Introduction: Visual snow syndrome (VSS) is a central nervous system disorder that consists of the constant perception of small black and white dots throughout the entire visual field.
Development: VSS can present from infancy to old age, with greater prevalence in the young population, and shows no difference between sexes. The diagnostic criteria include the presence of visual snow and such other visual phenomena as palinopsia, photophobia, nyctalopia, and other persistent visual phenomena.
Article Synopsis
- International guidelines advise against using intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) in ischemic stroke patients who have recently taken direct oral anticoagulants (DOAC).
- A multicenter study examined the risk of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) in 832 patients who underwent IVT within 48 hours of DOAC use, compared to over 32,000 controls without recent DOAC intake.
- Results highlighted varied outcomes based on prior DOAC therapy, with focus on sICH incidence measured through established stroke scales, and included an analysis of DOAC levels and reversal treatments prior to IVT.

Purpose: The ultrasonographic and hemodynamic features of patients with carotid near-occlusion (CNO) are still not well known. Our aim was to describe the ultrasonographic and hemodynamic characteristics of a cohort of patients with CNO.
Methods: A prospective, observational, nationwide, and multicenter study was conducted from January/2010 to May/2016.
