Feature Review Papers in Stroke and Cerebrovascular Disease

Dear Colleagues,

The Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease is planning to launch a Special Issue that focuses on stroke and cerebrovascular disease. This Issue, we will highlight some of the recent developments in the pathophysiology, diagnosis and management of transient ischaemic attack, ischaemic stroke, intracerebral and subarachnoid haemorrhage and cerebral venous thrombosis. These topics could include genetics, risk factors, epidemiology, imaging and other diagnostic tools, as well as various treatment modalities in the acute, subacute, and rehabilitative phases as well as in the long-term. For this Special issue, entitled “Reviews in Stroke and Cerebrovascular Disease”, we invite you to contribute review articles in these and related areas to assist clinicians treating patients with strokes, as well as stroke researchers., as they strive to better manage their patients. Additionally, any new impactful knowledge that may reduce the risk, morbidity and mortality of this increasingly prevalent illness that is placing tremendous burdens on stroke survivors, family, community healthcare and social systems is welcome.

Dr. Narayanaswamy Venketasubramanian
