High-Sensitivity C-reactive Protein and Intracranial Arterial Stenosis Predicted Recurrent Stroke and Dependence or Death in Minor Stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack
CONCLUSION: Concomitant presence of increased hsCRP levels and ICAS was associated with increased risk of stroke recurrence and dependence or death in patients with minor ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack.PMID:37704441 | DOI:10.5551/jat.64229

Preferred monotherapy after short-term dual antiplatelet therapy: Systematic review and network meta-analysis of randomized trials
CONCLUSIONS: Compared with aspirin monotherapy following short-term DAPT, ticagrelor following 3-month DAPT was associated with a reduced risk of primary bleeding outcomes without increasing any ischemic outcomes.PMID:37562542 | DOI:10.1016/j.jjcc.2023.08.001

Dual Antiplatelet Therapies and Causes in Minor Stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack: A Prespecified Analysis in the CHANCE-2 Trial
CONCLUSIONS: In this prespecified analysis of the CHANCE-2 trial, the efficacy and safety of ticagrelor-aspirin versus clopidogrel-aspirin in preventing new stroke were consistent in patients with different causes. The influence of stroke cause on benefit of gene-guided antiplatelet therapy should be explored by further trials.REGISTRATION: URL: https://www.CLINICALTRIALS: gov; Unique identifier: NCT04078737.PMID:37548009 | DOI:10.1161/STROKEAHA.122.042233

Ticagrelor or Clopidogrel as Antiplatelet Agents in Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease and Cardiovascular Disease: A Meta-analysis
ConclusionsWhen compared with clopidogrel, even though ticagrelor was not associated with higher risk of adverse cardiovascular outcomes in these patients with CKD, it was associated with significantly higher BARC bleeding. Therefore, the safety outcomes of ticagrelor still require further evaluation in patients with CKD. Nevertheless, this hypothesis should only be confirmed with more powerful results that could usually only be achieved using large-scale randomized trials.

Acute coronary syndrome in very elderly patients —a real-world experience
AbstractVery elderly population constitutes an increasingly larger proportion of patients admitted for acute coronary syndromes (ACS). Notably, age represents both a proxy of frailty and an exclusion criterion in clinical randomized trials, which probably contributes to lack of data and undertreatment of real-world elderly patients. The aim of the study is to describe patterns of treatment and outcome of very elderly patients with ACS. All consecutive patients aged  ≥ 80 years old (yo) admitted between January 2017 and December 2019 with ACS were included. The primary endpoint was in-hospital occurrence of major adv...

Middle Cerebral Artery Dissection: A Report of Two Cases With Treatments and Outcomes
Cureus. 2023 May 29;15(5):e39632. doi: 10.7759/cureus.39632. eCollection 2023 May.ABSTRACTIn the present report, we describe two cases of right-sided M1 segment middle cerebral artery dissection in a 51-year-old Asian female and in a 28-year-old Caucasian male patient with no previous history of ischemic stroke or known intracranial atherosclerosis presenting with acute unilateral headache progressing to severe multifocal hemispheric infarction with nearly complete one-sided motor paralysis. In both patients, a middle cerebral artery dissection was detected on angiography; they were given exclusively medical therapy: patie...

Optimization of secondary prevention in patients with high-risk atherothrombotic ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attacks
Zh Nevrol Psikhiatr Im S S Korsakova. 2023;123(6):36-43. doi: 10.17116/jnevro202312306136.ABSTRACTHigh and very high risk atherothrombotic ischemic stroke (ATIS) includes patients with severe extracranial atherosclerosis, any intracranial atherosclerosis, and aortic arch atheromatosis. The article discusses the most effective approaches to medical short- and long-term secondary prevention of ATIS, major vascular events and death, based on the results of modern research and current clinical guidelines. Clinical studies of recent years have proven the possibility of individualization and intensification of secondary preventi...
