Background and Purpose— Diagnosis of Moyamoya disease (MMD) is based on the characteristic
angiographic findings. However, differentiating MMD from intracranial atherosclerotic …

Background and Purpose— Effective rescue treatment has not yet been suggested in
patients with mechanical thrombectomy (MT) failure. This study aimed to test whether rescue …

Background and Purpose— To investigate the association between thyroid autoantibodies
and moyamoya disease (MMD) in patients with an apparent euthyroid state. Methods— We …

Background and Purpose— Stent retriever (SR) thrombectomy has become the mainstay of
treatment of acute intracranial large artery occlusion. However, it is still not much known …

In this investigation, a nano-sized protein-encapsulated polymeric micelle was prepared by
self-assembling human serum albumin (HSA) as a model protein and degradable block …

A series of pH-responsive polymeric micelles is developed to act as intelligent carriers to
deliver iron oxide (Fe 3 O 4 ) nanoparticles and respond rapidly to an acidic stimuli …

Background and Purpose— Intracranial atherosclerotic stroke (ICAS) has various stroke
mechanisms, including branch occlusive disease (BOD), subcortical infarcts caused by parent …

Objective Dedicated magnetic resonance (MR) imaging (MRI) sequences for evaluation of
collaterals can be generated using MR perfusion (MRP) source data. We compared a novel …

Background Both Moyamoya disease (MMD) and intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (ICAS)
are more prevalent in Asians than in Westerners. We hypothesized that a substantial …

Background and Purpose— Based on its mechanism, the use of balloon guide catheters (BGCs)
may be beneficial during endovascular treatment, regardless of the type of mechanical …
