Comparison of hospital length of stay of acute ischemic stroke patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation started on rivaroxaban or warfarin treatment during hospitalization.
Conclusions: The rivaroxaban users had a 3-day shorter LOS-OAC after IPTW-adjustment. Using rivaroxaban was associated with a 4 to 5 days shorter LOS-OAC than using warfarin in patients with mild or moderate stroke, though treatment selection did not have a large impact in patients with severe stroke.

Epidemiology of Stroke in a General Japanese Population: The Hisayama Study
J Atheroscler Thromb. 2023 May 30. doi: 10.5551/jat.RV22004. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe Hisayama Study is an ongoing epidemiological study of stroke, coronary artery disease (CAD), and other noncommunicable diseases in a general Japanese population established in 1961. According to the longitudinal data from the Hisayama Study, average levels of systolic blood pressure among hypertensive individuals have decreased with time since 1961. In contrast, the prevalence of metabolic risk factors such as obesity, hypercholesterolemia, and glucose intolerance has increased with time. The incidence rates of ischemic stroke in...

Predictors of Cardioembolic Stroke in Japanese Patients with Atrial Fibrillation in the Fushimi AF Registry
Conclusions: In this population-based cohort of Japanese patients with AF, in addition to previous stroke/TIA and older age, sustained AF and low body weight emerged as risk factors for CES, as opposed to any stroke, which may have a different risk profile. Patients with CKD or previous stroke/TIA who developed cardioembolic infarction exhibited more advanced severity. There is a need for direct oral anticoagulants that can be used safely in patients with comorbid AF and CKD.Cerebrovasc Dis Extra 2018;8:50 –59

Development of Quality Indicators of Stroke Centers and Feasibility of Their Measurement Using a Nationwide Insurance Claims Database in Japan  - J-ASPECT Study.
CONCLUSIONS: We developed QIs for primary and comprehensive stroke care. The DPC database may allow efficient data collection at low cost and decreased burden to evaluate the developed QIs. PMID: 31554766 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
