Long-term Incidence of Ischemic Stroke Following Transient Ischemic Attack: A Nationwide Study During 2014-2020
Conclusions: Patients with first-time TIA had an ischemic stroke incidence of 6.1% during the 5-year follow-up period. Following adjustment for relevant comorbidities, this incidence was approximately five-fold higher than what was found for controls in the background population, and 40% lower than for patients with recurrent ischemic stroke.PMID:37622531 | DOI:10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.123.065446

Temporal trends in stroke admissions in Denmark 1997--2009
Conclusion: This study found a constant rate of stroke hospitalization in Denmark from 1997--2009. The overall rate of hospitalized strokes adjusted for age decreased during this period.

Long working hours and stroke among employees in the general workforce of Denmark.
CONCLUSIONS: Our analysis does not support the hypothesis that long working hours are associated with increased rates of overall stroke. It suggests, however, that long working hours might be associated with increased rates of haemorrhagic stroke. PMID: 29251227 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Abstract 4: Variation in Published Stroke Rates Results in Wide Variation in the Net Clinical Benefit of Anticoagulation for Atrial Fibrillation Session Title: QCOR 2018 Young Investigator Award Finalists
Conclusion: Using current guidelines, variation in published off-anticoagulation stroke rates results in tenfold variation in the estimated net clinical benefit of anticoagulation. Guidelines should better reflect the uncertainty of the current approach that uses a CHA2DS2-VASc threshold to recommend anticoagulation.

Significant others' perspectives on person-centred information and communication technology in stroke rehabilitation - a grounded theory study.
CONCLUSION: Information and communication technology has the potential to facilitate participation in everyday life after stroke. It is important, therefore, to start using information and communication technology in the rehabilitation process after stroke, to bring meaning to everyday life and to support both the stroke survivors and their significant others. IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATION Integration of information and communication technology in the rehabilitation process after stroke can accommodate several of the significant others´ needs. Educating stroke survivors to use information and communication technology as...

A Qualitative Inquiry Into Patient Reported Factors That Influence Time From Stroke Symptom Onset to Hospitalization
CONCLUSION: Response to stroke onset may be driven by perceptions of symptom severity and emotional response rather than the ability to correctly identify symptoms. Stroke education should include the information that new stroke symptoms may be different from the old ones because different parts of the brain may be affected.

A medical history of arterial thrombosis is a strong predictor of post-operative myocardial infarction and stroke in patients with hip fractures —a nationwide cohort study
ConclusionMI and stroke after hip fractures are overlooked and serious complications. Persons with elevated risk can be identified at admission, based on their medical history.

Adipose tissue fatty acids present in dairy fat and risk of stroke: the Danish Diet, Cancer and Health cohort
ConclusionsOur results suggest that a larger percentage in adipose tissue of fatty acids for which dairy products are a major source is associated with a lower rate of ischemic stroke.

Female Sex Is a Risk Modifier Rather Than a Risk Factor for Stroke in Atrial Fibrillation: Should We Use a CHA2DS2-VA Score Rather Than CHA2DS2-VASc?
CONCLUSIONS: Female sex is a risk modifier for stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation. Initial decisions on oral anticoagulant treatment could be guided by a CHA2DS2-VA score (ie, excluding the sex category criterion), but the Sc risk component modifies and accentuates stroke risk in women who would have been eligible for oral anticoagulant treatment on the basis of ≥2 additional stroke risk factors.

Married, unmarried, divorced, and widowed and the risk of stroke
ConclusionsDivorce was associated with higher risk of stroke, especially in men. Living in marriage or as unmarried or widower had only little or no impact on the risk of stroke.

The Serotonin Transporter Gene Polymorphisms and Risk of Ischemic Stroke
Conclusion: The presence of the high expression SERT genotype (LALA) may be associated with a lower risk of ischemic stroke/TIA. This is, to our knowledge, the first study examining the SERT gene polymorphisms and the risk of stroke. The present results raise interesting considerations for future personalized medicine potential, and we argue that further larger-scale studies with sufficient power to study subgroups according to stroke etiology and stroke-onset age are needed.Cerebrovasc Dis 2018;45:187 –192

Depression, stroke, and dementia in patients with myocardial infarction.
In conclusion, we found that preceding depression was associated with moderately increased mortality after MI, and that 
was associated with an increased risk of stroke and vascular dementia, but not dementia from other causes. PMID: 29619929 [PubMed - in process]

Effect of Variation in Published Stroke Rates on the Net Clinical Benefit of Anticoagulation for Atrial Fibrillation.
Conclusion: Variation in published AF stroke rates for patients not receiving anticoagulant therapy results in multifold variation in the net clinical benefit of anticoagulation. Guidelines should better reflect the uncertainty in current thresholds of stroke risk score for recommending anticoagulation. Primary Funding Source: None.
