Anticoagulation for the acute management of ischemic stroke.
Authors: Robinson AA, Ikuta K, Soverow J Abstract Few prospective studies support the use of anticoagulation during the acute phase of ischemic stroke, though observational data suggest a role in certain populations. Depending on the mechanism of stroke, systemic anticoagulation may prevent recurrent cerebral infarction, but concomitantly carries a risk of hemorrhagic transformation. In this article, we describe a case where anticoagulation shows promise for ischemic stroke and review the evidence that has discredited its use in some circumstances while showing its potential in others.

Taking A Hot Bath Linked To Lower Risk Of Heart Disease And Stroke, Study Finds
(CNN) — Ending your day with a hot bath might have more benefits than just relaxation. It could also lower your risk of heart disease and stroke, a new study finds. Previous research on bathing has already shown that it’s beneficial for sleep quality and how healthy a person thinks they are. A new study, published Tuesday in the journal Heart, found that a daily hot bath is also associated with a 28% lower risk of heart disease, and a 26% lower risk of stroke — likely because taking a bath is also associated with lowering your blood pressure, the researchers said. They discovered this after tracking the b...

New research gathers more evidence for innovative stroke treatment
(University of Maryland School of Medicine) New research has provided more evidence that an innovative treatment strategy may help prevent brain swelling and death in stroke patients. J. Marc Simard, professor of neurosurgery at the University of Maryland School of Medicine, along with colleagues at Yale University and Massachusetts General Hospital, found that Cirara, an investigational drug, powerfully reduced brain swelling and death in patients who had suffered a type of large stroke called malignant infarction, which normally carries a high mortality rate.

The Role of Two Ectonucleotide Pyrophosphatase/Phosphodiesterases in Bone Mineralization and Stroke♦ Papers of the Week
♦ See referenced article, J. Biol. Chem. 2014, 289, 3294–3306 Purinergic signals and their metabolites are potent regulators of bone mineralization and platelet aggregation. Some members of the ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase (NPP) family metabolize these signals. Although NPPs share homologous catalytic domains, it is not well understood how these enzymes discriminate among substrates. In this Paper of the Week, a group led by Yale University's Demetrios Braddock describes the high-resolution structure of NPP4, which is involved in platelet aggregation, and compares it in structure-function studies wi...

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder Following Cerebrovascular Accident: A Case Report and Literature Review
We describe the case of a 58-year-old, right-handed man developed OCD 17 months after stroke resulting from lesion of the right middle cerebral artery infarction. The patient was successfully treated with sertraline up to 50 mg per day. His OCD behaviors largely reduced in 6 weeks, and the Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale score was reduced from 29 to 12 in 1 year.
