Multiparametric Neuroimaging and Its Association with Non-Contrast Computed Tomography in Late-Window Large Vessel Occlusion Acute Stroke
Conclusions: A great majority of patients who presented a LVO in the late window fulfilled guidelines imaging criteria to undergo EVT, especially those with high ASPECTS ( ≥6). Our data suggest that NCCT with CT angiography could be a reasonable approach for AIS treatment selection also in the late window.Cerebrovasc Dis

Radiographic risk factors for intracranial hemorrhage in patients with left ventricular assist devices
Patients with end-stage cardiomyopathy may require the use of mechanical circulatory support to maintain perfusion of the vital organs. This is most commonly achieved using an implantable left ventricular assist device (LVAD), typically used as a bridge to orthotopic heart transplant (BTT) or as destination therapy (DT) for those who are not transplant candidates. An LVAD is usually considered for those patients whose disease and symptoms meet INTERMACS Levels 2-4 criteria, indicating a significant decrease in functionality.

Feasibility of deconvolution-based multiphase CT angiography perfusion maps in acute ischemic stroke: Simulation and concordance with CT perfusion
Integration of CT perfusion (CTP) with requisite non-contrast CT and CT angiography (CTA) stroke imaging may allow efficient stroke lesion volume measurement. Using surrogate images from CTP, we simulated the feasibility of using multiphase CTA (mCTA) to generate perfusion maps and assess target mismatch profiles.

Potential mechanisms of acupuncture in enhancing cerebral perfusion of ischemic stroke
Ischemic stroke is the predominant cause of long-term disability and death worldwide. It is attributable to the sudden interruption of regional cerebral blood flow, resulting in brain cell death and neurological impairment. Acupuncture is a widely used adjuvant treatment for ischemic stroke in China and shows promising efficacy in clinical practice. This review mainly focused on the evidence to illustrate several possible mechanisms of acupuncture therapy on cerebral perfusion in ischemic stroke. Studies have shown that acupuncture is probably effective in the enhancement of cerebral perfusion after ischemic stroke. It pro...

Delayed filling of the superficial middle cerebral vein in acute large artery occlusion
ConclusionsIn patients with acute LVO, baseline delayed SMCV was an independent cause of poor stroke prognosis, and SMCV reversal cannot reverse the 3-month stroke prognosis. Therefore, the evaluation of baseline SMCV filling status should be strengthened in clinical practice.

Analysis of Muscular Electrical Activity and Blood Perfusion of Upper Extremity in Patients with Hemiplegic Shoulder Pain: A Pilot Study
CONCLUSION: This study indicated that the muscular electrical activity of upper extremity had a correlation with the presence of HSP, and the blood perfusion seemed to be no such correlation. The findings of the study suggested an alternative way to explore the mechanism and treatment of HSP.PMID:36203950 | PMC:PMC9532142 | DOI:10.1155/2022/5253527

GPR39 Knockout Worsens Microcirculatory Response to Experimental Stroke in a Sex-Dependent Manner
AbstractNo current treatments target microvascular reperfusion after stroke, which can contribute to poor outcomes even after successful clot retrieval. The G protein –coupled receptor GPR39 is expressed in brain peri-capillary pericytes, and has been implicated in microvascular regulation, but its role in stroke is unknown. We tested the hypothesis that GPR39 plays a protective role after stroke, in part due to preservation of microvascular perfusion. We gener ated GPR39 knockout (KO) mice and tested whether GPR39 gene deletion worsens capillary blood flow and exacerbates brain injury and functional deficit after focal ...

Binary effects of intravascular laser irradiation of blood on motor recovery and homocysteine reduction in a case with ischemic hemiparesis: portrayed with brain perfusion images
Stroke is a burdensome cerebral eventthat affects many aspects of daily activities such as motion, speech, memory, vision, and cognition. Intravascular laser irradiation of blood (ILIB) is a novel therapy, goi...

Effect of head-down tilt on clinical outcome and cerebral perfusion in ischemic stroke patients: A case series
ConclusionThe case series suggest that head-down tilt may improve clinical outcome in AIS patients through increasing the cerebral perfusion with no obvious adverse events. The finding needs to be confirmed in future clinical trials.

Association between blood viscosity and early neurological deterioration in lacunar infarction
ConclusionsBlood viscosity at a low shear rate (DBV) was associated with the occurrence of END in patients with lacunar infarction. Blood rheology may be important in pathophysiology of END in patients with lacunar infarction.

Acute Ischemic Stroke in Pregnancy
ConclusionFetal safety concerns should not preclude routine diagnostic work-up (except for gadolinium contrast media administration) in childbearing AIS women, including procedures applied in unknown onset and late onset individuals. Due to rather low added risk of serious treatment complications, pregnancy should not be a  sole contraindication for neither IVT, nor endovascular treatment.
