BACKGROUND
Little is known about the incidence and risk factors of early consciousness disorder (ECD) in patients with acute ischemic stroke, or about how ECD may affect complications and outcomes.
METHODS
Patients admitted to our hospital within 24 h of onset of acute ischemic stroke were
In 26 patients with stroke accompanied by consciousness disorders, 48 monitoring recordings of compressed spectral array of EEG were performed by means of computerised real-time fast Fourier transformation of initial EEG with digital assay of total spectral power and percentage of frequency
Background. Pituitary apoplexy (PA) is a clinical syndrome caused by acute ischemic infarction or hemorrhage of the pituitary gland. The typical clinical presentation of PA includes acute onset of severe headache, visual disturbance, cranial nerve palsy, and altered level of consciousness. Case
The peculiarities of consciousness disturbances in 289 patients with grave brain stroke were studied. Eight informative clinical syndromes, including the awakeness level, brain stem reflex functions as well as vegetative-visceral functions were described. Two levels and eleven corresponding to them
This study was designed to investigate the prevalence of risk factors, etiology, clinical course and outcome of the first-ever ischemic stroke in patients aged at least 85 when compared with younger patients with ischemic stroke. We studied 802 patients with first-ever ischemic stroke, including 103
OBJECTIVE
To describe outcomes and outcome predictors in childhood basilar artery stroke (BAS).
METHODS

A clinical case that occurred in a 42 years old female and which fulfils the diagnostic criteria for the entity described as Heat Stroke is presented. In this case, besides the usual manifestations of hyperpyrexia without sweating along with consciousness disorders, features of consumptive
OBJECTIVE
Herpes simplex encephalitis usually has a progressive cause. Sudden neurological deficits are unusual.
METHODS
Case study.
RESULTS
A 17-year-old girl presented with an acute onset focal neurological deficit followed one week later by the more classical feature of altered level of
A short cut review was carried out to establish the rate and clinical characteristics of missed diagnosis of acute ischaemic stroke in the emergency department (ED). Two papers presented the best evidence to answer the clinical question. The author, date and country of publication, patient group
The aim of this study was to identify early prognostic factors in children with ischemic arterial stroke. Presenting symptoms, patterns of infarction on magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography scans, and etiologic findings were compared with clinical outcome in a consecutive series of 31
OBJECTIVE
Heat stroke (HS) is a life-threatening illness characterized by an altered level of consciousness with an elevated core body temperature 40 centigrade, which may be further classified as exertional heat stroke (EHS) or classical heat stroke (CHS) according to the etiology of the condition.
Hemorrhagic stroke is responsible for significant morbidity and mortality. Postpartum and pregnancy are risk period. Only urgent care in intensive care units may improve prognosis. We report the case of 22 years old's Morrocan, who presented to our department with an intense headache headset
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the presentation, timing, etiology, and outcome of ischemic stroke (IS), hemorrhagic stroke (HS), and cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) occurring during pregnancy and puerperium at 3 Indianapolis hospitals.
