Currently, the literature regarding the relationship between Pulse Wave Velocity (PWV) and functional recovery, particularly of upper limb function, in patients with subacute stroke is still limited. Therefore, the aim of the study is to evaluate the changes in baPWV after four weeks of intensive rehabilitation therapy, and the correlation between these changes and functional recovery.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effects of different concentrations of normobaric oxygen on early neurological improvement in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients receiving endovascular therapy (EVT). The main questions it aims to answer are: - Evaluating the impact of normobaric high-concentration oxygen versus low-concentration oxygen on early neurological function after EVT. - Evaluating the safety of high and low normobaric oxygen concentration in patients with ischemic stroke. Participants will (1) receive EVT under general anesthesia; (2) be randomly assigned 1:1 to receive oxygen therapy with FiO2=80% or FiO2=30% through endotracheal intubation during the operation, and the gas flow rate was set at 4L /min.
The aim of this study was to randomize stroke patients with unilateral neglect into 2 groups, active and sham groups, and to examine the effects of active inhibitory repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation on the reduction of neglect symptoms, functional recovery and independence of these patients in activities of daily living.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of endovascular treatment with or without preceding intravenous Tenecteplase in patients with late-window (4.5-24 hours of symptom onset) acute ischemic stroke due to middle cerebral artery (MCA) M1 or M2 occlusion.
Prospective registry of clinical and radiological data in acute ischemic stroke patients after endovascular treatment.
The aim of our study is to investigate transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) as a treatment option in Complex Regional Pain Syndrome, disseminate it to a broader patient population, and simultaneously demonstrate its applicability in the treatment of complex regional pain syndrome using a novel frequency matching.
Along with the current clinical trial, the efficacy and safety of a 1000 mg daily citicoline administered within 24 hours of the first-ever ischemic stroke and lasted 12 months compared to placebo were assessed through MoCA, NIHSS, mRS, and possible adverse effects.
Since 2015, many randomized trials have shown that endovascular thrombectomy improve functional outcomes in acute ischemic stroke patients with large vessel occlusion. Recently, five randomized controlled trials (ANGEL-ASPECT [Endovascular Therapy in Acute Anterior Circulation Large Vessel Occlusive Patients with a Large Infarct Core], LASTE [LArge Stroke Therapy Evaluation], RESCUE-Japan LIMIT [The Recovery by Endovascular Salvage for Cerebral Ultra-Acute Embolism-Japan Large Ischemic Core Trial], SELECT 2 [Randomized Controlled Trial to Optimize Patient's Selection for Endovascular Treatment in Acute Ischemic Stroke], and TENSION [The Efficacy and Safety of Thrombectomy in Stroke with extended lesion and extended time window]) demonstrated the efficacy and safety of thrombectomy for large infarct patients (defined as Alberta Stroke Program Early Computed Tomography Score [ASPECTS] ≥3 or infarct core <100ml). Patients with extra-large infarct core (volume greater than 100 mL, ASPECTS score of 2 or less) were excluded from these trials. Therefore, the efficacy of endovascular thrombectomy in patients with extra-large ischemic burden has not been well studied. The XL STROKE registry is aiming to investigate the clinical outcomes and safety of mechanical thrombectomy in acute extra-large ischemic stroke.
Along with the current clinical trial, the efficacy and safety of 180 mg loading dose of ticagrelor administered within 24 hours of first-ever large-vessel ischemic stroke compared to 200 mg cilostazol were assessed through NIHSS, mRS, and possible adverse effects.
