Subjective Memory Complaints and the Risk of Stroke Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— Subjective memory complaints might be an early indicator of stroke risk, especially in highly educated individuals.

Ideal Cardiovascular Health Metrics and the Risks of Ischemic and Intracerebral Hemorrhagic Stroke Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— We observed a clear inverse gradient relationship between the number of ideal CVH metrics and the risk of stroke in a Chinese population, supporting the importance of ideal health behaviors and factors in stroke prevention.

Combined Effects of Socioeconomic Position, Smoking, and Hypertension on Risk of Ischemic and Hemorrhagic Stroke Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— Reducing smoking in those with low socioeconomic position and in those with hypertension could potentially reduce social inequality stroke incidence.

Implementation of a Structured Guideline-Based Program for the Secondary Prevention of Ischemic Stroke in China Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— The implementation of a program to improve adherence to secondary ischemic stroke prevention efforts in China is feasible, but these programs had only a limited impact on adherence and no impact on 1-year outcomes. Further development of a structured program to reduce vascular events after stroke is needed. Clinical Trial Registration—URL: http://www.clinicaltrials.gov. Unique identifier: NCT00664846.

Racial/Ethnic Differences in Process of Care and Outcomes Among Patients Hospitalized With Intracerebral Hemorrhage Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— Although individual quality indicators in ICH varied by race/ethnicity, black, Hispanic, and Asian patients with ICH had lower risk-adjusted in-hospital mortality than white patients with ICH.

Early Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Cognitive Markers of Hereditary Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy Brief Report
Background and Purpose—Early markers for cerebral amyloid angiopathy are largely unknown. We aimed to identify which magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) (performed at 7 and 3T) and cognitive markers are an early sign in (pre) symptomatic subjects with hereditary cerebral hemorrhage with amyloidosis-Dutch type.Methods—Twenty-seven DNA-proven Dutch-type mutation carriers (15 symptomatic and 12 presymptomatic) (mean age of 45.9 years) and 33 controls (mean age of 45.6 years) were included. 7T and 3T MRI was performed, cerebral amyloid angiopathy and small-vessel disease type MRI markers were estimated, and cognitive performa...
