Journal ArticleDOI

Wouter J. Schonewille,Christine A. C. Wijman,Patrik Michel,Christina Rueckert,Christian Weimar,Heinrich Mattle,Stefan T. Engelter,David Tanne,Keith W. Muir,Carlos A. Molina,Vincent Thijs,Heinrich Audebert,Thomas Pfefferkorn,Kristina Szabo,Perttu J. Lindsberg,Gabriel R. de Freitas,L. Jaap Kappelle,Ale Algra +17 more
TL;DR: The results do not support unequivocal superiority of IAT over IVT, and the efficacy of I AT versus IVT in patients with an acute BAO needs to be assessed in a randomised controlled trial.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reduced cerebrovascular CO(2) reactivity in CADASIL: A transcranial Doppler sonography study.
Thomas Pfefferkorn,Sebastian von Stuckrad-Barre,Jürgen Herzog,Thomas Gasser,Gerhard F. Hamann,Martin Dichgans +5 more
TL;DR: In CADASIL, there is a reduction of both CO2 reactivity and basal MCA MFV, which suggests functional impairment of cerebral vasoreactivity probably related to vascular smooth muscle cell dysfunction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microvascular Basal Lamina Injury after Experimental Focal Cerebral Ischemia and Reperfusion in the Rat
Gerhard F. Hamann,Martin Liebetrau,Helge K. Martens,Dorothe Burggraf,Christian U.A. Kloss,G. Bültemeier,Natalie Wunderlich,Gabriele Jäger,Thomas Pfefferkorn +8 more
TL;DR: For the first time, microvascular basal lamina damage, indicated by collagen type IV loss, is proven in rats by biochemical and morphometric analysis and these changes are comparable with those found in nonhuman primates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Early cranioplasty may improve outcome in neurological patients with decompressive craniectomy.
Andreas Bender,Sandrine Heulin,Stefan Röhrer,Jan-Hinnerk Mehrkens,Volkmar Heidecke,Andreas Straube,Thomas Pfefferkorn +6 more
TL;DR: Patients with decompressive craniectomy for management of intracranial hypertension may benefit from early cranioplasty, according to the results of a retrospective hospital database search.
Journal ArticleDOI
Noncontrast CT in deep cerebral venous thrombosis and sinus thrombosis: comparison of its diagnostic value for both entities.
Jennifer Linn,Thomas Pfefferkorn,K. Ivanicova,Stefanie Müller-Schunk,S. Hartz,Martin Wiesmann,Martin Dichgans,Hartmut Brückmann +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the value of non-contrast cranial CT (NCCT) in the diagnosis of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (SVT), and especially of deep venous throm bosis (DVT), as rare but important causes of stroke.
