Journal ArticleDOI

Clinical and instrumental evaluation of patients with ischemic stroke within the first six hours

TL;DR: The data indicate that early pathophysiological studies augment the clinical information and should be taken into account in the design and analysis of therapeutic trials of acute ischemic stroke.
Journal ArticleDOI

Progressing Neurological Deficit Secondary to Acute Ischemic Stroke: A Study on Predictability, Pathogenesis, and Prognosis

TL;DR: Early stroke deterioration is still an event that is difficult to predict; it is largely determined by cerebral edema following an arterial occlusion, as indicated by an early focal hypodensity and initial mass effect on the baseline CT scan.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hemorrhagic transformation of brain infarct: predictability in the first 5 hours from stroke onset and influence on clinical outcome.

TL;DR: HT of a brain infarct is a common event that occurs independently of anticoagulation and can be reliably predicted as early as 5 hours from stroke onset by the presence of focal hypodensity at CT.
Journal ArticleDOI

Circadian variation in the frequency of ischemic stroke.

TL;DR: The frequency of myocardial infarction and sudden death is increased between 6 AM and noon, and the identification of periods of high risk for vascular events may have important therapeutic implications, such as matching drug effects with vulnerability.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prognostic significance of admission levels of troponin I in patients with acute ischaemic stroke

TL;DR: Cardiac troponin I positivity on admission is an independent prognostic predictor in acute ischaemic stroke and whether further evaluation and treatment of cTnI positive patients can reduce cardiac morbidity and mortality should be the focus of future research.
