Acute imaging does not improve ASTRAL score's accuracy despite having a prognostic value
(2014)Background The ASTRAL score was recently shown to reliably predict three-month functional outcome in patients with acute ischemic stroke. Aim The study aims to investigate whether information from multimodal imaging increases ... -
Anemia on admission predicts short- and long-term outcomes in patients with acute ischemic stroke
(2015)BackgroundIt is still debatable whether anemia predicts stroke outcome. AimTo describe the characteristics of patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) and anemia and identify whether hemoglobin status on admission is a ... -
Ankle-brachial index long-term outcome after first-ever ischaemic stroke
(2013)Background and purposeAnkle-brachial blood pressure index (ABI) is a clinical tool to identify the presence of peripheral artery disease. There is a scarcity of data associating ABI with long-term outcome in patients with ... -
Aseptic meningoencephalitis mimicking transient ischaemic attacks
(2013)Purpose To highlight meningoencephalitis as a transient ischaemic attack (TIA) mimic and suggest clinical clues for differential diagnosis. Methods This was an observational study of consecutively admitted patients over a ... -
Association of ischaemic stroke subtype with long-term cardiovascular events
(2014)Background and purpose: There is no strong evidence that all ischaemic stroke types are associated with high cardiovascular risk. Our aim was to investigate whether all ischaemic stroke types are associated with high ... -
ASTRAL Score Predicts 5-Year Dependence and Mortality in Acute Ischemic Stroke
(2013)Background and Purpose-The ASTRAL score was externally validated showing remarkable consistency on 3-month outcome prognosis in patients with acute ischemic stroke. The present study aimed to evaluate ASTRAL score's ... -
CHADS(2), CHA(2)DS(2)-VASc, and long-term stroke outcome in patients without atrial fibrillation
(2013)Objective: CHADS(2) and CHA(2)DS(2)-VASc scores are used to assess stroke risk in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). We investigated whether these scores are associated with stroke outcome in non-AF stroke patients. ... -
Embolic Strokes of Undetermined Source in the Athens Stroke Registry A Descriptive Analysis
(2015)Background and Purpose-A new clinical construct termed embolic stroke of undetermined source (ESUS) was recently introduced, but no such population has been described yet. Our aim is to provide a detailed descriptive ... -
Embolic Strokes of Undetermined Source in the Athens Stroke Registry An Outcome Analysis
(2015)Background and Purpose-Information about outcomes in Embolic Stroke of Undetermined Source (ESUS) patients is unavailable. This study provides a detailed analysis of outcomes of a large ESUS population. Methods-Data set ... -
European Stroke Organisation (ESO) guidelines for the management of temperature in patients with acute ischemic stroke
(2015)Background: Hyperthermia is a frequent complication in patients with acute ischemic stroke. On the other hand, therapeutically induced hypothermia has shown promising potential in animal models of focal cerebral ischemia. ... -
External validation of the ASTRAL score to predict 3-and 12-month functional outcome in the china national stroke registry
(2013)BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE-: The ASTRAL score was recently introduced as a prognostic tool for acute ischemic stroke. It predicts 3-month outcome reliably in both the derivation and the validation European cohorts. We aimed ... -
Intravenous insulin treatment in acute stroke: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
(2014)Introduction Poststroke hyperglycemia has been associated with unfavorable outcome. Several trials investigated the use of intravenous insulin to control hyperglycemia in acute stroke. This meta-analysis summarizes all ... -
Nonvitamin-K-Antagonist Oral Anticoagulants in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation and Previous Stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials
(2012)Background and Purpose-To assess whether the combined analysis of all phase III trials of nonvitamin-K-antagonist (non-VKA) oral anticoagulants in patients with atrial fibrillation and previous stroke or transient ischemic ... -
PFO closure vs. medical therapy in cryptogenic stroke or transient ischemic attack: A systematic review and meta-analysis
(2013)Background/objectives: This study aims to assess whether patent foramen ovale (PFO) closure is superior to medical therapy in preventing recurrence of cryptogenic ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA). Methods: ...
