Cerebral Infarction: Epidemiology, Classification, Mechanisms, Diagnosis, and Management

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2026.
Within minutes after ischemia onset, deprivation of oxygen and glucose leads to rapid ATP depletion, resulting in failure of Na+/K+‐ATPase activity and membrane depolarization. This ionic imbalance promotes uncontrolled synaptic release of glutamate and excessive activation of postsynaptic NMDA and AMPA receptors.

Non-stenotic Carotid Plaques in Embolic Stroke of Unknown Source

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2021
Embolic stroke of unknown source (ESUS) represents one in five ischemic strokes. Ipsilateral non-stenotic carotid plaques are identified in 40% of all ESUS.

Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy as a Key Feature of MRAS‐Related Noonan Syndrome: New Case and Comprehensive Literature Review

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, Volume 46, Issue 4, Page 581-588, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Noonan syndrome (NS) is a rare multisystemic condition among the RASopathy group, characterized by a broad phenotypic spectrum and genetic variability. It results from pathogenic variants in genes regulating the RAS/MAPK pathway, affecting cell proliferation and differentiation.

Relationship between left atrial volume and ischemic stroke subtype

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, 2019
Objective Atrial cardiopathy without atrial fibrillation (AF) may be a potential cardiac source of embolic strokes of undetermined source (ESUS). Atrial volume is a feature of atrial cardiopathy, but the relationship between atrial volume and ESUS ...

Prevalence and Overlap of Potential Embolic Sources in Patients With Embolic Stroke of Undetermined Source

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2019
Background We aimed to assess the prevalence and degree of overlap of potential embolic sources (PES) in patients with embolic stroke of undetermined source (ESUS).

Oral anticoagulation in elderly patiens as secondary prevention of cardioembolic strokes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background: Stroke incidence increases with age. Atrial fibrillation (AF) is an important risk factor for ischemic stroke and its incidence also increases with age. However oral anticoagulant therapy (OAT) tends to be underused in the elderly population.

Prohormones in the early diagnosis of cardiac syncope [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Background--The early detection of cardiac syncope is challenging. We aimed to evaluate the diagnostic value of 4 novel prohormones, quantifying different neurohumoral pathways, possibly involved in the pathophysiological features of cardiac syncope ...
