Prevalence of Stroke and Diagnostic Performance of Emergency MRI in Acute Isolated Dizziness
ABSTRACT Objective Stroke is frequently misdiagnosed in patients presenting with acute isolated dizziness; the optimal imaging modality for this population remains debated. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of stroke among patients with isolated dizziness and to assess the diagnostic accuracy of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed ...

Interval training normalizes cCardiomyocyte function, diastolic Ca2+ control, and SR Ca2+ release synchronicity in a mouse model of diabetic cardiomyopathy [PDF]
In the present study we explored the mechanisms behind excitation-contraction (EC)-coupling defects in cardiomyocytes from mice with type-2 diabetes (db/db), and determined whether 13-weeks of aerobic interval training could restore cardiomyocyte Ca2 ...

Changes in Immune‐Inflammation Status and Acute Ischemic Stroke Prognosis in Prospective Cohort
ABSTRACT Background Inflammation is a critical risk factor for poor outcomes in cerebral infarction. Prior studies focused primarily on baseline inflammation status, neglecting dynamic longitudinal changes. We try to investigate the association between immune‐inflammation status alterations and stroke prognosis, and evaluated three systemic biomarkers'
