BOLD fMRI signal in stroke patients and its importance for prognosis in the subacute disease period – Preliminary report
ConclusionThere are differences observed in the activation areas of the cerebral cortex both in the stroke and non-stroke hemispheres. More than half of the patients with hemispheric stroke but all with good outcome showed cerebellar activation. There is probable positive correlation between the BOLD-signal size, young age, activation of supplementary motor area in stroke hemisphere and good functional status of patients in the subacute period of stroke.

The importance of atrial fibrillation and selected echocardiographic parameters for the effectiveness and safety of thrombolytic therapy in patients with stroke
ConclusionsThe presence of atrial fibrillation worsens the patient's prognosis in terms of the functional status and survival during the acute period of stroke in patients treated with intravenous thrombolysis.Higher NIHSS and CHA2DS2VASc scores and reduced EF in patients with stroke treated with thrombolysis are the predictors of unfavorable short-term prognosis.

Characteristics of hospitalizations due to acute stroke in the Silesian Province, Poland, between 2009 and 2015
ConclusionsThis comprehensive long-term analysis of the epidemiological situation related to AS in the industrial region of Poland should encourage further development of educational and treatment programmes for improvement in the health status of the population.

Diagnostics, treatment and secondary prevention of ischemic stroke in the Silesian Province, Poland between 2009 and 2015
ConclusionsThere has been observed a significant improvement in the quality of diagnosis and treatment of acute ischemic stroke during recent years. However, further actions are required both in terms of reperfusion treatment (thrombolysis and/or thrombectomy) and secondary prevention of stroke.

BOLD fMRI signal in stroke patients and its importance for prognosis in the subacute disease period – Preliminary report
Conclusion There are differences observed in the activation areas of the cerebral cortex both in the stroke and non-stroke hemispheres of the brain in stroke patients. More than half of the patients with hemispheric stroke but all with good outcome showed cerebellar activation. There was no clear correlation between the cortical activation pattern and the neurological status on the first day of stroke. There is probable positive correlation between the size of BOLD-signal in fMRI, young age, activation of supplementary motor area in stroke hemisphere and good functional status of patients in the subacute period of stroke.
