Filter by:The CBI registry is a prospective, interdisciplinary, multimodal observational registry of patients with covert brain infarction. Methods: A standardized workup in analogy to manifest ischemic stroke including cerebral MRI, long-term rhythm monitoring (3 x 7 days ECG), echocardiography, laboratory work-up and risk factor assessment as well as noninvasive angiography of the cervical and intracranial arteries will be performed.
Recent small subcortical infarction (RSSI) is defined as a small deep infarction in the territory of a perforating artery with maximum axial diameters (MAD) of less than 20 mm. Although RSSI is generally considered to be of a relatively favorable prognosis, about 13.5% to 43% of RSSI patients experience early neurological deterioration (END) in the acute phase, which often bring adverse effects on long-term outcomes. Although a number of risk factors for END have been identified previously, however, the risk factors of END and the underlying etiological mechanism are still ambiguous, and also the relevant intervention measures lack sufficient evidences, which is a thorny problem that clinicians have to face. In this multicenter, large-sample prospective registry study, we ought to investigate the natural course of END in patients with RSSI. Exploring the risk factors and potential mechanism of its occurrence and development, and trying to establish a comprehensive predictive model for END that integrates multi-dimensional information including clinical symptom, demographic data, biochemical biomarker and image data, and so as to provide a valuable tool for clinical evaluation and early management. Simultaneously, our study will provide information for the design of therapeutic randomized controlled trials in the future.
This is a single-arm, observational, feasibility study to evaluate if the Halo Alert System can be used in the future to detect stroke events in individuals at risk for stroke wearing the Halo Alert System overnight.
This is a prospective, multicenter, cohort study aiming to compare the safety and efficacy of Embotrap stent retriever to other stent retrievers without inner channel for acute middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO). All enrolled patients will be followed up at 90 days after randomization.
The MATISSE (Molecular Analysis of Thrombus for Ischemic Stroke prognosis and Etiology) project evaluates the hypothesis that the molecular composition of cerebral thrombus in metabolites, lipids, and proteins conditions the clinical prognosis at 3 months of the infarction and informs on its etiological subtype
In this proposal, the investigators will demonstrate the feasibility and noninferiority of telerobotic ultrasonography as compared to traditional manual acquisition in performing a limited carotid Duplex examination and in carotid plaque detection.
Most ischemic stroke patients are in recovery phase, often accompanied by motor impairment, but they lack effective treatment. The appearance of nerve growth factor (NGF) promotes the development of neuroprotective therapy, but it has little effect on stroke because of the blood-brain barrier (BBB). Electroacupuncture (EA) has been used for stroke, while there is no significant clinical effect for recovery phrase. Consequently, we will conduct a multicentre, randomised, controlled, assessor-blinded clinical trial to assess the effectiveness and safety of EA combined with NGF treatment on ischemic stroke recovery.
Time is one of the most important in the decision of treatment of acute ischemic stroke. The optimal One-stop management from admission to recanalization associated with reduction of in-hospital times. The development of flat-detector computed tomography perfusion capable angio-suite allowed One-stop management to be improved treatment time better and better. To compare One-stop management versus our standard workflow in shortening door-to-recanalization time.
This study is a multicenter, prospective, cohort study to observe the clinical efficacy and safety of edaravone dextrol in patients with acute ischemic stroke in a real-world setting.
Excessive accumulation or abnormal distribution of adipose tissue is a recognized risk factor for ischemic stroke. However, the impact of overweight or obesity on clinical outcomes of ischemic stroke is uncertain. The proposition of obesity paradox in stroke patients makes secondary prevention ambiguous for patients with ischemic stroke and overweight or obesity. Body mass index (BMI) or abdominal visceral fat area was used to measure obesity in previous studies. Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) is a unique visceral fat, which has higher expression of proinflammatory genes than subcutaneous fat and abdominal visceral fat. And inflammation is closely related to the prognosis of ischemic stroke. In this study, the investigators assume EAT volume or attenuation evaluated by chest computed tomography (CT) scan might affect the prognosis of patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Patients with the first acute ischemic stroke will be stratified into tertile groups based on EAT volume or attenuation. The primary endpoint measure is the proportion of patients with a favorable recovery of nerve function deficiency assessed by Modified Rankin Scale （mRS≤2） at 90 days after the onset of symptoms. Secondary endpoints include the following: the percentage of functional recovery measured by the Barthel Index (BI) at day 90 after stroke onset, the propotion of clinical improvement (with an improvement of ≥ 4 points on the National Institute of Health Stroke Scale score or the resolution of the neurologic deficit) or neurological deterioration (with a decline by ≥ 4 points in the total National Institute of Health Stroke Scale score) at day 7 after stroke onset, incidence of hemorrhagic transformation and mortality within 7 days of symptom onset.
