Systemic Sclerosis Patients May Benefit from Targeted Stroke Screening
Patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc) may benefit from targeted stroke screening or prevention therapies. A recent study revealed SSc may be independently associated with stroke, finding the risk of stroke was 20–30% higher in SSc patients than healthy controls...

Imaging pattern and outcome of stroke in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus: a case-control study.
CONCLUSION: Stroke in SLE patients is associated with a poorer outcome than matched controls in terms of functional recovery, recurrence and mortality.

The risk of ischemic stroke in patients with idiopathic inflammatory myopathies: a systematic review and meta-analysis
ConclusionIIMs, especially patients with DM, are associated with an increased risk of ischemic stroke. Appropriate intervention may be taken into account for patients with IIM, especially when accompanied by other traditional risk factors of ischemic stroke.Key Points•This study evaluated the risk of ischemic stroke in patients with IIMs.•Generally, IIMs are associated with an increased risk of ischemic stroke.•Patients with DM had a 49% excess risk of ischemic stroke than controls.•Subgroup analysis showed that Asian patients with IIMs were at increased risk of ischemic stroke, but not Americans.

Association Between Ischemic Stroke and Tumor Necrosis Factor Inhibitor Therapy in Patients With Rheumatoid Arthritis
ConclusionExposure to TNFi does not appear to influence the occurrence of ischemic stroke in the medium term in patients with RA. The impact on mortality after ischemic stroke remains inconclusive.

Giant Cell Arteritis-related Stroke: A Retrospective Multicenter Case-control Study.
CONCLUSION: Stroke, especially in the vertebrobasilar territory, is more likely to occur in patients with GCA who experience recent ophthalmic ischemic symptoms and who exhibit low inflammatory variables.

Gout as a risk factor for myocardial infarction and stroke in England: evidence from record linkage studies
Conclusion. Gout was associated with increased risk of stroke as well as MI. These findings should be considered by clinicians and may have implications for preventive management of circulatory disease risks in people with gout.

Artificial intelligence-based preventive, personalized and precision medicine for cardiovascular disease/stroke risk assessment in rheumatoid arthritis patients: a narrative review
AbstractThe challenges associated with diagnosing and treating cardiovascular disease (CVD)/Stroke in Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) arise from the delayed onset of symptoms. Existing clinical risk scores are inadequate in predicting cardiac events, and conventional risk factors alone do not accurately classify many individuals at risk. Several CVD biomarkers consider the multiple pathways involved in the development of atherosclerosis, which is the primary cause of CVD/Stroke in RA. To enhance the accuracy of CVD/Stroke risk assessment in the RA framework, a proposed approach involves combining genomic-based biomarkers (GBBM) ...

Clinical and vascular features of Takayasu arteritis at the time of ischemic stroke.
Conclusions: Our results showed a high prevalence of stroke in TA and revealed most of these events occurred concomitantly with diagnosed TA. Moreover, although four patients had strokes after diagnosis of TA, these occurred at a young age, demonstrating they were most likely the result of vascular changes secondary to TA.

CHA2DS2-VASc score for prediction of ischemic stroke in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus without atrial fibrillation.
Conclusions We found that a CHA2DS2-VASc score greater than or equal to 2 in SLE patients without AF is associated with a significantly higher rate of ischemic stroke.

Increased risk of ischemic stroke in systemic sclerosis: a national cohort study of US veterans.
CONCLUSION: SSc is independently associated with a higher risk of ischemic stroke among U.S. veterans. Patients with SSc represent a population likely to benefit from targeted stroke screening or prevention therapies.

Factors relating to impaired stroke volume during the 6-minute walk test in patients with systemic sclerosis.
CONCLUSIONS: Impaired stroke volume in patients with systemic sclerosis was observed at rest and during exercise, and the factors relating to the cardiac response seemed to be pulmonary function and the extent of pulmonary hypertension.

Risk of myocardial infarction and ischaemic stroke in adults with polymyositis and dermatomyositis: a general population-based study
Conclusion. Our study demonstrates that PM and DM are both associated with an increased risk of MI but not ischaemic stroke. Our findings support increased vigilance in cardiovascular prevention, surveillance and risk modification in adults with PM and DM.

Risk of Myocardial Infarction and Stroke in Patients with Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis: A Population‐Based Study
Conclusion: GPA patients have a significantly increased risk of MI, with a non‐statistically significant trend towards increased risk of ischemic stroke. Monitoring for this complication and vigilance in modifying risk factors is particularly warranted in this patient population, especially early after diagnosis.
