Association of early seizures after ischemic stroke with diffusion-weighted imaging-alberta stroke program early CT score (DWI-ASPECTS) and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio
CONCLUSION: DWI-ASPECTS and NLR are associated with the occurrence of early PSS after cortical ischemic stroke. A combination of these predictors had higher sensitivity and specificity for PSS rather than each factor alone. These findings may be helpful for determining the risk of PSS if validated in future studies.PMID:38640725 | DOI:10.1016/j.yebeh.2024.109752 (Source: Epilepsy and Behaviour)

Association between repeat imaging and readmission in patients with acute ischemic stroke: a 16-year nationwide population-based study
CONCLUSIONS: Repeat brain imaging of patients with stroke has increased in recent years, and it is associated with certain factors including age, length of stay, use of rt-PA, hospital level of care, and NIHSS score. It is also associated with increased readmission.ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE: Knowledge of the associations of repeat imaging may help clinicians use repeat imaging more carefully and efficaciously.PMID:38640490 | DOI:10.1093/bjr/tqae082 (Source: The British Journal of Radiology)

Risk and benefit of reinitiating antiplatelet therapy after spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage: a systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSIONS: Based on the findings, reinitiating antiplatelet therapy after spontaneous ICH appears to be generally safe. However, the benefits in terms of reducing the risk of all-cause mortality are not evident and require confirmation through large-scale, long-term, prospective, randomized controlled trials.PMID:38639508 | DOI:10.26355/eurrev_202404_35897 (Source: European Review for Medical and Pharmacological Sciences)

The factors influencing the occurrence of post-ischemic stroke depression and its relationship with the burden score of cerebral small vessel disease
CONCLUSIONS: Age, MMSE score, BI index, NIHSS score, plasma fibrinogen concentration, homocysteine level, red blood cell distribution width, and CSVD burden score are all major influencing factors in the occurrence of PSD. The combination model based on MMSE, NIHSS, and CSVD scores presented a valuable approach to predicting PSD.PMID:38639507 | DOI:10.26355/eurrev_202404_35896 (Source: European Review for Medical and Pharmacological Sciences)
