Objective: Protected code stroke has been widely introduced in the emergency medical system for acute stroke in the current coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. This study aims to confirm the effects of protected code stroke formulated by the Japan Stroke Society (JSS-PCS) on the quality and outcomes of reperfusion therapy for acute ischemic stroke (AIS), followed by evaluating its validity.
Methods: The subjects were 109 consecutive patients with AIS who underwent reperfusion therapy between January 2016 and July 2021, excluding in-hospital onset cases.
Article Synopsis
- The study aims to understand how molecular genetic factors influence brain tumor progression during pregnancy and the postpartum period.
- It analyzed 12 cases, including different tumor types such as gliomas and meningiomas, using genetic techniques to assess chromosomal changes and hormone receptor expression.
- Findings suggest that various growth factors and sex hormones are linked to tumor progression, with specific receptor expressions possibly determining when tumors become clinically evident during pregnancy.
