Triggering of Stroke or Atrial Fibrillation by Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
I have read the article entitled “Percutaneous Coronary Intervention as a Trigger for Stroke” by Varmdal et al. 1 with great interest, recently published in journal. Their estimates indicated a substantially increased risk of ischemic stroke during the first 2 days after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Relative risk t hen decreased gradually but stayed elevated for 8 weeks. Increased awareness of this vulnerable period after PCI in clinicians and patients could contribute to earlier detection and treatment for patients suffering a postprocedural stroke 1.

Effects of Smoking on Ischemic Stroke, Intracranial Hemorrhage, and Coronary Artery Events in Japanese Patients With Non-Valvular Atrial Fibrillation.
Authors: Suzuki S, Otsuka T, Sagara K, Semba H, Kano H, Matsuno S, Takai H, Kato Y, Uejima T, Oikawa Y, Nagashima K, Kirigaya H, Yajima J, Kunihara T, Sawada H, Aizawa T, Yamashita T Abstract The effects of smoking on the prognosis of non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) patients are unclear.The Shinken Database 2004-11 (n = 17,517) includes all new patients visiting the Cardiovascular Institute between June 2004 and March 2012. Among these cases, 2,102 NVAF patients were identified. The effects of smoking on ischemic stroke (IS), intracranial hemorrhage (ICH), and coronary artery events including percutaneous c...

Refractory Stroke Thrombectomy: Prevalence, Etiology, and Adjunctive Treatment in a North American Cohort INTERVENTIONAL
CONCLUSIONS: Refractory stroke thrombectomy is encountered in <10% of cases, independently associated with diabetes, and related to underlying vessel wall pathology (intracranial atherosclerotic disease and/or intracranial arterial dissection) or, less commonly, recalcitrant emboli. Emergent salvage interventions with glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors or intracranial angioplasty and/or stenting are safe and effective adjunctive treatments.

E-025 Aspiration thrombectomy of acute ischemic stroke patients with intracranial atherosclerotic disease or tandem lesion
ConclusionAspiration thrombectomy was effective in restoring blood flow and resulting in good 90-day functional outcome in AIS patients with anterior circulation tandem lesion, and the 90-day mortality rate in these patients was low. No significant difference in outcomes was detected between patients with a stent and patients without a stent.Disclosures O.

Prevalence and Determinants of Atrial Fibrillation-associated In-hospital Ischemic Stroke in patients with Acute Myocardial Infarction undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
Atrial Fibrillation (AF) is an established risk factor ischemic stroke (IS) and is commonly encountered in patient hospitalized with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Uncommonly, IS can occur as a complication resulting from percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). There is limited real world data regarding AF-associated in-hospital IS (IH-IS) in patients admitted with AMI undergoing PCI. We queried the National Inpatient Sample database from January 2010 to December 2014 to identify patients admitted with AMI who underwent PCI.

Risk of Stroke vs. Intracerebral Hemorrhage in Patients with Non-Valvular Atrial Fibrillation Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials Comparing Dual vs. Triple Antithrombotic Therapy
About 15% of patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation might require percutaneous coronary interventions (PCIs) with stent placement to treat obstructive coronary artery disease. Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) with acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) and P2Y12 antagonist is recommended after PCI. Patients requiring DAPT also require treatment with oral anticoagulation for atrial fibrillation. We conducted a meta-analysis to identify the antithrombotic regimen associated with the lowest rate of bleeding and thromboembolic events in non-valvular atrial fibrillation after PCI.

Stroke Risk Stratification With the CHADS2 Score in Patients Without Atrial Fibrillation Who Underwent Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
The clinical significance of the CHADS2 score remains unclear in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) without atrial fibrillation (AF). Therefore, the purpose of this study was to evaluate the association between the CHADS2 score and the long-term risk of ischemic stroke and its severity in patients with CAD with and without AF. Using the CREDO (Coronary Revascularization Demonstrating Outcome study)-Kyoto Registry Cohort-3, the present study population consisted of 11,516 patients with CAD who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention without oral anticoagulants at discharge.

Angiographical Identification of Intracranial, Atherosclerosis-Related, Large Vessel Occlusion in Endovascular Treatment
Conclusions Among only a few identification methods, the ICAS-LVO can be feasibly identified by angiographical findings. The identification of ICAS-LVO based on based on occlusion type, is a reliable and practical identification method for ICAS-LVO. Procedural details by occlusion type and its predictability to endovascular results were reported. Furthermore, occlusion type can be determined before or in the early stages of the procedure, which may be most helpful in setting up an optimal endovascular treatment strategy. Author Contributions J-HB established the study idea, designed the manuscript structure, acquired an...

Simultaneous thrombosis of 2 vascular territories: is thrombolytic therapy a better option?
We have read with great interest the article by Akyuz and colleagues in the American Journal of Emergency Medicine and congratulate them for their observation. Their case exemplifies the concurrent occurrence of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and posterior circulation stroke that was eventually managed with thrombolytic therapy. Simultaneous thrombosis of 2 distant vascular territories is a rare and complicated clinical scenario. In these instances, there is usually an underlying cause linking both thrombotic events rather than being a mere coincidence. We have previously described the myocardial infarc...

Differential Occurrence, Profile, and Impact of First Recurrent Cardiovascular Events After an Acute Coronary Syndrome
Conclusions Approximately 9% of patients experienced a first cardiovascular event in the post-ACS setting during a median follow-up of 1year. While the profile and prognostic implications of stroke versus MI as the first nonfatal event differ substantially, approximately one-third of these patients experienced a second event, typically soon after the first event. These findings have implications for improving post-ACS care and influencing the design of future cardiovascular trials.

A Case of Transient Global Amnesia: A Review and How It May Shed Further Insight into the Neurobiology of Delusions
Conclusion In closing, our patient’s episode of TGA combined with her emotional and perceptual response lends credence to the proposal of a “fear/paranoia” circuit in the genesis of paranoid delusions—a circuit incorporating amygdala, frontal, and parietal cortices. Here, neutral or irrelevant stimuli, thoughts, and percepts come to engender fear and anxiety, while dysfunction in frontoparietal circuitry engenders inappropriate social predictions and maladaptive inferences about the intentions of others.[54] Hippocampus relays information about contextual information based on past experiences and the current situat...

1-Year Clinical Outcomes in Women After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement: Results From the First WIN-TAVI Registry
Conclusions Intermediate to high-risk women enrolled in this first ever all-women contemporary TAVR registry experienced a 1-year VARC-2 composite efficacy endpoint of 16.5%, with a low incidence of 1-year mortality and stroke. Prior revascularization and EuroSCORE I were independent predictors of the VARC-2 efficacy endpoint, whereas EuroSCORE I, baseline atrial fibrillation, and prior percutaneous coronary intervention were independent predictors of the 1-year death or stroke.
