CVST-VITT patients often present with large intracerebral haemorrhages and a high proportion undergoes decompressive surgery. Clinical characteristics, therapeutic manag...
Basilar Artery Occlusion Management: Specialist Perspectives From an Internatio...
Edwards, C; Drumm, B; Siegler, J; Schonewille, W; Klein, P; Huo, X; Chen, Y; Abdalkader, M; Qureshi, M; Strbian, D; Liu, X; Hu, W; Ji, X; Li, CBackground and purpose: Two early basilar artery occlusion (BAO) randomized controlled trials did not establish the superiority of endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) over medical management. While many providers continue to recommend EVT for acute BAO, perceptions of equipoise in randomizing patients with BAO to EVT versus medical management may differ between clinician specialties. Methods: We conducted an intern...
Global Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Cerebral Venous Thrombosis and Mortality
Nguyen, T; Qureshi, M; Klein, P; Yamagami, H; Abdalkader, M; Mikulik, R; Sathya, A; Mansour, O; Czlonkowska, A; Lo, H; Field, T; Charidimou, ABackground and purpose: Recent studies suggested an increased incidence of cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. We evaluated the volume of CVT hospitalization and in-hospital mortality during the 1st year of the COVID-19 pandemic compared to the preceding year. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional retrospective study of 171 stroke centers from 49 countries...

Nogueira, RG; Qureshi, MM; Abdalkader, M; Martins, SO; Yamagami, H; Qiu, Z; Mansour, OY; Sathya, A; Czlonkowska, A; Tsivgoulis, G; Aguiar de Sousa, DObjective: To measure the global impact of COVID-19 pandemic on volumes of IV thrombolysis (IVT), IVT transfers, and stroke hospitalizations over 4 months at the height of the pandemic (March 1 to June 30, 2020) compared with 2 control 4-month periods. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional, observational, retrospective study across 6 continents, 70 countries, and 457 stroke centers. Diagnoses were identified ...
