Stroke burden and functional impacts in adults with sickle cell disease

open access: yesBritish Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Stroke was identified in 4.6% of 454 adults with sickle cell disease. Stroke occurred not only across HbSS/Sβ0 phenotypes but also HbSC/Sβ+ as well, challenging traditional assumptions. Stroke was associated with long‐term functional impairment, including cognitive deficits and higher disability scores.

Sex‐Specific Associations of Inflammatory Biomarkers With All‐Cause and Cardiovascular Mortality Across Glycaemic Status: A Prospective UK Biobank Study

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims To explore sex‐specific heterogeneity in the prognostic discrimination of inflammatory markers for mortality across different glycaemic states. Methods This prospective cohort study included 450 438 participants from the UK Biobank (median follow‐up: 15.3 years), stratified by sex and glycaemic status.

Evolution of cerebral revascularization techniques

open access: yesNeurosurgical Focus, 2008
✓As a leading cause of death and disability in patients across the world, stroke is a problem that plagues both neurosurgeons and neurologists alike. Whether a result of atherosclerosis, moyamoya disease, or a complication in the treatment of a complex intracranial aneurysm, cerebrovascular occlusion can have devastating effects on patients. For nearly

Risk Factors for Incident Carotid Artery Revascularization among Older Adults: The Cardiovascular Health Study

open access: yesCerebrovascular Diseases Extra, 2016
Background: Population-based risk factors for carotid artery revascularization are not known. We investigated the association between demographic and clinical characteristics and incident carotid artery revascularization in a cohort of older adults ...

The clinical and physiological profiles of kissing stents in endovascular reconstruction of aortoiliac occlusive disease

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aortoiliac occlusive disease affecting the abdominal aorta and iliac arteries is conventionally treated with open surgical repair and is the mainstay of treatment. Endovascular techniques have become a less invasive alternative, especially for high‐risk patients.

Bilateral dynamic cerebral autoregulation assessment during endovascular treatment in large‐vessel occlusion stroke

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Recanalization by endovascular treatment (EVT) is effective in acute ischaemic stroke caused by large‐vessel occlusion. Better understanding of the pathophysiology could possibly identify targets for improving peri‐procedural management and thereby patient outcome.

Acute myocardial infarction complicated by cardiogenic shock: an algorithm based ECMO program can improve clinical outcomes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Objective: Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in our institution resulted in near total mortality prior to the establishment of an algorithm-based program in July 2010. We hypothesized that an algorithm based ECMO program improves the outcome of

Intracranial Hemorrhage Due to Secondary Hypertension from Intracranial Large Vessel Occlusion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Simultaneous hemorrhagic and ischemic strokes have been previously reported in the literature. Typically, these occur in patients secondary to dialysis, cerebral amyloid angiopathy, or thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura.1,2,3 However, this is the unique

Protocol for electrophysiological monitoring of carotid endarterectomies. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Near zero stroke rates can be achieved in carotid endarterectomy (CEA) surgery with selective shunting and electrophysiological neuromonitoring. though false negative rates as high as 40% have been reported.
