Stroke, in association with its complications, is one of the leading causes of mortality and morbidity worldwide. Cerebral ischemia triggers an inflammatory response in the brain that is controlled by the activation of resident microglia as well as the infiltration of peripheral myeloid and lymphoid cells into the brain parenchyma. This inflammation has been shown to have both beneficial and detrimental effects on stroke outcome. The focus of this review lies on the functions of myeloid cells and their interaction with infiltrating lymphocytes in different phases of stroke. A detailed and time-specific understanding of the contribution of different immune cell subsets during the course of cerebral ischemia is crucial to specifically promote beneficial and inhibit detrimental effects of inflammation on stroke outcome.

: Subarachnoid hemorrhage is a serious condition caused by ruptured intracranial aneurysms, resulting in severe disability mainly in young adults. Cerebral vasospasm is one of the most common complication of subarachnoid hemorrhage; thus, active prevention is key to improve the prognosis. The glycosylation of proteins is a critical quality attribute which is reportedly altered in patients diagnosed with acute ischemic stroke.

Ischemic stroke, caused by blocked cerebral blood flow, requires prompt intervention to prevent severe motor and cognitive impairments. Despite extensive drug development efforts, the failure rate of clinical trials remains high, highlighting the need for novel therapeutic approaches. This study investigated the therapeutic potential of a natural herbal extract mixture of Bunge (AM) and Georgi (SB), traditionally used in Eastern Asian herbal medicine (EAHM) for ischemic stroke treatment.

Background/objectives: Post-stroke hemiparetic gait often presents with asymmetric patterns to compensate for stability deficits. This study examines gait differences in chronic stroke patients with spastic hemiparesis based on initial foot contact type-forefoot versus rearfoot.
Methods: Thirty-four independently walking spastic hemiparetic patients were retrospectively analyzed.

Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is a rare and potentially critical cerebrovascular disease involving intracranial dural sinuses and veins. The diagnosis is a stepwise pathway starting from clinical suspicion and employing several neuroradiological techniques, mainly Computed Tomography (CT)-based and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)-based modalities. The neuroradiological findings, both in the diagnostic phase and in the follow-up phase, may provide some results at risk for misdiagnosis.

Background/objectives: Noninvasive brain stimulation (NIBS) can boost motor recovery after a stroke. Certain movement phases are more responsive to NIBS, so a system that auto-detects these phases would optimize stimulation timing. This study assessed the effectiveness of various machine learning models in identifying movement phases in hemiparetic individuals undergoing simultaneous NIBS and EEG recordings.
