Effect of Intravenous Thrombolysis on MRI Parameters and Functional Outcome in Acute Stroke <6 Hours

TL;DR: Multiparametric MRI delineates tissue at risk of infarction in AIS patients, which may be helpful for the selection of patients for tPA therapy, and delivers the rationale for a randomized, MR-based tPA trial.
Journal ArticleDOI

Decompressive surgery in space-occupying hemispheric infarction: results of an open, prospective trial.

TL;DR: Hemicraniotomy may improve survival in massive hemispheric stroke victims, decreasing mortality rates to < 35%, although some patients seem to benefit significantly.
Journal ArticleDOI

Intraventricular brain-derived neurotrophic factor reduces infarct size after focal cerebral ischemia in rats.

TL;DR: Results show that pretreatment with intraventricular BDNF reduces infarct size after focal cerebral ischemia in rats and support the hypothesis of a neuroprotective role for BDNF in stoke.
Journal ArticleDOI

World Stroke Organization (WSO): Global Stroke Fact Sheet 2022

TL;DR: This World Stroke Organisation (WSO) Global Stroke Fact Sheet 2022 provides the most updated information that can be used to inform communication with all internal and external stakeholders.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stroke treatment with alteplase given 3.0-4.5 h after onset of acute ischaemic stroke (ECASS III): additional outcomes and subgroup analysis of a randomised controlled trial

TL;DR: The results support the use of alteplase up to 4.5 h after the onset of stroke symptoms across a broad range of subgroups of patients who meet the requirements of the European product label but miss the approved treatment window of 0-3 h.
