Improvement in aphasia scores after stroke is well predicted by initial severity.

abstract：BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:Numerous studies indicate that mild hypothermia provides substantial neuroprotection. However, current systems transfer insufficient heat to rapidly vary core temperature. We thus evaluated the safety and efficacy of endovascular cooling and rewarming for the induction and reversal of hypothermia...
