Oral Anticoagulants in Japanese Patients with Atrial Fibrillation and Active Cancer.
Conclusion The rates of stroke or systemic embolism and major bleeding events were not negligible among Japanese cancer patients with AF receiving OACs. Further investigations on the optimal management of Japanese patients with AF and cancer are needed.

Long-term Clinical Outcomes of Elective Carotid Artery Stenting in Patients Undergoing Maintenance Hemodialysis.
Conclusion CAS in maintenance hemodialysis patients may be feasible and effective for the prevention of stroke with proper case selection, appropriate technique and strict perioperative management. The most common causes of death during the follow-up of maintenance hemodialysis patients were diseases other than stroke.

The Infarct Shape Predicts Progressive Motor Deficits in Patients with Acute Lacunae-sized Infarctions in the Perforating Arterial Territory.
Conclusion Satellite lesions are one of the features of lacunae-sized infarctions patterns, which might be an independent predictor in DWI findings for PMD in patients with lacunae-sized infarctions in the perforating arterial territory.

Macrovascular Complications and Prevalence of Urgency Incontinence in Japanese Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: The Dogo Study.
Conclusion In Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, stroke, but not ischemic heart diseases or peripheral artery disease, was independently positively associated with urgency incontinence.

Characteristics of Neurological Symptoms in Adult Japanese Patients with Fabry Disease.
Conclusion Patients with FD present with various neurological symptoms. Headache, particularly migraine, might be a major neurological symptom in patients with FD. Since migraine, ischemic stroke, and coronary spastic angina might occur together in FD, caution is needed when administering triptan to FD patients with migraine.

Thrombolysis-related Multiple Lobar Hemorrhaging in Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy with Extensive Strictly Lobar Cerebral Microbleeding.
Authors: Eriguchi M, Yakushiji Y, Tanaka J, Nishihara M, Hara H
Abstract
A hemi-paralyzed 86-year-old man was diagnosed with ischemic stroke and underwent thrombolysis. Pre-thrombolysis brain magnetic resonance imaging revealed extensive strictly lobar cerebral microbleeding (CMB). Post-thrombolytic computed tomography revealed asymptomatic multiple intracerebral hemorrhaging (ICH). His age, CMB topography, and decreased cerebral spinal fluid amyloid-β 40 and 42 levels were compatible with a diagnosis of cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA). There is no consensus on the safety of thrombolysis for acute stroke patient...

Management of Dysphagia in Patients with Parkinson's Disease and Related Disorders.
Authors: Umemoto G, Furuya H
Abstract
Various methods of rehabilitation for dysphagia have been suggested through the experience of treating stroke patients. Although most of these patients recover their swallowing function in a short period, dysphagia in Parkinson's disease (PD) and Parkinson-related disorder (PRD) degenerates with disease progression. Muscle rigidity and bradykinesia are recognized as causes of swallowing dysfunction, and it is difficult to easily apply the strategies for stroke to the rehabilitation of dysphagia in PD patients. Disease severity, weight loss, drooling, and dementia are important ...

Irreversible Vasculopathy Proceeds Rapidly in POEMS Syndrome.
Authors: Sakuta K, Mukai T, Suzuki K, Nishiwaki K, Yaguchi H
Abstract
A 48-year-old woman with POEMS syndrome suddenly presented with numbness of her right upper limb. Magnetic resonance imaging showed multiple acute infarctions in her left cerebrum, and magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) showed multiple intra-cranial vascular lesions, which contrasted with previously normal MRA results obtained eight months prior to the stroke. After completing successful treatment for POEMS syndrome, there were no recurrent stroke episodes. A six-month follow-up scan showed that although the vascular lesions did not progress, t...

Risk Stratification of Cardiovascular Events in Very Elderly Patients with Known or Suspected Coronary Artery Disease Who had Normal Single-photon Emission Computed Tomographic Myocardial Perfusion Imaging Findings.
Conclusion The MCV event rate was high in very elderly patients despite their normal SPECT MPI findings at baseline. Therefore, very elderly patients with multivariate risks should be carefully followed to avoid a poor prognosis.

Anticoagulant Therapy for Frail Patients with Atrial Fibrillation.
Authors: Hori H, Fukuchi T, Sugawara H
Abstract
The prevalence of atrial fibrillation (AF) increases with age, as does the proportion of patients with frailty. AF patients with frailty have a higher risk of stroke than those without frailty, and progressive frailty caused by stroke is also associated with a worse prognosis. Despite this, anticoagulant therapy tends to not be used in frail patients because of the risk of falls and bleeding complications. However, some studies have shown that anticoagulant therapy improves the prognosis in patients with frailty. An accurate assessment of the "net-clinical-benefits" i...
