Increased Epilepsy Prevalence in Adults with 22q11 Deletion Syndrome (P1.236)
Conclusions:The prevalence of provoked seizures in adults with 22q11.2DS is higher than in the general population. Hypocalcemia continues to be risk factor for adults, but differently from children, adults with 22qDS are more exposed to psychotropic medications and are more vulnerable to seizures caused by them compared to the general population. These patients are also more likely to develop genetic generalized and focal epilepsy, structural epilepsy (due to malformation of cortical development, trauma, stroke). Further prospective studies are warranted to investigate how 22q11.2 microdeletion leads to an overall decrease...

Misdiagnosis of CADASIL: A single Medical Center experience (P1.251)
Conclusions:CADASIL is the most prevalent monogenic cerebral small-vessel arteriopathy. Despite wide availability of genetic testing, misdiagnosis and delay diagnosis are common. We encourage for enhanced awareness of CADASIL among patients with migraines with aura, recurrent TIAs or subcortical ischemic strokes, and mood disorder, in order to provide appropriate multidisciplinary treatment, psychological support and genetic counselingStudy Supported by: n/aDisclosure: Dr. Ortiz-Garcia has nothing to disclose.

A rare cause of stroke in young: PHACE syndrome (P1.253)
Conclusions:Neurocutaneous syndromes are typically diagnosed in childhood and can be a rare cause of stroke in young. Our patient suffered an ischemic stroke secondary to sequelae of undiagnosed PHACE syndrome. Early identification of neurocutaneous syndromes allows for proper surveillance, evaluation, and preventative education for development of complications.Disclosure: Dr. Fitzgerald has nothing to disclose.

Deficiency of adenosine deaminase 2: a recently described autoinflammatory disease with neurological manifestations (p1.254)
Conclusions:DAD2 involves a spectrum of neurological symptoms and MRI findings. Mutations at amino acids 154–204 of the CECR1 gene are more likely to cause neurological symptoms than mutations elsewhere in CECR1. A better understanding of these neurological manifestations will aid in earlier diagnosis, which can reduce morbidity, mortality, and unnecessary testing.Disclosure: Dr. Noll has nothing to disclose.

MELAS Syndrome: How Stroke-like are the Stroke episodes? (P1.255)
Conclusions:Patients with MELAS syndrome may present with recurrent strokes in the arterial territory rather than SLEs. Clinicians should entertain the possibility of a mitochondrial disease in young patients with cryptogenic stroke and pursue appropriate diagnostic evaluations and treatment.Disclosure: Dr. Liaw has nothing to disclose.

Circulating Microparticles are Associated with Visuospatial Ability in the Framingham Heart Study (P1.257)
Conclusions:An association was observed between circulating levels of platelet MPs and reduced performance on the Hooper Visual Organization Test, a measure sensitive to cerebrovascular disease. The results are hypothesis-generating and further research is needed to understand the potential role of MPs in cognitive dysfunction.Study Supported by:NHLBI (N01-HC-25195; HHSN268201500001I), NINDS (R01NS017950), NIA (T32-AG036697) and AHA (15GPSPG23770000).Disclosure: Dr. Aparicio has nothing to disclose.

D-Lactate and Intestinal Fatty-Acid Binding Protein are elevated in serum in patients with acute ischemic stroke (P1.258)
Conclusions:D-Lactate and IFABP were significantly elevated in patients with AIS, but concentrations were not associated with stroke severity. This provides, for the first time, indirect evidence of disruption of the intestinal barrier in patients with AIS.Disclosure: Dr. Camara-Lemarroy has nothing to disclose.

Relationship between admission serum bilirubin and severity of acute ischaemic stroke in a nigerian tertiary hospital (p1.259)
Conclusion:Patients with higher physiologic range of serum bilirubin had more severe stroke (higher NIHSS values), suggesting that higher bilirubin values at stroke onset might be a reflection of oxidative intensity.Disclosure: Dr. Ademiluyi has nothing to disclose.

Interleukin-37 is Elevated in Acute Ischemic Stroke (P1.260)
Conclusions:The study shows a rather stable elevation of IL-37 levels post-ischemic stroke, which if compared to available data from other studies, is 3–10 times elevated after acute ischemic stroke with an uptrend in the first few days. IL-37 plays some role in mediating post-stroke inflammation with significant rise in serum and urine IL- 37 levels suggesting a key role of this novel cytokine in post-stroke pathology.Disclosure: Dr. Bushnaq has nothing to disclose.

Increased Cysteinylated Albumin is Associated with More Favorable Outcomes in Ischemic Stroke Patients, A Reflection of Collateral Circulation? (P1.261)
Conclusions:Increasing levels of cysteinylated albumin were associated with more favorable discharge mRS and less mortality. Cysteinylated (oxidized) albumin may reflect the presence of collateral circulation in equilibrium with the peripheral circulation from where venous blood samples were obtained for this study.Disclosure: Dr. Bartt has nothing to disclose.

Purinoreceptors and VZV Vasculopathy (P1.263)
Conclusions:Overall, VZV infection caused a transient rise in extracellular ATP. Importantly, we found that aside from its known antiplatelet effects, P2Y12 antagonist clopidogrel also inhibits VZV infection, independent of downstream inhibition of glycoprotein IIB/IIIA, and may serve as an alternative antiviral therapy for VZV vasculopathy.Disclosure: Dr. Wyborny has nothing to disclose.
