MISTIE Hematoma Evacuation Improves Outcomes in Intracerebral Hemorrhage
The MISTIE procedure plus rtPA was associated with significantly decreased ICH volumes compared with the medical group.
Hemorrhagic Stroke
Magnesium Has No Effect on Cognitive Outcomes Following Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage
In the linear analysis, study investigators found no significant effect of magnesium on cognition.
Early Lactic Acidemia Common in Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage
Serum lactate at admission did not correlate with vasospasm or delayed cerebral ischemia development.
Early Neurological Deterioration in Intracranial Hemorrhage Linked to Worse Outcomes
One in 8 patients with ACI experience ultra-early neurological deterioration during ambulance transport and initial evaluation at the emergency department.
Combo Therapy With Probucol May Prevent Cardiovascular Events in Stroke Patients at Risk for ICH
A team of investigators sought to assess the efficacy and safety of cilostazol vs aspirin, both with and without probucol, a cholesterol-lowering agent, in Asian patients with ischemic stroke.
Cerebral Microbleeds as Biomarker for Hemorrhage Risk in Anticoagulated AFib
Investigators assessed the presence of cerebral microbleeds as a biomarker for identifying patients at increased risk for intracranial hemorrhage as a result of anticoagulation for atrial fibrillation.
Disparities for Risk of Recurrent Hemorrhagic Stroke Unexplained
Black and Hispanic patients are at higher risk for stroke recurrence than white patients.
Cerebral Microbleeds Do Not Predict 3-Month Death or Disability in Intracerebral Hemorrhage
Investigators performed a pre-planned secondary analysis of the open-label, randomized Antihypertensive Treatment of Acute Cerebral Hemorrhage 2 study, specifically on the magnetic resonance images obtained during the intensive blood pressure lowering portion of the trial.
Intracerebral Hemorrhage-Related Hospital Mortality Reduced With Prior NOAC Use
Outcomes in intracerebral hemorrhage are less severe in patients with prior NOAC use.
Risk Factors Have Varying Effects on Stroke Pathology
The results confirm that ischemic, hemorrhagic, and subarachnoid stroke have very different etiologies.
