Hyperglycemia is often found in acute stroke, even in cases without a history of diabetes mellitus [3].
It causes lactic acidosis, tissue acidosis and exerts direct neurotoxicity. Hyperglycemia worsens functional outcome of cerebral ischemia and influences negatively the cognitive state of patients in the acute phase of ischemic stroke [3] by impairing mainly the executive functions [18]. According to our results baseline hyperglycemia was a significant determinant of cognitive impairment at discharge due to its positive correlation with systolic arterial hypertension (Rs=0.358; p=0.016).

The subject is a 86-year old female presenting with sudden loss of consciousness lasting few seconds after flexing neck. After the episode the patient remained with dizziness and vertigo.
Her previous medical history displayed hypertension.
At admission, she presented with right apendicular ataxia and left homonymous hemyanopsia. She performed skull computadorized tomography (CT), which revealed a large ischemic zone in right cerebellar hemisphere and ipsilateral occipital lobe. TCD was then performed before and during mechanical maneuvers. The vessel chosen was the posterior cerebral artery. There was an important amplitude in mean flow velocity: 38 cm/s before maneuver, 20 cm/s during cervical flexion and rotation maneuver (reduction of 48%); 50 cm/s after assuming neutral position (increase in 24% – reactive hyperemia).

The authors concluded that Fabry disease patients of both genders, without prior
history
of stroke or transient ischemic attack, may have disturbed neurovascular coupling in the visual cortex, as well as decreased resting posterior cerebral artery BFV.
Functional transcranial Doppler can also be useful for evaluating presymptomatic and even prelesional subjects with genetic diseases affecting the endothelial function. As cerebrovascular disease is known to progress asymptomatically in the early stages of Fabry disease, a cohort of patients from families with the classical phenotype were studied with functional transcranial Doppler.
The authors concluded that Fabry disease patients of both genders, without prior history of stroke or transient ischemic attack, may have disturbed neurovascular coupling in the visual cortex, as well as decreased resting posterior cerebral artery BFV.
These findings support the role of functional TCD, along with duplex ultrasound and MR techniques, in the evaluation of these patients, since early stages of disease [4]. Finally, interesting findings seem to show that cerebral blood flow regulation may reflect the neurological dysfunction caused by cerebral microvascular disease [22, 23]. Data from the MOBILIZE Boston study shows that changes in CBF velocity responses to an N-Back task to study the NVC was significantly associated with gait speed and that subjects with higher NVC were able to suppress the negative relationship between white matter hyperintensities and gait speed [23]. A better understanding of the relationship between cerebral hemodynamics and structural changes in the aging brain is an essential step towards identifying preventive and therapeutic strategies

A 41 year old right-handed man presented with acute onset of inability to speak and right-sided weakness.
His previous medical history included hypertension, hyperlipidemia, aortic regurgitation (2 grade) and mitral regurgitation (1 grade).
Two years ago he suffered anterior ST elevation myocardial infarction, with primary PCI: PTCA/stent on proximal LAD. The patient was on two antihypertensive medications, a statin, a beta-blocker and antiplatelet therapy (Clopidogrel) 75mg/day. The patient was not a candidate for tPa because of the inability to determine the time of onset of symptoms. At admission, his blood pressure was 140/90 mmHg, regular heart rate of 95/min, central right facial palsy, aphasia with right-sided hemiplegia. Initial brain CT showed a small post-ischemic zone in the left parietal lobe.

Patients with ≥ 70% stenosis and stroke

Patients with ≥ 70% stenosis and stroke history have always been considered the best candidates for carotid surgery.
Any benefit of surgery for other patients has not been proven. Recent literature cast doubts on the necessity of surgical treatment for all patients with even severe carotid stenosis but selection criteria are to be more defined. Therefore cerebral autoregulation (CA), being one of the most important factors of the compensatory capacity of the cerebral hemodynamics, seems to be useful in proper choice between surgery and conservative treatment.

Afterwards fibrinolytic therapy was administered as per protocol for the treatment of ischemic stroke, with good tolerance of the drug and a good therapeutic response. Nine hours after the administration of the drug almost complete recovery of right motor deficit was present, with persisting speech difficulties. Treatment was continued with low molecular weight heparin.

The study was performed in 31 clinically healthy volunteers (17 men and 14 women, ranged from 22 to 97 years, mean age 51±20 years) without history of ophthalmic disorders or neuro-ophthalmic syndromes.
The optic nerves were evaluated by multimodal 2D/3D/4D neurosonography at power output ranged from 50% to 100%. The diameters of the optic nerve/sheath complex and their ratio were measured 3 mm behind the globe. The effect of refractive error was tested experimentally by changing of two hydrophilic aspheric contact lenses (+6 and -10 diopters) on the right eye. Correlations between the anthropological factors (age, sex, height, weight and body mass index – BMI), power output, refractive errors (myopia and hypermetropia) and ultrasound parameters of the optic nerves were evaluated.

The present report describes a 35-year-old man with a history of intermittent pain in the left retrobulbar area lasting approximately six months.
The disease debuted with a general infectious syndrome, leftsided exophthalmos with transient visual disturbances and local inflammation of the conjunctiva. The condition was considered initially as conjunctivitis, and later – as TolosaHunt syndrome, which was successfully treated with eye drops, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), antibiotics and three courses of corticosteroids. For the final diagnosis prospective clinical and neuroimaging investigations (2D/3D/4D multimodal neurosonology, CT and MRI of the head) were performed.

A 23-year-old male with dysgenesis of the corpus callosum is examined. The male is adopted, therefore there are no records of his prenatal development.
There is history of a single febrile seizure at 8-months of age, followed by antiepileptic medical treatment with phenobarbital and tegretol since 2-years of age until year 2000.
During that period no imaging studies were made. There are conclusions from routine electroencephalograms (EEG) most of which are normal (last EEG from 1999). According to the father, the patient has poor vocabulary background, cannot execute coordinated activities with both hands, has a periodic migraine accompanied by copious amounts of perspiration and irritability of noise, followed by falling asleep; suffers from various phobias. Sometimes he experiences quivering of the limbs and problem swallowing solid foods. He finished high school with low grades after a lot of extra work.

CAS is less invasive and newer option in the treatment of ACAS. CAS is currently used in patients with ACAS (> 80% stenosis) and with a high surgical risk as long as the complication rate of CAS can be shown to be less than 3%. Nevertheless, Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved CAS for standard surgical risk patients with > 60% stenosis.
Further, indications for CAS also include inability to tolerate general anesthesia for CEA, history of damage to the contralateral vocal cord (previous CEA or neck surgery), previous neck surgery on the ipsilateral side, neck irradiation and restenosis after CEA.
Older patients (>70 years) had worse outcomes with CAS [31] than younger. However the risks of CEA and CAS have been reduced which enhances the overall benefit of these methods [32]. There are a small number of studies, which compare CAS with CEA that achieved the final valuable conclusion.

Hyperglycemia is common during AIS.
Several studies have shown that admission blood glucose is elevated in over 40% of patients with AIS, most commonly among patients with a history of diabetes mellitus [22].
Recent observational studies have found that admission and in-hospital hyperglycemia have worse clinical outcomes than admission and in-hospital normoglycemia [23]. Also, several studies have found an association between AIS hyperglycemia and worse outcomes defined by magnetic resonance imaging infarct volume [24]. Although multiple observational studies consistently found this association, on the basis of such studies it cannot be determined whether this is a cause and effect relationship [20]. Similar to the high blood pressure, there are several detrimental effects of hyperglycemia, such as tissue acidosis, increased blood–brain barrier permeability, decreased vascular reactivity, and risk of hemorrhagic transformation, which are most probably pathophysiological substrates of poor outcome in stroke patients with hyperglycemia. First studies considering the effect of hyperglycemia on stroke outcome have been conducted on animal models [25]; there are many studies and much evidence that acute hyperglycemia predicts increased risk of in-hospital mortality and poor functional recovery after AIS in non-diabetic stroke survivors.

The clinical manifestations of carotid artery dissection are often non-specific, therefore a thorough investigation of a patient's past medical
history
has a critical role in diagnosing radiation-induced carotid artery dissection [21].
Recognition of associated factors facilitates identification of those at risk [17].
The clinical manifestations of carotid artery dissection are often non-specific, therefore a thorough investigation of a patient's past medical history has a critical role in diagnosing radiation-induced carotid artery dissection [21].
Those patients should be closely surveilled and screening may be considered [5, 18]. The condition may progress rapidly, therefore an early diagnosis and appropriate treatment are crucial. Ultrasonographic evaluation plays an important role in the assessment of further treatment and therapeutic procedures (endovascular treatment, antithrombotic therapy). The ultrasound signs of dissection are: mural hematoma and thrombus as a thickened hypoechoic wall, increase in the external caliber of the artery or an intimal flap; the non-specific signs are: stenosis or occlusion with repercussions on haemodynamics [2]. Ultrasound sensitivity is high for most internal carotid artery dissections, as they begin near the carotid bulb in the mid-neck where ultrasound has easier access to the vessel [12]; the principal limitation is the inability to examine the entire vascular axis [3].
