Date of birth and the incidence of acute ischemic stroke in Hungary
CONCLUSIONS: This, however, cannot be defined as a causal relationship if we consider the number of live births in 1949, as both measures change similarly during the year, as indicated by the strong positive correlation between thrombolysis frequency according to date of birth between 2007 and 2016 and the number of births in the 1949 census by month.PMID:36098448 | DOI:10.33588/rn.7506.2021479

Ischaemic stroke due to basilar artery occlusion in a puerperal patient with SARS-CoV-2 infection
CONCLUSION: Severe SARS-CoV-2 disease results in a prothrombotic state that correlates with the prognosis of the disease. The last trimester of pregnancy and the puerperium are known prothrombotic risk factors. Recommendations for anticoagulation management in pregnant patients with COVID-19 are based on limited evidence. This is the first case to be published in Spain involving cerebral arterial thrombosis in a pregnant patient with SARS-CoV-2 infection.PMID:35866535 | DOI:10.33588/rn.7504.2021373

Sex and Gender Considerations in Episodic Migraine
AbstractPurpose of ReviewWe seek to update readers on recent advances in our understanding of sex and gender in episodic migraine with a two part series. In part 1, we examine migraine epidemiology in the context of sex and gender, differences in symptomatology, and the influence of sex hormones on migraine pathophysiology (including CGRP). In part 2, we focus on practical clinical considerations for sex and gender in episodic migraine by addressing menstrual migraine and the controversial topic of hormone-containing therapies. We make note of data applicable to gender minority populations, when available, and summarize kn...

Pregnancy and stroke risk in women
Neurobiol Dis. 2022 Apr 24:105735. doi: 10.1016/j.nbd.2022.105735. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTStroke associated with pregnancy and post-partum occurs in about 30 per 100,000 deliveries, and includes subtypes of ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke as well as cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST). There are a wide variety of underlying causes and risk factors, some that are common to both pregnant and non-pregnant women, and others that are unique to pregnancy. Although some of the strokes that occur may be a direct result of the pregnancy itself, such as hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, others could be anticipated or p...

Trends in the Incidence and Risk Factors of Pregnancy-Associated Stroke
The objective of this review is to summarize studies on time trends of PAS in relation to trends in the prevalence of stroke risk factors in pregnant women. Seven retrospective national healthcare register-based cohort studies from the US, Canada, UK, Sweden, and Finland were identified. Five studies from the US, Canada, and Finland reported an increasing trend of PAS. Potential biases include more sensitive diagnostics and improved stroke awareness among pregnant women and professionals toward the end of the study period. However, the concurrent increase in the prevalence of several stroke risk factors among pregnant wome...

Maternal Stroke Associated With Pregnancy
This article summarizes current knowledge of the epidemiology, pathophysiology, prevention, and treatment of cerebrovascular disease in pregnant and postpartum women. RECENT FINDINGS Stroke is a leading cause of maternal morbidity and mortality, and most fatal strokes are preventable. Adaptive physiologic changes of pregnancy, including hemodynamic changes, venous stasis, hypercoagulability, and immunomodulation, contribute to increased maternal stroke risk. The highest-risk time period for maternal stroke is the immediate postpartum period. Migraine and hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, including gestational hyp...

Cerebrovascular disease in pregnancy and postpartum
Purpose of review Cerebrovascular disorders during pregnancy and puerperium are uncommon but potentially serious entities. This review aims to provide guidance on the diagnosis and management of these diseases, according to the most recent findings. Recent findings Proteinuria is no longer a mandatory criterion for the diagnosis of preeclampsia. Favourable long-term foetal and maternal outcomes are achieved in most patients with ruptured cerebral arterial malformations during pregnancy receiving interventional treatment prior to delivery. Despite the recent recommendations, physicians still hesitate to administe...

Migraine and Medical Ramifications: A Comprehensive Overview Based on Observational Study Meta-Analyses
Conclusion: The results showed that migraine increased the risk of 29 health outcomes, though lowered the risk of breast cancer. However, evidence quality was graded as high only for angina. The evidence quality of ischaemic stroke, stroke, MACCE, WMAs, and asthma was graded as moderate. All remaining 24 outcomes had an evidence grade of “weak.”

Cervical Artery Dissection in Young Women: Risk of Recurrence During Subsequent Pregnancies
Conclusion In this study, there were no CAD recurrences during subsequent pregnancies or postpartum, irrespective of the type of delivery. Thus, pregnancy after a history of CAD appears to be safe.

Comparison of Clevidipine and Nicardipine for Acute Blood Pressure Reduction in Hemorrhagic Stroke
ConclusionsIn patients with hemorrhagic stroke, nicardipine appeared to have similar efficacy as clevidipine in SBP reduction, with a more likely reduction of rebound hypertension and drug cost. This retrospective study was underpowered, which may limit these implications. Further prospective studies are warranted to confirm these results.
