Do itemized NIHSS subsets predict positive MRI strokes in patients with mild deficits?
NIHSS score subsets predict DWI positivity in mild strokes. The presence of neglect or visual field deficits on the NIHSS subsets is most likely to have an MRI correlate even in patients with low NIHSS.
Based on our results, we do not believe that the vaginal wall sling operation should be recommended for all recurrent genuine stress urinary incontinence cases and especially not for those with factors predictive of surgical failure. Further studies are needed to investigate and clarify the possible causes of failure.
