CRP in cerebrovascular stroke: Prognostic implications
Conclusion We concluded that the serum CRP level on admission can be used to predict severity and early outcome in ischemic but not in hemorrhagic stroke.

Epidemiologic features, risk factors, and outcome of sepsis in stroke patients treated on a neurologic intensive care unit
Conclusions: Sepsis seems to be a frequent complication of stroke patients requiring neurologic ICU treatment. Predictors of sepsis acquisition in our study were comorbidities and severity of deterioration of physiological status, but not stroke severity. A better understanding of risk factors is important for prevention and early recognition, whereas knowledge of outcome may help in prognosis prediction. Further studies are needed to clarify the optimal preventive treatment for these patients.

Deep regression neural networks for collateral imaging from dynamic susceptibility contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance perfusion in acute ischemic stroke
ConclusionThe results suggested that the proposed network performs equally well for both control and acute ischemic stroke groups. The proposed network could help automate the assessment of collateral status in an efficient and effective manner and improve the quality and yield of diagnosis of acute ischemic stroke. The follow-up study will entail the clinical evaluation of the collateral images that are generated by the proposed network.

Time is Brain - Preclinical Emergency Care for Acute Ischemic Stroke
Anasthesiol Intensivmed Notfallmed Schmerzther. 2021 Dec;56(11-12):746-759. doi: 10.1055/a-1330-5239. Epub 2021 Nov 24.ABSTRACTStroke is one of the most common neurological emergencies and requires rapid detection and treatment (time is brain). There is still insufficient knowledge about stroke warning signs. It is therefore of crucial importance that trained personnel in the preclinical setting recognize the relevant warning symptoms and collect the necessary information to quickly refer the patient to the appropriate additional care structure. For this purpose, training of the emergency medical services (EMS) and the cor...
