Background: Symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) is the most dreaded complication after reperfusion therapy for acute ischemic stroke. We performed a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials to estimate and compare risks of sICH after mechanical thrombectomy (MT) depending on the location of the large vessel occlusion, concomitant use of intravenous thrombolysis, timing of treatment, and core size.

Methods: Randomized controlled trials were included, following a comprehensive search of different databases from inception to 1 March 2024.

Analysis of choroidal markers of activity in pachychoroid disease spectrum.

Graefes Arch Clin Exp Ophthalmol

January 2025

Londrina State University, Avenida Robert Koch, 60, Londrina, CEP 86038-440, Paraná, Brazil.

Purpose: To detect choroidal markers of disease activity in eyes with chronic active unilateral pachychoroid disease spectrum (PDS) compared to the non-active contralateral eyes, based on multimodal imaging and particularly indocyanine green angiography (ICGA).

Methods: An observational retrospective case-control study. The study evaluated individuals diagnosed with chronic active unilateral PDS (group 1) by comparing the eyes with the non-active fellow eyes (group 2).

Background: Anterior circulation stroke (ACS) differs from posterior circulation stroke (PCS) in several aspects. We hypothesize that the risk of early neurologic deterioration (END) and its responses to clopidogrel plus aspirin versus aspirin alone may be different between stroke territories.

Methods And Results: This was a prespecified post hoc analysis of ATAMIS (Antiplatelet Therapy in Acute Mild to Moderate Ischemic Stroke) trial and included patients with definite infarct location who were classified into ACS and PCS according to stroke territory.

Objective: Endovascular mechanical thrombectomy (EVMT) is widely employed in patients with acute intracranial carotid artery occlusion (AIICAO). This study aimed to predict the outcomes of EVMT following AIICAO by utilizing anatomic classification of the circle of Willis and its relative position to the thrombus.

Methods: In this study, we retrospectively analyzed a cohort of 108 patients with AIICAO who underwent endovascular mechanical thrombectomy (EVMT) at Shaoxing People's Hospital.

Aberrant anatomical variation of the vertebral artery (VA) from an internal carotid artery (ICA) is considered a rare finding. The incidence of this phenomenon can lead to patients suffering from posterior circulation neurological deficit if the ICA becomes significantly diseased. VA atypical anatomical origin is considered one of the rare pathologies, not only precipitating neurovascular incidents but equally leading to severe difficulty in VA dissection and surgical exposure, especially in carotid artery procedures.
