New AI software can read the brain scans of patients who have had a stroke to more accurately determine the timing of the stroke and assist physicians in deciding if it can be effectively treated. The aim for this new technology is to provide more prompt and precise emergency treatment for patients in a hospital environment. The importance of knowing when the stroke started is crucial, as standard treatments are only effective in the very early stages following a stroke – any delay could result in further harm. "The problem is that we don't always know exactly when the stroke began," consultant neurologist Dr Paul Bentley, who led the research study, told Reuters. "The challenge is knowing when a stroke has happened and how quickly it's developing over time. And this helps us know when we should be giving these drugs or surgical treatments that can help people but we've got to give these treatments to the right people at the right time," he said. The software, devised by researchers from Imperial College London, Technical University of Munich, and Edinburgh University, addresses two of the most difficult challenges in assessing stroke patients – identifying the onset time of the stroke and whether the damage can be reversed. Dr Bentley, who is also a consultant neurologist at Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust, which has one of eight hyper acute stroke units in London, said the software has been found to be twice as accurate as the current method – a visual assessment of the scan by a medical professional, who considers how dark a stroke area appears on CT scans of the brain. “Our calculations suggest that it means that about 50% more patients will be treated appropriately with the right treatments in the emergency situation," Bentley said. A stroke occurs when the blood supply to part of the brain is blocked or reduced, preventing brain tissue from getting oxygen and nutrients. Brain cells then start to die quickly.

The first Syrian domestic flight to take off from Damascus after the fall of Bashar al-Assad’s rule landed in Aleppo on Wednesday (December 18). Jubilant passengers walked down the plane's stairs smiling and holding the flag adopted by the new Syrian ruling body. Upon landing, the pilot Ali Omar Rida said the hope is for international routes to be restored soon as well, while one of the passengers, Safa Othman, described the joy of being part of such a historic moment, saying she hoped for this event to pave the way for all Syrian youth to travel and return home. The flight, which departed from Damascus International Airport earlier on Wednesday, shortly after it was officially reopened, carried a number of technical operators and members of ‘This is our life’ youth group.

Japan's Space One terminated the flight of its Kairos small rocket shortly after liftoff on Wednesday (December 18), marking the end of its second attempt in nine months to become the country's first company to deliver a satellite to space. The flight, which only lasted about 10 minutes, was terminated because "the achievement of its mission would be difficult", Space One said in an email to reporters. Live images from the local Wakayama prefecture government showed the 18-metre (59 ft) solid-propellant rocket blasting off from Spaceport Kii in western Japan at 11:00 a.m. (0200 GMT) but losing stability in its trajectory as it ascended. Space One is investigating the incident and will host a press conference at 2:00 p.m. local time (0500 GMT), the company said. (Production: Keval Singh)
