Background: Mechanical thrombectomy (MT) is the standard of care for eligible acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients with large vessel occlusion (LVO) since 2015.
Aim: Our aim was to determine the key challenges for MT implementation and access worldwide.
Methods: We conducted an international online survey consisting of 37 questions, distributed through the World Stroke Organization network, and as invited by co-authors between December 2022 and March 2023.

Background: Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) accounts for 0.5-1% of all strokes. The role of endovascular therapy (EVT) in the management of CVT remains controversial and variations in practice patterns are not well known.

Plants can transmit information to the next generation and modulate the phenotype of their offspring through epigenetic mechanisms. In this study, we demonstrate the activation of "intergenerational acquired resistance" (IAR) in the progeny of rice (Oryza sativa) plants exogenously treated with dehydroascorbate (DHA). The offspring of lifelong DHA-treated plants (DHA-IAR) were significantly less susceptible to the root-knot nematode Meloidogyne graminicola and partially inherited the DHA-induced transcriptional response found in the parental plants.

Background And Objectives: Acute ischemic stroke patients with a large vessel occlusion (LVO) who present to a primary stroke center (PSC) often require transfer to a comprehensive stroke center (CSC) for thrombectomy. Not much is known about specific characteristics at the PSC that are associated with infarct growth during transfer. Gaining more insight into these features could aid future trials with cytoprotective agents targeted at slowing infarct growth.

Background: The superiority of endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) over medical management was not established in two early basilar artery occlusion (BAO) randomized controlled trials. Despite this, many clinicians recommended EVT for acute BAO under certain circumstances. This paper aims to compare physicians' diagnostic and management strategies of BAO according to gender.
