Endovascular therapy after intravenous t-PA versus t-PA alone for stroke.
BACKGROUND Endovascular therapy is increasingly used after the administration of intravenous tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) for patients with moderate-to-severe acute ischemic stroke, but whether a combined approach is more effective than intravenous t-PA alone is uncertain. METHODS We randomly assigned eligible patients who had received intravenous t-PA within 3 hours after symptom onse...
متن کاملStent-retriever thrombectomy after intravenous t-PA vs. t-PA alone in stroke.
BACKGROUND Among patients with acute ischemic stroke due to occlusions in the proximal anterior intracranial circulation, less than 40% regain functional independence when treated with intravenous tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) alone. Thrombectomy with the use of a stent retriever, in addition to intravenous t-PA, increases reperfusion rates and may improve long-term functional outcome. ...
متن کاملIntravenous immunoglobulin therapy in kidney transplant recipients with de novo DSA: Results of an observational study
BACKGROUND Approximately 25% of kidney transplant recipients develop de novo anti-HLA donor-specific antibodies (dnDSA) leading to acute antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR) in 30% of patients. Preemptive therapeutic strategies are not available. METHODS We conducted a prospective observational study including 11 kidney transplant recipients. Inclusion criteria were dnDSA occurring within the f...
متن کاملComparison of the Diagnostic Utility of 4D-DSA with Conventional 2D- and 3D-DSA in the Diagnosis of Cerebrovascular Abnormalities.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE 4D-DSA is a time-resolved technique that allows viewing of a contrast bolus at any time and from any desired viewing angle. Our hypothesis was that the information content in a 4D-DSA reconstruction was essentially equivalent to that in a combination of 2D acquisitions and a 3D-DSA reconstruction. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty-six consecutive patients who had both 2D- an...
متن کاملMRI and DSA findings in popliteal artery entrapment syndrome.
PURPOSE To evaluate magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and digital subtraction angiography (DSA) findings in popliteal artery entrapment syndrome. MATERIALS AND METHODS Seven limbs of 6 patients (5 men and 1 woman; mean age, 36 +/- 12 years) with popliteal artery entrapment syndrome were evaluated retrospectively. Both MRI and DSA were performed on each affected limb. RESULTS MRI findings est...
