Family resilience and its predictors among patients with a first-ever stroke one month after stroke: a cross-sectional study
CONCLUSION: Family resilience was low among stroke patients one month after the onset. Special attention should be paid to families of patients who were divorced, cared for by siblings, or have low social support or self-efficacy in managing stroke. Further research on family-based interventions may focus on increasing patient social support and promoting their self-efficacy in managing stroke.PMID:36602132 | DOI:10.1080/10749357.2023.2165270

Association between percent decline in serum total homocysteine and risk of first stroke
Conclusions: Percent lowering in tHcy was significantly associated with a reduction in first stroke risk in Chinese adults with hypertension, and if further confirmed, may serve as a useful indicator for folic acid treatment efficacy on stroke prevention. Clinicaltrials.gov identifier: NCT00794885.

Stroke Center Care and Outcome: Results from the CSPPC Stroke Program
AbstractThe aim of this study was to assess the association between admission to stroke centers for acute ischemic stroke and complications and mortality during hospitalization in a Chinese population by means of an observational study using data from the China Stroke Center Data-Sharing Platform. We compared in-hospital complications and mortality for patients admitted with acute ischemic stroke (N = 13,236) between November 1, 2018 and December 31, 2018 at stroke center (SH) and non-stroke center (CH) hospitals using distance to hospitals as an instrumental variable to adjust for potential prehospital selection bias....

Distribution of risk factors differs from coronary heart disease and stroke in China: a national population survey
Conclusions The distribution of risk factors for CHD and stroke were substantial differences. More specific prevention and control measures should be formulated according to the distribution differences of risk factors related to CVD.

Associations of Rheumatoid Factor, Rheumatoid Arthritis, and Interleukin-6 Inhibitor with the Prognosis of Ischemic Stroke: a Prospective Multicenter Cohort Study and Mendelian Randomization Analysis
AbstractRheumatoid factor (RF), an established diagnostic biomarker for rheumatoid arthritis (RA), is associated with cardiovascular diseases, but its impact on clinical outcomes of ischemic stroke remains unclear. We aimed to investigate the observational associations between serum RF and prognosis of ischemic stroke, and further examined the genetic associations of RA and its therapeutic strategy, interleukin-6 (IL-6) inhibitor, with prognosis of ischemic stroke. We measured serum RF levels in 3474 Chinese ischemic stroke patients from the China Antihypertensive Trial in Acute Ischemic Stroke. The primary outcome was the...

Effect of Qigong exercise on motor function in stroke patients: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
CONCLUSIONS: Available evidence supported potential benefits of Qigong exercise for improving motor functions of stroke patients. As a safe and widely applicable exercise, Qigong is worthy of further promotion in the rehabilitation of stroke patients.PMID:37489736 | DOI:10.1080/10749357.2023.2240582

Comparison of Associations of Outcomes After Stroke With Estimated GFR Using Chinese Modifications of the MDRD Study and CKD-EPI Creatinine Equations: Results From the China National Stroke Registry
Background: The CKD-EPI (Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration) creatinine equation estimates glomerular filtration rate (GFR) more precisely than the MDRD (Modification of Diet in Renal Disease) Study equation. The risk implications of this equation have been compared with the MDRD Study equation in different demographic and clinical characteristics. However, whether a Chinese modification of this equation performs better than a Chinese modification of the MDRD Study equation in risk prediction in Chinese patients with stroke is unknown.Study Design: Prospective cohort study, China National Stroke Registry.Set...

Unfavorable Outcome of Thrombolysis in Chinese Patients with Cardioembolic Stroke: a Prospective Cohort Study.
CONCLUSIONS: Patients with cardioembolic stroke had more SICH after thrombolysis, and worse clinical outcome at 3-month follow-up compared with those with LAA. This emphasizes the importance of preventing cardioembolism. PMID: 26096605 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Serum matrix metalloproteinase-9 levels and prognosis of acute ischemic stroke
Conclusions: Higher serum MMP-9 levels in the acute phase of ischemic stroke were associated with increased risk of mortality and major disability, suggesting that serum MMP-9 could be an important prognostic factor for ischemic stroke.

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.
