7 lis 2023 · Our study covers consecutive ischemic strokes involving: (1) onset‐to‐door time within 7 days and (2) available scans from at least a second magnetic resonance imaging procedure at least 14 days after onset.
Patients with a history of immunosuppression should be tested for progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy by cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) examination for the presence of JC virus. A high index of suspicion should remain for neoplasia, including primary central nervous system (CNS) lymphoma and gliomatosis cerebri.
13 maj 2019 · Most small vessel disease is sporadic, perhaps related to hypertension or other vascular risk factors, but a small proportion is due to rare genetic variants, of which the commonest is cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy.
22 lis 2019 · Given the success in preventing stroke in general, with important reductions in incidence and mortality, are new treatments to target cSVD progression even necessary? That they are is supported by the evidence that many patients with cSVD experience progression with cognitive and functional decline despite conventional stroke risk reduction.
21 lut 2024 · Time to treatment may have an effect and varies across RCTs (6–48 h), but in trials with longer time windows analyses stratified on time to treatment are not available in patients with lacunar ischaemic stroke.
White matter disease is an umbrella term for damage to your brain’s white matter caused by reduced blood flow to the tissue. It can cause issues with memory, balance and mobility. People who have risk factors for cardiovascular disease also have a greater risk of developing white matter disease.
Abstract. Purpose of Review: More than 100 heritable disorders can present with abnormal white matter on neuroimaging. While acquired disorders remain a more common cause of leukoencephalopathy in the adult than genetic causes, the clinician must remain aware of features that suggest a possible genetic etiology.
