Association of education and feedback on hypertension management with risk for stroke and cardiovascular disease
CONCLUSIONS: This study does not support an association between education and feedback on hypertension management to primary care physicians and the risk for stroke or cardiovascular outcomes. The observed differences for mortality outcomes should be interpreted with caution.PMID:35179089 | DOI:10.1080/08037051.2022.2041393

Association between Carotid Artery Stenosis and Cognitive Impairment in Stroke Patients: A Cross-Sectional Study
by Wei Yue, Anxin Wang, Runxiu Zhu, Zhongrui Yan, Shouhuan Zheng, Jingwei Wang, Jia Huo, Yunlin Liu, Xin Li, Yong Ji To investigate potential associations between carotid artery stenosis and cognitive impairment among patients with acute ischemic stroke and to provide important clinical implications. We measured the degree of carotid artery stenosis and recorded the Mini-Mental State Examination score (MMSE) at admission in 3116 acute ischemic stroke patients. The association between carotid stenosis and cognitive impairment assessed by MMSE was tested using multivariate regression analysis. Other clinical variables of in...

The prevalence of stroke according to indoor radon concentration in South Koreans: Nationwide cross section study
This study combines 2 nationwide studies. Demographic characteristics and medical history of participants were obtained from Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES) from 2007 to 2012. Participants over 40 years old and who completed the questionnaire were included in the study. Indoor radon concentration was analyzed using the mean value of winter housing radon concentration from 2012 to 2016 published by the National Institute of Environmental Research. The average values of each metropolitan city and province were assigned to the residence of the participant. To eliminate the potential confoundi...

Taking A Hot Bath Linked To Lower Risk Of Heart Disease And Stroke, Study Finds
(CNN) — Ending your day with a hot bath might have more benefits than just relaxation. It could also lower your risk of heart disease and stroke, a new study finds. Previous research on bathing has already shown that it’s beneficial for sleep quality and how healthy a person thinks they are. A new study, published Tuesday in the journal Heart, found that a daily hot bath is also associated with a 28% lower risk of heart disease, and a 26% lower risk of stroke — likely because taking a bath is also associated with lowering your blood pressure, the researchers said. They discovered this after tracking the b...

Community-based culturally tailored education programmes for black adults with cardiovascular disease, diabetes, hypertension and stroke: a systematic review protocol of primary empirical studies
The objectives of this review are to: (1) synthesise key programme characteristics and outcomes of culturally tailored community-based (CBCT) programmes that are designed to improve health outcomes in black adults with cardiovascular disease, hypertension, diabetes, or stroke and (2) identify which of the five categories of culturally appropriate programmes from Kreuter and colleagues have been used to implement CBCT programmes. Methods and analysis This is a protocol for a systematic review that will search Medline, Embase and Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature databases to identify studies of CBCT ...

Pre-Existing Dementia in Octagenerians with Acute Ischemic Stroke
To investigate the prevalance of pre-existing dementia and vascular risk factors in hospitalized octaganerians with acute ischemic stroke. Study subjects were selected from neurology inpatient records of Haseki Research and Education Hospital and included inpatients over 80 years old with acute ischemic stroke between January 2010 and July 2013. Their medical records were reviewed, and the rates of hypertension, diabetes mellitus, atrial fibrillation and dementia were calculated.

Early Life Risk Factors for Stroke and Cognitive Impairment
Abstract Cerebrovascular disease may present in later life with stroke or cognitive impairment and dementia, or may be silent, with changes seen incidentally on imaging or pathology. Midlife vascular risk factors such as hypertension, smoking and diabetes are well recognised. However, factors from much earlier in life may contribute to later vascular risk. In this commentary, we outline the importance of considering the whole life course in the development of cerebrovascular disease. We consider mainly factors from childhood, childhood intelligence test scores, education and socioeconomic status, which have been s...
