Abstract:
Pediatric arterial ischemic stroke (AIS) and hemorrhagic stroke represent a relatively uncommon yet significant source of neurological challenges for neonates and children, resulting in outcomes such as hemiparesis, intellectual disabilities, and epilepsy. The etiology of pediatric strokes differs from the typical causes seen in adult stroke cases. Therefore, understanding the specific risk factors associated with strokes in children is crucial for facilitating early diagnosis, which regrettably remains frequently delayed. AIS incidence varies due to factors such as patient age, types of cereb

Ischemic stroke is a heterogeneous syndrome with a plurality of potential etiological factors. The routine diagnosis does not always allow the cause of acute cerebrovascular accident to be found, in such cases we talk about cryptogenic ischemic stroke, which incidence is 20-40%. The category of patients with cryptogenic stroke was first characterized and assigned to a separate group in the database of the National Institute of Neurological Diseases and Stroke in the USA, and later in the TOAST study.

Abstract Background Even though stroke is rare in children, it is associated with serious or life-threatening consequences. Despite its rarity, the occurrence of stroke in children has age-related differences in risk factors, etiopathogenesis, and clinical presentations. Unlike adults, who have arteriosclerosis as the major cause of stroke, risk factors for pediatric strokes are multiple, including cardiac disorders, infection, prothrombotic disorders, moyamoya disease, moyamoya syndrome, and others. The goal of the current study was to compare the characteristics, clinical features, etiology,

BackgroundThe mechanism and characteristics of a post-transplantation stroke may differ between liver (LT) and kidney transplantation (KT), as the associated comorbidities and peri-surgical conditions are different. Herein, we investigated the characteristics and etiologies of stroke occurring after LT and KT.MethodsConsecutive patients who received LT or KT between January 2005 to December 2020 who were diagnosed with ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke after transplantation were enrolled.

Abstract:
Background: Ischemic stroke can arise from various etiologies, such as cardioembolism, atherosclerosis, small vessel disease or cryptogenic. Accurate identification of stroke etiology is vital for secondary stroke prevention. Accumulating evidence suggests that an imbalance of neuroprotective and neuroinflammatory cytokines may contribute to stroke outcomes. Interleukin-2 receptor subunit α (IL-2Rα), a cell surface protein that regulates lymphocyte activation, has been shown to have either pro-atherosclerotic or atheroprotective roles through activation of lymphocytes or regulatory T cells, re

Background: Stroke and cancer are two of the most common health problems. Moreover, stroke is more common in patients with cancer than in the normal population, due to coagulation problems. Knowing the etiology of stroke is important for determining treatment options.

Abstract:
Introduction: The diagnostic workup of stroke doesn’t identify an underlying cause in two-fifths of ischemic strokes. Intracranial arteriosclerosis is acknowledged as a cause of stroke in Asian and Black populations, but is underappreciated as such in whites. We explored the burden of Intracranial Artery Calcification (IAC), a marker of intracranial arteriosclerosis, as a potential cause of stroke among white patients with recent ischemic stroke or TIA. Patients and methods: Between December 2005 and October 2010, 943 patients (mean age 63.8 (SD ± 14.0) years, 47.9% female) were recruited, of

Abstract:
Determining the cause of stroke is considered one of the main objectives in evaluating a stroke patient in clinical practice. However, ischemic stroke is a heterogeneous disorder and numerous underlying disorders are implicated in its pathogenesis. Although progress has been made in identifying individual stroke etiology, in many cases underlying mechanisms still remain elusive. Since secondary prevention strategies are tailored toward individual stroke mechanisms, patients whose stroke etiology is unknown may not receive optimal preventive treatment. Cardioembolic stroke is commonly defined a

Abstract:
Introduction: Around 25-40% of ischemic strokes are cryptogenic or strokes of undetermined etiology. Determination of stroke etiology can be challenging, requiring extensive diagnostic testing including long term monitoring for occult atrial fibrillation. Recent studies suggest that inflammation (monocytes/ macrophages driven) and fibrosis in the atrial substrate leads to atrial fibrillation/ cardioembolic strokes. Therefore, we hypothesized that clots collected from patients with cardioembolic stroke during thrombectomy will have increased myeloid derived inflammatory cells as compared to oth

Summary Background Despite extensive diagnostic efforts, the etiology of stroke remains unclear in up to 30% of patients. Mechanical thrombectomy (MT) potentially enhances etiological determination by (immuno)histological analysis of retrieved thrombotic material. Methods In this monocentric exploratory study, clots from 200 patients undergoing MT were investigated by hematoxylin and eosin, CD3, and CD45 staining.
