Efficacy of delivery of care with Tele-continuous EEG in critically ill patients: a multicenter randomized controlled trial (Tele-cRCT study) study.

Background: Continuous electroencephalography (cEEG) has been recommended in critically ill patients although its efficacy for improving patients' functional status remains unclear. This study aimed to compare the efficacy of Tele-cEEG with Tele-routine EEG (Tele-rEEG), in terms of seizure detection rate, mortality and functional outcomes.

Methods: This study is a 3-year randomized, controlled, parallel, multicenter trial, conducted in eight regional hospitals across Thailand.

The Prevalence of CYP2C19 Polymorphism in Patients with Symptomatic Intracranial Atherosclerosis.

Introduction: Combination of clopidogrel and aspirin has been proven beneficial in treating symptomatic intracranial stenosis. The CYP2C19 polymorphism (CYP2C19*1, CYP2C19*2, CYP2C19*3, and CYP2C19*17 alleles) affects the efficacy of clopidogrel. Although epidemiologic studies of CYP2C19 polymorphism have been conducted in the Thai population, data on the frequency of allelic variants of CYP2C19 in Thai patients with symptomatic intracranial stenosis are lacking.

Outcomes of Symptomatic Intracranial Large Artery Stenoses: a Prospective Cohort Study from The Asian Registry of Intracranial Atherosclerosis (ARICAS).

Introduction: Intracranial large artery atherosclerosis (ICAS) is a common cause of stroke in Asia. Prior epidemiological publications on ICAS have largely been single-country reports. This collaborative study involving several Asian countries aims to investigate the characteristics and outcomes of patients with stroke attributable to ICAS.

An intelligent learning system based on electronic health records for unbiased stroke prediction.

Stroke has a negative impact on people's lives and is one of the leading causes of death and disability worldwide. Early detection of symptoms can significantly help predict stroke and promote a healthy lifestyle. Researchers have developed several methods to predict strokes using machine learning (ML) techniques.

Prevalence of RNF213 rs112735431 Genetic Polymorphism in Non-Cardioembolic Ischemic Cerebrovascular Disease: A Cross-Sectional Study in Thai Patients.

Introduction: Moyamoya disease (MMD) and non-MMD intracranial cerebral artery stenosis (ICAS) have been linked to the RNF213 rs112735431 gene in Korean and Japanese populations. This cross-sectional study investigates the prevalence of the RNF213 rs112735431 gene in non-cardioembolic ischemic stroke (NCIS) among Thai patients.

Methods: A cross-sectional investigation was conducted on patients aged 18 years or older admitted to King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital between June 2015 and March 2016 with acute NCIS.
