Hyperemia detection on arterial spin labeling is associated with final infarct volume in stroke post-endovascular therapy

Journal of Stroke and Cerebrovascular Diseases
Background and Purpose: Patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) treated with endovascular therapy (EVT) may develop hyperemia due to loss of relative cerebral blood flow (rCBF) autoregulation.

Edema progression in proximity to traumatic microbleeds: Evolution of cytotoxic and vasogenic edema on serial MRI

NeuroImage: Reports
Introduction: Although cerebral edema is common following traumatic brain injury (TBI), its formation and progression are poorly understood. This is especially true for the mild TBI population, who rarely undergo magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies,

Decrease of thyroid function after ischemic stroke is related to stroke severity

Thyroid Research, 2023
Background Thyroid hormones are of fundamental importance for brain function. While low triiodothyronine levels during acute ischemic stroke (AIS) are associated with worse clinical outcomes, dynamics of thyroid function after AIS remains unknown.

Depression in acute stroke

Journal of Psychiatry and Neuroscience, 2006
Objective: Depression is one of the most frequent neuropsychiatric disturbances in stroke patients. The clinical aspects and correlations of depression in the first days after acute stroke are less known. This study aimed to 1) assess the frequency of depression, 2) describe the profile of depression of stroke patients and 3) analyze the relation ...
