Early prehospital stroke identification is crucial for goal directed hospital admission especially in rural areas. However, clinical prehospital stroke scales are designed to identify any stroke but cannot sufficiently differentiate hemorrhagic from ischemic stroke, including large vessel occlusion (LVO) amenable to mechanical thrombectomy. We report on a novel small, portable and battery driven p...... hiện toàn bộ

Nearly one in three unconscious cardiac arrest survivors experience post-anoxic status epilepticus (PASE). Historically, PASE has been deemed untreatable resulting in its exclusion from status epilepticus clinical trials. However, emerging reports of survivors achieving functional independence following early and aggressive treatment of PASE challenged this widespread therapeutic nihilism. In the ...... hiện toàn bộ

The targeted use of endovascular therapy (EVT), with or without intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) in acute large cerebral vessel occlusion stroke (LVOS) has been proven to be superior compared to IVT alone. Despite favorable functional outcome, many patients complain about cognitive decline after EVT. If IVT in addition to EVT has positive effects on cognitive function is unclear. We analyzed data fr...... hiện toàn bộ
Autoimmune encephalitis in children and adolescentsNeurological Research and Practice - Tập 2 - Trang 1-8 - 2020
C. G. Bien, C. I. Bien
Autoimmune encephalitides with neural and glial antibodies have become an attractive field in neurology because the antibodies are syndrome-specific, explain the pathogenesis, indicate the likelihood of an underlying tumor, and often predict a good response to immunotherapy. The relevance and the management of antibody-associated encephalitides in the pediatric age group are to be discussed. Subac...... hiện toàn bộ
COX2 expression is associated with preoperative tumor volume but not with volumetric tumor growth in vestibular schwannomaNeurological Research and Practice - Tập 3 - Trang 1-7 - 2021

Vestibular schwannomas (VS) are benign slow growing tumors arising from the vestibular nerve. The role of cyclooxygenase 2 (COX2) in tumor development of growth has been addressed in a few studies with contradictory results and suggestions. We recently analyzed the immunohistochemical expression of COX2 in 1044 VS samples and described an association of higher COX2 expression with proliferation bu...... hiện toàn bộ

Stroke patients with large vessel occlusion (LVO) require endovascular therapy (EVT) provided by comprehensive stroke centers (CSC). One strategy to achieve fast stroke symptom ‘onset to treatment’ times (OTT) is the preclinical selection of patients with severe stroke for direct transport to CSC. Another is the optimization of interhospital transfer workflow. Our aim was to investigate the dynami...... hiện toàn bộ
