The Diagnostic Value of Visual Evoked Potentials in Chronic Disorders of Consciousness

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective In chronic disorders of consciousness (DOCs), the distinction between vegetative state/unresponsive wakefulness syndrome (VS/UWS) and minimally conscious state (MCS) is as crucial as it is challenging. Evoked potentials (EPs) and event‐related potentials (ERPs) are helpful, but some limitations prevent their consistent use in the ...

Intermediate-Term Risk of Stroke Following Cardiac Procedures in a Nationally Representative Data Set. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
BACKGROUND: Studies on stroke risk following cardiac procedures addressed only perioperative and long-term risk following limited higher-risk procedures, were poorly generalizable, and often failed to stratify by stroke type. We calculated stroke risk in

The MSA Atrophy Index (MSA‐AI): An Imaging Marker for Diagnosis and Clinical Progression in Multiple System Atrophy

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Reliable biomarkers are essential for tracking disease progression and advancing treatments for multiple system atrophy (MSA). In this study, we propose the MSA Atrophy Index (MSA‐AI), a novel composite volumetric measure to distinguish MSA from related disorders and monitor disease progression. Methods Seventeen participants with an

The relation between questions indicating transient ischaemic attack and stroke in 20 years of follow up in men and women in the Renfrew/Paisley Study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
<b>STUDY OBJECTIVE</b> Transient ischaemic attack (TIA) is often a precursor to stroke, so identification of people experiencing TIA could assist in stroke prevention by indicating those at high risk of stroke who would benefit most from ...

Mechanical Thrombectomy for TRACE‐III‐Eligible Patients With Ischemic Stroke: A Multicenter Retrospective Study Compared to TRACE‐III and TIMELESS Trials

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The results of the TRACE‐III trial demonstrated that tenecteplase (TNK) might be comparable to TNK combined with mechanical thrombectomy (MT) for large vessel occlusion (LVO) stroke within 4.5 to 24 h of onset, as tested in the TIMELESS trial.

Stroke and Incontinence [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Urology, 1998
Background —Urinary incontinence in the acute stage of stroke is seen as a predictor of death, severe disability, and an important factor on hospital discharge destination. Therefore, it is an important measure of stroke severity that not only affects the lives of stroke survivors but also those of caregivers.
