Clinical Characteristics of PFO Stroke in Pregnancy (P2.274)
CONCLUSIONS: PFO may pose unique risks compared to non-PFO related stroke in pregnancy. Novel risk factors such as May-Thurner’s anatomy, which promote venous clotting with the increase in abdominal girth are important during pregnancy. For high risk individuals (such as those with known hypercoagulable state), screening for PFO may be of clinical utility in preventing strokes. Further studies are ongoing to validate these preliminary findings. Study Supported by: None.Disclosure: Dr. Chen has nothing to disclose. Dr. Deng has nothing to disclose.

Long Distance Travel Potentiates Other Novel Risk Factors in PFO Related Strokes - "Economy Class Strokes" (S55.006)
ConclusionPFOs are highly prevalent in the general population, but they are usually only discovered after a stroke - so effective risk assessment and prevention are key. Our results suggest that both air and land travel are risk factors for PFO-related stroke, and the coexistence of additional risk factors potentiates risk associated with immobilization. These results help to individualize care: high-risk patients may benefit from pre-travel education, or DVT prophylaxis.Study Supported by: NIH/NINDSDisclosure: Dr. Ning has nothing to disclose.

Cardiovascular Risk Factors in Young Adults with Stroke from the AISYF Study (P2.110)

Synthetic Cannabis and Acute Ischemic Stroke (P6.259)
CONCLUSIONS:These cases introduce a previously unreported association between synthetic cannabis use and ischemic stroke in young adults. Our two cases had risk factors for ischemic stroke but were otherwise young and healthy and the onset of their deficits occurred within hours after first-time exposure to synthetic cannabis. Synthetic cannabis use is an important consideration in the investigation of stroke in young adults.Disclosure: Dr. Bernson-Leung has nothing to disclose. Dr. Leung has nothing to disclose.

Migraine and cryptogenic stroke: The clot thickens
The connection of migraine and stroke was first recognized 40 years ago in a study of stroke in young women.1 The study centered on the relationship of stroke and oral contraceptives, but uncovered an association of migraine with both ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke even in those not using the pill. Over the ensuing years, a growing number of epidemiologic,2 imaging,3 and genetic investigations4 have supported this early observation of an independent migraine/stroke link. Overall, the epidemiologic data have been strongest for ischemic stroke in young women with migraine with aura, but the relationship is also evident for ...

Characteristics of Code Stroke Cases in a Level 1 Trauma U.S. Military Treatment Facility: Comparison with a Civilian Stroke Center (P3.265)
Conclusions:The proportion of code strokes ultimately diagnosed with AISor TIA in our facility is lower than that reported in a civilian stroke center, and the proportion of functional diagnoses is higher. Further studies are needed to describe the reasons for these differences, which may be unique to military populations.Disclosure: Dr. Koehn has nothing to disclose.

Patient Factors Do Not Predict Thrombolysis in Stroke Mimics (P6.031)
CONCLUSIONS: Physician decision to administer thrombolysis in stroke mimic patients without clear contraindication is not associated with patient demographic or clinical factors. Our study is limited by its retrospective nature and small sample size, however continued data collection is in process.Disclosure: Dr. Gildersleeve has nothing to disclose.

Ischemic stroke in a patient with Parry-Romberg syndrome (P4.064)
Conclusions:The only other reported patient with PRS and stroke was also found to have a PFO. It is possible that the elevated ANA seen in this patient correlates with propensity towards small venous clots not seen on ultrasound. This may lead to paradoxical emboli and ischemic strokes. It is important to note this potential association between PRS and ischemic stroke in young patients without other known risk factors. It would be worthwhile to treat this subset of patients with medications for secondary stroke prevention.Disclosure: Dr. Ebiana has nothing to disclose. Dr. Singh has nothing to disclose.

Role of pulse wave velocity for the diagnosis of dizziness or vertigo due to stroke (P6.047)
Conclusions:Increased PWV values were detected in patients with dizziness or vertigo due to stroke. PWV value may be used as a predictor of central vertigo even though there should be more convincing evidences.Disclosure: Dr. Cho has nothing to disclose. Dr. Kim has nothing to disclose.

Stroke in a Young Patient: A Sentinel Presentation of Neurosyphilis and HIV (P2.109)
Conclusions: Neurosyphilis should be a diagnostic consideration in young patients with ischemic stroke. Clinicians should be aware of the high incidence of concomitant syphilis and HIV in at-risk populations. Effort should be made to inquire about high-risk behaviors and initiate testing for these infections early in the diagnostic workup to avoid missing these crucial diagnoses.Disclosure: Dr. Flaherty has nothing to disclose.

Education Status and Ischemic Stroke in Young: A Potential Target towards Future Population Based Preventive Strategies. (P5.117)
Conclusion: Risk factors associated with IS in young patients are different among those with NCE as compared with those having CE. Larger studies need to be performed to expand on our knowledge of risk factors in NCE and CE young IS individuals which can help target population based preventive measures to decrease the rising incidence and burden of stroke in the young.Disclosure: Dr. Vaishnav has nothing to disclose.

Facial Colliculus and Opalski Stroke Syndromes Caused by Vertebral Artery Dissection. Case Report (P4.349)
Conclusion: Brainstem stroke syndromes are challenging to localize before brain imaging. In this case two embolic strokes happened. The first in the right facial colliculus causing the right 6th and 7th cranial nerves palsy. The second happened in the left lateral medulla extending below the pyramidal decussation causing a classical left lateral medullary syndrome with ipsilateral hemiparesis, which constitute a left Opalski stroke syndrome.Disclosure: Dr. Alghamdi has nothing to disclose.
