Brain MRI correlations with disease burden and biomarkers in Fabry disease
ConclusionBrain MRI revealed progressive lacunar infarctions, white matter hyperintensities, and decreased brain volume in patients with Fabry disease. Brain MRI lesions were closely related to onset-age; disease duration, severity, burden; and plasma  Lyso-Gb3. However, they were not associated with sex, α-galactosidase A activity, orGLA mutation type.

Dynamic changes of the direction and angle of radiographic ocular lateral deviation in patients with lateropulsion after stroke onset
ConclusionSerial changes in rOLD findings after stroke onset are different according to the responsible lesion. The direction of rOLD in most patients is in accordance with vertical perception after the acute stage of stroke.

Exome-based gene panel analysis in a cohort of acute juvenile ischemic stroke patients:relevance of NOTCH3 and GLA variants
ConclusionGenetic screening for Fabry ’s disease in cardioembolic and lacunar stroke as well as CADASIL in lacunar stroke might be beneficial in routine medical work-up of acute juvenile ischemic stroke.

A rare cause of monogenic cerebral small vessel disease and stroke: Cathepsin A-related arteriopathy with strokes and leukoencephalopathy (CARASAL)
ConclusionsCARASAL should be considered in patients with early onset or severe cerebral small vessel disease, particularly where there are prominent symptoms or signs related to brainstem involvement, such as hearing dysfunction, tinnitus or dysphagia or where there is significant thalamic and brainstem involvement on imaging.

Cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging and its role in the investigation of stroke: an update
AbstractRecent advances in complementary diagnostic exams have helped to clarify stroke etiology, not only by helping to confirm established stroke causes but also by unveiling new possible stroke mechanisms. Etiological investigation for cardioembolic stroke has benefited in the last years from information provided by studies analysing serum biomarkers, heart rhythm monitoring and imaging methods like cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging. CMR has been particularly important for the characterization of possible new cardioembolic stroke mechanisms including atrial cardiomyopathy, silent myocardial infarction and cardiomyopathies.

Pre-procedural predictive factors of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage after thrombectomy in stroke
ConclusionsICH after MT was associated with several pre-procedural risk factors: prior use of antiplatelet therapies, high C-reactive protein and hyperglycemia at baseline, elevated mean arterial blood pressure, and low ASPECTS.

Mechanical thrombectomy for ischaemic stroke in the anterior circulation: off-hours effect
ConclusionOur study did not show worse outcomes in patients treated at off-hours. This result suggests that the off-hours effect reported in other studies can be minimized by a coordinated organisation of stroke care providing similar levels of care at off-hours.

Underlying embolic and pathologic differentiation by cerebral microbleeds in cryptogenic stroke
ConclusionsCMBs were common, and age, male sex, hypertension, chronic kidney disease, and cerebral white matter diseases were related to CMBs in cryptogenic stroke. Aortic complicated lesions were associated with deep and diffuse CMBs, while prior anticoagulant therapy was related to lobar CMBs.

Detailed phenotyping of posterior vs. anterior circulation ischemic stroke: a multi-center MRI study
ConclusionIschemic stroke subtypes differ between the two phenotypes. Diabetes and male sex have a stronger association with PCiS than ACiS. Definitive MRI-based PCiS diagnosis aids etiological investigation and contributes additional insights into specific risk factors and mechanisms of injury in PCiS.

White matter burden does not influence the outcome of mechanical thrombectomy
ConclusionsWMHs burden does not seem to influence clinical outcome and imaging parameters in patients treated by MT.

Stroke in supplementary motor area mimicking functional disorder: a case report
We report a 59-year-old man with previous history for myocardial infarction, referred to emergency room with an acute dense right-side hemiplegia, positive Hoover sign, asymmetrical Babinski responses and intermittent ability to move his arm in some specific reflex actions despite plegia. Since brain computed tomography scan was unremarkable we could not be sure whether his symptoms were organic or functional until a diffusion weighted imaging of magnetic resonance imaging elucidated the situation. To our knowledge, there is only one case report in the literature prior to ours, presenting a supplementary motor area stroke ...

Occurrence of cerebral small vessel disease at diagnosis of MPO-ANCA-associated vasculitis
ConclusionInflammatory events are associated with the occurrence of cerebral SVD before clinical diagnosis of MPO-ANCA-positive AAV. The patients may be continuously exposed to the risk of cerebral SVD after immunosuppressive therapy.

Moyamoya angiopathy: early postoperative course within 3 months after STA –MCA–bypass surgery in Europe—a retrospective analysis of 64 procedures
ConclusionRevasculating surgery is a safe procedure in Caucasian patients with Moyamoya angiopathy. The observed complications have a good prognosis.

Crossed aphasia following cerebral infarction in a right-handed patient with atypical cerebral language dominance
ConclusionThe findings suggest that the patient has right-sided cerebral language dominance, or that both hemispheres have linguistic functions. Not all patients show linguistic capabilities on the side opposite hand preference. The language dominance should be predicted by a combination of clinical manifestations and functional imaging techniques.
