Summary: This study demonstrated the feasibility of rapidly assessing perfusion-diffusion mismatch in childhood AIS using automated software and identified some children with favorable mismatch profiles. The results suggest potential therapeutic benefit of RAPID use beyond the standard 4.5 hours window for thrombolysis. Further research is needed to determine the utility of perfusion-based imaging for guiding clinical decision making, whether adult thresholds need modification in childhood AIS, and the impact of time-delay and cause on mismatch characteristics.

Summary: The study aimed to compare the performance of AI-enhanced ultrafast MRI protocol with the reference protocol in the management of AIS. The results showed that the AI-enhanced ultrafast MRI protocol allowed for effective detection and characterization of AIS and differential diagnoses in less than 2 minutes.

Summary: The study compared the performance of a deep learning-based automatic software tool (eDWI-ASPECTS) with neuroradiologists' evaluation in assessing acute stroke, focusing on 10 ASPECTS regions. Overall, eDWI-ASPECTS demonstrated strong positive correlation and excellent agreement with manual raters, but discrepancies were found in certain individual ASPECTS regions, likely due to uncertain scoring rules and midline shift interference.

Summary: Ischemic stroke is a major threat to global health. Thrombolysis is the primary treatment for acute ischemic stroke, but it may cause bleeding and secondary damage. Accurately assessing collateral circulation and predicting the risk of thrombolytic hemorrhage are essential for treatment decisions and prognosis. This study reports a dual-targeted magnetic resonance imaging nanoprobe that can visualize cerebral collateral circulation and ischemic inflammation.

Summary: Magnetic resonance fingerprinting (MRF) arterial spin labeling (ASL) allows simultaneous estimation of cerebral blood flow (CBF), bolus arrival time (BAT), and tissue T-1 map, and may provide a new approach for quantitative hemodynamic and structural imaging in ischemic stroke, aiding in the detection of hemodynamic and structural damage, as well as in predicting neurological deficits and disability in patients.

Summary: This study aimed to assess the temporal dynamics of neurometabolites and their value in predicting early vs. late hyperacute stroke. NAA and creatine were significantly lower in subacute stroke compared to acute stroke. NAA was lower in late hyperacute patients and inversely correlated with time from symptom onset. Combining NAA, creatine, and choline signals improved discrimination.

Summary: In childhood arterial ischemic stroke patients, larger infarct volume and younger age at stroke onset are associated with poorer outcomes, but the strength of these relationships is weak. Specific infarct locations are significantly associated with poorer outcomes, but lose significance when adjusted for infarct volume.

Summary: This study assessed the interobserver agreement on the presence and types of intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) in patients treated with reperfusion therapy using magnetic resonance imaging. The results showed that the presence of any ICH can be reliably scored on magnetic resonance imaging, and there is substantial agreement on the types of ICH according to the Heidelberg Bleeding Classification.

Summary: Molecular MRI can detect vascular inflammation after acute ischemic stroke, providing complementary information for treatment decision-making. In the study, it was found that VCAM-1 expression significantly increased at 6 hours post-recanalization and declined after 24 hours, but remained elevated in lesion borderzones.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the prognostic value of fluid-attenuated inversion recovery vessel hyperintensity (FVH) in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) receiving medical therapy. The presence of FVH, along with larger infarct volume and higher FVH grade, was found to predict poor long-term functional outcomes in patients with large vessel stenosis (LVS).

Summary: The study developed a pH-sensitive theranostic nanoplatform for the precise delivery of rapamycin to ischemic brain tissues, enhancing therapeutic accuracy and enabling multimodal imaging for drug distribution monitoring. The nanoparticles showed good stability and biocompatibility, with the potential for neuroprotection in rats with transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAO). This pH-sensitive multifunctional nanoplatform could be a promising solution for the accurate in vivo imaging and treatment of acute ischemic stroke and other diseases.

Summary: This study discussed a rare case of a 25-year-old male with adult-onset SSPE presenting with tonic seizures accompanying myoclonic seizures. The patient was treated with clonazepam and an isoprinosine regimen. Adult-onset SSPE with tonic seizures is rare and recognizing this type of motor seizures is crucial for patient management.

Summary: This study aimed to assess the association between lower UA concentrations and PD risk, investigate its relationship with patients' demographic and clinical data, and determine the compatibility of previous studies with the Turkish-sampled population. The study found a correlation between low UA concentrations and PD, but UA is not a strong indicator for predicting PD risk.

Summary: This study aimed to determine the relationship between severity of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) and cognitive functions, and to investigate the effect of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment on cognitive functions. The results showed that disease severity negatively affected long-term logical memory, sustained attention, and verbal fluency, and significant improvement was observed in all cognitive areas with CPAP treatment.

Summary: This study evaluated the association between the functional single nucleotide polymorphism rs1611115 in the DBH gene and early-onset Parkinson's disease (EOPD) in the Turkish population, finding no significant differences in genotypic and allelic frequencies between EOPD patients and healthy controls. Further studies are needed to determine the role of dopamine metabolism-related genetic variants in EOPD susceptibility in the Turkish population.
