Intravenous Thrombolysis Is Safe and Effective for the Cryptogenic Stroke in China: Data From the Thrombolysis Implementation and Monitor of Acute Ischemic Stroke in China (TIMS-China)
The intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) with recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) therapy is safe and efficient during the treatment of acute ischemic stroke. Nonetheless, the different outcomes among various stroke subgroups have limited data with regard to the safety and efficacy of cryptogenic stroke (CS). The present study compared the safety and efficacy when IVT with rt-PA was used for the treatment of CS and the other stroke subtypes.

External Validation of the Totaled Health Risks in Vascular Events Score to Predict Functional Outcome and Mortality in Patients Entered into the China National Stroke Registry
THRIVE (Totaled Health Risks in Vascular Events) score is a tool used to predict the functional outcome and mortality in patients with ischemic stroke at 3 months. This project aims to explore its prognostic value at 3, 6, and 12 months in Chinese stroke patients.

Red blood cell distribution width to platelet ratio predicts early neurological deterioration in acute ischemic stroke patients receiving intravenous thrombolysis
Stroke is a disease that seriously threatens human health, with high incidence, a high disability rate and high mortality.1 –4 The occurrence rate of stroke ranks second in China, and stroke is a major contributor to disability and the main cause of death in China.1,2,4 Stroke patients suffer from not only neurological dysfunction but also serious social and psychological obstacles, which seriously affect their quality of life and place a massive economic burden on their families and society.1,5,6 Acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is the most common type of stroke, accounting for approximately 70% of the stroke cases in China.

Significant Stroke Knowledge Deficiencies in Community Physician Improved with Stroke 120
Background and Purpose: In the existing model of community health service in China, community general practitioners play important roles in health promotion as well as prehospital stroke recognition and management. We recently engineered Stroke 120 based on FAST for China. This investigation aimed to investigate its acceptance in community physicians and promote their stroke related knowledge. Methods: We conducted an stroke education session to community physicians or family doctors (total of 435 participants), teaching both FAST and Stroke 120.

Visual stroke symptom triage tool to reduce delays due to limited English proficiency in Emergency department stroke activations
Limited English proficiency (LEP) may contribute to delays in care and worse outcomes in patients hospitalized with stroke. Limited access to interpreter services leads to delays in triage, code activation, imaging evaluations, and treatment. At our Comprehensive Stroke Center, 20% of patients with stroke have a Chinese dialect as a primary language and LEP. We sought to assess differences in stroke activation process times and IV alteplase treatment (IVT) rates between English and LEP (Chinese dialect) patients before and after implementation of a visual stroke symptom (VSS) triage tool.

Risk factors and pathogenic microorganism characteristics for pneumonia in convalescent patients with stroke: A retrospective study of 380 patients from a rehabilitation hospital
Stroke significantly impacts public health and ranks among the leading causes of death and disabilities, resulting in enormous costs measured in both health care resources and lost productivity. It results primarily from embolus or thrombosis for ischemic stroke and hypertension for hemorrhagic stroke, respectively [1]. In 2016, there were 5.5 million deaths and 116.4 million disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) owed to stroke [2]. As reported, the impact of stroke on the Chinese population is more severe compared to average global levels, and the prevalence of stroke continues to surpass that of ischemic heart disease [3 –4].

Co-Effect of Serum Galectin-3 and High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol on the Prognosis of Acute Ischemic Stroke
This study aimed to evaluate the coeffect of galectin-3 and HDL-C on death and vascular events within 1 year after ischemic stroke. Materials and Methods: Based on China Antihypertensive Trial in Acute Ischemic Stroke, a prospective study was conducted among 2970 patients with acute ischemic stroke. The primary outcome was a combination of death and vascular events within 1 year after ischemic stroke.

Assessing executive function following the early stage of mild Ischemic stroke with three brief screening tests
Stroke, as the main disabling disease around the world, brings heavy economic and social burden to all countries, including China, an aging country.1 Post-stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI), one of the most “invisible disabilities”, is common among stroke survivors and can have a significant effect upon a patient's quality of life.2,3 Among stroke patients, the prevalence of PSCI is 81.4% and cognitive impairment in post-stroke patients manifests in various cognitive domains, with executive functio n being the most common.

Lifestyle Factors and Gender-Specific Risk of Stroke in Adults with Diabetes Mellitus: A Case-Control Study
The lifestyle interventions are effective preventive measures for stroke in general population, and the stroke risk with lifestyle factors may be modified by gender, health conditions, etc. Therefore, we conducted a case-control study to investigate the gender-specific association between stroke risk and lifestyle factors in adults with diabetes based on the China National Stroke Screening Survey.

Is the Population Detected by Screening in China Truly at High Risk of Stroke?
The Chinese Stroke Screening and Prevention Project (CSSPP) considers patients with 3 or more risk factors to be at high risk of stroke, and does not quantitatively assess the risk for stroke. However, to detect high-risk groups more efficiently, a health risk appraisal (HRA) model should be used to assess individual risk of stroke.
