TL;DR: The TRACK Registry results demonstrate the generalizability of the recent thrombectomy RCTs in real-world clinical practice and no differences in clinical and angiographic outcomes were shown between patients treated within the AHA/ASA guidelines and those treated outside the recommendations.

TL;DR: In acute stroke patients presenting with anterior circulation large vessel occlusion, use of a BGC with the Trevo stent retriever resulted in improved reperfusion, improved clinical outcome, and lower mortality.

TL;DR: The study showed that achieving complete recanalization with a single thrombectomy pass using the Trevo device was highly beneficial and the most common clinical factors that are used to determine eligibility for endovascular therapy, such as NIHSS severity, location of occlusion or patient age were not predictive of the ability to achieve FPE.

TL;DR: Well-controlled, randomized studies with larger sample sizes with close follow up are needed to provide a more accurate determination for placement of DBS for OCD.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors outline the unique contributing factors and complications that must be considered by clinicians in evaluating an oldest-old individual with cognitive complaints, and the evidence for management of these cognitive concerns is reviewed.
