Preserved Corticospinal Tract Revealed by Acute Perfusion Imaging Relates to Better Outcome After Thrombectomy in Stroke

Friedhelm Christoph Hummel, Philipp Johannes Koch

BACKGROUND:The indication for mechanical thrombectomy (MT) in stroke patients with large vessel occlusion has been constantly expanded over the past years. Despite remarkable treatment effects at the group level in clinical trials, many patients remain sev ...

Prediction of post-stroke motor recovery benefits from measures of sub-acute widespread network damages

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Maria Giulia Preti, Elvira Pirondini, Cyprien Alban Félicien Rivier

Rivier et al. report that global measures of brain connectivity estimated by introducing virtual lesions in healthy structural connectomes significantly increase the accuracy of motor recovery prediction in stroke patients when added to focal and clinical ...

Towards patient-tailored interventions for stroke recovery: graph theoretical approaches and modeling of non-invasive brain stimulation

Giorgia Giulia Evangelista

Stroke is a disease that causes the death of precious brain cells that will never grow back and which will affect one in four humans at some point in their life. While therapies and treatments for this debilitating condition are fairly standard, their outc ...

Predictive models for response to non-invasive brain stimulation in stroke: A critical review of opportunities and pitfalls

Philip Egger, Friedhelm Christoph Hummel, Maximilian Jonas Wessel

Background: Noninvasive brain stimulation has been successfully applied to improve stroke impairments in different behavioral domains. Yet, clinical translation is limited by heterogenous comes within and across studies. It has been proposed to develop and ...
