A total of 674 patients diagnosed with acute stroke and treated with revascularization therapies were enrolled. Systolic and diastolic BP values of the first 24 h after stroke were collec...
Aphasia Rapid Test: Translation, Adaptation and Validation Studies for the Port...
Tábuas-Pereira, M; Freitas, S; Beato-Coelho, J; Ribeiro, JA; Parra, J; Martins, C; Silva, M; Matos, MA; Nogueira, AR; Silva, F; Sargento-Freitas, JClassical aphasia evaluation scales are too long to use in the context of acute stroke or as a monitoring tool. The Aphasia Rapid Test is a 26-point scale developed as a bedside assessment to rate aphasia severity in acute stroke patients in less than 3 minutes. We aimed to adapt and validate this scale for European Portuguese.

Amorim, JM; Pereira, D; Rodrigues, MG; Beato-Coelho, J; Lopes, M; Cunha, A; Figueiredo, S; Mendes-Pinto, M; Ferreira, C; Sargento-Freitas, J; Castro, SIntroduction Pathophysiology of cervical artery dissection is complex and poorly understood. In addition to well-known causative and predisposing factors, including major trauma and monogenic connective tissue disorders, morphological characteristics of the styloid process have been recently recognized as a possible risk factor for cervical internal carotid artery dissection. Aims To study the association of th...
