Does Weekends Effect Exist in Asia? Analysis of Endovascular Thrombectomy for Acute Ischemic Stroke in A Medical Center
Conclusions This study revealed nonworking-hour effects truly exist in patients who received EST. Although delays in door-to-groin puncture times were noticed during nonworking hours, significant differences in neurological functions and mortality were not observed between working and nonworking hours. Nevertheless, methods to improve the process during nonworking hours should be explored in the future.PMID:35894472 | DOI:10.2174/1567202619666220727094020

RAcial Disparities in Ich after IV-tPA and Neurointerventional Treatment (RADIANT)
Objective: To study the rate of symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage (SxICH) and major systemic hemorrhage (MSH) after acute stroke treatments among different ethnicities/races. Background: Studies have reported ethnic/racial disparities in intravenous tPA treatment (IV tPA). The adverse outcome of tPA and/or intra-arterial intervention (IA) among different ethnicities/races requires investigation. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed all patients from an IRB-approved registry between June 2004 and June 2018.

Association of ADH1B polymorphism and alcohol consumption with increased risk of intracerebral hemorrhagic stroke
Alcohol consumption is one of the modifiable risk factors for intracerebral hemorrhage, which accounts for approximately 10 –20% of all strokes worldwide. We evaluated the association of stroke with genetic pol...

IJERPH, Vol. 15, Pages 2615: Reduced Risks of Both Ischemic and Hemorrhagic Strokes in Nurses: A Population-Based Cohort Study in Taiwan
Conclusion: The risks of both stroke types were lower in the nurse group than in the control. For stroke prevention, more frequent physical examinations are needed in order to enhance the health and well-being of people, including the nurses.

Long-Term Effectiveness of Cilostazol in Patients with Hemodialysis with Peripheral Artery Disease
CONCLUSION: Continuous treatment of cilostazol in patients with HD with PAD significantly decreases the risk of ED visits, hemorrhagic stroke, and cardiovascular events and improves ED visit-free and cardiovascular event-free rates during long-term follow-up.PMID:36216573 | DOI:10.5551/jat.63404

Effect of initiating statin therapy on long-term outcomes of patients with dyslipidemia after intracerebral hemorrhage
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) has a higher mortality than ischemic stroke. Statin is beneficial for stroke, but high potency statin treatment has been associated with the risk of hemorrhagic stroke. The aim of this study was to assess the impact of initiating statin therapy after ICH on cardiovascular outcomes.

Association of digoxin with mortality in patients with advanced chronic kidney disease: A population-based cohort study
In conclusion, our study demonstrated that digoxin use was associated with increased mortality, but not cardiovascular events or renal function decline in advanced CKD patients. This finding warns the safety of presc ribing digoxin in this population. Future prospective studies are needed to overcome the limitations of cohort study design.

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.
