Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs), such as apixaban, dabigatran, edoxaban and rivaroxaban, are the recommended primary therapy in preventing acute ischemic stroke (AIS) in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation. However, despite the high effectiveness of DOACs, an annual AIS risk of 1-2% endures. Intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) and mechanical thrombectomy (MT) are interventions capable of reducing AIS-related morbidity and augmenting the prospects of functional recovery. Nevertheless, DOAC intake within 48-hours preceding IVT is deemed as a (relative) contraindication due to the presumed heightened risk of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH). Despite the strength of this recommendation, the current amount of evidence remains insufficient. Therefore this study investigates the cohort of affected patients otherwise eligible for IVT, aiming to determine whether the benefits of reperfusion therapy might outweigh the associated risk of hemorrhagic transformation.

The purpose of the study to classify and buid up a register for the mitochondrial patients diagnosed in the Neurology clinic. Furthemor, morphological analysis of the muscle biosy specimens.

During the study we analyze the clinical, genetic and muscle biopsy findings of patients with myotonic dystrophy.
