Background: To date, few data to transcranial Doppler sonography (TCD) are available in patients with mild vascular cognitive impairment (VCI) at risk for vascular or mixed dementia. In a previous study in patients with mild VCI and cerebral small vessels disease, a hemodynamic pattern of cerebral hypoperfusion and enhanced vascular resistance were observed; however, longitudinal data are currently lacking. Here, we perform a clinical, psychopathological, and neurosonological follow-up of patients with VCI in order to monitor any progression and to identify TCD measures to detect it.

Acute internal carotid artery occlusion (AICAO) can result in malignant cerebral edema and unfavorable patient outcomes. This study evaluated the utility of transcranial Doppler (TCD) in assessing contralateral flow compensation and predicting outcomes in patients with AICAO. We enrolled 51 patients within 6 h of symptom onset and conducted TCD examinations to evaluate collateral circulation.

Background: Vascular risk factors seem to contribute to disease progression in Multiple Sclerosis (MS), but the mechanistic connection between vascular risk and MS is unknown. Understanding cerebrovascular hemodynamics (CVH) in MS may help advance our understanding of the link between vascular risk and MS.
Objectives: Examine the relationship between CVH [dynamic cerebral autoregulation (dCA) and vasoreactivity (VR)] and brain structure (MRI) and function (cognition, and gait) in individuals with MS.

Brain hypoperfusion is associated with cognitive impairment. Higher cerebrovascular impedance modulus (Z) may contribute to brain hypoperfusion. We tested hypotheses that patients with amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI) (i.

Background: Bacterial meningitis (BM) poses a serious threat to infant health. We assessed cranial ultrasound (CUS) changes in infants with BM as possible predictors of the neurological sequelae of BM.
Methods: We retrospectively assigned 132 infants diagnosed with BM from 2007 to 2021.
