CONTEXT
Standards for treating patients with asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis have been difficult to establish because of the lack of evidence for factors influencing these patients' prognoses.… Expand
Background and Purpose— The aim of this study was to explore the possible contribution of alterations in cerebral hemodynamics to the evolution of cognitive impairment in patients with Alzheimer… Expand
Background and Objective: A clear association among snoring, sleep apnea, and increased risk of stroke has been shown by previous studies. However, the possible role played by sleep apnea in the… Expand
Background and Purpose— Increasing evidence suggests that inflammatory mechanisms are involved in the intracerebral hemorrhage–induced brain injury. We evaluated the prognostic role of the peripheral… Expand
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE
Recent research has shown that following stroke patients can display ipsilateral activity reflecting a functional link between the undamaged hemisphere and the affected upper… Expand
Impairment of daytime cerebrovascular reactivity in patients with obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome.
Several studies have demonstrated a clear association between snoring, sleep apnoea and increased risk of stroke. However, the possible role of sleep apnoea in the pathophysiogenetic mechanisms of… Expand
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE
Hemodynamic factors seem to play an important role in the pathogenesis of cerebral ischemic events. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether changes in cerebrovascular… Expand
Twenty-two normal volunteers were studied by simultaneous bilateral transcranial Doppler (TCD) monitoring of flow velocity changes in the middle cerebral arteries during visuospatial and verbal… Expand
Abstract Transcranial Doppler ultrasonography (TCD) has been widely used to obtain information about changes in cerebral perfusion during monitor activity after stroke. This type of application is… Expand
Background and Purpose— Evidence suggests that an alteration in cerebral hemodynamics plays a relevant role in the occurrence of stroke in patients with carotid occlusion. The purpose of the present… Expand
