Abstract Background In China, the informed consent for thrombolysis in patients with AIS tends to be primarily signed by proxy decision-makers, generally for the family members of patients. The decision-making process is...

Abstract Background Eosinophilic fasciitis is a rare connective tissue disorder characterized by fascial inflammation and eosinophil infiltration. Thromboembolic complications in eosinophilic fasciitis are uncommon and p...

Abstract Background and purpose Claudin-5 plays a crucial role in maintaining blood-brain barrier (BBB) integrity through endothelial tight junction formation. Alternative splicing of claudin-5 within the microvascular e...

Abstract This study analyzes the two‐dimensional speed profiles of 107 stepped leaders and 93 dart leaders recorded by high‐speed cameras in Utah (USA), together with data from lightning location system. The results ...

While stroke awareness tools are available in English and Spanish, none specifically serve the substantial Haitian population in the United States. To fill this gap, the Florida Stroke Registry (FSR) Education Core colla...

Abstract Ischemic stroke presents a dual therapeutic challenge, involving dynamic and compartmentalized pathology in both the peripheral immune system and the central nervous system. Departing from conventional holistic ...

Abstract Background Ethnic disparities in ischemic stroke are substantial and differences in exposure to air pollution have been demonstrated as well. However, the role of air pollution in mediating ethnic disparities in...

Background Technology-based gait rehabilitation after stroke is expanding, however the extent to which interventions embody person-centred care remains unclear. Aims The objective of this review is to explore the extent ...

Abstract Intrinsic capacity is a concept established by the World Health Organization (WHO). The concept aims to represent the total of a person’s physical and mental abilities, measured across five domains: cognition,...

Background Acute ischaemic stroke often leads to significant disability and mortality. Secondary brain injury caused by post-stroke immune and inflammatory responses worsens outcomes.Aim To assess the efficacy and safety...

Abstract BackgroundCardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) is widely used across various cardiac conditions and systematically assesses cardiac anatomical structures and functional dynamics. Machine learning ...

Introduction Despite advances in acute treatment, stroke remains the first cause of acquired disability. Today, there is no effective pharmacological therapy to improve recovery beyond the acute phase. Preclinical studie...

Objectives To characterise post-stroke depression (PSD) diagnostic and treatment patterns in an outpatient primary care setting, including timing, screening methods, therapeutic interventions and associations with mortal...

Stroke recovery involves reorganization of large-scale brain networks, yet most neurophysiological biomarkers assess either motor or cognitive function in isolation. To address this limitation, we introduce phase-modulat...

Background Post-stroke depression (PSD) is a common neuropsychiatric problem associated with a high disease burden and reduced quality of life (QoL). To date, few studies have examined the network structure of depressive...

Background While associations between exposure to air pollution and the prevalence of acute ischaemic stroke (AIS) have been investigated, only a few studies have reported the relationship between air pollution and strok...

BackgroundPatients with chronic disease may experience complicated management plans requiring significant personal investment. This has been termed 'treatment burden' and has been associated with unfavourable outcomes. T...

Abstract The Nottingham Stroke Dressing Assessment (NSDA) is a scale for assessing the ability and independence to dress people who have suffered a stroke. The objective of this study was to update the original scale and...

BackgroundStroke remains a primary cause of long-term disability worldwide, with upper-limb deficits affecting up to 80% of survivors acutely and 40% chronically. These deficits lead to considerable effects on their inde...

Brain stroke is a devastating medical condition, that affects world population and is the main cause of disabilities worldwide. Disabilities related to stroke can affect motor pathways, and may lead to several motor func...
