Characteristics and outcome of patients with early complete neurological recovery after thrombolysis for acute ischemic stroke.
BACKGROUND Recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) is the only approved specific therapy for acute ischemic stroke. This study analyzes demographic and clinical characteristics of patients with early complete neurological recovery after thrombolysis. METHODS Data of 320 consecutive patients treated with rt-PA within 3 h of stroke onset at our facility between April 2006 and March 200...
متن کاملBrain edema predicts outcome after nonlacunar ischemic stroke.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE In malignant infarction, brain edema leads to secondary neurological deterioration and poor outcome. We sought to determine whether swelling is associated with outcome in smaller volume strokes. METHODS Two research cohorts of acute stroke subjects with serial brain MRI were analyzed. The categorical presence of swelling and infarct growth was assessed on diffusion-weig...
متن کاملAortic stiffness predicts functional outcome in patients after ischemic stroke.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Increased aortic stiffness (measured by carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity) and central augmentation index have been shown to independently predict cardiovascular events, including stroke. We studied whether pulse wave velocity and central augmentation index predict functional outcome after ischemic stroke. METHODS In a prospective study, we enrolled 99 patients with a...
متن کاملCan Early Ischemic Lesion Recurrence on Diffusion-Weighted MRI Affect Functional Outcome after Acute Ischemic Stroke?
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Ischemic lesion recurrence on diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI-LR) is a frequently observed phenomenon after acute ischemic stroke. However, no study has elucidated the impact of DWI-LR on functional outcome. METHODS Among a consecutive series of patients who presented with focal symptoms or signs compatible with stroke within 48 hours from the onset over a 50-month peri...
متن کاملEarly neurological deterioration during the acute phase as a predictor of long-term outcome after first-ever ischemic stroke
Early neurological deterioration (END) is associated with increased risk of functional disability and mortality. However, data are limited regarding the long-term risk of poor functional outcomes. Thus we explored the association between END and long-term outcomes in patients with acute ischemic stroke.A total of 1064 patients were enrolled with acute ischemic stroke who were consecutively admi...
