BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: CTP is increasingly used to assess eligibility for endovascular therapy (EVT) in patients with large vessel occlusions (LVO). There remain variability and inconsistencies between software packages for estimation of ischemic core. We aimed to use heterogenous data from four stroke centers to perform a comparative analysis for CTP-estimated ischemic core between RAPID (iSchemaView) and Olea (Olea Medical). METHODS: In this retrospective multicenter study, patients with anterior circulation LVO who underwent pretreatment CTP, successful EVT (defined TICI ≥ 2b), and follow-up MRI included...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Perihematomal edema (PHE) represents the secondary brain injury after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). However, neurobiological characteristics of post-ICH parenchymal injury other than PHE volume have not been fully characterized. Using intravoxel incoherent motion imaging (IVIM), we explored the clinical correlates of PHE diffusion and (micro)perfusion metrics in subacute ICH. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In 41 consecutive patients scanned 1-to-7 days after supratentorial ICH, we determined the mean diffusion (D), pseudo-diffusion (D*), and perfusion fraction (F) within manually segmented PHE...

OBJECTIVES: Left atrial enlargement (LAE) is a known risk factor for atrial fibrillation, a common cause of large vessel occlusion (LVO) leading to ischemic stroke. While robust cerebral collaterals protect penumbral tissue from infarction, the effect of structural heart disease on cerebral collaterals remains uncertain. This study aims to investigate the association between LAE and cerebral collaterals in patients with acute LVO stroke. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We conducted a retrospective study of consecutive patients with middle cerebral and/or internal carotid LVO who underwent endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) between 2012 to 2020...

OBJECTIVES: Tetramethylpyrazine (TEP) can protect the brain from ischemic damage, but it has defects such as short half-life, fast absorption, wide distribution, and rapid elimination, which limits its application. Exosomes (Exos) have the property of loading drugs and transporting signal substances. Here, we elucidated the effect of TEP-loaded bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (BMSC)-derived Exos (Exo-TEP) on cerebral ischemic injury. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The Exos were extracted by ultracentrifugation and TEP was loaded into the Exos by electroporation...

OBJECTIVE: Chronic cerebral hypoperfusion (CCH) can cause a series of pathophysiological processes, including neuronal autophagy and apoptosis. VEGF-A has been reported to affect angiogenesis and neurogenesis in many CNS diseases. However, its effects on neuronal autophagy and apoptosis, as well as the underlying mechanisms in CCH remain unclear. METHODS: To address these issues, the CCH model was established by permanent bilateral common carotid artery occlusion (2VO)...

OBJECTIVES: Cerebrospinal fluid hemoglobin has been positioned as a potential biomarker and drug target for aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage-related secondary brain injury (SAH-SBI). The maximum amount of hemoglobin, which may be released into the cerebrospinal fluid, is defined by the initial subarachnoid hematoma volume (ISHV). In patients without external ventricular or lumbar drain, there remains an unmet clinical need to predict the risk for SAH-SBI. The aim of this study was to explore automated segmentation of ISHV as a potential surrogate for cerebrospinal fluid hemoglobin to predict SAH-SBI...

OBJECTIVE: Our previous study found that ErbB4 gene expression was changed after oxygen-glucose deprivation/reperfusion (OGD/R). However, the exact role and mechanism of ErbB4 in brain ischemia are largely unknown. In this study, we explored the protective effects of ErbB4 and its possible mechanism after OGD/R. METHODS: Cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury model was established in vitro and in vivo. Cell viability, apoptosis, and ROS production were measured by MTT, TUNEL, and fluorescent probe 2', 7'-dichlorofluorescein diacetate (DCFH-DA)...

BACKGROUND: The term "spot sign" was coined by Wada et al in 2007 and thought to be due to ongoing arterial bleeding in primary intraparenchymal haemorrhage (IPH).1 Spot sign has also been described in the context of intraventricular haemorrhage (IVH).2 Over the years arterial spot signs have been found to correlate with intraparenchymal hematoma expansion, worse clinical outcomes and increased risk of surgical intervention.3 We are describing a unique instance of a spot sign in venous sinus thrombosis that initially misled the clinical diagnosis...
