..We aimed to determine intraobserver and interobserver agreement in the characterization of brain arteriovenous malformation (AVM) angioarchitecture on intra-arterial digital subtraction angiograms...

....

..We aimed to quantify these risks and investigate whether they are affected by sex and CCM location...

..The aim of this study was to determine the strength of the association between intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) and cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) in a systematic review of published neuropathological studies...

..We sought to evaluate the delays, between-centre variations in practice, and opportunity costs attributable to delays in research governance approval of clinical trials in the United Kingdom...

..CONCLUSION: Because of the five balance between the potential perils and benefits of the unselective use of brain MRI for 'health check-ups', its use should be restricted to a research setting...

..To determine the imaging and demographic characteristics of intracranial haemorrhages, which are subsequently found to be due to an underlying intracranial vascular malformation (IVM)...

..To improve the validity of future research, we aimed to develop a robust definition of CM hemorrhage...

..Following the introduction of a weekly rapid access neurology clinic, the most common problems seen were headache, symptoms that turned out to be medically unexplained and epileptic seizure...

..jnnp.com, where there are also freely accessible hypertext links to the recommended sites...

..Therefore, we established the Scottish Intracranial Vascular Malformation Study (SIVMS) to monitor detection and long-term prognosis of people with IVMs...

..The rarity of intracranial vascular malformations (IVMs) and the infrequency of their outcomes make large, prolonged cohort studies the best means to evaluate their frequency and prognosis...

..The further progress of clinical neurology on the world wide web will be monitored in JNNP Neuronline fillers and JNNP Neurology in Practice supplements...

..To evaluate the differences between adults who consent to participate in observational research, and those who do not...

..To conduct a population based study of brain arteriovenous malformation (AVM) prevalence...

..Screening may be worthwhile for people with two or more FDRA by aSAH. Little is known about the characteristics of people with a family history of aSAH who undergo screening in clinical practice...

..Although intracranial vascular malformations (IVMs) are the leading cause of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) in young adults, there has not been a cost-of-illness study on an unselected cohort...

..The extent of variation in the interventional treatment of brain arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) is unknown, so we explored patterns of treatment at 4 neuroscience centers in one European country...

..To compare the risk of epileptic seizures in adults during conservative management or following invasive treatment for a brain arteriovenous malformation (AVM)...

..Reported risks of hemorrhage from intracranial developmental venous anomalies (DVAs) vary, so we investigated this in a systematic review and population-based study...

..We aimed to test whether outcome differs between adults who had interventional AVM treatment and those who did not...

....

..If the diagnostic and prognostic significance of brain microbleeds (BMBs) are to be investigated and used for these purposes in clinical practice, observer variation in BMB assessment must be minimized...

..It is not always clear whether, how, and when to undertake further radiological investigation of spontaneous (nontraumatic) intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH)...

..Upon investigation, a petrous apex dural atriovenous fistula was identified causing profound brainstem venous hypertension. Surgical clipping lead to complete neurological recovery...

..The occurrence and direction of this response, participation or ascertainment bias is unpredictable, and can harm the external validity of medical research...

..We conclude by proposing criteria for ideal study design and reporting...

..Recognition of autoimmune limbic encephalitis is sometimes delayed--usually because the diagnosis has not been considered--which can result in long-term neurological consequences...

..To quantify the prevalence of incidental findings on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain...

..Thrombolysis and secondary prevention have much to offer patients with stroke chameleons, though those with stroke mimics may be harmed by these treatments and have more to gain from other therapies...

....

..Therefore, we systematically reviewed the literature to find studies of nonsurgical treatments tested in animal models of ICH...

..If real, the association may lack generalizability because of the specific characteristics of the cases studied and could be due to reverse causality...
