Chronic kidney disease and poor outcomes in ischemic stroke: is impaired cerebral autoregulation the missing link?
Castro, Pedro; Azevedo, Elsa; Rocha, Isabel; Sorond, Farzaneh; Serrador, Jorge M. (Springer Nature, 2018-03-02)Background: Chronic kidney disease increases stroke incidence and severity but the mechanisms behind this cerebrorenal interaction are mostly unexplored. Since both vascular beds share similar features, microvascular ... -
Efficacy of cerebral autoregulation in early ischemic stroke predicts smaller infarcts and better outcome
Castro, Pedro; Serrador, Jorge Manuel; Rocha, Isabel; Sorond, Farzaneh; Azevedo, Elsa (Frontiers Media SA, 2017-03-24)Background and purpose: Effective cerebral autoregulation (CA) may protect the vulnerable ischemic penumbra from blood pressure fluctuations and minimize neurological injury. We aimed to measure dynamic CA within 6 h of ...
