Patent Foramen Ovale-associated Stroke and COVID-19 Vaccination
Case –control studies have shown an association between patent foramen ovale (PFO) and cryptogenic stroke, which was observed particularly in patients younger than 55 years without conventional risk factors. The role of PFO closure in preventing stroke recurrence had been uncertain for many years, unt il four randomised clinical trials in 2017 and 2018 unequivocally demonstrated a benefit, with the number needed t...

ADAMTS-13 activity in stroke of known and unknown cause: Relation to vascular risk factor burden
CONCLUSION: ADAMTS-13 activity is inversely correlated with the number of vascular risk factors across different stroke etiologies. Further study is warranted to establish ADAMTS-13 as a mediator of cerebrovascular risk.PMID:36703637 | PMC:PMC9871749 | DOI:10.3389/fneur.2022.1045478

Net clinical benefit of PFO closure versus medical treatment in patients with cryptogenic stroke: A systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSION: The NCB between PFO closure and medical treatment was not different, suggesting individualized treatment to maximize benefit.PMID:36584788 | DOI:10.1016/j.hjc.2022.12.010

Transcatheter Patent Foramen Ovale Closure in Patients With Transient Ischemic Attack
The objectives of this study were to determine the clinical and procedural characteristics and long-term outcomes of patients with TIA who underwent transcatheter PFO closure. This was a multicenter study including 1,012 consecutive patients who underwent PFO closure after a cerebrovascular event. Patients were divided into 2 groups according to their index event leading to PFO closure: TIA (n = 183 [18%]), and stroke (n = 829 [82%]).

Percutaneous Patent Foramen Ovale Closure After Stroke
Korean Circ J. 2022 Nov;52(11):801-807. doi: 10.4070/kcj.2022.0258.ABSTRACTPercutaneous patent foramen ovale (PFO) closure in patients with a prior PFO-associated stroke showed a risk reduction of the stroke recurrence compared to the medical therapy alone in recent several studies. Nevertheless, optimal patient selection for PFO closure has not been clarified. In this paper, we discuss the characteristics of PFO-associated strokes and discuss the recently published evidence and patient selection for PFO closure in patients with ischemic stroke. The lesions characteristics of PFO-associated stroke are associated with multi...
