Admission thyroid function in relation to 90-day outcome of acute ischemic stroke
CONCLUSIONS: FT3 and TSH were negatively correlated with poor 90-day outcome in patients with AIS. Measurement of thyroid function on admission may provide independent prognostic information for 90-day outcome of AIS.PMID:37466064

The relationship of platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio with clinical outcome and final infarct core in acute ischemic stroke patients who have undergone endovascular therapy.
In this study we aimed to evaluate whether the PLR had a prognostic role in stroke patients undergoing thrombectomy and attempted to determine the effect that this ratio had on their survival. METHODS: Over a three-year period, demographic, clinical, and angiographic findings of 57 consecutive patients with acute ischemic stroke who underwent mechanical thrombectomy were evaluated. RESULTS: The patients were divided into two groups on the basis of a PLR level cut-off value of 145 based on receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Successful revascularization (mTICI 2b and 3) was achieved in 42 of 57 (73.7%) pa...

Impacts of Cigarette Smoking and Basilar Artery Flow on 1-year Recovery in 3-Month survivors of Intracranial Vertebrobasilar Artery Dissection-related Ischemic Stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest that adequate blood flow may be key to functional recovery after iVBDcaused PCS. Methods to improve blood flow and tissue perfusion after iVBD-caused PCS should be considered in the future clinical studies with the purpose to improve functional recovery in these patients.

Evaluation of functional outcome measured by modified Rankin scale in rtPA treated patients with acute ischemic stroke.
Authors: Georgievski-Brkic B, Savic M, Nikolic D, Nikcevic L, Vukicevic M, Kozic D Abstract Aim of our study was to assess functional outcome measured by modified Rankin scale (mRS) in patients that were treated with thrombolytic therapy-recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rtPA) after acute ischemic stroke. The study included 100 participants that were treated after acute ischemic stroke. Analyzed parameters included: gender; age groups: age 54 and below (Groupup to-54), 55-64 (Group55-64), 65-74 (Group65-74), and 75 and above (Group75-up); cerebral blood flow (CBF) and cerebral blood volume (CBV). Considerin...

Mechanical Thrombectomy with Solitaire Stent Retrieval for Acute Cardioembolic Stroke.
Conclusion: Some cases of cardioembolic stroke are resistant to MTSR and may need other treatment modalities. Careful interpretation of angiogram may be helpful to the decision. PMID: 29142621 [PubMed]

Total Small Vessel Disease Burden Predicts Functional Outcome in Patients With Acute Ischemic Stroke
Conclusion: Total SVD burden negatively associated with functional outcome at 3 months in patients with acute ischemic stroke and is superior to individual SVD feature in prediction of functional outcome. MRI-based assessment of total SVD burden is highly valuable in clinical management of stroke victims, and could help guide the allocation of resources to improve outcome.
