Antidepressant Use Is Associated With an Increased Risk of Developing Microbleeds Brief Reports
Conclusions— Antidepressant use was associated with an increased risk of developing microbleeds. Our results may support findings from previous clinical studies about increased intracranial and extracranial bleeding risk in antidepressant users.

Effect of prehospital notification on acute stroke care: a multicenter study
The sooner thrombolytic therapy is given to acute ischemic stroke patients, the better the outcome. Prehospital notification may shorten the time between hospital arrival and brain computed tomography (door-to...

Neck vessel dissection following whiplash-type neck injury
Arterial dissection is a recognised complication of neck manipulation and trauma. In a systematic audit of 148 complex medicolegal whiplash cases 131 had only neck pain, 8 had radiculopathic symptoms, and 9 had symptoms and signs suggesting an arterial dissection of a neck vessel with presumed secondary thromboembolism. Their ages ranged from 28–55. Three had hemipareses supported by scan abnormalities, and one had a probable posterior fossa stroke. Five cases had prolonged symptoms without imaging abnormalities. This series cannot be considered representative of whiplash cases as a whole. The dissection is necessari...

Thrombolytic removal of intraventricular haemorrhage in treatment of severe stroke: results of the randomised, multicentre, multiregion, placebo-controlled CLEAR III trial
This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT00784134. Findings Between Sept 18, 2009, and Jan 13, 2015, 500 patients were randomised: 249 to the alteplase group and 251 to the saline group. 180-day follow-up data were available for analysis from 246 of 249 participants in the alteplase group and 245 of 251 participants in the placebo group. The primary efficacy outcome was similar in each group (good outcome in alteplase group 48% vs saline 45%; risk ratio [RR] 1·06 [95% CI 0·88–1·28; p=0·554]). A difference of 3·5% (RR 1·08 [95% CI 0·90–1·29], p=0·420) was found after adjustment for intraventricular ...

Successful recanalization in acute basilar artery occlusion treated with endovascular therapy is independent of thrombus length
Conclusions Successful recanalization does not depend on thrombus length in patients with BAO treated with EVT. Recanalization can therefore be achieved despite high clot burden. Additionally, a high density of thrombi was a strong predictor of a favorable outcome.

Association of blood viscosity with first-pass reperfusion in mechanical thrombectomy for acute ischemic stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: Elevated DBV was associated with FPR failure. Patients with high DBV had longer thrombus length and required more stent passages than patients with low DBV. PMID: 33074222 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Ipsilateral Vocal Cord Paralysis After Acute Anterior Ischemic Stroke
CONCLUSION: Our case is a rare case of transient ipsilateral vocal cord paralysis associated with anterior unilateral cerebral ischemia. The paralysis resolved with improvement of the cerebral ischemic penumbra.PMID:33635769 | DOI:10.7812/TPP/20.104

Atypical presentation of fistula dysfunction due to brachial arterial embolization mimicking stroke
In this report, failure to recognize the upper limb ischemia would have led to delayed treatment, potentially resulting in the fistula's complete thrombosis and further limb ischemia. We highlight the importance of a diagnosis method like Doppler ultrasound, which allows for rapid evaluation at the patient's bedside.PMID:35000475 | DOI:10.1177/11297298211067686

Asymptomatic Carotid Stenosis Is Associated With Circadian and Other Variability in Embolus Detection
Conclusions: Embolism associated with asymptomatic carotid stenosis shows circadian variation with highest rates 4–6 h before midday. This corresponds with peak circadian incidence of stroke and other vascular complications. These and ASED Study results show that monitoring frequency, duration, and time of day are important in ES detection. Introduction Transcranial Doppler (TCD) detected microembolism in the ipsilateral middle cerebral artery (MCA) may help stratify the risk of stroke and other arterial disease complications in persons with advanced (≥60%) asymptomatic carotid stenosis. If so, this t...

Can a 'microwave helmet' really detect strokes?
Conclusion This study has shown that haemorrhagic strokes could potentially be distinguished from ischaemic strokes by analysing microwave scattering measurements. While the two types of stroke can already be accurately diagnosed by CT or MRI scans in hospital, the “microwave helmet” development is important because it could potentially be used before someone arrives in hospital. This would avoid any time delay and allow people with ischaemic stroke to receive the anti-clotting medication that they need as soon as possible, potentially reducing the extent of damage the stroke causes. The technique isn’t perfect ye...
