Alpha-synuclein (aSyn) aggregates in the central nervous system are the main pathological hallmark of Parkinson's disease (PD).

- A study was conducted to evaluate the safety and efficacy of thrombolytic treatment (IVTPA) in patients with wake-up acute ischemic strokes, based on their normal non-contrast brain CT scans.* -
- The retrospective analysis included 306 patients, with 27 having wake-up strokes; outcomes such as discharge rates and in-hospital mortality were comparable between the two groups.* -
- The results suggest it's safe to administer IVTPA to wake-up stroke patients, proposing that treatment eligibility might be extended beyond the usual 4.5 hours for those with normal brain scans after a witnessed stroke.*
