Background: Microembolic signals (MES) can be detected using transcranial Doppler (TCD) ultrasound in several clinical scenarios, including acute ischemic stroke (AIS). This narrative review aims to provide insights into their role in AIS patient management and outcomes.
Methods: The present narrative review consolidates current observational and randomized evidence on the prevalence and clinical relevance of MES in different AIS subtypes and settings.
Purpose: Post-stroke depression (PSD) is a common complication after stroke and has a substantial effect on the quality of life of patients. Nevertheless, reliable individual prediction of PSD is not possible. As depressive symptoms have been associated with brainstem raphe (BR) hypoechogenicity on transcranial sonography (TCS), we aimed to explore the association of BR hypoechogenicity and the occurrence of PSD.

- Multiple sclerosis is a disease where the immune system attacks the nervous system, making it hard to find effective treatments to fully fix it.
- Scientists are studying how diet, especially high-fiber foods, can help by producing beneficial substances like propionic acid, which might help protect nerve cells.
- In experiments, they found that propionic and butyric acid helped damaged nerve cells recover better, which could lead to new ways to help people with multiple sclerosis.
Objectives: To standardize optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) point-of-care ultrasonography (POCUS) and improve its research and clinical utility by developing the ONSD POCUS Quality Criteria Checklist (ONSD POCUS QCC).
Design: Three rounds of modified Delphi consensus process and three rounds of asynchronous discussions.
Setting: Online surveys and anonymous asynchronous discussion.
Background And Purpose: Automated perfusion imaging can detect stroke patients with unknown time of symptom onset who are eligible for thrombolysis. However, the availability of this technique is limited. We, therefore, established the novel concept of computed tomography (CT) hypoperfusion-hypodensity mismatch, i.
