Transcranial Laser Therapy in Acute Stroke Treatment: Results of Neurothera Effectiveness and Safety Trial 3, a Phase III Clinical End Point Device Trial Major Clinical Trial
Conclusions— Once the results of the interim futility analysis became available, all study support was immediately withdrawn by the capital firms behind PhotoThera, and the company was dissolved. Proper termination of the trial was difficult but was finally achieved through special efforts by former employees of PhotoThera, the CRO Parexel and members of the steering and the safety committees. We conclude that transcranial laser therapy does not have a measurable neuroprotective effect in patients with acute ischemic stroke when applied within 24 hours after stroke onset.

Racial/Ethnic Differences in Process of Care and Outcomes Among Patients Hospitalized With Intracerebral Hemorrhage Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— Although individual quality indicators in ICH varied by race/ethnicity, black, Hispanic, and Asian patients with ICH had lower risk-adjusted in-hospital mortality than white patients with ICH.

Impact of Living Alone on the Care and Outcomes of Patients With Acute Stroke Brief Reports
Conclusions— Patients living alone had delayed hospital arrival, less thrombolytic therapy, and were less likely to return home. Greater understanding of the inter-relationships among living alone, social isolation, access to stroke care, and outcomes is needed.

Cervical Arterial Dissections and Association With Cervical Manipulative Therapy: A Statement for Healthcare Professionals From the American Heart Association/American Stroke Association AHA/ASA Scientific Statement
Conclusions— CD is an important cause of ischemic stroke in young and middle-aged patients. CD is most prevalent in the upper cervical spine and can involve the internal carotid artery or vertebral artery. Although current biomechanical evidence is insufficient to establish the claim that CMT causes CD, clinical reports suggest that mechanical forces play a role in a considerable number of CDs and most population controlled studies have found an association between CMT and VAD stroke in young patients. Although the incidence of CMT-associated CD in patients who have previously received CMT is not well established, an...

Thrombolysis in Ischemic Stroke Without Arterial Occlusion at Presentation Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— This study provides crucial data that patients with ischemic stroke who do not have visible arterial occlusion at presentation may benefit from thrombolysis.

Defining Clinically Relevant Cerebral Hemorrhage After Thrombolytic Therapy for Stroke: Analysis of the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke Tissue-Type Plasminogen Activator Trials Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— The ECASS2 and mSITS-MOST symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage definitions, which combine radiological features and occurrence of substantial early neurological deterioration, best identify tPA hemorrhages that alter final patient outcome.

Von Willebrand Factor Drives the Association Between Elevated Factor VIII and Poor Outcomes in Patients With Ischemic Stroke Brief Reports
Conclusions— Concurrent FVIII/vWF elevation predicts higher odds of inpatient complications, neuroworsening, and worse functional outcomes for patients with AIS compared with patients with normal levels. Our findings suggest that FVIII and vWF levels may serve as clinically useful stroke biomarkers by providing risk profiles for patients with AIS.

Race/Ethnic Differences in the Risk of Hemorrhagic Complications Among Patients With Ischemic Stroke Receiving Thrombolytic Therapy Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— In patients with stroke receiving tPA, hemorrhagic complications were slightly higher in blacks and Asians, but not in Hispanics compared with whites. Asians also faced significantly higher risk for sICH relative to other race/ethnic groups. Future studies are needed to evaluate whether reduction in tPA dose similar to that used in many Asian countries could improve the safety of tPA therapy in Asians in the United States with acute ischemic strokes while maintaining efficacy.

Diagnostic Yield of Pelvic Magnetic Resonance Venography in Patients With Cryptogenic Stroke and Patent Foramen Ovale Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— Among patients with ischemic stroke/transient ischemic attack and patent foramen ovale, the majority of detected DVTs were in LE veins rather than the pelvic veins and did not differ by stroke subtype. The routine inclusion of pelvic magnetic resonance venography in the diagnostic evaluation of CS warrants further prospective investigation.

Vessel Wall Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Acute Ischemic Stroke: Effects of Embolism and Mechanical Thrombectomy on the Arterial Wall Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— Mechanical thrombectomy results in intracranial arterial wall thickening and enhancement, potentially mimicking the VW-MRI appearance of primary arteritis. This arterial wall abnormality is less common in patients with arterial occlusion who have been treated with medical therapy alone.

Different Doses of Recombinant Tissue-Type Plasminogen Activator for Acute Stroke in Chinese Patients Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— These results did not support the dose of 0.9 mg/kg of r-tPA being optimal for all patients in the East Asian population. In elderly patients (71–80 years), a lower dose of 0.6 mg/kg is associated with a better outcome. Confirmation of the results through randomized trial is required.
