Carotid Siphon Calcification Predicts the Symptomatic Progression in Branch Artery Disease With Intracranial Artery Stenosis
CONCLUSIONS: We found that carotid siphon calcification was associated with BAD and its computed tomography values could predict the symptomatic progression in patients with intracranial arterial atherosclerotic disease and BAD, indicating the important role of carotid calcification in B-type intracranial arterial atherosclerotic disease.REGISTRATION: URL: http://www.chictr.org.cn; Unique identifier: ChiCTR1800018315.PMID:35652332 | DOI:10.1161/ATVBAHA.122.317670

Association of Systolic Blood Pressure and Cerebral Collateral Flow in Acute Ischemic Stroke by Stroke Subtype
CONCLUSIONS: Elevated initial SBP was associated with poor cerebral collateral flow and more severe symptoms in the CE group, but not in the LAA group in patients with AIS-LVO. These findings suggest differential effects of initial SBP elevation on collateral flow by stroke subtypes.PMID:35645966 | PMC:PMC9136006 | DOI:10.3389/fneur.2022.863483

Glucose-6-phosphate Dehydrogenase Deficiency and Intracranial Atherosclerosis Stenosis in Stroke Patients
CONCLUSION: Stroke patients with G6PD deficiency have a higher prevalence and ICAS burden than those with normal G6PD, particularly those who are male, older, and hypertensive.PMID:35608963 | DOI:10.1111/ene.15418

Early plasma D-dimer as a predictor of acute intracranial atherosclerosis-related large vessel occlusion in acute ischemic stroke
CONCLUSION: Low early plasma D-dimer levels are a significant and independent predictor of ICAS+LVO, and predictive value strengthens when in a combined model using D-dimer and collateral grading.PMID:35575229 | DOI:10.1177/02841851221097463

Hypoperfusion Intensity Ratio is Associated with Stroke Mechanism in Patients Undergoing Mechanical Thrombectomy
CONCLUSIONS: Large artery atherosclerosis was independently associated with favorable HIR in patients undergoing mechanical thrombectomy. While favorable HIR was associated with smaller pre-treatment core infarcts, reflecting more robust collaterals, it was not associated with good clinical outcome.PMID:35550982 | DOI:10.1016/j.jstrokecerebrovasdis.2022.106539

Cardiac myxomas: clinical presentation, diagnosis and management
Cardiac myxomas (CM) are the most common type of primary cardiac tumours in adults, which have an approximate incidence of up to 0.2% in some autopsy series. The purpose of this review is to summarise the literature on CM, including clinical presentation, differential diagnosis, work-up including imaging modalities and histopathology, management, and prognosis. CM are benign neoplasms developed from multipotent mesenchyme and usually present as an undifferentiated atrial mass. They are typically pedunculated and attached at the fossa ovalis, on the left side of the atrial septum. Potentially life-threatening, the presence ...

Po-644-03 impact of pre-procedural planning with a novel cardiac ct software platform on the efficiency of a left atrial appendage closure procedure
Percutaneous left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) is an accepted option for stroke prevention in high-risk patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) unable to take long-term oral anticoagulation. Cardiac CT scans are increasingly being used for pre-procedural planning of structural heart procedures. However, the impact of pre-procedural planning on LAAC procedures is unknown.

Plasma amyloid- β40 in relation to subclinical atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease: A population-based study
CONCLUSIONS: In this population-based study, higher plasma amyloid-β40 is associated with subclinical atherosclerosis, but not risk of first-ever ASCVD after accounting for traditional cardiovascular risk factors.PMID:35452865 | DOI:10.1016/j.atherosclerosis.2022.03.025

A Study of Srum Homocysteine Level in Ischaemic Stoke
CONCLUSION: The present study revealed that hyperhomocysteinemia appears to be an important risk factor for ischemic stroke. It is therefore important to use serum homocysteine as an important tool to investigate all cases of ischemic stroke and if serum homocysteine is elevated patient should be put on multivitamins containing vitamin B12, folic acid and pyridoxine to reduce serum homocysteine levels.PMID:35443421

Arterial Tortuosity and Its Correlation with White Matter Hyperintensities in Acute Ischemic Stroke
CONCLUSIONS: Increased extra- and intracranial large arteries tortuosity is associated with AIS. The tortuosity of left carotid artery system and vertebral artery may be the independent risk factors for WMH severity in AIS patients. Clinical Trial Registration. This trial is registered with NCT03122002 (http://www.clinicaltrials.gov).PMID:35369646 | PMC:PMC8970938 | DOI:10.1155/2022/4280410
