Background: Futile reperfusion (FR) is becoming an urgent issue for acute ischemic stroke patients who underwent endovascular treatment (EVT). Although the recanalization rate has improved after EVT, it is far from translating to increased tissue reperfusion and functional independence. Summary: Many underlying mechanisms including the “no-reflow” ...

Because of their individual vulnerabilities, treatment decisions for older patients can be difficult. Geriatric assessment (GA) may help to select patients for systemic treatment, but its value is still unproven. Older cancer patients (≥65 years of age) with and without complex GA followed by discussion in the geriatric-oncologic conference, who ha...

The nucleus basalis of Meynert (nBM) is the major source of cholinergic neurons in the basal forebrain, which require nerve growth factor (NGF) for their survival. Melatonin, a pleiotropic hormone, has been shown to exert neuroprotection in several experimental models, but its effect on nBM neurons is not well known. Thus, the aim of this study is ...
