Effects of computer-based therapy versus therapist-mediated therapy in stroke-related aphasia: Pilot non-inferiority study
CONCLUSIONS: The overall pattern of findings suggested computer-based intervention was not inferior to traditional therapist-based intervention for enhancing functional communication deficits in stroke-related aphasia during the acute phase of recovery. A follow-up, fully-powered clinical trial is needed to confirm the reliability of these results.PMID:34673449 | DOI:10.1016/j.jcomdis.2021.106158

Endovascular treatment of patients with acute ischemic stroke and tandem occlusion due to internal carotid artery dissection: A multicenter experience
CONCLUSION: AIS patients with CD-TO were mostly treated with the retrograde approach with lower number of attempts per-procedure but it offered similar recanalization rates compared with the antegrade approach. Emergent carotid artery stenting (CAS) proved to be safe for CD management but it does not influence 3-months patients' clinical outcomes.PMID:35699167 | DOI:10.1177/19714009221108673

Trunk Control Test as a main predictor of the modified Barthel Index score at discharge from intensive post-acute stroke rehabilitation: results from a multicentre Italian study
Despite advances in acute cerebrovascular disease treatment, stroke remains a catastrophic event causing a major public health burden, counting about 5 million deaths each year and 50% of persons surviving with chronic disability1. Intensive rehabilitation is recommended in patients with stroke in the post-acute phase2. Identifying early predictors of rehabilitation outcomes may provide support to clinical decision-making by determining patients at higher risk of low functional recovery for which targeted strategies may be implemented.

Subclinical ischemic events in patients undergoing carotid artery stent placement: comparison of proximal and distal protection techniques
Conclusions We found a relatively high rate of new ischemic lesions in patients undergoing CAS with cerebral protection. There was no difference in the proportion of patients with new lesions between patients treated using distal protection and those treated using proximal protection.

SMASH-U classification: a tool for aetiology-oriented management of patients with acute haemorrhagic stroke
AbstractIntracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) is responsible for disproportionately high morbidity and mortality rates. The most used ICH classification system is based on the anatomical site. We used SMASH-U, an aetiological based classification system for ICH by predefined criteria: structural vascular lesions (S), medication (M), amyloid angiopathy (A), systemic disease (S), hypertension (H), or undetermined (U). We aimed to correlate SMASH-U classification of our patients to the intra-hospital mortality rates. We performed a single centre retrospective study at the Santa Maria Della Misericordia Hospital, Perugia (Italy) inc...
