The Sensitivity, Specificity, and Accuracy of Contrast-Enhanced T1-Weighted Image, T2*-Weighted Image, and Magnetic Resonance Venography in Diagnosis of Cerebral Venous Sinus Thrombosis
Although cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) is much less common than arterial stroke, it afflicts younger patients with still high mortality in developing countries.1,2

In Vitro Evaluation of Focused Ultrasound-Enhanced TNK-Tissue Plasminogen Activator-Mediated Thrombolysis
The low and incomplete recanalization performance of thrombolytic therapy in patients with acute ischemic stroke has created the need to use focused ultrasound (FUS) energy as a way to enhance thrombolysis efficiency (sonothrombolysis). Using an in vitro flow model, the role of various parameters involved in FUS-enhanced tenecteplase (TNK-tPA [tissue plasminogen activator])-mediated thrombolysis was evaluated.

Bihemispheric Paradoxical Cerebral Embolism in a Patient with Pulmonary Thromboembolism and Presumptive Fistula Right-to-Left Shunt
We report a case of a bihemispheric paradoxical cerebral embolism in a patient with pulmonary thromboembolism and presumptive pulmonary arteriovenous fistula. The echocardiogram showed no intracardiac shunt, and the transcranial Doppler (TCD) revealed spontaneous microembolic signals in the middle cerebral arteries (MCAs), and late passage of a higher number of microembolic signals in the MCAs, compatible with right-to-left shunt (RLS). The TCD and the echocardiogram were useful for identifying the RLS when rapid neurological deterioration occurred.

Impact of Prehospital Intervention on Delay Time to Thrombolytic Therapy in a Stroke Center with a Systemized Stroke Code Program
The use of emergency medical services (EMS) and notification to hospitals by paramedics for patients with suspected stroke are crucial determinants in reducing delay time to acute stroke treatment. The aim of this study is to investigate whether EMS use and prehospital notification (PN) can shorten the time to thrombolytic therapy in a stroke center with a systemized stroke code program.

Thrombosis of the Cerebral Veins and Sinuses in Hamadan, West of Iran
Cerebral venous sinuses thrombosis (CVST) is an uncommon type of stroke with an incidence of 3-4 cases per million. There have been reports of higher incidence of this disease in Iran. Our objective is to describe the incidence, clinical presentation, predisposing factors, and outcomes of CVST at Sina Hospital in Hamadan, west of Iran.

Withdrawal of Antithrombotic Agents and the Risk of Stroke
Antithrombotic medications are effective for ischemic stroke prevention, but stoppage of these medications is associated with an increased risk of thromboembolism. The frequency of antithrombotic withdrawal in the general population is unknown.

Coexistence of Deep Vein Thrombosis, Heterotopic Ossification, and Complex Regional Pain Syndrome due to Hemorrhagic Stroke
A patient who developed hemiplegia related to a hemorrhagic stroke and who had not been started on venous thromboembolism prophylaxis or a physical medicine and rehabilitation program was admitted to our clinic on the 4th month after the event. Our patient had pain, swelling, redness, increased temperature at the right lower extremity, range of motion limitation at the hip and knee, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) at the same side lower extremity, and heterotopic ossification (HO) at the hip.

Recanalization and Remarkable Outcome after Subocclusive Thrombus: A Case Report
We present the case of an 83-year-old man with multiple vascular risk factors and recent cardiac surgery who presented with a severe left middle cerebral artery (MCA) syndrome due to a subocclusive thrombus. Intravenous (IV) tissue plasminogen activator was contraindicated given the patient's recent surgery, and endovascular therapy was deferred given improvement in symptoms.

Secondary Prevention of Stroke with Warfarin in Patients with Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation: Subanalysis of the J-RHYTHM Registry
Prior ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) is a high risk for thromboembolism in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF). To clarify rates of thromboembolic and hemorrhagic events, and target intensities of warfarin for secondary prevention, a subanalysis was performed using data from the J-RHYTHM Registry.

Elevations in Tissue Fluid-Attenuated Inversion Recovery Signal Are Related to Good Functional Outcome after Thrombolytic Treatment
In this study, our aim was to assess whether quantitatively determined FLAIR hyperintensity increases could be predictive of improved functional outcome in patients with acute ischemic stroke.

Report of Dramatic Improvement after a Lumboperitoneal Shunt Procedure in a Case of Anticoagulation Therapy-Resistant Cerebral Venous Thrombosis
Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT), which typically progresses from either acute or subacute onset, presents with symptoms related to intracranial hypertension (e.g., headache and papilledema) and brain parenchymal lesions (e.g., aphasia and hemiplegia). Anticoagulation therapy is generally accepted as a treatment for CVT and often leads to good clinical outcomes. However, we experienced a case of CVT with an uncommon clinical course. The patient was a 63-year-old man who presented with headache, papilledema, visual loss, and diplopia; his condition gradually deteriorated, and he was diagnosed with CVT via cerebral angiography.
