Adiponectin and Risk of Stroke: Prospective Study and Meta-analysis Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— Adiponectin is not associated with risk of stroke. If anything, adiponectin relates directly to stroke risk after controlling for risk factors that favorably correlate with adiponectin.

Recurrent thromboembolic events after ischemic stroke in patients with cancer
Conclusions: Patients with acute ischemic stroke in the setting of active cancer (especially adenocarcinoma) face a substantial short-term risk of recurrent ischemic stroke and other types of thromboembolism.

Physical Activity and Risk of Cerebrovascular Disease in the European Prospective Investigation Into Cancer and Nutrition-Spain Study Original Contributions
Conclusions— Recreational PA of moderate intensity was inversely associated with stroke incidence in women, whereas PA showed no effect on CVD risk in men. Increasing time dedicated to activities such as walking would be expected to help to reduce the stroke burden in women.

Ischemic stroke in patients with cancer: Is it different from usual strokes?
ConclusionsISC‐active, but not ISC‐inactive, is distinct in terms of risk factors, stroke mechanisms, and lesion patterns. Chronic inflammation and an activated coagulation system may contribute to the pathogenic mechanism of strokes, the extent of each depending on the activity and severity of cancer.

C-reactive Protein and Homocysteine Predict Long-term Mortality in Young Ischemic Stroke Patients
Conclusions: There is an independent association between CRP and homocysteine levels obtained several years after ischemic stroke in young adults and subsequent mortality, even when adjusting for traditional risk factors. This association seems to continue for at least 12 years after the measurements.

Healthy diet and lifestyle and risk of stroke in a prospective cohort of women
Conclusions: These findings indicate that a low-risk lifestyle can substantially reduce the risk of stroke, especially cerebral infarction.

Association of Breakfast Intake With Incident Stroke and Coronary Heart Disease: The Japan Public Health Center-Based Study Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— The frequency of breakfast intake was inversely associated with the risk of stroke, especially cerebral hemorrhage in Japanese, suggesting that eating breakfast everyday may be beneficial for the prevention of stroke.

Biomarkers and Mortality After Transient Ischemic Attack and Minor Ischemic Stroke: Population-Based Study Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— Several biomarkers predicted death of any cause after transient ischemic attack and minor stroke. N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide and heart-type fatty-acid-binding protein might improve patient selection for additional screening for occult cardiac disease or cancer, respectively. However, our results require validation in future studies.

Circulating Tissue Factor Levels and Risk of Stroke: Findings From the EPICOR Study Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— Our data provide evidence that elevated levels of circulating TF are potential risk factors for ischemic strokes.

Risk of Ischemic Stroke and Major Bleeding in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation and Cancer
Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is an important risk factor for ischemic stroke. Cancer may increase the risk both of ischemic stroke and of bleeding. Less is known about risk of ischemic stroke and bleeding among cancer patients with AF, complicating the prevention of ischemic stroke in these patients. Methods: Register based cohort study comprising all Swedish patients hospitalized with a primary diagnosis of AF from July 1, 2005 until December 31, 2014. Patients with cancer diagnosis were compared to the rest of the cohort.

Understanding Coordinator Roles in Acute Stroke Care: A National Survey
Globally, stroke is a major contributor to death and disability.1 Evidence-based care in hospital after an acute stroke ensures improved survival and reduced disability, but care quality can vary.2,3 Clinical coordinators have an essential role in improving best-practice in trauma, cancer, diabetes, and heart failure conditions.4-7 Within stroke, coordinator roles are not new; in 1970, a study outlining the ‘Stroke Team’ model was published, which included a physician, nurse-coordinator and physical therapist.

Determination of Clinical Cut-Off Values for Serum Cystatin C Levels to Predict Ischemic Stroke Risk
Background: The association between cystatin C and risk of ischemic stroke is inconsistent and the cut-off values of cystatin C are diverse in different articles. We aimed to investigate the association between cystatin C levels and the development of ischemic stroke and to explore the clinical cut-off values of serum cystatin C levels for ischemic stroke. Methods: This prospective cohort study included 7658 participants from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study who were free of cardiovascular diseases and cancer at baseline.

Ability of the number of territories involved on dwi-mri to predict occult systemic malignancy in cryptogenic stroke patients
Lesions in multiple arterial territories is one of the typical features of malignancy patients with cryptogenic stroke. Hence, if patients with cryptogenic stroke display such feature, occult cancer could be predicted. The study aimed to analyze the predictive ability of the number of territories involved on DWI-MRI for occult systemic malignancy (OSM) in patients with cryptogenic stroke.

Clinical Characteristics and Analysis of Lung Cancer- Associated Acute Ischemic Stroke
The incidence of lung cancer and acute ischemic stroke remains high in recent years, both of which occur mostly in people over 60 years old. In the present study, we aimed to further clarify the pathogenesis of lung cancer-associated acute ischemic stroke (LCA-AIS) by comparing and analyzing clinical characteristics of stroke patients with or without lung cancer.
