Guillain-Barre syndrome in Mexico: clinical features and validation of Brighton Collaboration Group criteria
CONCLUSION: GBS is a frequent autoimmune neuropathy that has been associated with preceding infections and with vaccination campaigns. For SARS-CoV-2 vaccination campaign in Mexico, validation of Brighton Criteria is necessary. Although Mexico's GBS epidemiology has been changing throughout recent years, this study provides similar data compared to other countries.PMID:35383873 | DOI:10.33588/rn.7408.2021437

Vascular Risk Factor Prevalence and Trends in Native Americans with Ischemic Stroke
Native Americans have a higher incidence and prevalence of stroke and the highest stroke-related mortality among race-ethnic groups in the United States. We aimed to analyze trends in the ischemic stroke (IS) vascular risk factor prevalence in Native Americans along with a comparison to the other race-ethnic groups.

Quality of Care and Outcomes for Patients with Acute Ischemic Stroke and Transient Ischemic Attack During the COVID-19 Pandemic
Hospitalizations for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) and transient ischemic attack (TIA) decreased during the COVID-19 pandemic. We compared the quality of care and outcomes for patients with AIS/TIA before vs. during the COVID-19 pandemic across the United States Department of Veterans Affairs healthcare system.

Educational Intervention in the Emergency Department to Address Disparities in Stroke Knowledge
In the United States, Black individuals have higher stroke incidence and mortality when compared to white individuals and are also at risk of having lower stroke knowledge and awareness. With the need to implement focused interventions to decrease stroke disparities, the objective of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of an emergency department-based educational intervention aimed at increasing stroke awareness and preparedness among a disproportionately high-risk group.

Endovascular Therapy is Effective for Large Vessel Occlusion Despite Concurrent Cancer
Ischemic stroke and concurrent cancer is increasingly recognized. However, optimal management is uncertain. As mechanical thrombectomy has become the standard of care for large vessel occlusion, more patients with cancer are presenting for embolectomy. However, it is unknown whether this subgroup has the same benefit profile described in multiple randomized trials for thrombectomy for large vessel occlusion. Our objective was to retrospectively evaluate a North American embolectomy database for safety and outcomes in patients with active cancer.

Annual Direct Cost of Dysphagia Associated with Acute Ischemic Stroke in the United States
Dysphagia after acute ischemic stroke is frequent and increases the risk of pneumonia, insertion of feeding tube, hospital length-of-stay and rates of discharge to institutional care. However, the financial impact of dysphagia after acute ischemic stroke is not well understood.

Lessons Learned From the Historical Trends on Thrombolysis Use for Acute Ischemic Stroke Among Medicare Beneficiaries in the United States
ConclusionsBetween 2007 and 2014, the frequency of IVT for patients with acute ischemic stroke increased substantially, though differences persisted in the form of less frequent treatment associated with certain characteristics. These findings can inform ongoing efforts to optimize the delivery of IVT to all AIS patients nationwide.

Health and cognition among adults with and without Traumatic Brain Injury: A matched case-control study
CONCLUSION: Individuals with TBI have greater odds of selected neurobehavioral conditions compared to their demographically similar uninjured peers. Among persons with TBI there was a stronger association between poorer self-rated health and cognition than controls. TBI is increasingly conceptualized as a chronic disease; current findings suggest post-TBI health management requires cognitive supports.PMID:35143349 | DOI:10.1080/02699052.2022.2034190

Global Metabolomic Profiling Reveals Disrupted Lipid and Amino Acid Metabolism Between the Acute and Chronic Stages of Ischemic Stroke
Stroke is a major cause of serious disability in the United States. Previous studies found multiple associations of serum metabolites with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) compared to controls, but few of them evaluated metabolome in a longitudinal fashion. Therefore, we compared the metabolome of the acute and chronic stages of ischemic stroke.

An observational epidemiological study to analyze intracerebral hemorrhage across the United States: Incidence and mortality trends from 1990 to 2017
Intracerebral Hemorrhage (ICH) accounts for 10% of strokes annually in the United States (US). Up-to-date trends in disease burden and regional variations remain unknown. Our study reports updated trends of ICH incidence, mortality, and mortality to incidence ratio (MIR) across the US.

Association Between Dispatch Complaint and Critical Prehospital Time Intervals in Suspected Stroke 911 Activations in the National Emergency Medical Services Information System, 2012 –2016
Stroke, one of the leading causes of death and disability in the United States (US), is a time sensitive emergency.1 Receiving timely treatment is associated with increased survival and better outcomes.2 –5 For every minute that treatment is delayed, a patient with stroke may lose an estimated 1.9 million neurons, leading to irreversible brain tissue damage long term disability, or death.6 Several studies have demonstrated that treatment with intravenous recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activat or (IV alteplase) can positively affect clinical outcomes when administered within a critical timeframe after ischemic stroke symptom onset.
