Stroke center certification has evolved at a rapid pace and is now available at 4 different
levels of service in the United States. Although certification standards provide guidance on …

Background The treatment of acute ischemic stroke is traditionally centered on time criteria,
although recent evidence suggests that physiologic neuroimaging may be useful. In a …

Differential rhodopsin gene expression within specialized R7 photoreceptor cells divides the
retinas of Aedes aegypti and Anopheles gambiae mosquitoes into distinct domains. The two …

Background and purpose Intra-arterial therapy (IAT) is most effective when performed
rapidly after ischemic stroke onset. However, there are limited performance benchmarks in …

Objective The safety and efficacy of intra-arterial treatment (IAT) in patients with acute
ischemic stroke (AIS) due to cervical artery dissection (CeAD) has not been formally studied …

Visual perception of the environment plays an important role in many mosquito behaviors.
Characterization of the cellular and molecular components of mosquito vision will provide a …

The retina of the mosquito Aedes aegypti can be divided into four regions based on the non-
overlapping expression of a UV sensitive Aaop8 rhodopsin and a long wavelength sensitive …

Multiple mechanisms contribute to a photoreceptor's ability to adapt to ambient light
conditions. The mosquito Aedes aegypti expresses the long-wavelength rhodopsin Aaop1 in …

The tropical disease vector mosquito Anopheles gambiae possesses 11 rhodopsin genes.
Three of these, GPROP1, GPROP3, and GPROP4, encode rhodopsins with> 99% sequence …

We examined the role of programmed cell death (PCD) pathways in retinal degeneration
caused by a mutation in the norpA gene. norpA degeneration shows morphological …
