Researchers successfully repair stroke-damaged rat brains
(Lund University) Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have succeeded in restoring mobility and sensation of touch in stroke-afflicted rats by reprogramming human skin cells to become nerve cells, which were then transplanted into the rats' brains. The study has now been published in the research journal PNAS.

A case of neonatal onset multisystem inflammatory disease supporting a role of interleukin-1{beta} in moyamoya syndrome
Moyamoya syndrome (MMS) is a chronic progressive cerebrovascular condition characterized by bilateral stenosis/occlusion of the terminal internal carotid artery (ICA) often extending to neighboring cerebral arteries with prominent collateral circulation and increased risk of hemorrhage. Symptoms include stroke, TIA, and headache.1 MMS's etiology is unknown. However, experimental evidence from arterial smooth muscle cells (SMC) derived from patients with MMS has suggested that interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β)-dependent prostaglandin overproduction plays a crucial role in its pathogenesis.2 Neonatal onset multisystem inflamma...

Risk of stroke in patients with heart failure and sinus rhythm: data from the Swedish Heart Failure Registry
ConclusionsIn terms of absolute risk, only 27.6% of patients had an annual IS incidence of ≤1%. To which extent this would be amenable to anticoagulant treatment remains conjectural. A score compiling age and specific co‐morbidities identified HF‐SR patients with increased risk of IS with modest discriminative ability.

Factor XII Concentrations and Risk of Intracerebral Haemorrhage. A Prospective Case-Referent Study
Intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) accounts for about 15% of all stroke in Sweden and is associated with high rates of death and disability.1,2 Biomarkers can be used in predicting disease risk as well as for disease diagnosis and prognosis estimation.3 A range of biomarkers have been studied in relationship to risk of ICH.4-7

A Novel Mutation in COL4A1 Gene in a Chinese Family with Pontine Autosomal Dominant Microangiopathy and Leukoencephalopathy
We report a novel collagen type IV alpha 1 (COL4A1) gene mutation in a Chinese family with PADMAL. The index case was followed up for 6  years. Neuroimaging, whole-exome sequencing, skin biopsy, and pedigree analysis were performed. She initially presented with minor head injury at age 38. MRI brain showed chronic lacunar infarcts in the pons, left thalamus, and right centrum semiovale. Extensive workup was unremarkable except for a patent foramen ovale (PFO). Despite anticoagulation, PFO closure, and antiplatelet therapy, the patient had recurrent lacunar infarcts in the pons and deep white matter, as well as subcortical...
