Predictive Value of the Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio and C-Reactive Protein in Patients with Idiopathic Facial Nerve Palsy.

Objective: This study aims to investigate the prognostic value of the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and C-reactive protein (CRP) in patients with idiopathic facial nerve palsy.

Methods: The clinical data of patients with idiopathic facial nerve palsy were retrospectively analyzed. After three months of follow-up, patients were divided into good prognosis and poor prognosis, and the correlation between NLR, CRP and idiopathic facial nerve palsy was analyzed.

Effect of heart rate on poor outcome in stroke patients treated with intra-arterial thrombectomy.

Background And Purpose: The relationship between heart rate and the prognosis of patients with large vessel occlusion strokes treated with mechanical thrombectomy (MT) is not well established. This study aimed to evaluate the association of mean heart rate and heart rate variability (HRV) with the clinical outcomes after MT therapy.

Methods: Acute ischemic stroke patients undergoing MT therapy were prospectively recruited from March 2020 to November 2022.

Trajectory Groups of 72-Hour Heart Rate After Mechanical Thrombectomy and Outcomes.

Background And Purpose: Elevated heart rate (HR) after mechanical thrombectomy (MT) was associated with an increased risk of adverse outcomes. However, optimal HR management after MT remains unclear. This study aimed to identify patient subgroups with distinct HR trajectories after MT and explore their association with outcomes.

Revascularization of acute stent thrombosis caused by diarrhea after carotid artery stenting in an intermediate clopidogrel metabolizer.

Carotid artery stenting (CAS) is an alternative treatment to carotid endarterectomy for carotid artery stenosis. Acute stent thrombosis (ACST) is an extremely rare complication but can have devastating consequences. Although many cases have been reported, the best treatment is still uncertain.
