Figure 1: VEGF-expression following cerebral ischemia in the brain of a VEGF-GFP mouse. Figure 2: Effect of Src- or Fyn-deficiency, and pharmacological inhibition of Src on infarct volumes 24 h ...

Cerebral ischemic injury occurs when blood flow drops below a critical level, resulting in an energy failure. The progressive transformation of hypoperfused viable tissue, the ischemic penumbra, into ...

Baseline characteristics, degree of stenosis before and after procedures, perioperative complications, and the rates of cerebral perfusion change were compared between groups. Patients were followed ...

It has now been 25 years since prourokinase was in the spotlight as a potential treatment for acute ischaemic stroke. In 1999, the PROACT-II randomised controlled trial compared intra-arterial ...

We report the case of a 70-year-old man who presented with short-term memory impairment and a homonymous left inferior quadrantanopia secondary to simultaneous bilateral posterior cerebral artery (PCA ...

A new neuroimaging marker of cerebral small vessel disease is related to general cognition and may serve to identify persons ...

Objective: To investigate whether the extent of white matter lesions (WML) on fluid attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) MRI sequences is an independent risk factor for recurrent stroke, and to ...

Stroke risk assessment can be achieved using speckle contrast optical spectroscopy to monitor changes in brain blood flow and volume during breath-holding.

The condition can be treated in both children and adults. Certain health conditions can increase the risk of stroke. They include high blood pressure, diabetes, and atherosclerosis (narrowed blood ...
