Sex Differences in Long-Term Functional Decline after Ischemic Stroke: A Longitudinal Observational Study from the Fukuoka Stroke Registry
Conclusion: This longitudinal observational study suggests that female sex was independently associated with an increased risk of functional decline in the chronic phase of stroke, especially in older patients. There was no sex difference in 5-year stroke recurrence, and thus, other factors might be involved in more significant deterioration of functional status in female survivors of ischemic stroke. Further studies are needed to elucidate underlying causes of sex differences in long-term functional decline after stroke.Cerebrovasc Dis

Relationship Between MicroRNA Signature and Arterial Stiffness in Patients With Ischemic Stroke
CONCLUSIONS: The expression level of let-7i was independently related to arterial stiffness in patients with cerebral infarction, suggesting that it plays a pathophysiological role in atherosclerosis.PMID:36606643 | DOI:10.3988/jcn.2023.19.1.28

An Autopsy Study of Cerebrovascular Atherosclerosis in the Elderly
Conclusion: This study concludes that the pattern of atherosclerosis is different in the Indian population as compared to the western literature. Intracranial atherosclerosis is more common in Indian population with the anterior portion of circle of Willis being more commonly affected.

Comparison of primary and secondary stroke prevention in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation: Results from the RAFFINE registry
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a predictor of severe stroke and early death in acute ischemic stroke patients.1 The prevalence of AF has increased as the Japanese population has aged.2 AF has been more common among patients with ischemic stroke than previously reported.3 In particular, AF patients with a history of stroke or TIA have had higher risks for stroke, hemorrhagic events, and death compared to those without.4,5 In these previous studies, most patients received warfarin for anticoagulation therapy.

Post Stroke Mirror Movements Preventing Performance of Bilateral Movements and Activities of Daily Living
We report the rare case of a patient with MMs of the affected hand due to atherothrombotic cerebral infarction of the right postcentral and precentral gyri. An 85-year-old Japanese man presented with left-sided hemiplegia and sensory impairment. MMs were observed in the left (affected) hand during many ADLs and could not be suppressed by the patient ’s will even when the examiner verbally instructed the patient to move only the unaffected hand. The patient was aware that his hand moved on its own, but he could not control it. The patient was trained on various types of bilateral coordinated motor exercises for 114 days a...

Control of Diabetes Mellitus and Long-Term Prognosis in Stroke Patients: The Shiga Stroke and Heart Attack Registry
Conclusions: The findings suggest that first-ever stroke patients with diabetes exhibited a higher risk of all-cause mortality than those without diabetes, particularly in the overall stroke and ischemic stroke populations. Additionally, in stroke populations after 28 days of onset, high risk of long-term mortality was stated in stroke patients with poor HbA1c control.Cerebrovasc Dis
