Supraventricular Extrasystoles on Standard 12-lead Electrocardiogram Predict New Incident Atrial Fibrillation after Embolic Stroke of Undetermined Source: The AF-ESUS Study
Background: The diagnosis of covert atrial fibrillation (AF) remains a major challenge to guide secondary prevention of patients with embolic stroke of undetermined source (ESUS). Aims: We analyzed consecutive ESUS patients from 3 prospective stroke registries to assess whether the presence of supraventricular extrasystoles (SVE) on standard 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) is associated with the detection of AF (primary outcome), stroke recurrence and death (secondary outcomes) during follow-up.

Prognosis of Early-Stage Continuous Electrocardiogram Abnormalities on Patients with Acute Ischemic Stroke
To explore the effects of onset time of electrocardiogram (ECG) abnormalities at an early stage of acute ischemic stroke on patient prognosis. Cardiac dysfunction after stroke is a challenge for clinicians. This is a retrospective study of patients in the neurology departments of 23 hospitals in Shanghai and Wuhan, China.

Detection and Predictors of Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation in Acute Ischemic Stroke and Transient Ischemic Attack Patients in Singapore
Detection of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (pAF) is important for optimal secondary stroke prevention. Data are limited from Asia regarding inpatient occurrence and predictors of pAF to optimize electrocardiographic (ECG) monitoring despite it having nearly two thirds of the world's population and different subtypes of stroke from the West.

Does the Magnitude of the Electrocardiogram QT Interval Dispersion Predict Stroke Outcome?
QT dispersion, maximal interlead difference in QT interval on 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG), measures cardiac repolarization abnormalities. Data are conflicting whether QT dispersion predicts adverse outcome in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients. Our objective is to determine if QT dispersion predicts: (1) short-term clinical outcome in AIS, and (2) stroke location (insular versus noninsular cortex).

Electrocardiographic left atrial abnormality in patients presenting with ischemic stroke
P wave indices represent electrocardiographic marker of left atrial pathology. We hypothesized that P wave would be more abnormal in patients presenting with ischemic stroke than a comparable group without ischemic stroke.

Association between electrocardiographic and echocardiographic atrial abnormalities and prognosis in cryptogenic stroke
The role of atrial fibrillation in cryptogenic stroke (CS) is well known. However, the usefulness of left atrial (LA) electrical and morphological abnormalities to identify more disabling strokes in sinus rhythm patients is less studied. We evaluated the association between electrocardiographic P-wave abnormalities and echocardiographic LA measures with neurological disability in patients with cryptogenic stroke.

Prognostic Significance of Fragmented QRS in Patients with Acute Ischemic Stroke
Stroke is a leading cause of mortality and morbidity in developed countries1 and has a strong relationship with cardiovascular system disorders.2 Due to this relationship, the connection between brain and heart has become increasingly important and neurocardiology has emerged as a popular concept over the recent years.3 Electrocardiographic abnormalities and various cardiac arrhythmias occurring especially after stroke support this phenomenon.4 ST segment and/or T-wave abnormalities without myocardial ischemia,5 left axis deviation, QT prolongation,6 QT dispersion,7 atrial fibrillation (AF), sinus tachycardia, ventricular ...

Diagnosis of atrial fibrillation in young patients with ischemic stroke: A systematic review and meta-analysis
The recommended cardiac rhythm evaluation to determine the etiology of ischemic stroke (IS) is similar in all patients regardless of their age and includes an electrocardiogram and at least a 24-hour heart rhythm monitoring. However, it is known that the main causes of IS vary according to patients ’ age. There is a higher preponderance of arterial dissections and patent foramen ovale in younger patients, while atrial fibrillation (AF) is more common in older patients.

Electrocardiographic and Echocardiographic Left Ventricular Hypertrophy in the Prediction of Stroke in the Elderly
It is unclear whether left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) detected by electrocardiography (ECG-LVH) is equally predictive of heart failure as LVH detected by echocardiography (echo-LVH).

Evaluation of Misdiagnosed Cases of Subarachnoid Hemorrhage and Causal Factors for Misdiagnosis
Conclusions: Type 1 cases were mild, and diagnosis required detailed medical history analyses. Type 2 cases were severe and were diagnosed based on electrocardiographic and echocardiographic changes characteristic of SAH. Symptoms of type 3 cases included vomiting, and diagnosis required recognition of meningeal irritation syndrome and detailed medical history analyses.

A Case of Superficial Hemisensory Dysfunction due to Operculo-insular Infarction: Radiological Depiction of Thalamocortical Projections to the Secondary Somatosensory Cortex
A 64-year-old obese man developed hypesthesia in the left arm and leg. Neurological examination revealed decreased senses of pain, touch, and temperature in the left face, arm, trunk, and leg. Remaining functions were normal. Electrocardiogram showed atrial fibrillation. Somatosensory-evoked potentials using the stimulation in the median nerve were normal on both sides. Brain magnetic resonance imaging revealed acute infarction in the right parietal operculum and insula. There were no pathognomonic lesions in the postcentral gyrus, the thalamus, or the brain stem. Cardioembolic operculo-insular infarction was diagnosed. Di...

A Case of Sinus Arrest and Post-hiccup Cough Syncope in Medullary Infarction
We describe asymptomatic sinus arrest and post-hiccup cough syncope in a patient with medullary infarction. A 78-year-old woman developed arrhythmia, hiccup, and cough syncope attacks. Neurological examination was not remarkable. Cough syncope occurs after hiccup attacks. Bradycardia and decreased blood pressure were also present after the beginning cough. Holter 24-hour electrocardiography monitor exhibited 65 episodes of asymptomatic sinus arrest more than 3 seconds. Magnetic resonance imaging disclosed acute infarction in the bilateral medial regions and the right tegmentum of the upper and middle medulla oblongata. Ce...
