Clinical Outcomes of Extracranial Carotid Artery-Related Stroke Eligible for Mechanical Reperfusion on Top of Per-Guidelines Thrombolytic Therapy: Analysis from a 6-Month Consecutive Patient Sample in 2 Centers
CONCLUSIONS In a real-life AIS-CA setting, the referral rate of EMR-eligible patients for EMR was low, and the treatment rate was even lower. AIS-CA revascularization was delivered predominantly in stroke thrombectomy-capable cardioangiology centers, resulting in overwhelmingly superior patient outcome. Large vessel occlusion stroke referral and management pathways should involve centers with proximal-protected CAS expertise. AIS-CA, irrespective of any thrombolysis administration, is a hyperacute cerebral emergency and EMR-eligible patients should be immediately referred for mechanical reperfusion.PMID:36451526 | DOI:10.12659/MSM.938549

'Dense Inverted Triangle Sign' in Cerebral Venous Thrombosis
Intern Med. 2022 Nov 30. doi: 10.2169/internalmedicine.0764-22. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe early diagnosis of cerebral venous thrombosis in the emergency department is challenging. A 70-year-old man presented to the emergency department after falling with new-onset convulsions. Brain unenhanced computed tomography (CT) revealed right frontal hemorrhage indicative of traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Brain unenhanced CT on day 2 revealed increased density in the anterior superior sagittal sinus (SSS), namely 'dense inverted triangle sign.' Brain magnetic resonance venography showed a filling defect in the ante...

Hereditary thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura and COVID-19: Impacts of vaccination and infection in this rare disease
DISCUSSION: The risk of an acute episode triggered by COVID-19 seems higher than following vaccination in hTTP patients, who can be safely vaccinated against SARS-CoV-2.PMID:36284639 | PMC:PMC9585384 | DOI:10.1002/rth2.12814

A rare cause of abdominal pain managed unconventionally: acute renal infarction caused by atrial fibrillation: a case report
ConclusionsAcute renal infarction from thromboembolism is a rare but serious complication of arterial fibrillation. More efficient and different options for intervention methods will benefit the treatment of this disease. Here, we report a combination therapeutic method that has not been used in acute renal infarction associated with arterial fibrillation, and which restored renal perfusion and prevented long-term kidney injury.

Association Between Ischemic Stroke and Left Atrial Appendage Morphology in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation and Low CHA2DS2-VASc Scores
CONCLUSION: For patients with atrial fibrillation and a low CHA2DS2-VASc score, the non-chicken wing left atrial appendage morphology type is independently associated with ischemic stroke.PMID:36223248 | DOI:10.14503/THIJ-20-7544

Propensity of Stroke in Standard versus Various Aortic Arch Variants: A 200 Patients Study
CONCLUSIONS: Standard aortic arch Type 2, bovine aortic arch Type A, and Type B are associated with an early age at stroke presentation. During routine carotid evaluation by CT or MR angiography in stroke patients, it would be better to evaluate the aortic arch as well, especially in young patients.PMID:36211155 | PMC:PMC9540953 | DOI:10.4103/aian.aian_710_21

Left atrial appendage occlusion in ventricular assist device patients to decrease thromboembolic events: A computer simulation study
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common comorbidity in left ventricular assist device (LVAD) patients and has been identified as a risk factor for thromboembolic stroke. Blood stagnation within the left atrial appendage (LAA) is considered a possible major source of thrombosis and clinical studies have shown reduced thromboembolic risk after LAA occlusion (LAAO). Therefore, this study aims to investigate the effect of LAAO on thrombosis-related parameters using patient-specific simulations. Left ventricular and left atrial geometries of an LVAD patient were obtained from computed tomography and combined with hemodynamic data ...

Natural history of carotid artery free-floating thrombus —A single center, consecutive cohort analysis
ConclusionThe risk of recurrent ischaemic events in patients with CFFT is high, especially in the first week after diagnosis. Prospective studies are needed to further investigate the optimal management of these patients.

Neurophysiology tools to lower the stroke onset to treatment time during the golden hour: microwaves, bioelectrical impedance and near infrared spectroscopy
Ann Med. 2022 Dec;54(1):2658-2671. doi: 10.1080/07853890.2022.2124448.ABSTRACTReperfusion therapy administration timing in acute ischaemic stroke is the main determinant of patients' mortality and long-term disability. Indeed, the first hour from the stroke onset is defined the "golden hour", in which the treatment has the highest efficacy and lowest side effects. Delayed ambulance transport, inappropriate triage and difficulty in accessing CT scans lead to delayed onset to treatment time (OTT) in clinical practice. To date brain CT scan is needed to rule out intracranial haemorrhage, which is a major contraindication to t...

Clinical relevance of incomplete device endothelialization after left atrial appendage closure
ConclusionIDE is common after LAAC, especially in patients with persistent AF, higher left atrial appendage ostial diameter and left atrial size. IDE confers an increased risk for DRT, but may be not necessarily associated with thromboembolic events and poor clinical outcome, providing careful monitoring and continued antithrombotic therapy are given.
