Barriers and facilitators to seeking medical care for young adults with acute stroke - a qualitative study (P6.262)
Conclusions:Prioritization of work and family obligations and a lack of awareness of stroke as a disease of all ages were major barriers to seeking medical care. Knowledgeable companions were facilitators of seeking medical care.Disclosure: Dr. Jones has nothing to disclose. Dr. Huggins has nothing to disclose. Dr. Thaler has received personal compensation for activities with St. Jude Medical WL and Gore Associates as a consultant. Dr. Han has nothing to disclose. Dr. Leung has nothing to disclose.

Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the depressive symptoms in stroke survivors and the risk factors for depressive symptoms in stroke survivors. We included 33,991 participants who were 19 years or ...

Family History of Stroke Among African Americans and Its Association With Risk Factors, Knowledge, Perceptions, and Exercise.
CONCLUSIONS:: Family history of stroke was common in this sample; however, it did not translate into better understanding of stroke or better exercise behaviors and intentions. More can be done to identify African Americans with a FHS, especially those with multiple risk factors, to educate them about the significance of FHS while promoting lifestyle change and self-management.

Gender-Related Differences and Short-Term Outcome of Stroke: Results from a Hospital-Based Registry in Sub-Saharan Africa
Conclusions: Sex differences exist in the clinical profile of stroke but not in the outcome. Knowledge of these differences could help influence stroke prevention, thereby improving stroke burden in Africa.Neuroepidemiology 2017;49:179 –188

The effects of the COVID-19 lockdown and socio-economic factors on stroke hospitalizations in France
ConclusionsDuring the first national lockdown, there has been an overall decrease in stroke admission rates. Socio-economic determinants such as low-skilled jobs were independently associated with an increase in the stroke admission incidence rate ratio, while we did not find any independent effect from the local COVID 19 burden and hospital capacities.Key messagesThe first national lockdown led to an overall decrease in stroke admissions in France.This decrease varied between counties according to socio-economic determinants.

Prevalence of coronary heart disease or stroke among workers aged
Abstract Cardiovascular disease accounts for one in three deaths in the United States each year, and coronary heart disease and stroke account for most of those deaths. To try to prevent 1 million heart attacks and strokes by 2017, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services launched the Million Hearts initiative, promoting proven and effective interventions in communities and clinical settings. In workplace settings, cardiovascular disease can be addressed through a Total Worker Health program, which integrates occupational safety and health protection with health promotion. To identify workers likely to ben...

Incongruence Between Perceived Long-Term Risk and Actual Risk of Stroke in Rural African Americans
ABSTRACT: Stroke has increased among young adults. In addition, the accuracy by which African Americans perceive their risk of stroke is unclear. The purpose of the study was to examine the accuracy of perceived stroke risk of African Americans aged 19–54 years. A descriptive-correlational design was used. Accuracy of perceived stroke risk was determined by comparing perceived risk with actual risk. Participants (N = 66) had a mean age of 43.3 (SD = 9.4) years and were mostly female, high school graduates, and unemployed. Most (66%) perceived themselves as having no/low risk of future stroke. However, actual risk factors...

Factors Associated with Delay in Presentation to the Hospital for Young Adults with Ischemic Stroke
Conclusions: A majority of young adults with ischemic stroke presented outside the time window for intravenous fibrinolysis. Diabetes, single status, and unemployed status were associated with delayed presentation.Cerebrovasc Dis 2016;42:10-14

Knowledge of signs and symptoms of heart attack and stroke among Singapore residents.
CONCLUSION: We found a comparable knowledge of stroke and heart attack signs and symptoms in the community to countries within the same economic, educational, and healthcare strata. However older persons, those with lower educational level and those who are unemployed/retired, require more public health education efforts. PMID: 24812623 [PubMed - indexed for MEDLINE]

Arterial Ischemic Stroke in Children and Young Adults
This article reviews risk factors, recurrence risk, evaluation, management, and outcomes of arterial ischemic stroke in children and young adults. Recent Findings: The risk for recurrence and mortality appear to be low for neonatal and childhood stroke. Most children have relatively mild deficits, but those who have greater neurologic deficits, poststroke epilepsy, or strokes early in life are at risk for lower overall cognitive function. Stroke recurrence and long-term mortality after stroke in young adults are greater than originally thought. Cognitive impairments, depression, and anxiety are associated with higher leve...

The effect of aircraft, road, and railway traffic noise on stroke - results of a case-control study based on secondary data.
Conclusion: This large case-control study indicates that traffic noise exposure may lead to an increase in stroke risk. It furthermore suggests that maximum aircraft noise levels at night increase the stroke risk even when continuous noise exposure is low, and thus highlights the relevance of maximum noise levels for research and policies on noise protection.
