Haemodilution in acute stroke: results of the Italian haemodilution trial.

open access: yes, 1988
In a multicentre clinical trial 1267 patients with hemispheric stroke of duration 12 h or less and haematocrit of 35% or more were prospectively randomised to either haemodilution (by venesection and replacement of the same volume of dextran 40 in saline

Development of a computerised decision aid for thrombolysis in acute stroke care [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background - Thrombolytic treatment for acute ischaemic stroke improves prognosis, although there is a risk of bleeding complications leading to early death/severe disability. Benefit from thrombolysis is time dependent and treatment must be administered

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

open access: yesNeuroImage: 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,

Early recurrent ischemic stroke complicating intravenous thrombolysis for stroke: incidence and association with atrial fibrillation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
<p><b>Background and Purpose:</b> Mechanisms of early neurologic deterioration after treatment with intravenous, recombinant, tissue-type plasminogen activator (IV rt-PA) include symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage (SICH) and early ...

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.

Factors associated with intracerebral hemorrhage after thrombolytic therapy for ischemic stroke pooled analysis of placebo data from the Stroke-Acute Ischemic NXY Treatment (SAINT) I and SAINT II trials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
<p><b>Background and Purpose:</b> A number of factors have been associated with postthrombolysis intracerebral hemorrhage, but these have varied across studies.</p> <p><b>Methods:</b> We examined patients with

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

open access: yesThyroid 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.

Microbiome‐blood–brain barrier interactions in aging — mechanisms and therapeutic potential

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Aging reshapes the gut microbiome (↓SCFA‐producing commensals; ↑pro‐inflammatory outputs), shifting circulating metabolites (↓SCFAs; ↑LPS, ↑TMAO, ↑PAA) that act at the BBB to increase nonspecific transcytosis, alter transport, and promote astrocyte reactivity, heightening brain vulnerability.

Early outcomes of thrombolysis for acute ischaemic stroke in a South African tertiary care centre [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Includes abstract.Includes bibliographical references.Stroke is an important cause of death and disability in sub-Saharan Africa. Recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) thrombolysis is effective in treating acute ischaemic stroke, but may not be ...

Post‐recanalization administration of rapamycin improves functional outcome and reduces infarct size in a rat model of ischemic stroke

open access: yesNeuroprotection
Aim Despite advances in endovascular recanalization for ischemic stroke, many patients experience poor outcomes. Adjunct cerebroprotective therapies are needed to improve recovery.
