Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter Study
Prognostic significance of perihematomal edema in acute intracerebral hemorrhage: pooled analysis from the intensive blood pressure reduction in acute cerebral hemorrhage trial studies.
Controversy exists over the prognostic significance of perihematomal edema (PHE) in intracerebral hemorrhage. We aimed to determine the association of early PHE and clinical outcome among participants of the Intensive Blood Pressure Reduction in Acute Cerebral Hemorrhage Trial (INTERACT) studies. ⋯ URL: http://www.clinicaltrials.gov.

Randomized Controlled Trial
Atrial premature beats predict atrial fibrillation in cryptogenic stroke: results from the EMBRACE trial.
Many ischemic strokes or transient ischemic attacks are labeled cryptogenic but may have undetected atrial fibrillation (AF). We sought to identify those most likely to have subclinical AF. ⋯ URL: http://www.clinicaltrials.gov. Unique identifier: NCT00846924.

Randomized Controlled Trial
Blood-brain barrier compromise does not predict perihematoma edema growth in intracerebral hemorrhage.
There are limited data on the extent of blood-brain barrier (BBB) compromise in acute intracerebral hemorrhage patients. We tested the hypotheses that BBB compromise measured with permeability-surface area product (PS) is increased in the perihematoma region and predicts perihematoma edema growth in acute intracerebral hemorrhage patients. ⋯ URL: http://www.clinicaltrials.gov.
