Article Synopsis
  • Carotid artery stenting (CAS) is a treatment for narrowing arteries, but it can have a rare and serious complication called carotid stent thrombosis (CST).
  • A case was studied where a 50-year-old man had CST after getting CAS and had trouble because of blood flow issues caused by a clot.
  • Doctors used special treatments to remove the clot, and after changing his medications, he got better and didn’t have any new problems for over a year.

The existence of transfer effects of video games on cognitive performance are controversially discussed in experimental psychology. Whereas recent meta-analyses suggest the absence of far transfer effects, empirical evidence regarding near transfer effects is more controversial. This conceptual replication investigated the short-term near transfer effect of playing Tetris on mental rotation abilities.

Background: Repeated number of passes, clot fragmentation, and distal embolization during mechanical thrombectomy (MT) lead to worse clinical outcomes in acute ischemic stroke. This study aimed to assess the recanalization and embolic outcomes of different stent-retrievers (SRs): open-tip SR (Solitaire X 6×40 mm), closed-tip SR (EmboTrap II 5×33 mm), and filter-tip SR (NeVa NET 5.5×37 mm).

Background: ANA Advanced Neurovascular Access provides a novel funnel component designed to reduce clot fragmentation and facilitate retrieval in combination with stent-retrievers (SRs) in stroke patients by restricting flow and limiting clot shaving. In previous publications ANA presented excellent in vitro/in vivo efficacy data, especially with fibrin-rich hard clots. We aimed to determine the main physical property responsible for these results, namely suction force versus aspiration flow.

Objective: Acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is an important global health problem. Intravenous (IV) thrombolysis with recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) is the standard treatment. However, only a small number of patients benefit from it because of strict application restrictions.
