‐procedural stroke or death and restenosis in patients randomized to endovascular treatment or endarterectomy
ConclusionsIncreasing stenosis length is an independent risk factor for peri‐procedural stroke or death in endovascular treatment and carotid endarterectomy, without favoring one treatment over the other. However, the excess restenosis rate after endovascular treatment compared with carotid endarterectomy increases with longer stenosis at baseline. Stenosis length merits further investigation in carotid revascularisation trials.

Alberta Stroke Program Early Computed Tomography Score to Select Patients for Endovascular Treatment: Interventional Management of Stroke (IMS)-III Trial Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— ASPECTS is a strong predictor of outcome and a predictor of reperfusion. ASPECTS did not identify a subpopulation of subjects that particularly benefitted from endovascular therapy immediately after routine intravenous tPA.

Pathogenesis and Risk Factors for Cerebral Infarct After Surgical Aortic Valve Replacement Brief Reports
Conclusions— The principal mechanism of acute cerebral infarction after aortic valve replacement is embolism. There are distinct factors associated with watershed and embolic infarct, some of which may be modifiable.

Predictors of Restenosis Following Carotid Angioplasty and Stenting Brief Reports
Conclusions— Carotid restenosis after carotid angioplasty is associated with ipsilateral stroke occurrence. In our sample, hypertension, angioplasty without stent, and impaired vasoreactivity identify patients at high risk of restenosis and could help to select patients for follow-up ultrasonography imaging.

Outcomes of Primary and Secondary Carotid Artery Stenting Clinical Sciences
This study evaluates outcomes of redo-CAS and CAS after prior ipsilateral carotid endarterectomy (CASAPICEA) relative to primary-CAS.Methods—We studied all patients in the Vascular Quality Initiative, who underwent primary-CAS, CASAPICEA, or redo-CAS (2003–2016). Kaplan–Meier, multivariable logistic and Cox regression analyses were used to evaluate outcomes within 30 days and up to 1 year and identify their predictors.Results—There were 11 742 CAS procedures performed: 8519 (72%) primary-, 2645 (23%) CASAPICEA, and 578 (5%) redo-CAS. Comparing primary-CAS versus CASAPICEA versus redo-CAS, 30-day stroke/death was ...

Efficacy and Limitations of Multimodal Endovascular Revascularization Other Than Clot Retrieval for Acute Stroke Caused by Large-vessel Occlusion
Conclusions: Multimodal EVT for acute LVO yields a high reperfusion rate with a minimal risk of sICH and contributes to favorable patient outcomes. These techniques should be considered when clot retrieval is unsuitable or ineffective.

Sex Differences in Revascularization Interventions after Acute Ischemic Stroke
Conclusions: Over the last decade, women hospitalized for AIS in the United States were less likely than men to receive cerebrovascular and cardiac reperfusion therapies. However, the IV tPA treatment sex disparity may have been eliminated.

Periprocedural Myocardial Infarction After Carotid Endarterectomy and Stenting: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— The risk of MI after CEA and CAS did not significantly differ. Risk factors for MI are overall similar in both techniques except that men are at lower risk of MI after CAS but not after CEA.
