Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how the volume of brain infarcts progresses over time in stroke patients with large vessel occlusion, identifying different rates of growth among patients as slow, intermediate, and fast progressors.
- Using advanced statistical methods on MRI data from a large cohort of stroke patients, researchers created models to predict clinical outcomes based on infarct growth patterns.
- The results showed distinct patterns in infarct volume evolution, with specific brain regions affected at different rates, enabling predictions on recovery outcomes three months post-stroke.
Background: Aneurysm location is a key element in predicting the rupture risk of an intracranial aneurysm. A common impression suggests that pure ophthalmic aneurysms are under-represented in ruptured intracranial aneurysms (RIAs). The purpose of this study was to specifically evaluate the risk of rupture of ophthalmic aneurysms compared with other aneurysm locations.

We aimed to investigate whether spontaneous external carotid artery (ECA) embolism detection during MT is associated with stroke etiology and clinical outcome.
Methods: We retrospectively reviewed our prospectively maintained institutional database including consecutive patients with anterior circulation LVOS treated with MT between January 2015 and August 2020.
