Acute Vertebrobasilar Ischemic Stroke Due To Electric Injury
Electrical injuries are most commonly due to household accidents. Various factors determine the severity of electric injury, including type of current, amperage, voltage, tissue resistance, pathway of current and duration of contact with the body. Various types of neurological damage due to electrical injury have been described in literature. It may manifest as peripheral nerve injury, spinal cord damage, seizures, cerebellar ataxia, hypoxic encephalopathy and intracerebral hemorrhage. Acute ischemic stroke is an infrequent complication of electrical injury.

Resveratrol Neuroprotection in Stroke and Traumatic CNS injury
Publication date: Available online 12 August 2015 Source:Neurochemistry International Author(s): Mary Lopez, Robert J. Dempsey, Raghu Vemuganti Resveratrol, a stilbene formed in many plants in response to various stressors, elicits multiple beneficial effects in vertebrates. Particularly, resveratrol was shown to have therapeutic properties in cancer, atherosclerosis and neurodegeneration. Resveratrol-induced benefits are modulated by multiple synergistic pathways that control oxidative stress, inflammation and cell death. Despite the lack of a definitive mechanism, both in vivo and in vitro studies suggest that resve...

Cerebrovascular injury as a risk factor for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
Conclusions Cerebrovascular injury from a variety of causes, rather than the presence of AVM or the associated embolisation procedure per se, may be a risk factor for ALS within the context of a more complex multiple-hit model of pathogenesis.

A Multicenter Phase II Randomized Trial of a HIF-Prolyl Hydroxylase Inhibitor for Neuroprotection in High Risk Thoracic Aortic Repair (S7.008)
Conclusions: Perioperative GSK1278863 was associated with more clinical events and SAEs but this is potentially confounded by imbalanced surgical risk in this small study. Overall, neurologic complications were common in this high risk population and additional studies of neuroprotection are needed.Disclosure: Dr. Messe has received personal compensation for activities with GlaxoSmithKline as a consultant.

Research Articles A multidirectional gravity-assist algorithm that enhances locomotor control in patients with stroke or spinal cord injury
Gait recovery after neurological disorders requires remastering the interplay between body mechanics and gravitational forces. Despite the importance of gravity-dependent gait interactions and active participation for promoting this learning, these essential components of gait rehabilitation have received comparatively little attention. To address these issues, we developed an adaptive algorithm that personalizes multidirectional forces applied to the trunk based on patient-specific motor deficits. Implementation of this algorithm in a robotic interface reestablished gait dynamics during highly participative locomotion wit...
