Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio as a Prognostic Tool in IVT-Treated Ischemic Stroke
Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio may be associated with the prognosis of patients with acute ischemic stroke following intravenous thrombolysis.
Predicting Neurologic Recovery After Cardiac Arrest With MRI Data
Study researchers aimed to test the prognostic value of brain MRI in addition to clinical and electrophysiologic data in patients after cardiac arrest.
Hypertensive Disorders of Pregnancy Associated With Increased Risk for Cardiovascular Disease in Women With SLE
Researchers studied the association between maternal hypertensive disorders and risk for cardiovascular outcomes in women with systemic lupus erythematosus.
MRI Screening for Deficits of Patients With Minor Acute Ischemic Stroke
A team of researchers sought to determine the IV tPA treatment rate of patients with minor acute ischemic stroke and compare the frequency of MRI targets by treatment stratification and clinical severity.
Elevated SBP Prior to OAC Initiation Linked to Hemorrhagic Stroke Risk in AF
This study suggests that lowering SBP <145 mmHg before oral anticoagulation initiation may decrease risk for hemorrhagic stroke in patients with hypertension and atrial fibrillation.
Brain Activity May Play Role in “Broken Heart Syndrome”
The researchers found that individuals with subsequent TTS had significantly higher baseline AmygA compared with those without TTS.
Infective Endocarditis With Subarachnoid Hemorrhage Linked to Higher Risk of Stroke, Mortality
During the AAN 2021 Virtual meeting, researchers presented their study on infective endocarditis and the rate of acute ischemic stroke in patients with and without subarachnoid hemorrhage.
Internuclear Ophthalmoplegia Lesion Localization in Patients With MS or Stroke
Study researchers sought address the lacking data on the spatial characteristics of lesions affecting the MLF in patients with MS or stroke, the most common pathophysiologies of internuclear ophthalmoplegia.
Hemorrhagic Stroke With COVID-19 Doubles Risk for In-Hospital Mortality
The researchers found that patients with ICH-COVID-19 had an adjusted odds ratio of 2.43 for death and an adjusted odds ratio of 0.55 for favorable discharge.
