Systolic Blood Pressure and Orthostatic Hypotension Are Linked to Dementia
Systolic orthostatic hypotension and variability in systolic blood pressure postural changes may be associated with increased dementia risk.
Vascular Neurology
Black Patients Have Higher Incidence of Cerebral Venous Thrombosis
Black Americans have a higher incidence of cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) compared with other races.
Mental Stress-Induced Brain Activation Linked to Angina
Mental stress-induced inferior frontal lobe activation is associated with angina among patients with coronary artery disease.
Characteristics of Silent Cerebral Embolism During TAVR
Silent cerebral ischemic lesions develop in most patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement.
Medical Management Alone Better for Brain AV Malformations
Among patients with unruptured brain arteriovenous malformation, medical management alone is superior to its combination with interventional therapy for prevention of death or symptomatic stroke in the long term.
DOAC Plus Antiplatelet Redued Embolic Event Risk After Carotid Artery Stenting
Administration of DOAC in combination with an antiplatelet agent may reduce the risk for hemorrhagic and embolic events in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation following carotid artery stenting.
Acute Stroke Among Neuroimaging Findings in Patients With COVID-19
While neuroimaging is not frequently performed in patients with COVID-19, acute stroke is the most common COVID-19–related neuroimaging finding.
Chronic Pain May Increase Risk for Major Adverse Cardiac and Cerebrovascular Events
In addition to increased medical costs, chronic pain may result in long term consequences, including impaired activities of daily living, cognitive decline and depression.
Chronic Kidney Disease is Associated With Intracranial Atherosclerotic Disease
Researchers explore the association between reduced kidney function and kidney damage with intracranial atherosclerotic disease.
Benefits of Intense Antithrombotic Therapy in Lower Extremity Artery Disease
Patients with chronic lower extremity artery disease treated with a more vs less intensive antithrombotic therapeutic regimen were found to be at lower risk for limb amputation, stroke, and revascularization.
