Acceptability of Lycra arm sleeve in people with sub-acute stroke: patients ’, carers’ and clinicians’ perspectives
Previous studies found that the Lycra sleeve has potential to reduce glenohumeral subluxation in people with stroke. The primary aim of this study was to explore the acceptability of the Lycra sleeve from patients ’, carers’ and staff perceptive in the sub-acute phase of stroke.

Carnosol suppresses microglia cell inflammation and apoptosis through PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway
This study aimed to explore the effects of carnosol on the oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) treated BV2 microglia cells. MTT and EdU assays were used to detect the cell viability and proliferation. Flow cytometry was conducted to measure the apoptosis rates. Additionally, the protein expression was determined by western blot. The inflammatory factors and antioxidant indexes were detected by corresponding kits. Carnosol promoted the proliferation and inhibited the apoptosis of the OGD treated BV2 cells. What's more, the protein expressions of PCNA and Bcl-2 were up-regulated, the Bax expression was down-regulated after carn...

QTc prolongation as a possible contributor to Stroke
Some antipsychotics have been associated with increased risk for stroke (1). As demonstrated by the REGARDS Study (Reasons for Geographic and Racial Differences in Stroke), a prolonged QTc interval is associated with an increased risk of stroke (3). Antipsychotic agents, known to cause prolongation of the QTc, may increase the risk of stroke in a geriatric population.

Off-Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Reduces Cardiac Death in Patients with Peripheral Arteriopathy
Conclusions The OPCAB procedure considerably reduced the occurrence of cardiac death after coronary revascularization. This finding might suggest that the OPCAB procedure should be considered as the first option in patients with higher cardiovascular risk scores. Further research is warranted.

Cancers, Vol. 12, Pages 1285: Genome-Wide Association Meta-Analysis of Single-Nucleotide Polymorphisms and Symptomatic Venous Thromboembolism during Therapy for Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia and Lymphoma in Caucasian Children
Conclusion: This represents the largest GWAS meta-analysis conducted to date associating SNPs to VTE in children and adolescents treated on childhood ALL protocols. Validation of these findings is needed and may then lead to patient stratification for VTE preventive interventions. As VTE hemostasis involves multiple pathways, a more powerful GWAS is needed to detect combination of variants associated with VTE.

Can an Ankle Foot Orthoses with a Heel Lift Decrease Genu Recurvatum in Adults Post-Stroke?
Genu recurvatum (GR) in persons who are post-stroke can lead to excessive peak knee extension (>5 degrees) during the stance phase of gait. If untreated, GR can contribute to knee instability, weakness, osteoarthritis, and chronic pain. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of combining a heel lift with an ankle-foot orthosis (AFO) on genu recurvatum during gait in persons who are post-stroke. We hypothesized that the heel lift would result in a decrease in peak knee extension during the stance phase of gait.

Carotid artery plaque detected on ultrasound is associated with impaired cognitive state in the elderly: A population-based study in Wakiso district, Uganda
This study set out to determine the prevalence of abnormal carotid ultrasound findings and their association with cognitive function among the adults ≥60 years in Wakiso district, Uganda in 2018. A total of 210 participants were included. Carotid artery stenosis, presence of plaque, stenosis and intima-media thickness were assessed by ultrasound. Cognitive status was assessed using a Mini Mental State Exam (MMSE) test. The prevalence of plaque was 21.4%. Variables which included; presence of plaque, age, education, gender, marital status, whether participant stayed alone or with someone else, care for self, occupation ...

Feeding and swallowing impairment in children with stroke and unilateral cerebral palsy: a systematic review
AimThis systematic review targeted frequency estimates of dysphagia (feeding and swallowing problems), related health outcomes, and caregiver burden in children with stroke or unilateral cerebral palsy (CP).MethodSix electronic databases were searched from their inception to November 2017 along with a manual search of eight relevant journals. Two blinded raters assessed abstracts and full articles for eligibility. Discrepancies were resolved by consensus. Accepted articles were evaluated for quality. Data were extracted and analysed descriptively.ResultsOf 1660 abstracts, five met inclusion criteria, of which three focused...

Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio predicts heart failure readmissions and outcomes in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement
ConclusionNLR predicts all-cause mortality, MACE, and HF hospitalization 1 year after TAVR. NLR with TAVR risk score improved predictability for MACE. Further studies for prognostication using NLR are warranted.
