ABSTRACT Purpose To develop a vessel wall imaging (VWI)‐dedicated image restoration model enabling high‐resolution whole‐brain VWI in under 6 min. Methods A transformer‐based 2.5D model was trained in a supervised manner to enhance the image quality of CAIPIRINHA 2 × 2‐accelerated VWI acquisitions to a level comparable to that of GRAPPA twofold ...

Design of the "EAST" strategy in patients with symptomatic intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis. [PDF]
IntroductionThere is a high risk of stroke occurrence and recurrence in patients with intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (ICAS) despite aggressive medical therapy. Evolocumab is a monoclonal antibody which can inhibit proprotein convertase subtilisin-kexin type 9 (PCSK9) and effectively reduce the level of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol.

Contributions of vascular ageing to late‐onset Alzheimer's disease
Abstract Late‐onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD) is an age‐related disease that is strongly associated with vascular risk factors and cerebrovascular impairments. As such, changes in the vasculature with advancing age likely contribute to LOAD, but the mechanisms underlying these contributions remain incompletely understood.

ABSTRACT Objective High‐resolution MRI enables detailed assessment of intracranial vessel wall pathology in moyamoya vasculopathy. We aimed to classify adult moyamoya vasculopathy etiologies using high‐resolution MRI and to examine subtype‐specific associations between high‐resolution MRI features and ischemic infarction.

The Lupus Damage Index Revision Program: Results From the Item Generation and Reduction Phases
Objective A data‐driven and expert/patient consensus‐based project to develop a revised Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics (SLICC)/American College of Rheumatology (ACR) Damage Index (SDI) is under way supported by SLICC, ACR, and the Lupus Foundation of America. Our objective is to report the item generation and reduction phase results

ABSTRACT Background Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) was noninferior to alteplase in nondisabling minor stroke (NIHSS 0 to 5). Given potential benefit of DAPT in minor stroke with large artery atherosclerosis (LAA) and of alteplase in stroke with NIHSS 4–5, we hypothesize that neurological deficit and LAA may affect efficacy of DAPT versus alteplase in
