Factors Related to Executive Dysfunction after Acute Infarct
AIM The aim of this study was to investigate the association of infarct location with post-stroke executive dysfunction. METHODS One hundred seventy-seven patients hospitalized with acute infarction were enrolled. General information and NIHSS score at admission were recorded. The infarct site was recorded from magnetic resonance T2-W1 and FLAIR images, and the extent of white matter disease ...
متن کامل[Cognitive dysfunction after cardiac surgery].
In spite of the progress in medicine post operative cognitive deficiency (POCD) remains an important clinical problem. Since the introduction of cardiac surgery there have been frequent reports of its adverse neurological outcomes. Recent technological advances have contributed to a lesser occurrence of clinically evident complications such as coma, stroke, epilepsy or blindness. This brought t...
متن کاملThe Effect of Pulsatility Index on Infarct Volume in Acute Lacunar Stroke
PURPOSE Lacunar stroke, in the context of small vessel disease, is a type of cerebral infarction caused by occlusion of a penetrating artery. Pulsatility index (PI) is an easily measurable parameter in Transcranial Doppler ultrasound (TCD) study. PI reflects distal cerebral vascular resistance and has been interpreted as a surrogate marker of small vessel disease. We hypothesized that an increa...
متن کاملMultimodal CT provides improved performance for lacunar infarct detection.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Lacunar infarcts account for approximately 25% of acute ischemic strokes. Compared with NCCT alone, the addition of CTP improves sensitivity for detection of infarcts overall. Our aim was to systematically evaluate the diagnostic benefit and interobserver reliability of an incremental CT protocol in lacunar infarction. MATERIALS AND METHODS Institutional review board ap...
متن کاملClinical Correlates of Infarct Shape and Volume in Lacunar Strokes
The volume of acute ischemic infarcts has been shown to correlate with stroke severity and functional outcomes in all subtypes of ischemic stroke. In patients with lacunar stroke, infarct size in conjunction with infarct location has been proposed to distinguish this subtype from other forms of subcortical ischemic stroke. Most lacunar infarcts are caused by occlusion of the penetrating small v...
