Imaging-based decision making in thrombolytic therapy for ischemic stroke: present status.

TL;DR: Information about the presence or absence of a vessel occlusion, whether by means of DU, CTA, or MRA, is essential before recombinant tissue plasminogen activator is given in the 3- to 6-hour time window.
Journal ArticleDOI

Extending thrombolysis to 4·5–9 h and wake-up stroke using perfusion imaging: a systematic review and meta-analysis of individual patient data

Bruce C.V. Campbell, +267 more
- 13 Jul 2019 - 
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.
Journal ArticleDOI

Leukocyte Count as an Independent Predictor of Recurrent Ischemic Events

TL;DR: Leukocyte counts and mainly neutrophil counts are independently associated with ischemic events in these high-risk populations, and an increase of leukocytes over baseline levels heralds a period of increased risk lasting about one week.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Standardized MRI Stroke Protocol: Comparison with CT in Hyperacute Intracerebral Hemorrhage

TL;DR: In this paper, the diagnostic accuracy of a standardized, multimodal MRI (mMRI) stroke protocol in the qualitative and quantitative assessment of hyperacute ICH (<6 hours was evaluated.
