Seizure at stroke onset: should it be an absolute contraindication to thrombolysis?
Treatment decisions with regard to thrombolysis in acute stroke patients should be based on parameters of cerebral perfusion, assessment of collateral blood flow and presence of potentially salvageable tissue. Modern neuroimaging techniques that can rapidly assess these variables, such as DWI/PWI MRI and MRA, can improve the current selection of patients who are likely to benefit from thrombolysis and extend its benefit to patients who would otherwise be excluded, such as those with seizures at stroke onset.
Our findings further support ZNF300P1 as frequently methylated in ovarian cancer and reveal a novel function for ZNF300P1 lincRNA expression in regulating cell polarity, motility, and adhesion and loss of expression may contribute to the metastatic potential of ovarian cancer cells.
