Coma and Stroke Following Surgical Treatment of Unruptured Intracranial Aneurysm: An American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program Study
A large national surgical registry was used to establish national benchmarks and associated predictors of major neurologic complications (i.e., coma and stroke) after surgical clipping of unruptured intracranial aneurysms.

Modified Rankin Scale and short-term outcome in cranial neurosurgery -a prospective and unselected cohort study
The modified Rankin Scale (mRS) was developed to monitor functional recovery after stroke, but nowadays it is a treatment outcome measure in elective neurosurgery. Our objective was to study how mRS changes associate with short-term postoperative outcome.

Modified Rankin Scale and Short-Term Outcome in Cranial Neurosurgery: A Prospective and Unselected Cohort Study
The modified Rankin Scale (mRS) was developed to monitor functional recovery after stroke, but nowadays it is a treatment outcome measure in elective neurosurgery. Our objective was to study how mRS changes associate with short-term postoperative outcome.

Every 3 seconds, someone in the United States needs blood, and it is estimated that 1 in 20 Americans will receive a transfusion at some point in their lives. This demand for blood will increase further as the population ages, as>40% of all donated blood currently is used in people>65 years old. In addition, an increasing number of individuals take oral anticoagulants (OACs) and antiplatelet agents for cardiac reasons (e.g., atrial fibrillation or valvular disease), for stroke prevention, or for management of venous thromboembolism.

Embolic stroke: a rare but probably real cause of aneurysmal-like subarachnoid hemorrhage
Ischemic stroke is being increasingly recognized as a possible cause of spontaneous isolated convexity subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). However, it is a much less established etiology of cisternal, aneurysmal-like SAH. Only 3 case reports of concomitant cisternal SAH and perforator infarcts exist in the literature, raising the possibility of perforating artery rupture as a potential mechanism. In contrast, embolic stroke is not recognized as an etiology of aneurysmal-like SAH.

Importance of Developing Stroke Systems of Care to Improve Access to Endovascular Therapies
Stroke is a significant cause of mortality and morbidly worldwide. Approximately 62,000 Canadians experience stroke each year. It is a leading cause of long-term disability and the third leading cause of death.1 Stroke systems of care exist to promote optimal treatment and effective use of health care resources. Rather than operating in isolation, integrated stroke systems result in patients who receive evidenced-based care by ensuring they are taken to the correct hospital that can provide appropriate stroke therapy.

Indirect revascularization for non-moyamoya anterior circulation arterial steno-occlusion: clinical features, surgical treatment, and medium-term outcomes in adults
Symptomatic anterior arterial steno-occlusion is often associated with neurofunctional deficits and/or a high risk of recurrent stroke. Although both medical and endovascular treatments are useful and suitable, few studies have investigated the continued use of indirect encephaloduroarteriosynangiosis (EDAS) bypass in non-moyamoya ischemic patients. Herein, the authors retrospectively investigate clinical features, surgical treatments, and medium-term outcomes of indirect revascularization for non-moyamoya patients with anterior circulation arterial steno-occlusion in China.

Indirect Revascularization for Non–Moyamoya Disease Anterior Circulation Arterial Steno-occlusion: Clinical Features, Surgical Treatment, and Medium-Term Outcomes in Adults
Symptomatic anterior arterial steno-occlusion is often associated with neurofunctional deficits or a high risk of recurrent stroke or both. Although both medical and endovascular treatments are useful and suitable, few studies have investigated the continued use of indirect encephaloduroarteriosynangiosis (EDAS) bypass in patients with non–moyamoya disease ischemia. We retrospectively investigated clinical features, surgical treatments, and medium-term outcomes of indirect revascularization for patients with non–moyamoya disease anterior circulation arterial steno-occlusion in China.

4′-O-β-D-Glucosyl-5-O-Methylvisamminol, A Natural Histone H3 Phosphorylation Epigenetic Suppressor, Exerts a Neuroprotective Effect Through PI3K/Akt Signaling Pathway on Focal Cerebral Ischemia in Rats
A bursting inflammation has been observed that compromises neurologic function in patients who experience stroke. We sought to examine the neuroprotective efficacy of 4′-O-β-D-glucosyl-5-O-methylvisamminol (OGOMV), a novel histone H3 phosphorylation epigenetic suppressor) in a transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAO).

Restenosis After Carotid Endarterectomy: Insight into risk factors and modification of postoperative management
Restenosis after carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is a potential complication after surgery for carotid stenosis. Stroke after CEA is a debilitating complication secondary to restenosis and modification of postoperative care may be necessary to decrease incidence of postoperative stroke after CEA. We sought to identify clinical and patient factors that are associated with this complication.
