Familial aggregation of stroke amongst young patients in Lund Stroke Register
ConclusionAggregation of stroke in families of early‐onset stroke patients is not uncommon. Genetic factors with impact on stroke risk, including monogenic causes, need to be evaluated in future stroke studies.

Association of ischaemic stroke subtype with long‐term cardiovascular events
ConclusionsLarge‐artery atherosclerotic stroke and cardioembolic stroke are associated with the highest risk for future cardiovascular events, with the latter carrying at least as high a risk as LAA stroke.

Social deprivation and stroke severity on admission: a French cohort study in Burgundy and the West Indies – Guyana region
ConclusionsSocial deprivation was associated with a more severe clinical presentation in patients with stroke. These findings may contribute to the worse outcome after stroke in deprived patients, and underline the need for strategies to reduce social inequalities for stroke.

Liver function may play an uneven role in haemorrhagic transformation for stroke subtypes after acute ischaemic stroke
ConclusionsLiver function played an uneven role in HT for different stroke subtypes. Indicators of liver function independently associated with HT were AST for cardioembolic stroke, BILI for stroke of undetermined aetiology and none for stroke of large‐artery atherosclerosis and small‐artery occlusion.

Pre ‐stroke physical activity is associated with fewer post‐stroke complications, lower mortality, and a better long‐term outcome
ConclusionDedicated leisure time physical activity for at least 30 min/d, at least 3 times per week for more than 6 months was associated with decreased stroke severity, fewer post‐stroke complications, lower mortality, and better outcomes.This article is protected by copyright.

Stroke care organization overcomes the deleterious ‘weekend effect’ on 1‐month stroke mortality: a population‐based study
ConclusionThe deleterious effect of weekends/bank holidays on early stroke mortality disappeared after the organization of a dedicated stroke care network in our community. Our findings provide strong support for the implementation of quality improvement initiatives in order to attenuate inequalities in the management of stroke patients.

Heritability of young‐ and old‐onset ischaemic stroke
ConclusionsOur data suggest that the genetic contribution to the risk of stroke may be higher in young‐onset ischaemic stroke, although the difference was not statistically significant.

Relationship of functional disability after a recent stroke with recurrent stroke risk
ConclusionCompared with no/slight disability, moderate disability after a recent stroke is linked to a higher risk of recurrent stroke.

Increased risk of ischaemic stroke amongst patients with chronic osteomyelitis: a population‐based cohort study in Taiwan
ConclusionsThis is the first report linking COM to an increased risk of developing stroke. Results suggest that COM is a significant stroke risk factor and call for closer attention to this group of patients for more rigorous stroke prevention, especially in the younger age group.

Tissue‐factor‐bearing microparticles (MPs‐TF) in patients with acute ischaemic stroke: the influence of stroke treatment on MPs‐TF generation
ConclusionOur findings suggest that patients with acute ischaemic stroke have increased generation of MPs‐TF. Nevertheless, further studies are needed in order to confirm such inference.

Low density lipoprotein receptor related protein 1 and 6 gene variants and ischaemic stroke risk
ConclusionsThe results of our preliminary study provide evidence that LRP6 and LRP1 variants may be associated with risk of ischaemic stroke. Validation in larger studies is warranted.

Young adult ischaemic stroke related acute symptomatic and late seizures: risk factors
ConclusionsIn young ischaemic stroke patients, the magnitude of seizure risk and the major risk factors were similar to older ischaemic stroke patients but risk factors for ASSs and LPSs differed.

White blood cell count is an independent predictor of outcomes after acute ischaemic stroke
ConclusionsIn patients with acute ischaemic stroke, higher WBC on admission is an independent predictor of stroke severity on admission, greater degree of disability at discharge and 30‐day mortality. These results reinforce the need for further studies focused on immunomodulation therapy targeting inflammatory response following acute ischaemic stroke.

Features of cardioembolic stroke with persistent and paroxysmal atrial fibrillation – a study with the Japan Stroke Registry
ConclusionsAmongst cardioembolic stroke patients with NVAF, those with PeAF have significantly higher stroke severity on admission than those with PAF, and PeAF is a factor contributing to in‐hospital mortality. Thus, our study suggests that the type of atrial fibrillation affects stroke severity and clinical outcomes following cerebral infarction.
