Filter by:Stroke is a major public health issue in developed countries. A full etiological work up within a short time is critical to implement the appropriate preventive treatment. The etiological work up is actually based on a clinical examination and on a group of paraclinical examinations. The realization of the standard strategy is time consuming, and increase the cost of the medical care. A non-invasive one-shot examination of the heart, the aorta and the cervical and intracranial arteries (cci-MRI) could overcome these disadvantages.The investigator therefore propose to carry out an overall assessment of the performance of the cci-MR in the etiological work up of ischemic strokes and TIAs compared to the reference strategy
Collect blood from patients admitted for coronary angiography to tubes with heparin, centrifuge and collect plasma. This will be frozen at -80C. Sent to the Lipotype laboratory, Dresden, Germany, for the detection and quantification of compounds derived from oxidized LDL cholesterol (cholesterol hemi-esters).
The functional prognosis of patients with ischaemic stroke treated by thrombolysis and thrombectomy is associated with complete reperfusion of the occluded artery defined by an mTICI 2C or 3 score at the end of thrombectomy. However, this complete reperfusion is only obtained in 60% of patients. Most often, incomplete reperfusion is due to the persistence of distal occlusions, which are inaccessible to mechanical thrombectomy. Drug treatment, combined with thrombectomy to increase the rate of complete reperfusion, would be a major advance in the management of these patients. This is a non-randomized, monocentric, open-label, phase II trial to evaluate efficacy of dornase alfa intravenous administration in patients treated with intravenous thrombolysis and eligible for thrombectomy for ischemic stroke of the anterior circulation.
- Describe the baseline and procedural characteristics of older patients undergoing PFO closure due to cryptogenic embolism. - Assess the long-term follow-up of this cohort, focusing on neurological events and their origin, major cardiac outcomes, as well as survival rates and death origin. - Seek for predictors of neurological event recurrence after the procedure.
CRISIS I is a prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled trial, to asses the impact of intensive blood pressure control on clinical outcome of acute ischemic stroke patients with successful recanalization after endovascular therapy.
Neurocardiology is an emerging specialty that addresses the interaction between the brain and the heart, i.e. the effects of cardiac injury on the brain, and the effects of brain injury on the heart. Accumulating clinical and experimental evidence suggests a causal relationship between brain damage and heart dysfunction.
This is a randomized clinical trial to study the effect of tDCS in participants with subacute ischemic stroke, the study participants will be randomly assigned into three groups; bihemispheric, unihemispheric and sham group.
Demonstrating the pathophysiological link between Left Atrial (LA) and Left Atrial Appendage (LAA) pathology and embolic strokes in non-Atrial Fibrillation (AF) individuals represents a major advance in stroke prevention strategies. Instead of relying on non-specific criteria for stroke risk assessment, the investigators propose to identify individuals with high-risk of embolic stroke using imaging criteria that reflect the underlying pathophysiology of embolic stroke of cardiac origin. the investigators can therefore lay the groundwork for future anticoagulation strategies for stroke prevention beyond AF.
The objective of the NEUTROSURGERY study is to describe the local and locoregional immuno-inflammatory activity in patients suffering from malignant sylvian ischaemic cerebral accident and treated with decompressive hemicraniectomy compared to a control population of patients to be operated on in neurosurgery for another neurosurgical pathology.
The purpose of this research study is to determine whether blood pressure treatment regimens with spironolactone are better than blood pressure treatment regimens without spironolactone at lowering blood pressure in stroke survivors.
