Objective: Flow diversion is increasingly used as an endovascular treatment for intracranial aneurysms. FRED-EPI is a prospective, multicenter, French study, conducted to analyze the safety and efficacy of aneurysm treatment with FRED/FRED Jr (Microvention, AlisoViejo, CA, USA) in current clinical practice.
Patients And Methods: Patients with intracranial aneurysms treated with FRED and FRED Jr who agreed to participate were prospectively and consecutively included in all French centers using these devices.
In the past decade, noble gases have emerged as highly promising neuroprotective agents. Previous studies have demonstrated the efficacy of argon neuroprotection in rodent models of cerebral ischemia. The objective of the present pre-clinical study was to confirm the neuroprotective effect of argon in a non-human primate model of endovascular ischemic stroke.

All-optical systems offer unique benefits due to their inherent 100-THz carrier frequency, enabling the development of THz-clock frequency processors. However, the bandwidth of quantum light sources and measurement devices has been limited to the MHz range, with nonclassical state generation rates in the kHz range.

The Timed Up and Go (TUG) test is a complex navigational task involving oriented walking and obstacle circumvention. We hypothesized that subjects with hemiparesis adopt a cautious gait during complex locomotor tasks.
