Favourable effect on mortality but disappointing functional outcomes

Screen shot of JAMA Neurology title page for "Optimal Delay Time to Initiate Anticoagulation after AF-Associated Ischemic Stroke", published today. Link to article in the post.
#Stroke. Published! Optimal Delay Time to Initiate Anticoagulation After AF-Associated Ischemic Stroke. The START trial from the Texas Lone Star Stroke Research Consortium @lonestarstroke.bsky.social. Congrats to lead author Dr. Steven Warach and our entire investigative team.

cardiac CT (or TEE for valve stuff) for all patients with acute ischemic stroke in an emboliform pattern on imaging
“A high-risk cardioembolic source was found on CT in 32/375 (8.5%) patients with acute ischemic stroke”

Multiple MEVO trials presented and medical therapy is the victor this time #ISC25
Should patients seen in #SDEC #AmbulatoryCare receive #VTE prophylaxis?
Our data #WarwickMedSchool @susie-shapiro.bsky.social show VTE rate in SDEC as high as hospitalised patients.
Ability to ambulate does NOT equal reduced VTE risk.

🎁 As we wrap up 2024, let's review the most significant stroke research breakthroughs in each month, from practice changing updates to glimpses of the future.
After discovering The Precarious Painter and "chopperlysis," stroke care will never be the same 👇
What a programme….
As the only Jew at my pre-school, naturally I played Mary. I apparently chucked baby Jesus into the manger by his ankle…
This is a valuable initiative. But I can’t help but feel sad that the reason bypass units like these are necessary is in part because we as a wider institution have failed these patients time and time again. Many reasons for this but institutional racism being one.
Interesting info on sickle cell disease ED bypass units.

The trial every stroke physician is waiting for… Thrombolysis on DOACs

Meta-analysis of the three principle large core trials… Favourable functional outcomes at 1 year with no significant difference in mortality… svn.bmj.com/content/earl...
👋 Hey there, neuro peeps! Today we're diving headfirst into the whirlpool of vertigo! 😵💫
Ever felt like the world is spinning around you (and not just in the normal overwhelming way)? Let's unravel this dizzying mystery together!
Let’s gooo--owhooaah!--🌀🧠 #Blutorial #NeuroSky #MedSky
ATTEST-2 now out - tenecteplase vs alteplase for stroke within 4.5h of symptom onset. TNK found to be non inferior with sICH in 2-3%.

Observational study of 1100 patients… Anticoagulant-associated ICH less likely to be associated with CAA

When I started a YouTube channel devoted to #Neuroradiology education, I had no idea that so many people would be interested.
Now it's at nearly 30,000 subscribers. Help me push it over the milestone!

A liberal transfusion strategy compared with a restrictive strategy resulted in a lower rate of unfavorable neurological outcome among patients with acute brain injury.

Over on “the place that must not be named” I am seeing so many posts about #SVIN24 - I am wondering if there were many delegates from outside the US? It looked like a great meeting.
Where is geriatric medicine please?
🙋♀️
I hope they join us soon… 🙏
Is the problem the words or what it represents? If our society wasn’t so inherently ageist then the words wouldn’t be an issue…
Interesting article in AHA Stroke Journal about over-prescription of statins in stroke patients.
No clear evidence of benefit in absence of atherosclerotic disease, and potential to harm.
A reminder that it's important to personalise not protocolise treatment.

I read somewhere that to amplify posts via the algorithm you need to re-post rather than like… Maybe that would help…? I am getting a lot of astronomy too…
