Individualized Interpretation of FLAIR Vessel Hyperintensity in Ischemic Stroke and Transient Ischemic Attack: A Systematic Review

This systematic review examines FLAIR vessel hyperintensity (FVH), an imaging finding reflecting critically slowed blood flow in large artery steno-occlusions, and its clinical significance for predicting prognosis, stroke severity, infarction volume, and functional outcomes in acute ischemic stroke and TIA. The authors address conflicting findings in the literature and propose key factors for individualizing clinical interpretation of this neuroimaging marker to guide clinical decision-making.

Accelerated Biological Aging as a Predictor of Short- and Long-term Stroke Outcomes in Ischemic Stroke and TIA Patients

This prospective study of 7,396 stroke/TIA patients from China found that accelerated biological age—calculated using three established algorithms (PhenoAge, Klemera-Doubal, HD)—is associated with increased risk of poor stroke outcomes both short- and long-term. Patients with the highest PhenoAge acceleration showed nearly double the risk of adverse events compared to those with the lowest acceleration.

Preventability of Ischemic Stroke and Transient Ischemic Attack in a Tertiary Care Center in Argentina

This retrospective study evaluated patients with acute ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack to assess how many cases could have been prevented through better management of vascular risk factors such as hypertension, dyslipidemia, atrial fibrillation, and smoking. The researchers developed a 10-point preventability scale to classify the degree to which each event was avoidable based on the optimization of modifiable risk factors at presentation.
