With sSVD, a delay time (DT) > 3 s from ddSVD was the optimal for both GM (AUC: 0.78) and WM (AUC: 0.75). Using tissue-specific thresholds for GM/WM provides more accurate estimation of acute ischemic core.]]> Tue 11 Oct 2022 14:27:33 AEDT ]]> 'Salvaged' stroke ischaemic penumbra shows significant injury: studies with the hypoxia tracer FMISO https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:18166 50% of neurons within the sample. To determine whether FMISO retention occurred after the tissue was already committed to infarction, FMISO was administered 4 to 6 hours after the onset of permanent vessel occlusion. Intense FMISO retention was consistently seen throughout the infarct core. In conclusion, FMISO retention occurs both within the ischaemic penumbra and within the early infarct core. Most penumbral tissues show evidence of selective cellular injury.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:04:38 AEDT ]]> Influence of occlusion site and baseline ischemic core on outcome in patients with ischemic stroke https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:48518 p < 0.001). Vessel occlusion location was not a strong predictor of outcomes compared to baseline ischemic core (area under the curve, mRS 0-1, 0.64 vs 0.83; mRS 0-2, 0.70 vs 0.86, p < 0.001). There was no interaction between occlusion location and ischemic core (interaction coefficient 1.00, p = 0.798). Conclusions: Ischemic stroke patients with a distal occlusion have higher rate of excellent and favorable outcome than patients with an M1 occlusion. The baseline ischemic core was shown to be a more powerful predictor of functional outcome than the occlusion location, but the relationship between ischemic core and outcome does not different by occlusion locations.]]> Mon 20 Mar 2023 17:06:46 AEDT ]]> Identification of corticospinal tract lesion for predicting outcome in small perfusion stroke https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:46879 Mon 05 Dec 2022 14:09:44 AEDT ]]>
