A bidirectional fabric-based soft robotic glove for hand function assistance in patients with chronic stroke
Chronic stroke patients usually experience reduced hand functions, impeding their ability to perform activities of daily living (ADLs) independently. Additionally, improvements in hand functions by physical th...

Global trends and hotspots in research on acupuncture for stroke: a bibliometric and visualization analysis
This study aimed to characterize the global publications and analyze the trends of acupuncture for stroke in the past 40  years. We identified 1157 publications from the Web of Science Core Collection. The number of publications grew slowly in the first three decades from 1980 until it started to grow after 2010, with significant growth in 2011–2012 and 2019–2020. China, the USA, and South Korea are the top three countries in this field, and China has formed good internal cooperative relations. Early studies focused on the clinical efficacy of acupuncture for stroke. In the last five years, more emphasis has been plac...

Fatigue in stroke survivors: a 5-year follow-up of the Fall study of Gothenburg
In conclusion, half of the participants reported PSF 5 years after index stroke and higher body mass index was identified as a predictor. The findings from this study are important for healthcare professionals, for planning health-related efforts and rehabilitation of stroke survivors.ClinicalTrials.gov, Identifier NCT02264470.

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.

A typology of cerebral small vessel disease based on imaging markers
ConclusionThe study confirmed the existence of different SVD types with different relationships to stroke outcome. EPVS and WMH were identified as imaging features of presumably early progression. The number of microbleeds and WMH severity appear to be promising biomarkers for distinguishing clinical subgroups. Further understanding of SVD progression might require consideration of refined SVD features, e.g., for EPVS and type of lacunes.

Lower SBP Targets After Endovascular Therapy Do Not Meet Futility Criteria
WEDNESDAY, Sept. 20, 2023 -- For patients with acute ischemic stroke undergoing endovascular therapy, lower systolic blood pressure (SBP) targets do not meet prespecified criteria for futility, according to a study published in the Sept. 5 issue of...

Result of 48-Hour Approach to Symptomatic Carotid Lesions in Patients With Stable Neurologic Examinations
Timing of treatment for symptomatic carotid disease has a controversial history with current guidelines recommending carotid surgery within 48  hours up to 2 weeks. Advocating for earlier carotid endarterectomy (CEA) after stroke (cerebrovascular accident [CVA]) or while a patient is having transient ischemic attacks (TIA) can potentially provide additional benefit to acute stroke patients resulting in improved stroke and death outcomes.

Impact of Race on Perioperative Outcomes Following Carotid Endarterectomy, Transfemoral Carotid Artery Stenting, and Transcarotid Artery Revascularization
Carotid artery revascularization is performed less frequently among Black and minority populations despite a higher incidence of stroke and greater cardiovascular and stroke risk profile. Limited data exists on what impact race has on outcomes following carotid interventions. We assessed racial differences in perioperative outcomes following carotid endarterectomy (CEA), transfemoral carotid artery stenting (tfCAS), and transcarotid artery revascularization (TCAR) using the Vascular Quality Initiative database.

Optimal management of carotid artery disease in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass
It is well-known that patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with coexisting carotid artery disease are at increased risk for perioperative stroke and death. The prevalence of carotid disease among patients undergoing CABG is 6% to 14%,1 and the risk of stroke following CABG increases from 3% for unilateral 50% to 99% stenosis to 5% for bilateral 50% to 99% stenoses and 10% for carotid occlusion.2 The risk of stroke and death are notably higher in patients with a history of transient ischemic attack (TIA)/stroke.

Fibromuscular dysplasia incidentally identified with computed tomography angiography
A 78-year-old woman had presented to the emergency room with altered mental status after the inadvertent consumption of a cannabis product. A stroke workup was initiated, including computed tomography angiography, which demonstrated severe tortuosity and a beaded appearance of her bilateral internal carotid arteries (A/Cover and B). The radiographic imaging findings, including alternating areas of bulging and narrowing, were consistent with fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD; C). The patient denied any history of transient ischemic attack, cerebrovascular accident, amaurosis fugax, or chronic kidney issues.

How to improve the description of superior mesenteric artery occlusions in acute mesenteric ischemia: A new computed tomography anatomic segmentation
Acute mesenteric ischemia (AMI) is an intestinal vascular emergency and one of the most severe ischemic syndromes. For stroke or myocardial infarction, arterial segmentations were proposed as early as 1938 and 1975, respectively. These segmentations - used on a daily basis - made it possible to harmonize practices and standardize neurovascular and coronary studies. There is no such standardization in AMI, but the vital and functional prognostic challenge is of the same order. In addition, the lack of a standardized description of superior mesenteric artery (SMA) lesions limits the interpretation and comparability of the studies.

Do the technical features of carotid eversion affect early restenosis? Design of a prospective multicenter study
Myointimal hyperplasia restenosis remains a concern following carotid endarterectomy. It occurs in about 6% of people. The 3-year rate of stroke after restenosis is 5.2%. Several risk factors for restenosis have been identified, such as smoking, hypertension, female gender, diabetes, dyslipidemia, or small carotid diameter. The primary objective of this prospective multicenter study was to determine whether the technical characteristics of the eversion technique influence the 1-year rate of restenosis.
