Cost-Effectiveness of Patent Foramen Ovale Closure Versus Medical Therapy for Secondary Stroke Prevention Clinical Sciences
Conclusions—PFO closure for cryptogenic strokes in the right setting is cost-effective, producing benefit in QALYs gained and potential cost savings. However, patient selection remains vitally important as marginal declines in treatment effectiveness can dramatically affect cost-effectiveness.

Association of Blood Pressure With Short- and Long-Term Functional Outcome After Stroke Thrombectomy Clinical Sciences
This study aims to assess the association of BP changes during general anesthesia versus conscious sedation with functional outcome after mechanical thrombectomy.Methods—SIESTA (Sedation vs Intubation for Endovascular Stroke Treatment) was a monocentric randomized trial of general anesthesia versus conscious sedation during mechanical thrombectomy involving BP target protocols. In this post hoc analysis, BP measurements were divided into 4 phases: preintervention, prerecanalization, postrecanalization, and postintervention. We examined the association between BP and functional outcomes (defined by improvement of 24-hour ...

Long-Term Outcomes in Patients Aged
Background and Purpose—We aimed to determine whether subjects aged ≤70 years who were treated with intravenous glyburide (RP-1127; BIIB093; glibenclamide) would have better long-term outcomes than those who received placebo.Methods—GAMES-RP (Glyburide Advantage in Malignant Edema and Stroke–Remedy Pharmaceuticals) was a prospective, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled phase 2 clinical trial. Eighty-six participants, aged 18 to 80 years, who presented to 18 centers with large hemispheric infarction (baseline diffusion-weighted imaging volumes, 82–300 cm3) randomized within 10 hours of symptom onset were e...

Cost-Effectiveness of Left Atrial Appendage Closure With the WATCHMAN Device Compared With Warfarin or Non-Vitamin K Antagonist Oral Anticoagulants for Secondary Prevention in Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation Clinical Sciences
Conclusions—Upfront procedure costs initially make LAAC higher cost than warfarin and the non–vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants, but within 10 years, LAAC delivers more quality-adjusted life years and has lower total costs, making LAAC the most cost-effective treatment strategy for secondary prevention of stroke in atrial fibrillation.

Brain Ischemia Induces Diversified Neuroantigen-Specific T-Cell Responses That Exacerbate Brain Injury Basic Sciences
Conclusions—Our findings suggest that brain ischemia activates and diversifies T-cell responses locally, which exacerbates ischemic brain injury.

Early Blood-Brain Barrier Disruption in Ischemic Stroke Initiates Multifocally Around Capillaries/Venules Basic Sciences
Conclusions—Early BBBD in focal cerebral ischemia initiates multifocally in the distal capillary and venular bed of the cerebral microvasculature. It is closely associated with perimicrovascular vasogenic edema and microglial activation and predicts the extent of final infarction.

Role of Myeloid Lineage Cell Autophagy in Ischemic Brain Injury Basic Sciences
In this study, we investigated the roles of myeloid cell autophagy in ischemic brain injury.Methods—Focal cerebral ischemia was induced via transient middle cerebral artery occlusion in mice with autophagy-deficient myeloid lineage cells (Atg5flox/flox LysMCre+) and in their littermate controls (Atg5flox/flox). Infarct volume, neurological function, inflammatory cell infiltration, and proinflammatory cytokine expression levels were evaluated.Results—Mice lacking autophagy in myeloid lineage cells had a lower survival rate for 14 days than control mice (20% versus 70%; P

Synergistic Effects of Enriched Environment and Task-Specific Reach Training on Poststroke Recovery of Motor Function Basic Sciences
Conclusions—Task-specific reach training and environmental enrichment have synergistic effects in rats that persist long after rehabilitation ends, and this recovery is predicted by infarct volume and rehabilitation intensity.

Misdiagnosis of Cerebral Vein Thrombosis in the Emergency Department Brief Report
Conclusions—In a large, heterogeneous multistate cohort, probable misdiagnosis of CVT occurred in 1 of 30 patients but was not associated with the adverse clinical outcomes included in our study.

Relation of RhoA in Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells With Severity of Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage and Vasospasm Brief Report
Conclusions—Our preliminary results indicate that RhoA expression and activity in peripheral blood mononuclear cells might be related with aSAH severity and cerebral vasospasm. RhoA is a potential biomarker of the risks associated with aSAH.

Combining Spot Sign and Intracerebral Hemorrhage Score to Estimate Functional Outcome Brief Report
Conclusions—In the PREDICT cohort, a prognostic score adding the computed tomographic angiography–based spot sign to the established ICH score did not improve functional outcome prediction compared with the ICH score.

Distribution of Lacunar Infarcts in Asians With Intracerebral Hemorrhage Brief Report
Conclusions—Our findings expand on recent work showing that lobar lacunes are more frequent in CAA-ICH than hypertensive ICH. Their independent association with lobar cerebral microbleeds and brain amyloid deposition suggests a relationship with CAA even in an Asian cohort with overall higher hypertensive load.

Innovative Magnetic Resonance Imaging Markers of Hereditary Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy at 7 Tesla Brief Report
Background and Purpose—The aim of the present study is to explore whether using 7 Tesla magnetic resonance imaging, additional brain changes can be observed in hereditary cerebral hemorrhage with amyloidosis-Dutch type (HCHWA-D) patients as compared with the established magnetic resonance imaging features of sporadic cerebral amyloid angiopathy.Methods—The local institutional review board approved this prospective cohort study. In all cases, informed consent was obtained. This prospective parallel cohort study was conducted between 2012 and 2014. We performed T2*-weighted magnetic resonance imaging performed at 7 Tesla...

Low Levels of Caveolin-1 Predict Symptomatic Bleeding After Thrombolytic Therapy in Patients With Acute Ischemic Stroke Brief Report
Background and Purpose—Experimental models of cerebral ischemia demonstrate that the decrease in the caveolin-1 membrane protein results in an increase in endothelial permeability. Because this phenomenon is responsible for hemorrhagic transformation (HT) after cerebral ischemia, we aimed to determine whether caveolin-1 levels may predict bleeding after recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator (r-tPA) administration in patients with acute stroke.Methods—We studied 133 patients with a first hemispheric stroke treated with r-tPA within 4.5 hours of symptom onset. HT was evaluated and classified on cranial computed t...
