Acute ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion is responsible of cerebral blood flow impairment with a progressive and extensive ischemic process. Cerebral collateral circulation may preserve an ischemic penumbra that could recover providing timely reperfusion of the occluded vessel. Mechanical thrombectomy is the standard of care for anterior circulation …
After a right brain stroke, \>50% of Veterans experience problems with dressing, eating, self-care or steering their wheelchairs because their ability to move, orient, and respond toward the left side is limited: spatial neglect. Spatial neglect prevents them from functioning independently, and their needs in the hospital and at home …
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of these factors and stroke itself on osteoporosis developing after stroke. Thus, the expected benefit of the study is to contribute to the identification and determination of the need for treatment in high-risk patients through further studies. There are no …
Stroke is a common neurological disorder resulting from acute focal damage to the central nervous system due to vascular events such as cerebral infarction, intracerebral hemorrhage, or subarachnoid hemorrhage. It represents one of the leading causes of mortality and long-term disability in adults, with approximately 85 % of cases being …
Stroke leads to lasting problems in using the upper limb (UL) for everyday life activities. While rehabilitation programs depend on motor learning, UL recovery is less than ideal. Implicit learning is thought to lead to better outcomes than explicit learning. Cognitive factors (e.g., memory, attention, perception), essential to implicit motor …
Stroke remains one of the leading causes of mortality and disability worldwide. Between 30% and 40% of patients who have had an acute cerebral hemorrhage, develop unilateral spatial neglect syndrome (USN). USN is observed in 24% of patients with left-hemispheric stroke and 45% of patients with right-hemispheric lesions in the …
Socioeconomically disadvantaged populations with multiple chronic conditions have high rates of nonadherence to essential chronic disease medications after hospital discharge. Medication nonadherence after hospital discharge is significantly associated with increased mortality and higher rates of readmissions and costs among these patients. Major patient-reported barriers to essential medication use after hospital …
The relationship between the intestinal microecology and stroke has become a research hotspot in neurology field today. Maintaining the balance of the intestinal microbiota are expected to bring new breakthroughs for prevention and treatment of stroke. In recent years, stroke in young adults has an increasing incidence and a considerable …
Annually 100,000 strokes occur, placing stroke as the largest cause of disability in the UK. 90% of strokes are preventable, leading to national focus on programmes including "The National Stroke Programme" to act on preventing, treating, and improving post-stroke care. Importantly, over 25% of ischaemic stroke sufferers have previously had …
A scientific study is being done to test a special treatment for people who have spasticity or tight muscles. This treatment is called "stereotactic radiosurgery dorsal rhizotomy." It uses very accurate beams of radiation to target certain nerves in the back to help loosen up the muscles. In this study, …
