Influenza-Like Illness is Associated with Increased Short-Term Risk of Cervical Artery Dissection
Non-traumatic Cervical Artery Dissection (CeAD) is a leading cause of ischemic stroke in the young. Influenza-like illnesses (ILI) trigger ischemic strokes. We hypothesized that influenza and ILI are associated with CeAD.

GSE180470 Dysregulated lncRNA and mRNA may promote the progression of ischemic stroke via immune and inflammatory pathways: results from RNA sequencing and bioinformatics analysis
Contributors : Yingshuang Wang ; Feifei Feng ; Pingping Zheng ; Lijuan Wang ; Yanjun Wang ; Yaogai Lv ; Li Shen ; Kexin Li ; Tianyu Feng ; Yang Chen ; Zhigang Liu ; Yan YaoSeries Type : Non-coding RNA profiling by high throughput sequencingOrganism : Homo sapiensLong non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are widely involved in gene transcription regulation and which act as epigenetic modifiers. To determine whether lncRNAs are involved in ischemic stroke (IS), we analyzed the expression profile of lncRNAs and mRNAs in IS. RNA sequencing was performed on the blood of three pairs of IS patients and heathy controls. Differential expressi...

Chronic cerebral aspects of long COVID, post ‐stroke syndromes and similar states share their pathogenesis and perispinal etanercept treatment logic
This article is about how the neurological aspects of long COVID (fatigue, neurogenic pain, loss of ability to taste or smell), can be best understood, and treated. For this purpose, the literature on TNF and brain function, both physiological and disease-associated, and how this is being applied to various long-term neurodegenerative conditions, is discussed. AbstractThe chronic neurological aspects of traumatic brain injury, post-stroke syndromes, long COVID-19, persistent Lyme disease, and influenza encephalopathy having close pathophysiological parallels that warrant being investigated in an integrated manner. A mechan...

Orally Administered Crocin Protects Against Cerebral Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury Through the Metabolic Transformation of Crocetin by Gut Microbiota
Conclusion
Collectively, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic association studies provide evidence that the gut microbiota plays a vital role in the fate of crocin and crocetin in the gastrointestinal tract. In addition, the cross-interaction between gut microbiota and crocin might mediate the activation of the cerebral-protective effect of orally administered crocin.
Ethics Statement
This study was carried out in accordance with the recommendations of ‘Institutional Animal Research Committee guidelines, Animal Ethics Committee of China Pharmaceutical University.’ The protocol was approved by the ‘An...

Differentiating the effects of characteristics of PM pollution on mortality from ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes.
Abstract
Though increasing evidence supports significant association between particulate matter (PM) air pollution and stroke, it remains unclear what characteristics, such as particle size and chemical constituents, are responsible for this association. A time-series model with quasi-Poisson function was applied to assess the association of PM pollution with different particle sizes and chemical constituents with mortalities from ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes in Guangzhou, China, we controlled for potential confounding factors in the model, such as temporal trends, day of the week, public holidays, meteorologi...

Relative Burden of Community-Acquired Pneumonia Hospitalizations in Seniors
Conclusions Although CAP has a higher burden of hospitalization and total costs than MI, stroke, and OF in the elderly population, prevention efforts are much smaller for CAP. Prioritization of CAP prevention is needed to substantially reduce its burden.

PCSK9 monoclonal antibodies for the primary and secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease.
CONCLUSIONS: The evidence for the clinical endpoint effects of evolocumab and alirocumab were graded as high. There is a strong evidence base to prescribe PCSK9 monoclonal antibodies to people who might not be eligible for other lipid-lowering drugs, or to people who cannot meet their lipid goals on more traditional therapies, which was the main patient population of the available trials. The evidence base of PCSK9 inhibitors compared with active treatment is much weaker (low very- to low-certainty evidence) and it is unclear whether evolocumab or alirocumab might be effectively used as replacement therapies.

Influenza, influenza‐like symptoms and their association with cardiovascular risks: a systematic review and meta‐analysis of observational studies
ConclusionsThere is an association between influenza‐like illness and cardiovascular events, but the relationship is less clear with serologically diagnosed influenza. We recommend renewed efforts to apply current clinical guidelines and maximise the uptake of annual influenza immunisation among patients with cardiovascular diseases, to decrease their risks of MI and stroke.

Doctors Are Worried About the Unprecedented Drop in Emergency Room Visits During the COVID-19 Pandemic
In late May, an otherwise relatively healthy New York City woman began having trouble speaking, and she felt weak on the right side of her body. But she could still walk and take care of herself, and with the coronavirus pandemic raging, visiting a hospital seemed too dangerous. The next day, her speech had gotten worse, and she could barely move the right side of her body. Her family called 911 and she was rushed to the hospital, where doctors determined she had suffered a stroke.
By the time the woman left the hospital, she was no longer able to walk by herself, and was having difficulty speaking and understanding other...
