Cerebrospinal fluid and blood flow patterns in idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus
ConclusionsThe typical flow of blood and CSF in INPH was mainly characterized by increased CSF pulsatility in the aqueduct and reduced cervical CSF pulsatility. The direction of mean net aqueduct CSF flow was from the third to the fourth ventricle. Our findings may reflect the altered distribution of intracranial CSF volume in INPH, although the causality of these relationships is unclear.

Preexisting cognitive impairment in intracerebral hemorrhage
ConclusionsIn conclusion, cognitive impairment frequently precedes ICH. A higher frequency of cerebrovascular events suggests a role of vascular processes in the development of cognitive impairment before ICH.

A pilot randomized controlled trial comparing effectiveness of prism glasses, visual search training and standard care in hemianopia
ConclusionsNo significant change occurred for area of visual field area across arms over follow‐up. Visual search training had significant improvement in vision‐related quality of life. Prism therapy produced adverse events in 69%. Visual search training results warrant further investigation.

Rehabilitation in chronic spatial neglect strengthens resting state connectivity
ConclusionIntense VR training that improved left sided awareness in chronic stroke patients also increased sporadic interhemispheric functional connectivity within the DAN. Specifically, a region responsible for saccadic eye movement to the left became more integrated with the left posterior parietal cortex. These results highlight a mechanism that should be exploited in the training of patients with chronic visuospatial neglect.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Predicting post‐stroke pneumonia: the PANTHERIS score
ConclusionsThe PANTHERIS score is a simple scoring system for the prediction of SAP based on easy‐to‐assess parameters. By identifying patients at high risk, it may guide intense monitoring or prophylactic measures. This score needs to be validated within external datasets.

Functioning of long‐term survivors of first‐ever intracerebral hemorrhage
ConclusionsA large proportion of long‐term survivors of ICH in Southern Norway live functionally independent lives in their private homes. Dependency is linked to leukoaraiosis and female sex. Cognitive impairment is common and linked to lobar location of ICH.

Clinical, familial, and neuroimaging features of CADASIL‐like patients
ConclusionsOur experience highlights the growing number of patients presenting with a high suspicion of a cerebral small vessel disease with an autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance and a phenotype closely similar to that of CADASIL but without NOTCH3 mutations. This group remains to be characterized from the genetic point of view. The role of other genes or NOTCH3 alterations on exons other than 2‐23 or introns has to be further assessed.

Impact of somatic comorbidities on quality of life of patients living with epilepsy in Sagamu, Nigeria
ConclusionSomatic comorbidity is prevalent in this population with significant impact on their quality of life. We emphasize the need to screen for and reduce the numbers of somatic comorbidities in PWE as this can improve their quality of life.

Arterial stiffness as a risk factor for cerebral aneurysm
ConclusionsThe baPWV was associated with intracranial saccular aneurysms even after adjustment of hypertension and smoking. Assessment of the baPWV may aid the evaluation of the intracranial saccular aneurysm and the development of strategies for screening patients with intracranial saccular aneurysms.

Strokes in the anterior circulation: comparison between bridging and intravenous thrombolysis
ConclusionsOur results suggest that patients treated with a bridging approach were more likely to have minimal or no deficit at all at 3 months as compared to the IV treated group.
