Objective: Successful implementation of stroke rehabilitation guidelines demands high-quality practice standards tailored to targeted sociodemographic contexts. The primary objective is to determine the quality differences in post-stroke rehabilitation practice guidelines (PGs), when comparing high-income countries (HIC) and low or middle-income countries (LMIC).
Study Design And Setting: We conducted a scoping review of PGs in English or Spanish, published between 2012 and 2021, and providing recommendations on post-stroke rehabilitation.
Importance: Acute symptomatic seizures occurring within 7 days after ischemic stroke may be associated with an increased mortality and risk of epilepsy. It is unknown whether the type of acute symptomatic seizure influences this risk.
Objective: To compare mortality and risk of epilepsy following different types of acute symptomatic seizures.
Introduction: Approximately 5-10 % of the patients with cryptogenic stroke have an underlying malignancy. Stroke as a complication of cancer increases the morbidity and mortality among cancer patients, leading to increased disability and healthcare costs.
Objective: To provide elements to guide physicians for when to suspect and evaluate for cancer in stroke patients.
Objective: To describe patient characteristics, radiological findings and the clinical course of adults with fatal reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome (RCVS).
Methods: A systematic literature search from January 1, 2000, until December 31, 2018, was performed using PubMed, EMBASE, Scopus, Cochrane reviews, LILACS and Scielo. Studies reporting RCVS in adult patients with fatal outcomes were included.
