Journal ArticleDOI
30 day results from the SPACE trial of stent-protected angioplasty versus carotid endarterectomy in symptomatic patients: a randomised non-inferiority trial.
Peter A. Ringleb,Jens-Rainer Allenberg,Hartmut Brückmann,Hans-Henning Eckstein,Gustav Fraedrich,Maximilian Hartmann,Michael G. Hennerici,Olav Jansen,Klein G,A. Kunze,Marx P,Kurt Niederkorn,Schmiedt W,Laszlo Solymosi,Robert Stingele,Hermann Zeumer,Werner Hacke +16 more
TL;DR: In this paper, Carotid endarterectomy is effective in stroke prevention for patients with severe symptomatic carotid-artery stenosis, and Stentation has been widely used as alternative treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Endoscopic surgery versus medical treatment for spontaneous intracerebral hematoma: a randomized study.
Ludwig M. Auer,Wolfgang Deinsberger,Kurt Niederkorn,G. Gell,Reinhold Kleinert,G. H. Schneider,Peter Holzer,Gertraude Bone,Michael Mokry,Eva Körner,G. Kleinert,Susanna Hanusch +11 more
TL;DR: The outcome of surgical patients with putaminal or thalamic hemorrhage was no better than for those with medical treatment; however, there was a trend toward better quality of survival and chance of survival in the operated group.
Journal ArticleDOI
White matter signal abnormalities in normal individuals: correlation with carotid ultrasonography, cerebral blood flow measurements, and cerebrovascular risk factors.
Franz Fazekas,Kurt Niederkorn,Reinhold Schmidt,Hans Offenbacher,S. Horner,G. Bertha,Helmut Lechner +6 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that a higher incidence of changes known to be associated with an increased risk for stroke exists in the presence of white matter lesions in normal elderly individuals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Criteria for an increased specificity of MRI interpretation in elderly subjects with suspected multiple sclerosis
Franz Fazekas,Hans Offenbacher,S Fuchs,R. Schmidt,Kurt Niederkorn,Susanna Horner,Helmut Lechner +6 more
TL;DR: Applying these criteria to the MRIs of elderly patients with suspected MS should significantly improve specificity over current quantitative criteria (at least three AIS≥3 mm) without significantly decreasing sensitivity.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Patients with ischaemic stroke 4·5-9 h from stroke onset or wake-up stroke with salvageable brain tissue who were treated with alteplase achieved better functional outcomes than did patients given placebo, and this increase in the rate of symptomatic intracerebral haemorrhage did not negate the overall net benefit of thrombolysis.
