Intakes of magnesium, potassium, and calcium and the risk of stroke among men
ConclusionsA diet rich in magnesium, potassium, and calcium may contribute to reduced risk of stroke among men. Because of significant collinearity, the independent contribution of each cation is difficult to define.

Probable REM sleep behavior disorder and risk of stroke: A prospective study
Conclusions: Presence of pRBD was associated with a higher risk of developing stroke, including both ischemic and hemorrhagic types. Future studies with clinically confirmed RBD and a longer follow-up would be appropriate to further investigate this association.

Bone Mineral Density and Incidence of Stroke: European Prospective Investigation Into Cancer-Norfolk Population-Based Study, Systematic Review, and Meta-Analysis Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— Bone mineral density predicts total stroke risk. The evidence is stronger in women with regard to the continuous relationship.

Factors associated with delay in presentation to the hospital for young adults with ischemic stroke (P3.237)
Conclusions: A majority of young adults with ischemic stroke presented outside the time window for intravenous fibrinolysis. Diabetes, single status, and unemployed status were associated with delayed presentation. Disclosure: Dr. Leung has nothing to disclose. Dr. Louis R. Caplan has received personal compensation in an editorial capacity for JAMA Neurology.

Soluble Urokinase Plasminogen Activator Receptor: A Risk Factor for Carotid Plaque, Stroke, and Coronary Artery Disease Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— suPAR is associated with increased occurrence of carotid plaque and increased incidence of ischemic stroke and CAD. Presence of both elevated levels of suPAR and carotid plaque increases the risk of ischemic stroke in an additive way.

Predictive Value of Plasma d-Dimer Levels for Cancer-related Stroke: A 3-Year Retrospective Study
Background: Cerebrovascular disease is the second leading cause of central nervous system pathology in cancer patients. Cancer-associated hypercoagulation plays an important role in cancer-related stroke. The present study aims to test whether plasma d-dimer levels could predict comorbid malignancy in patients with ischemic stroke.Methods: Five hundred sixteen stroke patients with measured d-dimer levels and who were consecutively admitted to our stroke center from 2009 to 2012 were included. Cancer status was determined by medical chart, and 59 patients were identified to have active cancer. An additional 48 cancer patien...

Hyponatremia in the Prognosis of Acute Ischemic Stroke
Background: Hyponatremia is a risk factor for stroke and cardiovascular disease. Even mild hyponatremia is associated with increased 30-day mortality after myocardial infarction, and it has recently shown to increase the 3-year mortality after a stroke. In this work, we investigated both acute and chronic clinical outcomes after a stroke in hyponatremic patients.Methods: We reviewed all patients admitted between 2004 and 2011 with the diagnosis of acute ischemic stroke. Hyponatremia was defined as serum sodium level less than 135 mmol/L and recorded on admission. All hemorrhagic strokes were excluded. Data were analyzed us...

Smoking and Mortality in Stroke Survivors: Can We Eliminate the Paradox?
Conclusions: Stroke survivors who smoke have an increased risk of all-cause mortality, which is largely because of cancer mortality. Socioeconomic and clinical factors explain stroke survivors' higher risk of CVD mortality associated with smoking.

Sleep duration and risk of fatal and nonfatal stroke: A prospective study and meta-analysis
Conclusions: This prospective study and meta-analysis identified prolonged sleep as a potentially useful marker of increased future stroke risk in an apparently healthy aging population.

Associations Between Adherence to Evidence-Based, Stroke Quality Indicators and Outcomes of Acute Reperfusion Therapy
CONCLUSIONS: We demonstrated national marked and sustainable improvement in adherence to door-to-needle time, door-to-puncture time, and successful reperfusion from 2013 to 2017 in Japan in patients with acute ischemic stroke. Adhering to the key QIs substantially affected in-hospital outcomes, underlining the importance of monitoring the quality of care using evidence-based QIs and the nationwide Close The Gap-Stroke program.PMID:35971841 | DOI:10.1161/STROKEAHA.121.038483
