Teaching NeuroImages: Eagle syndrome: Cerebrovascular complications
A 70-year-old man developed acute onset of aphasia and right-sided hemiplegia in the setting of mild hypotension after hemodialysis. Brain MRI (figure, D and E) revealed diffusion restriction in the left anterior and middle cerebral artery territories. Brain CT (figure, A–C) was significant for an elongated styloid process causing mild compression of the left internal carotid artery. A comprehensive workup for stroke etiology was otherwise unremarkable.

High Stroke Volume Variation Is an Independent Predictor for Decreased Blood Pressure During Hemodialysis
Abstract It currently remains unclear whether stroke volume variation (SVV) before hemodialysis (HD) is an independent predictor of decreased blood pressure (BP) during HD. Fifty‐two patients were divided into two groups (Decreased BP during HD group: N = 10, Non‐decreased BP group: N = 42). Fractional shortening was lower, and mean arterial pressure (MAP) and SVV were higher in the Decreased BP during HD group. A multiple logistic regression analysis identified low fractional shortening, high MAP, and high SVV as independent predictors of decreased BP during HD. The areas under the ROC curves were as follows: 0.84...

Serpiginous cranial arterial calcification in uremia
A 65-year-old man with chronic kidney disease (CKD) on hemodialysis presented with a subcortical stroke. Unenhanced CT scan of the brain revealed widespread arterial calcification, notably involving the carotid siphons (figure 1) and external carotid artery branches (figure 2, A and B). Vascular calcification in CKD closely resembles ossification, and may involve the intima (as in atherosclerosis) or more commonly the media.1 Both patterns of calcification are associated with increased cardiovascular mortality, though no specific treatment has been shown to modify this risk.2 This example is particularly striking for the s...

Embolic Stroke due to Carotidynia Potentially Associated with Moving Carotid Artery Caused by Swallowing
A 63-year-old woman with end-stage renal disease on maintenance hemodialysis discontinued her medication for rheumatoid arthritis with prednisolone and azathioprine. One month later, she was admitted because of consciousness disturbance and right hemiparesis. Diffusion-weighted brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed multiple hyperintensities in her left frontal and parietal lobes. She also developed high fever and left neck pain. Carotid ultrasonography showed calcified plaque with vessel wall swelling at the bifurcation of the left common carotid artery (LCCA) and surrounding hypoechoic soft tissue.

Does renal function have incremental predictive value of stroke in atrial fibrillation?
It is well known that both atrial fibrillation (AF) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) are respectively independent predictors of stroke and systemic thromboembolism. A number of epidemiological and observational studies have shown that there are close relationships between AF and CKD [1 –3]. Indeed, the prevalence of AF increases from non-CKD to CKD stages of 1 to 2, 3 and 4 to 5 by 1.0%, 2.8%, 2.7%, and 4.2%, respectively [1], and the prevalence is 7% to 27% in patients with end-stage renal disease who are undergoing hemodialysis therapy [2].

Relation of Race, Apparent Disability, and Stroke Risk With Warfarin Prescribing for Atrial Fibrillation in Patients Receiving Maintenance Hemodialysis
We examined patterns of warfarin use, and associated factors, after AF diagnosis. This retrospective cohort analysis studied US Medicare patients receiving maintenance dialysis January 1, 2008-June 30, 2010. Demographics, comorbidity, and a durable medical equipment claims-based disability proxy score predicted warfarin prescription after AF diagnosis. The analysis included 8964 patients with non-valvular AF.

Chronic Kidney Disease Increases Cerebral Microbleeds in Mouse and Man
We examined the interaction between CKD and brain microhemorrhages (the neuropathological substrate of microbleeds) in mouse and cell culture models and studied progression of microbleed burden on serial brain imaging from humans.Mouse studies: Two CKD models were investigated: adenine-induced tubulointerstitial nephritis and surgical 5/6 nephrectomy.Cell culture studies: bEnd.3 mouse brain endothelial cells were grown to confluence, and monolayer integrity was measured after exposure to 5 –15% human uremic serum or increasing concentrations of urea.Human studies: Progression of brain microbleeds was evaluated on serial ...
