Stroke [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Medicine, 2016
This chapter outlines diagnostic clues of importance in the history in stroke patients and how a stroke or transient ischemic attack may be distinguished from migraine, seizure, syncope, and amyloid spells. Disorders that mimic a stroke are described, as well as focal cortical and brainstem syndromes and the one-and-a-half syndrome. Features permitting

A potential biomarker of cognitive impairment: The olfactory dysfunction and its genes expression

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 9, Issue 12, Page 1884-1897, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Objective Accumulation evidence has reported that olfactory impairment may be an essential clinical marker and predictor of mild cognitive impairment or Alzheimer's disease. Method Participants were enrolled in the population‐based, prospective study in Fuxin county, Liaoning province, China between 2019 and 2021.

Vascular endothelial‐cadherin as a marker of endothelial injury in preclinical Alzheimer disease

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 9, Issue 12, Page 1926-1940, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Objective Endothelial dysfunction is an early and prevalent pathology in Alzheimer disease (AD). We here investigate the value of vascular endothelial‐cadherin (VEC) as a cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) marker of endothelial injury in preclinical AD.

Early‐onset Alzheimer's disease shows a distinct neuropsychological profile and more aggressive trajectories of cognitive decline than late‐onset

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 9, Issue 12, Page 1962-1973, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Objectives Early‐ and late‐onset Alzheimer's disease (EOAD and LOAD) share the same neuropathological traits but show distinct cognitive features. We aimed to explore baseline and longitudinal outcomes of global and domain‐specific cognitive function in a well characterized cohort of patients with a biomarker‐based diagnosis.

Stroke

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Physiotherapy, 2008
Stroke is the second most common cause of death and major cause of disability worldwide. Because of the ageing population, the burden will increase greatly during the next 20 years, especially in developing countries. Advances have occurred in the prevention and treatment of stroke during the past decade. For patients with acute stroke, management in a

Stroke

open access: yesSwiss Medical Forum ‒ Schweizerisches Medizin-Forum, 2020
Stroke is a major cause of death and disability globally. Diagnosis depends on clinical features and brain imaging to differentiate between ischaemic stroke and intracerebral haemorrhage. Non-contrast CT can exclude haemorrhage, but the addition of CT perfusion imaging and angiography allows a positive diagnosis of ischaemic stroke versus mimics and ...

When it matters that a ‘Stroke’ is not a stroke [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ Case Reports, 2015
An 81-year-old right-handed woman developed right-sided headache, focal motor seizures and left hemiparesis 10 days postendarterectomy for 80% stenosis of the right internal carotid artery. She was admitted to a local hospital. Her background history included newly diagnosed lung cancer, hypertension, hypercholesterolaemia, chronic obstructive airways ...

Polar Stroking: New Theory and Methods for Stroking Paths [PDF]

open access: yesACM Transactions on Graphics, Vol. 39, No. 4 (2020) 145:1-15, 2020
Stroking and filling are the two basic rendering operations on paths in vector graphics. The theory of filling a path is well-understood in terms of contour integrals and winding numbers, but when path rendering standards specify stroking, they resort to the analogy of painting pixels with a brush that traces the outline of the path.

MAMAF-Net: Motion-Aware and Multi-Attention Fusion Network for Stroke Diagnosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Stroke is a major cause of mortality and disability worldwide from which one in four people are in danger of incurring in their lifetime. The pre-hospital stroke assessment plays a vital role in identifying stroke patients accurately to accelerate further examination and treatment in hospitals.

A single session of exercise increases connectivity in sensorimotor-related brain networks: A resting-state fMRI study in young healthy adults

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2014
Habitual long term physical activity is known to have beneficial cognitive, structural and neuro-protective brain effects, but to date there is limited knowledge on whether a single session of exercise can alter the brain’s functional connectivity, as ...
