Leukoaraiosis, intracerebral hemorrhage, and functional outcome after acute stroke thrombolysis
OBJECTIVE To perform a systematic review and pooled meta-analysis of published studies to assess whether the presence of leukoaraiosis on neuroimaging before treatment with thrombolysis (IV or intra-arterial) is associated with an increased risk of symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage (sICH) or poor functional outcome. METHODS We included studies of patients with acute ischemic stroke, treate...
متن کاملArterial Stiffness and Functional Outcome in Acute Ischemic Stroke
OBJECTIVE Arterial stiffness is a common change associated with aging and can be evaluated by measuring pulse wave velocity (PWV) between sites in the arterial tree, with the stiffer artery having the higher PWV. Arterial stiffness is associated with the risk of stroke in the general population and of fatal stroke in hypertensive patients. This study is to clarify whether PWV value predicts fun...
متن کاملHyperfibrinogenemia and functional outcome from acute ischemic stroke.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Epidemiological studies have found strong correlations between elevated plasma fibrinogen levels and both ischemic stroke incidence and stroke mortality. Little is known about the influence of fibrinogen levels on functional stroke outcome. METHODS Placebo data from the Stroke Treatment with Ancrod Trial (STAT) and European Stroke Treatment with Ancrod Trial (ESTAT) wer...

OBJECTIVES To evaluate the effects of gender, age, stroke localization, delirium severity, previous illnesses, associated medical complications on delirium outcome as well as, to determine effects of delirium on cognitive functioning one year after stroke. PATIENTS AND METHODS ...
متن کاملNeglect and aphasia in the acute phase as predictors of functional outcome 7 years after ischemic stroke.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Visuospatial inattention (VSI) and language impairment (LI) are often present early after stroke and associations with an unfavorable short-term functional outcome have been reported. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether a screening of VSI and LI as indicators of cortical symptoms early after stroke could predict long-term functional outcomes. METHODS A ...
