Association of education and feedback on hypertension management with risk for stroke and cardiovascular disease
CONCLUSIONS: This study does not support an association between education and feedback on hypertension management to primary care physicians and the risk for stroke or cardiovascular outcomes. The observed differences for mortality outcomes should be interpreted with caution.PMID:35179089 | DOI:10.1080/08037051.2022.2041393

Hemostasis Biomarkers and Risk of Sepsis: the REasons for Geographic And Racial Differences in Stroke (REGARDS) cohort.
CONCLUSION: Baseline fibrinogen, factor IX, and factor XI are associated with future episodes of sepsis. Hemostasis biomarkers may provide targets for sepsis mitigation or prevention. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved. PMID: 27512924 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Stroke alarm-Arterial ischemic stroke as one of the most time-critical emergencies in children and adolescents
Nervenarzt. 2022 Jan 24:1-9. doi: 10.1007/s00115-021-01252-4. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTArterial ischemic stroke in childhood and adolescence is one of the most time-critical emergencies in pediatrics. Nevertheless, it is often diagnosed with a considerable time delay which may be associated with low awareness, the sometimes nonspecific clinical presentation with a wide variety of differential diagnoses, and less established 'acute care structures'. The revascularisation strategies in adult stroke care are also potential and promising treatment options for children, even if available evidence is still limited. In the p...

Venous thromboembolism and stroke in pregnancy.
Authors: McLean K, Cushman M Abstract Pregnancy and the postpartum period substantially increase the risk for thrombotic events. Although the absolute risk for thrombosis is low, these events comprise a significant portion of maternal morbidity and mortality. The vast majority of such events are venous, although the risk for ischemic stroke also appears to be increased in pregnancy. This review will explore the overlapping and unique risk factors for venous and arterial thrombosis in pregnancy. Diagnosis and prevention will be discussed, and treatment will be briefly touched on. The benefit of using a multidiscipli...

Survey of confidence in use of stroke and bleeding risk calculators, knowledge of anticoagulants, and comfort with prescription of anticoagulation in challenging scenarios: SUPPORT-AF II study
AbstractHalf of patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and elevated stroke risk do not receive anticoagulation (AC). Explanations for undertreatment may relate to provider lack of confidence with or knowledge of the CHA2DS2-VASc stroke calculator, unfamiliarity with direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs), or uncertainty about use of AC after bleeding events or other challenging patient scenarios. We surveyed cardiology and primary care providers (PCPs) within a large healthcare system to investigate prescriber knowledge, confidence, and comfort prescribing AC for AF in challenging scenarios. Of 112 providers invited, 70 (63%) ...

Lipoprotein(a) and risk of cognitive impairment in Black and White Americans: the Reasons for Geographic and Racial Differences in Stroke cohort
CONCLUSION: Higher Lp(a) was associated with increased risk of cognitive impairment in Black but not White individuals. Future studies should evaluate the biological and social mechanisms through which race and Lp(a) interact to increase risk of cognitive impairment.PMID:37694266 | PMC:PMC10491800 | DOI:10.1016/j.rpth.2023.102170

Improving the Prescription of Oral Anticoagulants in Atrial Fibrillation: A Systematic Review.
CONCLUSION:  Interventions designed to improve appropriate prescription of OACs in eligible AF patients for stroke prevention can be effective. Successful approaches include education of HCPs; implementation of local guidelines; interdisciplinary medical care programs educating both HCPs and patients and persuasive interventions utilizing peer-group experts. Protocol registration: PROSPERO (CRD42016039654). PMID: 30669165 [PubMed - in process]

Perinatal thrombosis: implications for mothers and neonates.
Authors: O'Brien SH Abstract Stroke is more likely to occur in the perinatal period than any other time in childhood, and these events can lead to a lifetime of intellectual and motor disabilities, epilepsy, and behavioral challenges. This review describes the epidemiology and natural history of perinatal arterial ischemic stroke (PAIS) and cerebral sinovenous thrombosis (CSVT), risk factors for these complications, recent evidence regarding treatment strategies, and current gaps in knowledge. Existing evidence demonstrates the multifactorial etiology of symptomatic ischemic stroke in neonates, which includes a com...

Comprehensive Sickle Cell Disease Management Is Associated with Superior Grade Attainment and High School Graduation Rates
Discussion: In this cohort, a high percentage of patients (86.7%) graduated or were on track to graduate from high school. In the United States, approximately 90% of patients with SCD are African American. All patients analyzed here were African American. With this in mind, ACHSCDP patients' graduation rate compares favorably to estimated graduation rates across the US general population (84%), the U.S. African America population (76%), the U.S. sickle cell patient population (71%), the Ohio general population (84%), and the Ohio African American population (68%).The higher graduation rate among children at the ACHSCDP is ...

Evidence-Based Minireview: Mortality and thrombosis in patients receiving prothrombin complex concentrates or andexanet alfa for the management of direct oral factor Xa inhibitor-associated major bleeding.
Authors: Kimpton M, Siegal DM Abstract A 77-year-old man with atrial fibrillation and a CHA2DS2Vasc score of 6 for hypertension, age, diabetes, and previous stroke is brought to the emergency department with decreased level of consciousness. He is anticoagulated with rivaroxaban (a direct oral factor Xa inhibitor [FXaI]) and received his last dose about 4 hours before presentation. Urgent computed tomography of the head shows intracerebral hemorrhage. Because of his previous stroke, the patient's family is concerned about treating the bleed with pharmacological agents that may increase the risk of stroke. What are ...
