Prognostic prediction of thrombolytic therapy with rt-PA in acute ischemic stroke patients using an artificial intelligence model
CONCLUSIONS: ANN model is as effective as a logistic regression model in predicting the prognosis of AIS after thrombolytic therapy with rt-PA. Moreover, ANN is slightly superior to logistic regression in accuracy, precision and F1 score.PMID:37560207 | PMC:PMC10408517

Development of a decision analytic model to support decision making and risk communication about thrombolytic treatment
Conclusions: We have produced a DAM that provides an estimation of the likely benefits and risks of thrombolysis for individual patients, which has subsequently been embedded in a computerised decision aid to support better decision-making and informed consent.

Severe Cerebral Venous and Sinus Thrombosis: Clinical Course, Imaging Correlates, and Prognosis
Conclusion The outcome of severe CVT is almost equally divided between severe impairment or death and survival with no or only mild handicap. Specifically, space-occupying mass effect and associated neurologic deterioration seem to determine a poor outcome. Therefore, early detection and treatment of mass effect should be the focus of critical care.

Elevated Red Cell Distribution Width is Associated with Cerebral Infarction in Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage
ConclusionsRDW elevation is associated with cerebral infarction and poor outcome after aSAH. Further evaluation of this association is warranted as it may shed light on mechanistic relations between anemia, inflammation, and thrombosis after aSAH.

Impact and Effectiveness of Dual Aspiration Technique in Stent-Assisted Mechanical Thrombectomy: Recent Improvements in Acute Stroke Management
ConclusionsThe dual aspiration technique with an additional intermediate guide catheter placed closed to the stent retriever leads to decreased procedure time in the anterior circulation. Even in cases with higher thrombus load and treated in DAT, clinical outcome improved.

Clinical and radiological characteristics and predictors of outcome of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis, a hospital-based study
AbstractCerebral venous sinus thrombosis is an uncommon cause of stroke, which is more prevalent in Iran and the Middle East. We aimed to assess the etiology, radiologic, and clinical manifestations of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis, specifically the predictors of patients ’ outcome in Namazi hospital, Shiraz, Iran. In this retrospective study, we included all adult patients with the diagnosis of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis, who were admitted in hospital, from 2012 to 2016. Demographic data, radiologic findings, clinical presentation, risk factors, treatment, a nd outcome according to modified Rankin Scale (mRS) o...
