Age-specific association between blood pressure and vascular and non-vascular chronic diseases in 0 ·5 million adults in China: a prospective cohort study
Publication date: June 2018 Source:The Lancet Global Health, Volume 6, Issue 6 Author(s): Ben Lacey, Sarah Lewington, Robert Clarke, Xiang Ling Kong, Yiping Chen, Yu Guo, Ling Yang, Derrick Bennett, Fiona Bragg, Zheng Bian, Shaojie Wang, Hua Zhang, Junshi Chen, Robin G Walters, Rory Collins, Richard Peto, Liming Li, Zhengming Chen Background The age-specific association between blood pressure and vascular disease has been studied mostly in high-income countries, and before the widespread use of brain imaging for diagnosis of the main stroke types (ischaemic stroke and intracerebral haemorrhage). We aimed to investigate th...

Antiplatelet therapy with aspirin, clopidogrel, and dipyridamole versus clopidogrel alone or aspirin and dipyridamole in patients with acute cerebral ischaemia (TARDIS): a randomised, open-label, phase 3 superiority trial

Low-dose aspirin and risk of intracranial bleeds: An observational study in UK general practice
Conclusion: Low-dose aspirin is not associated with an increased risk of any type of ICB and is associated with a significantly decreased risk of SAH when used for ≥1 year.

Imaging assessment of acute ischaemic stroke - a review of radiological methods.
Abstract Acute ischaemic stroke is the second largest cause of death worldwide and a cause of major physical and psychological morbidity. Current evidence based treatment includes intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) and mechanical thrombectomy (MT), both requiring careful patient selection and to be administered as quickly as possible within a limited time window from symptom onset. Imaging plays a crucial role identifying patients who may benefit from MT or IVT whilst excluding those that maybe harmed. For IVT, imaging must as a minimum exclude haemorrhage, stroke mimics and provide an estimate of non-viable brain. Fo...

Predictors of Outcome in Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage Patients Clinical Sciences
Background and Purpose—The mortality and morbidity after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage has improved because of better diagnosis, early treatment to secure the aneurysm, and better management of disease-specific complications. With these improvements in care, it is not clear if the previously identified independent predictors of a negative outcome have changed. The aim of this study was to identify the independent predictors of an unfavorable outcome (Glasgow Outcome Score 1, 2, and 3) in aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage patients.Methods—Univariate and multivariate analysis of prospectively collected data on pati...

Embolization for the treatment of intractable epistaxis: 12 month outcomes in a two centre case series.
CONCLUSION: Embolization for epistaxis is safe and effective. Of those who had recurrent epistaxis post embolization, most were taking P2Y12 inhibition and/or anticoagulation. We prefer bilateral distal internal maxillary artery and unilateral facial artery embolization under general anesthesia for optimal safety and efficacy. Advances in knowledge: Embolization with this technique seems to facilitate superior outcomes without complications despite the large proportion of patients taking anticoagulating or P2Y12 inhibiting agents.

Secondary prevention treatment after acute stroke in older South Asian, Chinese and other Canadians: a retrospective data analysis.
Abstract BACKGROUND: Little is known about whether there are differences in medication use between older patients of Chinese descent, those of South Asian descent and other Canadian patients after acute ischemic or primary intracerebral hemorrhagic stroke. The aim of this population-based study was to evaluate potential ethnic differences in secondary prevention pharmacotherapy after acute stroke. METHODS: Using health administrative data, we conducted a retrospective analysis of all patients aged 66 years or more admitted to hospital with acute stroke in Ontario (1997-2011) and British Columbia (1997-2009). ...

Transcranial Doppler Screening in a Regional Care Network for Sickle Cell Disease in the United Kingdom
The risk of stroke in children screened with transcranial Doppler ultrasound in the United Kingdom is not known. We evaluated a clinician-led program using a risk assessment modified from the STOP protocol. High-risk classification included abnormal velocities in the anterior cerebral artery, and single abnormal scan if initial velocity>220 cm/s (high abnormal) or if preceded by at least 2 conditional scans. In total, 1653 scans were performed in 542 children, followed for 2235 patient-years. Fifty-eight (10.7%) high-risk subjects were identified, including 18 (31%) with high abnormal, and 15 (26%) with previous conditiona...
