Risk of stroke following antivenom use after venomous snakebite: correspondence
We read with great interest the epidemiological study by Hunget al.1 on the risk of stroke with antivenom use after venomous snakebite in Taiwan. According to the national medical claims data, the authors provide us with useful information and disclose that venomous snakebite is associated with an increased risk of hemorrhagic stroke after the use of antivenom after using the matching propensity score in relevant measurable covariates. We strongly agree with the comments by Yehet al.2 on the unmeasured confounders associated with stroke in the present study. Furthermore, we are concerned that other residual confounders rel...

Menopausal hormone therapy with conjugated equine estrogen is associated with a higher risk of hemorrhagic stroke than therapy with estradiol: a retrospective population-based cohort study
Estrogen therapy is prescribed for women without a uterus. For women with intact uteri, progestogens should be added to protect against endometrial hyperplasia. Different estrogen profiles may cause different side effects and beneficial clinical outcomes [1]. Different forms of estrogen also have different serum E2 concentrations; a previous study demonstrated that 1  mg E2 was equivalent to 0.4 mg CEE [1]. Progestin includes medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) and norethindrone acetate (NE). In Taiwan, the most common MHT for patients with an intact uterus are CEE (0.625 mg) or E2 (2 mg) combined with 5 mg MPA or 1 mg NE [2,3].

Decreased Risk of Stroke in People Using Red Yeast Rice Prescriptions (LipoCol Forte ®): a Total Population-Based Retrospective Cohort Study
This study showed a potentially positive effect of RYR on the risk of stroke. However, compliance with medication use should be cautioned. The findings of this study require future studies to validate the beneficial effects of RYR prescription on stroke risk.PMID:35502179 | PMC:PMC9056220 | DOI:10.1155/2022/8160425

Detailed risks and characteristics of postepilepsy stroke in non-traumatic adult-onset epilepsy
CONCLUSION: Since the increased risk of stroke in epilepsy cohort peaked immediately after epilepsy diagnosis, early implementation of prevention strategies is considered.PMID:35484004 | DOI:10.1016/j.jfma.2022.04.003

Effectiveness of Standard-Dose vs. Low-Dose Alteplase for Acute Ischemic Stroke Within 3 –4.5 h
ConclusionIn the 34.5-h time window, the effectiveness and safety of standard-dose and low-dose alteplase may be comparable. A standard dose may be selected for patients with cardioembolism, atrial fibrillation, or hypercholesterolemia.

Major acute cardiovascular events after dengue infection –A population-based observational study
ConclusionsThe risks for MACEs are significantly higher in the immediate time period after dengue infection. Since dengue infection is potentially preventable by early recognition and vaccination, the dengue-associated MACE should be taken into consideration when making public health management policies.

Prognostic indicators for the onset of ischaemic versus haemorrhagic stroke in stable coronary artery disease
Medicine (Baltimore). 2021 Dec 3;100(48):e27973. doi: 10.1097/MD.0000000000027973.ABSTRACTThe incidence of stroke may be increased in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). We aimed to investigate the specific risk factors for the development of ischaemic and haemorrhagic stroke in stable CAD patients.Patients with stable CAD were prospectively enrolled for future cardiovascular events in Taiwan. All the patients had received coronary interventions and were stable for least 1 month before enrolment. The incidence of ischaemic stroke was identified and confirmed by telephone and hospital records. Baseline characterist...

Continuation or discontinuation of oral anticoagulants after HAS-BLED scores increase in patients with atrial fibrillation
ConclusionsFor patients whose HAS-BLED scores increased to  ≥ 3, the continuation of OACs was associated with better clinical outcomes. An increased HAS-BLED score in anticoagulated AF patients may not be the only reason to withhold OACs, but reminds physicians to correct modifiable bleeding risk factors and follow up patients more closely.Graphical abstractAssociations between Continuation or Discontinuation of Oral Anticoagulants and Risks of Clinical Outcomes after HAS-BLED Scores IncreasedAF atrial fibrillation;aHR adjusted hazard ratio;ICH intra-cranial hemorrhage;OACs oral anticoagulants

We aimed to investigate the specific risk factors for the development of ischaemic and haemorrhagic stroke in stable CAD patients. Patients with stable CAD were prospectively enrolled for future cardiovascular events in Taiwan. All the patients had received coronary interventions and were stable for least 1 month before enrolment. The incidence of ischaemic stroke was identified and confirmed by telephone and hospital records. Baseline characteristics, including demographic data, lipid profiles, medications, and biomarkers for pot...
