Exploring the relationship between embolic acute stroke distribution and supra-aortic vessel patency: key findings from an in vitro model study

open access: yesStroke and Vascular Neurology
Background We investigated differences in intracranial embolus distribution through communicating arteries in relation to supra-aortic vessel (SAV) patency.Methods For this experimental analysis, we created a silicone model of the extracranial and ...

A catastrophic confluence: Concurrent subarachnoid haemorrhage and acute mesenteric ischaemia

open access: yesSurgical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Acute mesenteric ischaemia (AMI) and subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) are life‐threatening emergencies with diametrically opposed treatment requirements regarding anticoagulation. This report describes a rare, complex case where both conditions occurred simultaneously, creating a significant therapeutic dilemma. Case presentation A 64‐

Managing atrial fibrillation in the global community: The European perspective. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Atrial fibrillation is a common, global problem, with great personal, economic and social burdens. As populations age it increases in prevalence and becomes another condition that requires careful chronic management to ensure its effects are minimised ...

Predictors of Brain Infarction in Pediatric Patients During Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
In 179 pediatric ECMO patients, brain infarction (BI) occurred in 28% and was linked to markedly higher 30‐day mortality. VA ECMO mode (vs. VV) and higher pre‐ECMO arterial lactate independently predicted BI, supporting standardized neuro‐monitoring and liberal early brain CT, especially for children on VA ECMO.

Patient-Specific Hemodynamic Simulation for Predicting Stroke Laterality in Cardiac Embolism [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Stroke
Background and Purpose Cardioembolic sources account for 20%–30% of acute ischemic strokes (AIS), often with high morbidity. Conventional imaging confirms etiology retrospectively but lacks insight into the dynamic behavior of embolic transport. We aimed

Subarachnoid Haemorrhage in Malta : Are outcomes adversely affected due to lack of a local neurovascular service? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Objective: This study was performed to assess the incidence, treatment and outcome of non-traumatic Subarachnoid Haemorrhage (SAH) in an island which does not offer a neurovascular service and to determine whether such limitation is associated with a ...

Antiepileptic drugs for the primary and secondary prevention of seizures after intracranial venous thrombosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
BACKGROUND: Intracranial venous thrombosis (ICVT) commonly presents with seizures in the acute period, and some people may develop recurrent seizures in the long term. The prophylactic use of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) for the management of post-ICVT

Validation of Aortic Blood Flow Simulations During Extracorporeal Circulation Using Phase Contrast Magnetic Resonance Imaging

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
This is the first study assessing in vivo blood flow profiles during extracorporeal circulation (ECC) scenarios. Magnetic resonance imaging data served for the calibration of computational fluid dynamics algorithms, enabling accurate replication of the hemodynamic conditions.
