Evaluation of vasomotor reactivity by transcranial Doppler and acetazolamide test before and after extracranial-intracranial bypass in patients with internal carotid artery occlusion.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The aim of this trial was to evaluate the effectiveness of extracranial-intracranial bypass with respect to vasomotor reactivity in patients with internal carotid artery occlusions and absent vasomotor reactivity, comparing them with a control group treated conservatively. METHODS To test vasomotor reactivity in 104 patients with unilateral occlusion of the internal car...

Evaluation of vasomotor reactivity by transcranial Doppler sonography in patients with acute stroke who have symptomatic intracranial and extracranial stenosis.

OBJECTIVE In patients with large artery disease, determining the cerebral hemodynamic state and following its alterations may be a good marker for predicting long-term outcome. The aim of our study was to compare the changes in vasomotor reactivity (VMR) of patients with symptomatic intracranial and extracranial artery stenosis. We also examined whether VMR after stroke influences the long-term...

Influence of acetazolamide and CO2 on extracranial flow volume and intracranial blood flow velocity.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The vasomotor response can be tested by means of transcranial Doppler sonography. If a constant vessel diameter is assumed, the flow velocity changes will reflect blood flow volume changes. This hypothesis is difficult to verify. Simultaneous assessment of intracranial flow velocity and extracranial flow volume changes may solve this problem. METHODS We tested vasomotor...

Assessment of blood flow velocity and diameter of the middle cerebral artery during the acetazolamide provocation test by use of transcranial Doppler sonography and MR imaging.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Our purpose was to show changes in the diameter of the M1 segment of the middle cerebral artery (MCA) by using high-resolution MR imaging in patients with chronic internal carotid artery occlusion after IV administered acetazolamide challenge. Changes in blood flow velocity of the basal cerebral arteries are thought to correlate with changes of cerebral blood flow. Change...

Pravastatin improves cerebral vasomotor reactivity in patients with subcortical small-vessel disease.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Recent investigations have suggested an important role of statins in the prevention of stroke and dementia independent of their lipid-lowering properties. Using transcranial Doppler sonography (TCD), we examined acetazolamide reactivity as a marker of cerebral vasoreactivity in patients with subcortical small-vessel disease before and after pravastatin treatment. METHOD...
