ABSTRACT NUMBER: ESOC2026YS109 PROGNOSTIC IMPACT OF SEQUENTIAL SERUM BIOMARKERS AND MULTIMODAL CT IMAGING ON CLINICAL OUTCOMES AFTER EXTENDED-WINDOW MECHANICAL THROMBECTOMY IN ACUTE ISCHEMIC STROKE

Elena Costru-Tasnic, Olga Gavriliuc, Adriana Arabadji, Teacă Irina et autres

Abstract Background and aims Clinical outcome prognostic of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients undergoing mechanical thrombectomy (MT) beyond 6 hours from symptom onset remains challenging. While multimodal CT provides valuable information about brain parenchyma status, biological processes such as inflammation, hemostatic disturbances, …

ABSTRACT NUMBER: ESOC2026A843 IMPACT OF PRE-EXISTING PARKINSON’S DISEASE ON ACUTE STROKE SEVERITY, COMPLICATIONS, AND EARLY OUTCOMES: A MATCHED RETROSPECTIVE COHORT STUDY

Valeria Bugaian, Adriana Arabadji, Teacă Irina, Mihail Gavriliuc et autres

Abstract Background and aims The impact of pre-existing Parkinson’s disease (PD) on the clinical course and recovery from acute ischemic stroke is not well defined. This study compared in-hospital complications, early functional outcomes, and neurological improvement between stroke patients with and without …

ABSTRACT NUMBER: ESOC2026A840 CLINICAL AND PARACLINICAL PREDICTORS OF POOR FUNCTIONAL RECOVERY AFTER INTRAVENOUS THROMBOLYSIS IN PATIENTS WITH ACUTE ISCHEMIC STROKE

Teacă Irina, Adriana Arabadji, Mihail Gavriliuc, Elena Costru-Tasnic et autres

Abstract Background and aims Intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) represents a standard reperfusion therapy for acute ischemic stroke; however, functional outcomes at 3 months remain variable. Identification of independent predictors of unfavorable outcome may support early prognostic stratification and clinical decision-making. Aim To identify …

ABSTRACT NUMBER: ESOC2026A536 MEDICAL STAFF TRAINING IS ASSOCIATED WITH IMPROVED PATIENT OUTCOMES IN ACUTE STROKE CARE

Cătălina Gutu, Ina Cojocaru, Anjelica Dumitrascu, Vladimir Dolghi et autres

Abstract Background and aims Data suggest that training of medical staff within organised stroke-unit care reduces door-to-needle time by 10-20 minutes and may improve clinical outcomes. In January 2025, acute stroke care protocols were updated and simulation-based training was implemented for emergency …

The role of serum biomarkers in predicting futile recanalization and functional outcome in patients with ischemic stroke undergoing mechanical thrombectomy

Elena Costru-Tasnic, Olga Gavriliuc, Adriana Arabadji, Irina Teacă et autres

Introduction: Despite the technical success of mechanical thrombectomy (MT) in patients with acute ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion, over 60% of patients remain with poor functional outcomes ("futile recanalization"). Early identification of high-risk patients represents a clinical priority. Objective: To …

When Parkinson is Not Parkinson - Diagnostic and Management Challenges of Essential Tremor: Case Series from the Movement Disorders Center

Mădălina Cebuc, Elena Costru-Tasnic, Olga Gavriliuc

Introduction: Tremor (Tr), a rhythmic and involuntary movement characteristic of disorders such as essential tremor (ET) and Parkinson's disease (PD), can be a source of confusion for general neurologists. The aim of this study was to identify the difficulties associated with the …

The role of ASPECTS score, atrial fibrillation, and revascularization therapy in predicting hemorrhagic transformation of ischemic stroke: results from a prospective cohort study

Elena Costru-Tasnic, Mihail Gavriliuc, Odainic Olesea, Elena Manole

Introduction Hemorrhagic transformation (HT) can seriously complicate and worsen the clinical outcome of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients. Atrial fibrillation (AF), larger stroke volumes, and reperfusion therapy are associated with increased risk for HT in AIS. The aim of our research was …
