BeSt-LeS: Benchmarking Stroke Lesion Segmentation using Deep Supervision [PDF]
Brain stroke has become a significant burden on global health and thus we need remedies and prevention strategies to overcome this challenge. For this, the immediate identification of stroke and risk stratification is the primary task for clinicians. To aid expert clinicians, automated segmentation models are crucial.

Lower Hemoglobin Correlates with Larger Stroke Volumes in Acute Ischemic Stroke [PDF]
<i>Background:</i> Hemoglobin tetramers are the major oxygen-carrying molecules within the blood. We hypothesized that a lower hemoglobin level and its reduced oxygen-carrying capacity would associate with larger infarction in acute ischemic stroke patients. <i>Methods:</i> We studied 135 consecutive patients with acute ischemic

Therapeutic potential of the renin angiotensin system in ischaemic stroke [PDF]
The renin angiotensin system (RAS) consists of the systemic hormone system, critically involved in regulation and homeostasis of normal physiological functions [i.e.

Hypovolemia explains the reduced stroke volume at altitude [PDF]
During acute altitude exposure tachycardia increases cardiac output (Q) thus preserving systemic O2 delivery. Within days of acclimatization, however, Q normalizes following an unexplained reduction in stroke volume (SV). To investigate whether the altitude-mediated reduction in plasma volume (PV) and hence central blood volume (CBV) is the underlying ...

Direct angiotensin AT2 receptor stimulation using a novel AT2 receptor agonist, compound 21, evokes neuroprotection in conscious hypertensive rats [PDF]
Background: In this study, the neuroprotective effect of a novel nonpeptide AT2R agonist, C21, was examined in a conscious model of stroke to verify a class effect of AT2R agonists as neuroprotective agents.

Assessment of stroke volume variation
The specific interactions of the lungs and the cardiovascular system under mechanical ventilation cause cyclic variations of left ventricular stroke volume (SVV). Real-time measurement of SVV using arterial pulse contour analysis is useful to predict volume responsiveness and to monitor volume therapy in mechanically ventilated patients. In this study,

THE STROKE VOLUME IN JUVENILE BORDERLINE HYPERTENSION
Hemodynamic changes in supine and upright position and during exercise were studied in 144 men including 37 normal subjects and 107 patients with borderline hypertension. Borderline hypertensives were classified in 4 groups, according to the basal level of heart rate and stroke index. In the first two groups, stroke index was normal, but heart rate was

Finger extensor variability in TMS parameters among chronic stroke patients [PDF]
BACKGROUND: This study determined the reliability of topographic motor cortical maps and MEP characteristics in the extensor digitorum communis (EDC) evoked by single-pulse TMS among patients with chronic stroke. METHODS: Each of ten patients was studied
