Mashup Score: 2Recurrence risk in symptomatic intracranial stenosis treated medically in the real world - 1 year(s) ago
The risk of early recurrence in medically treated patients with intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (ICAS) may differ in clinical trials versus real-world settings. Delayed enrollment may contribute to lower event rates in ICAS trials. We aim to determine the 30-day recurrence risk in a real-world setting of symptomatic ICAS.

Intracranial stenosis (ICAS) is a common cause of stroke worldwide and patients with symptomatic ICAS exhibit a high rate of recurrence, particularly in the early period after the initial event. In this study, we aimed to study the association between borderzone infarct and recurrent ischemic stroke in patients hospitalized with symptomatic ICAS.

Borderzone infarcts imply impaired blood flow and was associated with increased early recurrence in ICAD in this study. Would the high risk of early recurrence in ICAD be reduced by targeting high risk patients who mechanistically benefit from reperfusion? https://t.co/cEpleEi0Hp

Mashup Score: 18
Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) is a disorder characterized by vasogenic edema predominantly in the parieto-occipital regions associated with acute onset of neurological symptoms including encephalopathy, seizures, headache, and visual disturbances. It has been classically associated with uncontrolled hypertension, renal failure, exposure to cytotoxic agents, or…

Mashup Score: 0Disease Burden Following Non-Cardioembolic Minor Ischemic Stroke or High-Risk TIA: A GWTG-Stroke Study - 4 year(s) ago
Limited real-world data are available on outcomes following non-cardioembolic minor ischemic stroke (IS) or high-risk transient ischemic attack (TIA), particularly in the United States (US). We examined outcomes and Medicare payments following any severity IS or TIA as well as the subgroup with minor IS or high-risk TIA.

Mashup Score: 6Acute Stroke Care in a New York City Comprehensive Stroke Center during the COVID-19 Pandemic - 4 year(s) ago
The coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic caused unprecedented demand and burden on emergency health care services in New York City. We aim to describe our experience providing acute stroke care at a comprehensive stroke center (CSC) and the impact of the pandemic on the quality of care for patients presenting with acute ischemic stroke (AIS).

Mashup Score: 0Poststroke Montreal Cognitive Assessment and Recurrent Stroke in Patients With Symptomatic Intracranial Atherosclerosis - 4 year(s) ago
Background and Purpose: Cognitive impairment occurs in 20%-40% of stroke patients and is a predictor of long-term morbidity and mortality. In this study, we aim to determine the association between poststroke cognitive impairment and stroke recurrence risk, in patients with anterior versus posterior circulation intracranial stenosis. Methods: This is a post-hoc analysis of the Stenting and…
