International Journal of Stroke, Ahead of Print. Objective:Hypotension is recognized as a common complication after carotid artery stenting, but its incidence and the risk factors associated with it are uncertain. Therefore, we performed a systematic r…
International Journal of Stroke, Ahead of Print. The rate of stroke-related death and disability is four times higher in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) than in high-income countries (HICs), yet stroke units exist in only 18% of LMICs, compare…

International Journal of Stroke, Ahead of Print. Remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) is the application of brief periods of ischemia to an organ or tissue with the aim of inducing protection from ischemia in a distant organ. It was first developed as a …
International Journal of Stroke, Ahead of Print. Rationale:Mechanical thrombectomy (MT), the standard of care for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) secondary to large vessel occlusion (LVO), is generally not offered to patients with large baseline infarct (c…
International Journal of Stroke, Ahead of Print. Background:Embolic stroke of undetermined source (ESUS) refers to ischemic stroke where the underlying cause of thromboembolism cannot be found despite the recommended diagnostic workup. Unidentified sou…
International Journal of Stroke, Ahead of Print. Background:Whether thrombolysis improves outcomes in non-arteritic central retinal artery occlusion (naCRAO) is uncertain. We aimed to evaluate the rate of visual recovery after intra-venous thrombolysis…

International Journal of Stroke, Ahead of Print. Background:Valproate is a candidate for ischemic stroke prevention due to its anti-atherosclerotic effects in vivo. Although valproate use is associated with decreased ischemic stroke risk in observation…
International Journal of Stroke, Ahead of Print. Cerebral microinfarcts (CMIs) are small ischemic lesions invisible to the naked eye at brain autopsy, while the larger ones (0.5–4 mm in diameter) have been visualized in-vivo on magnetic resonance imagi…
