Reliability of Siriraj stroke score to distinguish between hemorrhagic and ischemic stroke

The aim of study was to establish a quick way to differentiate between hemorrhagic and ischemic stroke by using siriraj stroke score and find its specificity and sensitivity by comparing it with CT...

Application and future directions of brain-computer interfaces in neurological disorders: Technological advances, clinical practices, and challenges

Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCIs) represent an innovative frontier in technology, establishing a direct link between the brain and external devices. This rapidly evolving field is increasingly recognized...

Hemorrhage in brain tumor – An unresolved issue

Intratumoral hemorrhage (ITH) as a variant of intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) is a known, albeit rare, clinical entity. Hemorrhages within brain neoplasms seem to remain underreported, including angiomatous...

Falx interhemispheric subdural hematoma in a hypertensive patient with urticaria: A case report

Falx interhemispheric subdural hematoma (FISH) is a rare subtype of subdural hematoma that occurs between the cerebral hemispheres along with falx cerebri. It represents less than 0.5% of all subdural...

Cerebral vasospasm after subarachnoid hemorrhage: Developing treatments

Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) can be devastating with high morbidity and mortality. A common sequela is cerebral vasospasm, the narrowing of cerebral blood vessels that can lead to ischemic stroke if...

Perioperative management of brain hemorrhage: Advances in anesthetic strategies and translational medicine

•Brain hemorrhage presents perioperative challenges, requiring optimized anesthetic strategies.•Anesthesia choice and agent selection significantly influence perioperative outcomes.•Advanced neuromonitoring...

Behavioral tests in rodent models of stroke

Rodents are the most widely used experimental animals in stroke research due to their similar vascular anatomy, high reproductive rates, and availability of transgenic models. However, the difficulties...

Clinical treatment progress of small amounts thalamus hemorrhage

Thalamic hemorrhage is one of deep-seating cerebral lesions. Conservative therapy is preferred to patients with minor thalamic hemorrhage, and external ventricular drainage is usually applied in patients...

Neural decoding for EEG-BCI: from conventional machine learning to deep learning models

Brain–computer interfaces (BCIs) decode neural signals to support alternative communication for individuals with motor and speech impairments, including severe speech disorders. We review EEG-BCI decoding...

Advancing deep learning for automated stroke detection: a review

Stroke remains a leading cause of death and disability worldwide, necessitating improved diagnostic tools for early detection and classification. Machine learning (ML) techniques have shown promise...

Anticoagulant-associated intracerebral hemorrhage

Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is the most dangerous complication of oral anticoagulant treatment (OAT). Up to half of patients with OAT-related ICH experience early clinical deterioration due to active...

Reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome: not just a “reversible” condition. Retrospective observational study and literature review

This study aims to critically evaluate the evolving understanding of reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome (RCVS) by examining its potential for long-term complications. While reversible cerebral...

Early anticoagulation in HI-1 hemorrhagic transformation after AF-associated stroke: A randomized trial

•First RCT on early DOAC use in asymptomatic hemorrhagic transformation in atrial fibrillation patients.•Early anticoagulation improved 30-day NIHSS and mRS scores without increasing severe bleeding...

The effect of cocaine and methamphetamine on saccular aneurysm formation and rupture: A literature review

The pathophysiology of saccular aneurysm rupture (berry aneurysm) secondary to cocaine and methamphetamine use has been classically attributed to their effects on cerebrovasculature. We conducted a...

Link between heart failure and stroke: a comprehensive review

Heart failure and stroke are two major cardiovascular conditions that significantly contribute to morbidity and mortality worldwide.1 While the link between heart failure and ischemic stroke is well...

The evolution of brain surgery: Exploring the impact of continuum robotics

Brain surgery requires at most accuracy and precision, yet current neurosurgical robots are limited in their ability to reach intracranial regions due to their rigid and inflexible nature. However,...

Inflammatory response in sepsis and hemorrhagic stroke

Exaggerated/deregulated inflammatory response is a major medical problem that is often associated with bad outcomes or even the death of the patient. Sepsis and severe hemorrhagic stroke are two illustrative...

Cerebral venous impairment and cerebral venous sinus thrombosis

Cerebral veins are responsible for the outflow drainage of brain interstitial fluid (ISF). The importance of cerebral venous drainage has been emphasized in various neurological diseases. Impaired venous...

Current state of endovascular treatment for cavernous and petrous internal carotid artery aneurysms

Cavernous and petrous internal carotid artery (ICA) aneurysms have similar clinical characteristics, making it feasible to discuss these two types of aneurysms together. Currently, endovascular treatment...

Prognosis of recovery and death within 1–6 months of spontaneous cerebellar hemorrhage undergoing suboccipital craniotomy

Suboccipital craniotomy is a considerable surgical approach for large spontaneous cerebellar hemorrhage, but its prognostic has not been comprehensively addressed. This study aims to report the surgical...

Development and validation of an improved ICH score: Integrating clinical and radiographic parameters for enhanced prediction of 30-day mortality in spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage

•Adding pupil status and warfarin use improves ICH score mortality prediction.•The new score achieved an AUROC of 0.91, better than the original score of 0.87.•Enhanced accuracy benefits both nonoperative...

Comparison of single-channel EEG decoding performance in imagined speech tasks

EEG-based imagined speech decoding technology offers a communication solution for patients with language impairments. However, existing research on English-language systems cannot be directly applied...

Models of cerebral amyloid angiopathy-related intracerebral hemorrhage

Cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) is a cerebrovascular disease with vascular amyloid-β deposits and is commonly observed among the elderly. Often associated with Alzheimer’s disease, CAA is among the...

Managing Mental Disorders in Intracranial Hemorrhage (ICH) Patients: A Case Study on The Importance of Early Recognition and Intervention

Intracranial Hemorrhage (ICH) can lead to various clinical manifestations and complications. These include mental disorders that range from impaired cognitive function to disturbances in the sensorium,...

The blood brain barrier in cerebral ischemic injury – Disruption and repair

With the emergence of novel technologies and ground breaking concepts in BBB basic research in the past decades, the researchers’ attention on the critical role of blood brain barrier (BBB) integrity...
