Multiple chronic lacunes predicting early neurological deterioration and long-term functional outcomes according to TOAST classification in acute ischemic stroke
Studies regarding multiple chronic lacunes (MCLs) and clinical outcome according to stroke etiology are scarce. We sought to evaluate the association between MCL and short-term/long-term clinical outcomes acco...

A clinical study of 288 patients with anterior cerebral artery infarction
Acute ischemic stroke in the territory of anterior cerebral artery (ACA) is uncommon. Therefore, large population studies evaluating ACA infarction are scarce. We sought to evaluate epidemiological and etiolog...

Targeted Temperature Management at 36 °C Shows Therapeutic Effectiveness via Alteration of Microglial Activation and Polarization After Ischemic Stroke
Ischemic injury leads to cell death and inflammatory responses after stroke. Microglia especially play a crucial role in this brain inflammation. Targeted temperature management (TTM) at 33 °C has shown neurop...

Blood-brain barrier permeability assessed by perfusion computed tomography predicts hemorrhagic transformation in acute reperfusion therapy
Hemorrhagic transformation (HT) is one of the most feared complications of acute recanalization therapies. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether blood-brain barrier permeability (BBBP) imaging can pred...

Orthostatic hypotension, non-dip** and striatal dopamine in Parkinson disease
Orthostatic hypotension and non-dip** are relatively common autonomic dysfunctions in patients with Parkinson disease (PD). These abnormalities have been thought to occur independently of striatal dopaminerg...

Association between high-sensitivity C-reactive protein and risk of early idiopathic Parkinson’s disease
Although neuroinflammation is known to play an important role in the pathogeneses of neurodegenerative diseases, few studies have been conducted on the association between Parkinson’s disease (PD) and high-sen...

Diffusion-weighted MR imaging of pyogenic intraventricular empyema
Pyogenic intraventricular empyema (PIE) is a potentially fatal CNS infection. However, it is sometimes difficult to diagnose PIE on the basis of clinical and conventional MRI findings. Diffusion-weighted imagi...
