BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Very early mobilization (VEM) is considered to contribute to the beneficial effects of stroke units, but there are uncertainties regarding the optimal time to start mobilization. We hypothesized that VEM within 24 hours after admittance to the hospital would reduce poor outcome 3 months poststroke compared with mobilization between 24 and 48 hours. METHODS We conducted ...
BACKGROUND Occlusions of the M2 segment of the middle cerebral artery may cause significant clinical effects, especially when occurring in the dominant cerebral hemisphere, yet endovascular treatment of these lesions remains controversial. OBJECTIVE To examine the safety and efficacy of endovascular treatment of M2 occlusions at our institution. METHODS We retrospectively examined radiograp...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Thrombolysis improves outcome of patients with acute ischemic stroke, but it is unknown whether thrombolysis has a measurable effect on long-term outcome in a defined population. METHODS We prospectively assessed demographic data, management, and outcome of acute ischemic stroke patients admitted within 48 hours to 18 primary care hospitals of the canton of Bern (969 29...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Alberta Stroke Programme Early CT Score (ASPECTS) is widely used for assessment of early ischemic changes in acute stroke. We hypothesized that CT angiography source image (CTA-SI) ASPECTS correlates better with baseline National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score, final ASPECTS and neurological outcomes when compared with noncontrast CT ASPECTS. METHODS We studied...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Previous studies reported Fabry disease in 0% to 4% of young patients with cryptogenic ischemic stroke (IS). We sought to determine the prevalence of Fabry and outcomes among young Canadians with cryptogenic IS or transient ischemic attack (TIA). METHODS We prospectively enrolled individuals aged 18 to 55 with IS or speech or motor TIA, and no cause identified despite p...
Body fluid biomarkers of central nervous system damage may help improve the prognostic and diagnostic accuracy in ischemic stroke. We studied 53 patients. Stroke severity and outcome was rated using the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale and modified Rankin scale. Ferritin, S100B, and NfH were measured in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and serum. Infarct volume was calculated from T2W images...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The ischemic stroke population is heterogeneous. Even in balanced randomized trials, patient heterogeneity biases estimates of the treatment effect toward no effect when dichotomous end points are used. Risk adjustment statistically addresses some of the heterogeneity and can reduce bias in the treatment effect estimate. The purpose of this study was to estimate the treat...
Introduction: Admission of patients with severe National Institutes of health stroke scale (NIHSS Score>16) or moderate (NIHSS 8 through 16) acute stroks is different. Taking care of stroke patients admitted in stroke unit care (SCU) is costly. In comparison with admission in general neurology ward, we assessed the outcome of such patients based on stroke care unit (SCU) versus general neurol...
T he timely article by Fonarow and colleagues in this issue of JAHA reports the findings from the largest study to date on the relation of the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score with 30-day mortality rate in patients hospitalized for acute ischemic stroke.1 Prior smaller, largely single center, studies have reported similar results but this work used the largest data set t...
