Declining Mortality in Cerebral Venous Thrombosis: A Systematic Review Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— There is a clear trend in declining mortality among patients with CVT over time. Possible explanations are improvements in treatment, a shift in risk factors, and, most importantly, the identification of less severe cases by improved diagnostic methods.

Mannose-Binding Lectin Promotes Local Microvascular Thrombosis After Transient Brain Ischemia in Mice Basic Sciences
Conclusions— MBL promotes brain damage and functional impairment after brain ischemia/reperfusion in mice. These effects are secondary to intravascular thrombosis and impaired relative cerebral blood flow during reperfusion. Argatroban protects WT mice, but not MBL knockout mice, emphasizing a role of MBL in local thrombus formation in acute ischemia/reperfusion.

Mechanical Discordance of the Left Atrium and Appendage: A Novel Mechanism of Stroke in Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation Brief Reports
Conclusions— A quarter of patients with paroxysmal AF demonstrate a prothrombotic AF LAA pulse wave Doppler phenotype, despite concurrent sinus rhythm ECG. These findings provide a novel explanation for ongoing thromboembolism in the paroxysmal AF population, despite apparent ECG maintenance of sinus rhythm.

Prothrombin G20210A Mutation Is Associated With Young-Onset Stroke: The Genetics of Early-Onset Stroke Study and Meta-Analysis Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— The prothrombin G20210A mutation is associated with ischemic stroke in young adults and may have an even stronger association among those with earlier onset strokes. Our finding of a stronger association in the younger young adult population requires replication.

Targeting Recombinant Tissue-Type Plasminogen Activator in Acute Ischemic Stroke Based on Risk of Intracranial Hemorrhage or Poor Functional Outcome: An Analysis of the Third International Stroke Trial Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— There is a clinically relevant net positive effect of r-tPA in patients with acute stroke at a high predicted risk of sICH or poor functional outcome. Clinical Trial Registration— URL: http://www.controlled-trials.com. Unique identifier: ISRCTN25765518.

Combination Treatment With N-Acetyl-Seryl-Aspartyl-Lysyl-Proline and Tissue Plasminogen Activator Provides Potent Neuroprotection in Rats After Stroke Basic Sciences
Conclusions— Our data indicate that AcSDKP passes the blood–brain barrier, and that treatment of acute stroke with AcSDKP either alone at 1 hour or in combination with tPA at 4 hours of the onset of stroke is effective to reduce ischemic cell damage in a rat model of embolic stroke. Inactivation of TGF-β and NF-B signaling by AcSDKP in the neurovascular unit may underlie the neuroprotective effect of AcSDKP.

Clinical Associations and Causes of Convexity Subarachnoid Hemorrhage Brief Reports
Conclusions— cSAH comprises a significant proportion of SAH. Commonest causes are cerebral amyloid angiopathy in the elderly and reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome in the young, but differential diagnosis is broad. Misdiagnosis is common and leads to potentially harmful treatments.

Usefulness of N-Terminal Pro-B-Type Natriuretic Peptide Levels for Stroke Risk Prediction in Anticoagulated Patients With Atrial Fibrillation Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— In real-world cohort of anticoagulated patients with AF, NT-proBNP provided complementary prognostic information to an established clinical risk score (CHA2DS2–VASc) for the prediction of stroke/systemic embolism. NT-proBNP was also predictive of all-cause mortality, suggesting that this biomarker may potentially be used to refine clinical risk stratification in anticoagulated patients with AF.

Association Between Arterial Calcifications and Nonlacunar and Lacunar Ischemic Strokes Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— The only difference we found between nonlacunar and lacunar strokes was a higher calcification volume in the aortic arch in nonlacunar strokes. Our findings only partially confirm the notion of distinct etiologies and suggest that the potential role of other plaque components, plaque morphology, and aortic arch calcifications in ischemic stroke subtypes awaits further evaluation.

Role of Preexisting Disability in Patients Treated With Intravenous Thrombolysis for Ischemic Stroke Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— Prestroke disability does not seem to independently increase the risk of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage after thrombolysis. Despite higher mortality, 1 in 3 previously disabled patients may return to his/her prestroke mRS. Therefore, they should not be routinely excluded from thrombolytic therapy.
