Its not just the arteries that are important! Jiang et al show favorable venous outflow may lead to better outcomes following thrombectomy due to decreasing severe ICH bit.ly/4cdXtKM #Stroke #Thrombectomy

What about the heart? Chen at al show chronic mitral regurgitation can mediate the heart-brain interaction and lead to early acute heart failure following mechanical thrombectomy, leading to worse EVT outcomes bit.ly/4dTQTuj #Stroke #Thrombectomy

Quantitative EEG shows significant correlation with NIHSS and infarct volume and highly accurate prediction of early neurological deterioration following mechanical thrombectomy, per Yan et al. bit.ly/3AhZ19d #Stroke #Thrombectomy

Towards a more accurate understanding of recurrent stroke risks in ICAD! Huang et al show that angiographic based quantitative flow ratio and plaque morphology may provide prognostic tools for stroke prediction. bit.ly/4fGl9Kz #Stroke #ICAD

Who remembers their physics? Sidora, Steinmen, et al certainly do as they demonstrate Bernoulli's formula can predict trans-stenotic pressure gradients in venous sinus stenosis. bit.ly/4clxn8K #IIH

A blueprint for the next wave of ambulatory surgery centers in cerebral angiography with lessons from interventional radiology, cardiology, and vascular surgery. Eric Peterson bit.ly/4fEi8us

Higher is better! The ASSIST investigators show high cervical carotid placement of a balloon-guide catheter leads to better recanalization rates in mechanical thrombectomy. bit.ly/4dlCE1u #Stroke #Thrombectomy #BGC

DWI hits occur more frequently with temporary (balloon-coiling) or permanent (stent-coiling, flow diversion) placement of parent artery devices compared with primary coiling or intrasaccular flow disruption while treating unruptured aneurysms bit.ly/3yAWNkP #aneurysms

Don't work harder, work smarter! Open-source large language models can accurately and efficiently extract clinical data from medical reports enhancing clinical documentation and research per Meddeb et al bit.ly/46CgKV5

Nickel containing stents for venous sinus stenting may not create allergic reactions in nickel hypersensitive patients per McGrath et al Michael Levitt, MD bit.ly/4dCzWEe #iih

Hydrophilic polymer-coated flow diverters can be used effectively and safely with prasugrel single antiplatelet therapy in the treatment of ruptured aneurysms per Khanafer et al bit.ly/3YBXF36 #aneurysms #flowdiversion

Knappich et al show that routine embolic protection device use in carotid artery stenting really does lower stroke risks! bit.ly/3YCIUND #stroke #carotidstenting

How low can you go? Eyad Almallouhi Alex Spiotta and others show in a multicenter, retrospective cohort study that mechanical thrombectomy can be beneficial in select patients even with ASPECTS of 0-2 bit.ly/4ciD1Z1 #Stroke #Thrombectomy

The wave of the future? Masuo et al demonstrate the preliminary experience with the first in-human, real-time use of AI in aneurysm coiling! bit.ly/4fFfWma #aneurysms #AI

Acute carotid stenting for tandem lesions can be safe and effective in large core infarct patients per the ETIS registry investigators bit.ly/3YDQdo9 #stroke #thrombectomy #tandemlesion #largecore

Rossmann et al provide results of a large series of long-term risks of hemorrhage and complications in the treatment of high-grade intracranial dural AVF, showing low rates of long-term hemorrhage if angiographic occlusion can be achieved bit.ly/46EkhC5 #AVF

When do you stop? The ETIS study group demonstrates successful reperfusion is associated with better outcomes and no higher hemorrhagic risks even after six passes in mechanical thrombectomy compared to unsuccessful reperfusion bit.ly/3SJ7Hfj #stroke #thrombectomy

Asymptomatic intracranial hemorrhage following mechanical thrombectomy is associated with worse clinical outcomes, especially in older patients or those with worse baseline functional statuses, per Zhang et al bit.ly/4dzWN3w #stroke #thrombectomy

🚨 How much EVT volume is enough? Research from @Jpantonios, Ajay Malhotra, M.D., MMM shows that ≥18 EVTs/year, is associated with reduced in-hospital mortality. bit.ly/47df0Sm
