Acute ischemic stroke is a common cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide.
Thrombolysis with recombinant tissue plasminogen activator and endovascular …

Remote ischaemic conditioning (RIC) triggers endogenous protective pathways in distant
organs such as the kidney, heart and brain, and represents an exciting new paradigm in …

Objective: This study aims to evaluate protective effects of brief repetitive bilateral arm
ischemic preconditioning (BAIPC) on stroke recurrence in patients with symptomatic …

Background and Purpose—Remote ischemic preconditioning is neuroprotective in models
of acute cerebral ischemia. We tested the effect of prehospital rPerC as an adjunct to …

Stroke is the third cause of death worldwide and the main cause of chronic, severe adult
disability. We focus on acute ischaemic stroke, which accounts for approximately 80% of all …

Stroke is a major cause of death and adult disability. However, therapeutic options remain
limited. Numerous pathways underlie acute responses of brain tissue to stroke. Early events …

After ischaemic stroke, brain damage can be curtailed by rescuing the 'ischaemic penumbra'—
that is, the severely hypoperfused, at-risk but not yet infarcted tissue. Current evidence …

Background Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) initiates endogenous protective
pathways in the brain from a distance and represents a new, promising paradigm in …

Symptomatic intracranial arterial stenosis (SIAS) is very common in octo-and
nonagenarians, especially in the Chinese population, and is likely the most common cause …

Importance Treatment with remote ischemic perconditioning has been reported to reduce
brain infarction volume in animal models of stroke. Whether this neuroprotective effect was …
