Deep learning-based classification of DSA image sequences of patients with acute ischemic stroke
CONCLUSION: Our deep learning-based approach to thrombus identification in DSA sequences yielded high accuracy on our single-center test data set. External validation is now required to investigate the generalizability of our method. As demonstrated, using this new approach may help reduce the incident risk of overlooking thrombi during thrombectomy in the future.PMID:35604489 | DOI:10.1007/s11548-022-02654-8

Venous thromboembolism in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia
Abstract Venous thromboembolism (VTE) occurs in 0.95–36 % of children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia almost exclusively during chemotherapy. It is most commonly associated with concurrent l-asparaginase and steroid therapy, central venous line use, and inherited thrombophilia. Clinical manifestations regarding the location of VTE include central nervous system thrombosis (sinus venous thrombosis, cerebral infarct/stroke), upper-/lower-limb deep venous thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, and right atrial/intracardiac and superficial venous thrombosis and can be both symptomatic and asymptomatic. The majority of ...

Stroke with intracranial stenosis is associated with increased platelet activation in sickle cell anemia
ConclusionStroke with intracranial stenosis is associated with increased platelet activation in sickle cell anemia, and further investigation is needed on the role of anti‐platelet agents in this high‐risk population. Pediatr Blood Cancer © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
