Delayed-onset dementia after stroke or transient ischemic attack.
DISCUSSION: Severe SVD contributes importantly to delayed-onset dementia after stroke and/or TIA. Future clinical trials aiming to prevent delayed-onset dementia after stroke and/or TIA should target this high-risk group. PMID: 27327542 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

The Effect of an Educational Pamphlet on Patient Knowledge of and Intention to Discuss Screening for Obstructive Sleep Apnea in the Acute Ischemic Stroke Population
Conclusions: A brief educational pamphlet written using health literacy concepts was considered valuable and improved patient knowledge and intention to discuss OSA screening with a physician. Further work is needed to determine whether the pamphlet can promote a discussion and referral for OSA screening at the primary care level.

Clinical characteristics and treatment outcomes among stroke patients hospitalized to Nekemte referral hospital, western Ethiopia
ConclusionAbout two third of the patients had poor treatment outcome. Educational status and mean length of hospital stays were independent predictors of poor treatment out-comes. An emergency care setup capable of early patient evaluation, identification and management of stroke complications is crucial to overcome early stroke related mortality.

Cognitive Reserve Attenuates 6-Year Decline in Executive Functioning after Stroke.
CONCLUSION: The detrimental aftereffects of stroke on subsequent decline in executive functioning may be attenuated in individuals who have accumulated greater cognitive reserve through leisure activity engagement across their life. PMID: 32209793 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

IJERPH, Vol. 18, Pages 8962: Current Update on the Clinical Utility of MMSE and MoCA for Stroke Patients in Asia: A Systematic Review
Conclusion: Clinicians in Asia are strongly recommended to consider the education level of stroke patients when interpreting the results of the MMSE and MoCA. Further studies in other Asian countries are needed to understand their clinical value in stroke settings.

Tooth Loss May Predict Poor Cognitive Function in Community-Dwelling Adults without Dementia or Stroke: The PRESENT Project.
Abstract Periodontal disease is a potential predictor of stroke and cognitive impairment. However, this association is unclear in adults aged 50 yr and above without a history of stroke or dementia. We evaluated the association between the number of teeth lost, indicating periodontal disease, and cognitive impairment in community-dwelling adults without any history of dementia or stroke. Dental examinations were performed on 438 adults older than 50 yr (315 females, mean age 63±7.8 yr; 123 males, mean age 61.5±8.5 yr) between January 2009 and December 2010. In the unadjusted analysis, odds ratios (OR) of cogniti...

Remote thalamic microstructural abnormalities related to cognitive function in ischemic stroke patients.
Conclusion: Our findings support the hypothesis that ischemic stroke lesions are associated with remote thalamic diffusion abnormalities, and that these abnormalities can contribute to cognitive dysfunction 3 months after a cerebrovascular event.

IJERPH, Vol. 18, Pages 5122: Neighborhood Socioeconomic Resources and Crime-Related Psychosocial Hazards, Stroke Risk, and Cognition in Older Adults
e Melissa Lamar Living in neighborhoods with lower incomes, lower education/occupational levels, and/or higher crime increases one’s risk of developing chronic health problems including cardiovascular disease risk factors and stroke. These cardiovascular health problems are known to contribute to cognitive decline and dementia. The purpose of this study was to determine the association of neighborhood socioeconomic resources and crime-related psychosocial hazards on stroke risk and cognition, hypothesizing that cardiovascular health would mediate any relationship between the neighborhood-level environment and cogni...

The current situation on vascular cognitive impairment after ischemic stroke in Changsha
In this study, we determined that the prevalence of VCI was 41.8%. Aging, paraventricular white matter lesion (WML), macroangiopathy, high levels of alcohol, a lack of hobbies, and excessive sleep were risk factors for vascular cognitive impairment no dementia (VCIND). A high level of education, manual-work, low level of alcohol use, regular health checks, a vegetable-based diet, and more fruit and milk were protective factors for VCIND. Living alone, hyperlipidemia, transient ischemic attack, a family history of stroke, and brain atrophy were risk factors of vascular dementia (VD). A high educational level, a vegetable-ba...

Montreal Cognitive Assessment: One Cutoff Never Fits All Brief Reports
Conclusions— Conventional single cutoff scores are associated with substantially high rates of misclassification especially in older and less-educated patients with stroke. These results caution against the use of one-size-fits-all cutoffs on the MoCA.

Intracranial and Extracranial Stenosis interact with White Matter Disease in the Pathogenesis of Post Stroke Dementia (P5.210)

Randomized Evaluation of Carotid Occlusion and Neurocognition (RECON) trial: Main results
Conclusion: 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. Classification of evidence: This study provides Class II evidence that for patients with symptomatic ICA occlusion and increased OEF on PET, EC-IC bypass compared to no bypass does not improve cognitive function after 2 years.

Impaired Processing of Positive and Negative Facial Expressions in Right Hemisphere Stroke (P2.159)
CONCLUSIONS: Patients with RH stroke had impaired ability to process facial expressions relative to controls.Patients with lesions in the right amygdala and right anterior insula demonstrated particular difficulty processing specific facial expressions. Results suggest that these patients have difficulty recognizing the emotions of others which can impair social interactions, indicating a target for novel interventions.Study supported by: NINDS, R01NS047691.Disclosure: Dr. Tippett has nothing to disclose.
