Role of atherosclerosis, clot extent, and penumbra volume in headache during ischemic stroke
Conclusions: Headache in the early phase of ischemic stroke tends to occur less often in patients with atherosclerosis than in patients without atherosclerosis in the large cerebral arteries. This finding lends support to the hypothesis that vessel wall elasticity is a necessary contributing factor in the occurrence of headache during acute ischemic stroke.

Vulnerability to Infarction During Cerebral Ischemia in Migraine Sufferers Clinical Sciences
Conclusions—Migraine is likely to increase individual vulnerability to ischemic stroke during the process of acute brain ischemia and might represent, therefore, a potential new therapeutic target against occurrence and progression of the ischemic damage.

Intravenous Thrombolysis Resulting In Acute Ischemic Stroke Recanalization Can Lead To Cerebral Hyperperfusion Syndrome (P7.123)
Conclusion- Cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome after intravenous thrombolysis in acute ischemic stroke should be suspected in patients that achieve arterial recanalization and develop unexplained new neuropsychiatric manifestations.Disclosure: Dr. Ong has nothing to disclose.

Cerebral perfusion in stroke-like migraine attacks after radiation therapy syndrome
We present 2 patients with recurrent attacks of SMART syndrome with increased cerebral blood volume in affected regions and abnormal vascular reactivity on transcranial Doppler ultrasound, suggesting a potential mechanism.

Intravenous Thrombolysis in Posterior Circulation Stroke
Conclusions: Up to date, no data about PCIS and IVT are available from RTCs. Based on limited results from retrospective clinical studies and case series, IVT is safer for use in PCIS than in ACIS. Patients with brainstem ischemia, vertebral artery occlusion, and absence of basilar or posterior cerebral artery occlusion could be considered for treatment with IVT even in borderline cases. Time to IVT in PCIS seems to be a less crucial factor than in ACIS. IVT for PCIS may be beneficial even after 4.5 h from symptom onset.

Direct and Indirect Cost Burden of Stroke Mimics Post Intravenous Tissue Plasminogen Activator (IV-tPA): A Single Center Study (P3.103)
CONCLUSIONS:This study reveals that stroke mimics can have significant cost burden on health care system; mainly from the cost of IV-tPA and higher level of care. An urgent MR with selected sequences and perfusion imaging in certain patient population can be helpful to exclude patients with stroke mimics, avoid extra cost, and prevent unnecessary distress to the patient and family.Disclosure: Dr. Goyal has nothing to disclose.

Stroke Mimics in the Acute Setting: Role of Multimodal CT Protocol ADULT BRAIN
CONCLUSIONS: Multimodal CT demonstrated low sensitivity but high specificity in the diagnosis of stroke mimics in the acute setting. The high specificity of multimodal CT allows ruling out stroke and thereby avoiding unnecessary revascularization treatment in patients with diagnosis of a stroke mimic.

Assessing the influence of migraine on ischemic penumbra and on the prognosis of ischemic stroke: A prospective cohort study
CONCLUSION: Migraine is not associated with the absence of ischemic penumbra, the volume of the ischemic penumbra, or the stroke prognosis.PMID:36988078 | DOI:10.1111/head.14492
