Role of the Gut Microbiota in Stroke Pathogenesis and Potential Therapeutic Implications
Background: Major advances have been made in stroke treatment and prevention in the past decades. However, the burden of stroke remains high. Identification of novel targets and establishment of effective interventions to improve stroke outcomes are, therefore, needed. Recent research highlights the contribution of the gut microbiota to stroke pathogenesis.Summary: Compositional and functional alterations of the gut microbiota, termed dysbiosis, are linked to stroke risk factors, such as obesity, metabolic diseases, and atherosclerosis. In acute cerebral ischemia, the gut microbiota plays a key role in bidirectional intera...

Association between different obesity measures and the risk of stroke in the EPIC Spanish cohort
Conclusions Data from the Spanish EPIC cohort study show a strong association of WC and WHR with the relative risk of suffering a stroke only in men, while no associations were found for BMI. It supports the suggestion of other authors of using more than one obesity index in the study of stroke risk prediction.

A J-shaped relation of BMI and stroke: systematic review and dose–response meta-analysis of 4.43 million participants
ConclusionBoth overweight and obesity increase the risk of stroke with a J-shaped dose–response relation, and the nadir of the curve was observed at BMI 23-24 kg/m2.

Dietary Antioxidant Capacity and Risk of Stroke in a prospective cohort study of Swedish Men and Women
Both observational studies and randomized trials have shown that a diet rich in antioxidants can reduce systemic inflammation and oxidative stress, two conditions that, together with obesity and smoking, are established risk factors for stroke. However, the association between antioxidant intake and risk of stroke is poorly understood, particularly when studying possible interaction with gender. We investigated the relationship of Non Enzymatic Antioxidant Capacity (NEAC) on risk of stroke in a large Swedish prospective cohort.

Prevalence And Association With Outcomes Of The Espen And Easo-Defined Diagnostic Criteria For Sarcopenic Obesity In Patients Undergoing Rehabilitation After Stroke
Rationale: Sarcopenic obesity, characterized by the coexistence of sarcopenia and obesity, is of growing research and clinical interest; however, validated diagnostic criteria are lacking. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to examine the prevalence of sarcopenic obesity, as diagnosed by the criteria recently proposed by the European Society for Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism (ESPEN) and the European Association for the Study of Obesity (EASO), and its association with outcomes among patients undergoing rehabilitation after stroke.

Dairy consumption and mortality after myocardial infarction: a prospective analysis in the Alpha Omega Cohort
CONCLUSIONS: In Dutch post-MI patients, yogurt consumption was inversely associated with CVD mortality and all-cause mortality. Associations for milk and other dairy products were neutral or inconsistent.This trial was registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT03192410.PMID:33826695 | DOI:10.1093/ajcn/nqab026

Energy and protein restriction should be avoided in most overweight older patients
In their recent original article, “Muscle Assessment in Stroke Study (MASS)”, Gungor et al. aimed to evaluate the degree of muscle loss during acute stroke and determine factors contributing to this loss [1]. They included 107 acute dysphagic ischemic stroke patients (median age:74) admitted to neuro-intensive care units and ev aluated muscle cross sectional area (CSMA) on days 1 and 14 of admission via computed tomography at mid-humerus, mid-thigh, and third lumbar vertebra levels. They calculated the change in CSMA and variables associated with this change.

Hemodynamic Overload and Intra-abdominal Adiposity in Obese Children: Relationships with Cardiovascular Structure and Function
Conclusions Obese youths present signs of impaired lipid and glucose metabolism, hyperdynamic circulation and cardiovascular changes. Increase in LV dimensions and mass and in carotid diameter and distension seems to reflect adaptation to body-size induced increase in hemodynamic load, changes in LV diastolic performance a negative impact of intra-abdominal adiposity and associated metabolic risk, and increase in IMT both adaptive remodeling and metabolic risk.
