@SchreuderFloris Amyloid Angiopathy Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy CAA Foundation Thanks for emphasizing this very important issue that is often underestimated. The brain MRI should also include a hemosiderin sequence and the radiologist/neurologist need to review such T2*/GRE/SWI. Amyloid Angiopathy

Important subgroup analysis of i-DEF trial. As expected, pts with moderate acute ICH volume benefit from an iron chelation therapy, no benefit in people with low or high ICH volumes. Ray of hope for acute ICH treatment, needs a focused RCT Stroke AHA/ASA ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/ST…

Congratulations Gaël Nicolas @Kevin_Cassinari GnBresearch David Wallon et al. - "Increased copy number of APP is sufficient to cause AD and CAA, with likely earlier onset in case of triplication compared with duplication" Neurology Journal ng.neurology.org/content/7/5/e6…

"Overall, a broad range of interventions to lower BP within 7 days of Prevent Brain Bleeds onset had no overall benefit on functional recovery, despite reducing bleeding. The treatment effect appeared to vary according to strategy and agent". Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery and Psychiatry jnnp.bmj.com/content/jnnp/e…

Having an ICH while taking DOACs is a serious problem! Read our recent study to find out which risk factors and neuroimaging markers increase the risk of this devastating disease.
