Reperfusion is a more accurate predictor of follow-up infarct volume than recanalization: a proof of concept using CT in acute ischemic stroke patients.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to compare recanalization and reperfusion in terms of their predictive value for imaging outcomes (follow-up infarct volume, infarct growth, salvaged penumbra) and clinical outcome in acute ischemic stroke patients. MATERIAL AND METHODS Twenty-two patients admitted within 6 hours of stroke onset were retrospectively included in this study. ...
متن کاملFinal infarct volume estimation on 1-week follow-up MR imaging is feasible and is dependent on recanalization status
PURPOSE We aim to characterize infarct volume evolution within the first month post-ischemic stroke and to determine the effect of recanalization status on early infarct volume estimation. METHODS Ischemic stroke patients recruited for the MONITOR and VISION studies were retrospectively screened and patients who had infarcts on diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) at baseline and had at least two...
متن کاملFinal infarct volume is a stronger predictor of outcome than recanalization in patients with proximal middle cerebral artery occlusion treated with endovascular therapy.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The rationale for recanalization therapy in acute ischemic stroke is to preserve brain through penumbral salvage and thus improve clinical outcomes. We sought to determine the relationship between recanalization, clinical outcomes, and final infarct volumes in acute ischemic stroke patients presenting with middle cerebral artery occlusion who underwent endovascular therap...
متن کاملJacobi's method is more accurate than QR
We show that Jacobi's method (with a proper stopping criterion) computes small eigenvalues of symmetric positive de nite matrices with a uniformly better relative accuracy bound than QR, divide and conquer, traditional bisection, or any algorithm which rst involves tridiagonalizing the matrix. In fact, modulo an assumption based on extensive numerical tests, we show that Jacobi's method is opti...
متن کاملLeukoaraiosis more than dementia is a predictor of stroke recurrence.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE It has been suggested that poststroke dementia is associated with a higher risk of stroke recurrence. Leukoaraiosis, however, might be a confounding factor because it is a risk factor for stroke recurrence and cognitive decline. Our aim was to determine the influence of prestroke and poststroke dementia on the 3-year risk of stroke recurrence. METHODS We evaluated prest...
