Purpose: Hemorrhagic transformation (HT) is a severe complication in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) undergoing intravenous thrombolysis therapy (IVT). Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) contributes to the development of AIS and the disruption of the blood-brain barrier. This study aims to investigate the relationship between EAT and the risk of HT, as well as functional outcomes, in AIS patients treated with IVT.

Background: Mechanical thrombectomy is the treatment of choice for ischemic strokes of the anterior circulation with proximal occlusion. Mechanical thrombectomy can be performed under sedation, which can lead to episodes of periprocedural agitation. The aim of this study is to describe the prevalence of agitation and determine the consequences during and after mechanical thrombectomy.

Objective: This study aimed to explore Malignant Brain Edema (MBE) and associated factors in patients with Large Hemispheric Infarction (LHI) following early reperfusion therapy.
Methods: We consecutively and retrospectively enrolled a cohort of 114 LHI patients who had received early reperfusion therapy, including Intravenous Thrombolysis (IVT) or Endovascular Therapy (EVT) at the hyperacute stage of stroke between January 2009 and December 2018. MBE was defined as a midline shift ≥5 mm, accompanied by signs of herniation.

Objectives: The utility of thrombolysis and/or thrombectomy in patients with mild stroke and large vessel occlusion (LVO) remains inconclusive. This retrospective study compared short-term and long-term outcomes in patients treated with best medical therapy (BMT group) versus with intravenous thrombolytics and/or endovascular thrombectomy (intervention group).
Methods: Patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS), LVO, and National Institutes of Health Stroke Score (NIHSS) ≤5 were included.

Background And Purpose: Endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) with M2 segment occlusion of the middle cerebral artery (MCA) is debatable. This study assessed the efficacy, safety, and functional outcomes of EVT in M2 occlusion patients, examining differences in outcomes based on the dominance of the occluded segment (DomM2 vs. Non-DomM2).
