Abstract: Recent studies suggested that both the Evans index (EI) and the bicaudate index (BI) are predictive markers of central atrophy and, as such, have been inversely associated with cognitive performance. This study investigated whether the… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fnagi.2022.808415
Abstract: Background The previous studies have shown that cognition in patients 4–8 weeks after stroke can predict early functional outcomes after stroke. The analyses of data from the REVASCAT trial proved that stent thrombectomy improves post-morbid… read more here.
