Role of atherosclerosis, clot extent, and penumbra volume in headache during ischemic stroke
Conclusions: Headache in the early phase of ischemic stroke tends to occur less often in patients with atherosclerosis than in patients without atherosclerosis in the large cerebral arteries. This finding lends support to the hypothesis that vessel wall elasticity is a necessary contributing factor in the occurrence of headache during acute ischemic stroke.

Synthetic Cannabis and Acute Ischemic Stroke
We describe 2 cases that introduce a previously unreported association between synthetic cannabis use and ischemic stroke in young adults. A 22-year-old woman presented with dysarthria, left hemiplegia, and left hemianesthesia within hours of first use of synthetic cannabis. She was healthy and without identified stroke risk factors other than oral contraceptive use and a patent foramen ovale without venous thromboses. A 26-year-old woman presented with nonfluent aphasia, left facial droop, and left hemianesthesia approximately 12 hours after first use of synthetic cannabis. Her other stroke risk factors included migraine ...

Age-specific association of migraine with cryptogenic TIA and stroke: Population-based study
Conclusions: In this population-based study of stroke etiology stratified by age, migraine was most strongly associated with cryptogenic TIA and ischemic stroke, particularly at older ages, suggesting a causal role or a shared etiology.

A rare cause of stroke in young: PHACE syndrome (P1.253)
Conclusions:Neurocutaneous syndromes are typically diagnosed in childhood and can be a rare cause of stroke in young. Our patient suffered an ischemic stroke secondary to sequelae of undiagnosed PHACE syndrome. Early identification of neurocutaneous syndromes allows for proper surveillance, evaluation, and preventative education for development of complications.Disclosure: Dr. Fitzgerald has nothing to disclose.

Worsening Severity of Migraines in Current Users of Hormone Replacement Therapy Correlates to Increased Risk of Ischemic Stroke (I2.011)
Conclusions: Current HRT users that have an increase in severity of one grade or more of migraines are shown to have an increased risk of ischemic strokes.Disclosure: Dr. Rahman has nothing to disclose.

Cardioembolism as the unsuspected missing link between migraine and ischemic stroke
First identified in 1975, the relationship between migraine and stroke has received considerable attention.1 Forty years later, solid evidence indicates that those with migraine have a 1.5-fold to 2.5-fold increased risk of stroke.2–4 However, the strength of this relationship varies based on the subtypes of migraine (with vs without aura) and stroke (hemorrhagic vs ischemic). While the majority of data support an increased risk of ischemic stroke in those with migraine, the association between migraine without aura and ischemic stroke seems weaker and more controversial, possibly due to methodologic heterogeneity across studies.2,3

Prevalence of white matter lesions and stroke in children with migraine
Conclusion: WMLs in pediatric patients with migraine and aura are no more prevalent than in controls. They appear to be benign and are not associated with stroke.

Patent Foramen Ovale and Infarct Volume in Cryptogenic Stroke
Background: The causal relationship between patent foramen ovale (PFO) and stroke is controversial. We hypothesized that if PFO is a pathway of embolic source, there might be a correlation between PFO characteristics (ie, size or extent of shunt) and ischemic lesion burden (ie, infarct volume and number).Methods: From ischemic stroke patients admitted to Asan Medical Center between January 2000 and October 2007, we identified those who had (1) acute ischemic lesion on diffusion-weighted imaging within 5 days of symptom onset and (2) cryptogenic stroke and only PFO detected by transesophageal echocardiography. PFO characte...

Thrombolytic Treatment for Acute Ischemic Stroke Patients with History of Migraine Headaches (P4.223)
Conclusion: Patients with migraine headaches receiving IV rt-PA treatment for acute ischemic stroke appear to have a lower rates of death and disability most likely related to their decreased rates of intracerebral hemorrhage.Disclosure: Dr. Malik has nothing to disclose.

Stroke and nonstroke brain attacks in children
Conclusions: Brain attack etiologies differ from adults, with stroke being the fourth most common diagnosis. These findings will inform development of ED clinical pathways for pediatric brain attacks.

Stroke Mimics under the Drip-and-Ship Paradigm
Conclusion: The drip-and-ship paradigm and any psychiatric history predict the diagnosis of SM. None of the SM had thrombolysis-related complications, and all were discharged to home. These findings may explain the superior outcomes associated with the drip-and-ship paradigm in the treatment for AIS.

Cervical Arterial Dissections and Association With Cervical Manipulative Therapy: A Statement for Healthcare Professionals From the American Heart Association/American Stroke Association AHA/ASA Scientific Statement
Conclusions— CD is an important cause of ischemic stroke in young and middle-aged patients. CD is most prevalent in the upper cervical spine and can involve the internal carotid artery or vertebral artery. Although current biomechanical evidence is insufficient to establish the claim that CMT causes CD, clinical reports suggest that mechanical forces play a role in a considerable number of CDs and most population controlled studies have found an association between CMT and VAD stroke in young patients. Although the incidence of CMT-associated CD in patients who have previously received CMT is not well established, an...
