Journal ArticleDOI

Thrombectomy 6 to 24 Hours after Stroke with a Mismatch between Deficit and Infarct.

TL;DR: Among patients with acute stroke who had last been known to be well 6 to 24 hours earlier and who had a mismatch between clinical deficit and infarct, outcomes for disability at 90 days were better with thrombectomy plus standard care than with standard care alone.
Journal ArticleDOI

Efficacy and safety of nerinetide for the treatment of acute ischaemic stroke (ESCAPE-NA1): a multicentre, double-blind, randomised controlled trial.

Michael D. Hill, +776 more
- 14 Mar 2020 - 
TL;DR: Nerinetide did not improve the proportion of patients achieving good clinical outcomes after endovascular thrombectomy compared with patients receiving placebo, and this trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02930018.
Journal ArticleDOI

Penumbral imaging and functional outcome in patients with anterior circulation ischaemic stroke treated with endovascular thrombectomy versus medical therapy: a meta-analysis of individual patient-level data

Bruce C.V. Campbell, +1296 more
- 01 Jan 2019 - 
TL;DR: Estimated ischaemic core volume was independently associated with functional independence and functional improvement but did not modify the treatment benefit of endovascular thrombectomy over standard medical therapy for improved functional outcome.
Journal ArticleDOI

Transcranial Optical Monitoring of Cerebrovascular Hemodynamics in Acute Stroke Patients

TL;DR: The utility of DCS and NIRS to measure effects of head-of-bed positioning at 30 degrees, 15 degrees, 0 degrees, -5 degrees and 0 degrees angles in patients with acute ischemic stroke affecting frontal cortex and in controls is explored.
Journal ArticleDOI

Is the ABCD score useful for risk stratification of patients with acute transient ischemic attack

TL;DR: Although the ABCD score has some predictive value, patients with a score <4 still have a substantial probability of having a high-risk cause of cerebral ischemia or radiographic evidence of acute infarction despite transient symptoms.
