Isolated, subtle, neurological abnormalities in neurologically and cognitively healthy aging subjects [PDF]
The aim of this study is to describe the frequency of isolated, subtle, neurological abnormalities (ISNAs) in a large population of neurologically and cognitively healthy subjects and to compare ISNAs to various types of MRI-detected cerebrovascular ...

Procalcitonin and midregional proatrial natriuretic peptide as biomarkers of subclinical cerebrovascular damage: the northern manhattan study [PDF]
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Chronic infections and cardiac dysfunction are risk factors for stroke. We hypothesized that blood biomarkers of infection (procalcitonin) and cardiac dysfunction (midregional proatrial natriuretic peptide [MR-proANP]), previously

Xanthine oxidase inhibition for the improvement of long-term outcomes following ischaemic stroke and transient ischaemic attack (XILO-FIST) - Protocol for a randomised double blind placebo-controlled clinical trial [PDF]
Background: Allopurinol, a xanthine oxidase inhibitor, reduced progression of carotid-intima media thickness and lowered blood pressure in a small clinical trial in people with ischaemic stroke. Xanthine oxidase inhibition for improvement of long-term

Imaging characteristics and treatment of a penetrating brain injury caused by an oropharyngeal foreign body in a dog [PDF]
A 4-year-old Border collie was presented with one episode of collapse, altered mentation, and a suspected pharyngeal stick injury. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography showed a linear foreign body penetrating the right oropharynx ...

Changes in the MRI brain picture associated with newly diagnosed asymptomatic arterial hypertension
ntroduction.Arterial hypertension (AH) is the major modified riskfactor for brain injury. Clarification of the brain changes and themechanisms of their development during the asymptomatic stagewill ensure better results in the prevention of AH ...
