OBJECTIVE
Factors that determine the benefit of stroke units (SU) are unknown. The aim of our study was to analyze whether semi-intensive monitoring during the acute phase of stroke reduces mortality and dependency at long term.
METHODS
We studied patients with an ischemic stroke or intracerebral
The urinary excretion rate of antithrombin III related antigen (AT III RA) was examined in cerebral stroke. The excretion rate of AT III RA in cerebral hemorrhage (CH) was 12.33 +/- 1.61 X 10(-4) ml/min. The patients with CH were further classified into two groups: in group CH-I, whose consciousness
METHODS
A 77-year-old woman suffered an ischemic stroke during an operation, which under narcosis became apparent by large variations in blood pressure. At the same time a myocardial infarction was suspected due to typical ST segment elevations and positive troponin T in the serum.
METHODS
The CT
OBJECTIVE
Dextrorphan hydrochloride is a noncompetitive N-methyl-D-aspartate antagonist that is neuroprotective in experimental models of focal brain ischemia. The purpose of this study was to determine the maximum loading dose and maintenance infusion of dextrorphan hydrochloride that are well
Catatonia is seen in various psychiatric disorders, but also rarely occurs in medical conditions with organic cerebral affection. We present a case of a previously mentally healthy male, who developed catatonia years after a stroke in the right hemisphere. Catatonic symptoms included stupor, mutism,
To determine predictors of outcome we reviewed 226 medical records of patients admitted to Children's National Medical Center with the diagnosis of cerebrovascular disease from 1978 to 1988. Ninety-five cases of stroke were identified by either neuroimaging techniques (87), autopsy (7), or clinical
OBJECTIVE
To assess the prognosis of patients with acute ischemic stroke who require mechanical ventilation and to determine early factors influencing mortality.
METHODS
Prospective observational study.
METHODS
Medical intensive care unit with a cerebrovascular emergency unit in a
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the prevalence of post stroke depression and its association with hospital admission conditions.
METHODS
In this case-control study, 120 patients with ischemic cerebral stroke from Aliebne-Abitaleb Hospital, Rafsanjan, Iran, during 2004-2006 were evaluated. Sixty patients
The authors studied 24 patients admitted to the neurointensive care unit because of clinical deterioration to drowsiness or stupor and midline shift after complete middle cerebral artery infarction (coMCAI) stroke. Fourteen (58%) experienced further deterioration and either underwent hemicraniectomy
We studied the admission rate, risk factors, neurological complications and sequelae of heat stroke (HS) during the 1995 heat wave in Madison, Wisconsin. HS was epidemic in 1995 (2.3 cases/1000 admissions), compared to the ten-fold lower endemic rate in 1994 (0.2/ 1000). There were 11 cases of HS, 9
Gamma aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptor agonists have been shown to have a neuroprotectant effect in reducing infarct size and improving functional outcome in animal models of cerebrovascular disease. However, the sedative effects of GABA receptor agonists have limited their wider application in

A significant percentage of elderly subjects (50%-80%) suffering from sub-acute ischemic cerebrovascular disease, with or without moderate or severe cognitive memory decline and with or without associated behavioral and psychological symptoms, shows a complex syndrome. This syndrome is related to
