BIO-PREDISC-TIA SWISS Cohort Study

Cerebrovascular DiseaseIschemic Stroke

This research project aims at contributing to improve TIA diagnosis and management by using PREDISC scores and specific biomarkers thought to have elevated levels in TIA patients. A swift and accurate TIA diagnosis allows starting treatment of the patient adequately and shortly after the event. The shorter the time between the event and treatment onset, the better the outcome. This approach will be an important step forward in TIA diagnosis and management, similarly to acute coronary syndrome as discussed above.

Cognitive Impairment , Neuroimaging and Inflammatory Markers in Patients With Subcortical Ischemic...

Other Generalized Ischemic Cerebrovascular Disease

SIVD is characterised by extensive cerebral white matter lesions (WML) and lacunar infarcts in deep grey and white matter structures. The relationship between SIVD and cognition is unclear, in part because of methodological inconsistencies across studies. Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) is a non-invasive water diffusion technique and can be used for quantitatively measuring the degree and directionality of the displacement distribution of water molecules. 1H magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H-MRS) is a valuable tool for the assessment of several biochemical compounds in the brain in vivo, such as N-acetylaspartate (NAA), myoinositol (mI), Choline (Cho) and Creatine (Cr). There were few reports considering the relationship among MRS, DTI and cognitive impairment of SIVD. Combining MRS with DTI may provide valuable information about the pathophysiological changes underlying DTI abnormalities and help us to better understand the SIVD process. It has been proposed that the pathogenesis of SIVD related to cerebral small vessel disease caused by various mechanisms. Inflammation plays an important role in the pathogenesis of SIVD. The examination of inflammatory markers in relation to VaD might be benefit to early treatment. In this study we applied neuropsychological tests, conventional MRI scanning, DTI, 1H-MRS techniques and inflammatory markers to estimate neuropsychological profile and white matter characteristics of imaging in patients with SIVD. Moreover, the relationship between WML and cognitive function impairment was also investigated. It could be possible to gain reliable data which is benefit to early diagnosis and treatment of cognitive impairment in SIVD.

International Intracranial Dissection Study

Cerebrovascular DisordersVascular: Intracranial2 more

Cervicocerebral artery dissection is a major cause for stroke in young adults. While knowledge of cervical artery dissection (CeAD) has increased thanks to a number of high quality studies, knowledge on intracranial artery dissection (IAD) is limited. Due to treatment and publication bias little is known about the natural history of IAD. Overall, IAD is assumed to have a more severe course than CeAD, with a more ominous outcome in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Furthermore, little information is available on the risk of recurrent IAD as well as on the risk of recurrent ischemic and haemorrhagic events in non-Asian patients. Radiological diagnosis of IAD can be challenging given the small size of intracranial arteries, and the subtle and non-specific radiological signs which tend to evolve over time. The optimal treatment of IAD is unknown. There are no randomised trials and only observational studies with relatively small sample sizes are available, thus providing a very low level of evidence. Finding the factors that are decisive for outcome and recurrence after intracranial artery dissection is key to an improved management of this potentially severe disease predominantly affecting young patients. By using standardised protocols for diagnosis, imaging and follow-up, the investigators intend to obtain large representative patient samples in order to fill the gap of evidence.

Association Between Gait Assessed by Intelligent System and Cognitive Function in Silent Cerebrovascular...

Silent Stroke

This study is a multi-center prospective cohort study. We will continuously recruit subjects with silent cerebrovascular disease aged 60 to 85 years from Shanghai and Guizhou. Data including demographic characteristics, medical history, other concomitant diseases, neurological function assessments, laboratory examinations, imaging examinations, and other clinical data and health economics survey responses will be collected from all subjects. At baseline, all subjects will undergo gait assessment using the intelligent system and cognitive function scale assessment by clinicians. According to the intelligent gait results, the subjects will be divided into normal and abnormal gait groups. All subjects will be observed naturally for 1 year, and all medical behaviors will be recorded. All subjects will be interviewed by telephone for the occurrence of vascular events and changes in medical behaviors at half a year after enrollment and followed up at 1 year after enrollment, including gait evaluation using the intelligent system and cognitive function scale evaluation by clinicians. During the follow-up period, patients can visit the hospital for follow-up at any time when their condition changes.

An EHR-based Platform To Facilitate Outcomes and Research Methods in Cerebrovascular Diseases

StrokeCerebrovascular Diseases4 more

In this protocol, the investigators present methods and preliminary results from the PLATFORM-CVD Study, an EHR-based multicenter cohort. This study will focus on assessing the distribution of major cerebrovascular diseases, determining the risk factors associated with disease incidence and worse in-hospital outcomes, as well as describing the quality of care. Data from this cohort will be used to develop suitable prediction models for cerebrovascular diseases using real-world data and to understand how outcomes for cerebrovascular diseases would change with quality improvement interventions.
