Randomized Evaluation of Carotid Occlusion and Neurocognition (RECON) trial
Neurol 82:744-751, Marshall, R.S.,et al, 2014
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Cognitive improvement following bypass surgery was not superior to medical therapy among patients with recently symptomatic carotid occlusion and increased OEF. Among those with no recurrent stroke, less hemodynamic impairment at baseline was associated with greater cognitive gain in both groups. Reversing cognitive impairment in hemodynamic failure remains an open challenge.
