Modern Analysis of Stroke After Carotid Stenting in Octogenarians Using the Virginia Vascular Study Group Vascular Quality Initiative Data
Carotid artery stenting (CAS) is a safe and effective alternative to carotid endarterectomy in appropriate patients. However, there remains debate over the safety of stenting in octogenarians. This is due to previous studies demonstrating higher stroke risk in this population. Since those studies were published, transcarotid artery revascularization (TCAR) has become available, allowing surgeons to stent without crossing the aortic arch. Using a modern database, we sought to evaluate whether CAS is associated with increased odds of stroke in octogenarians compared to younger patients and to determine whether there is a dif...

The Effect of Proximal Landing Zone on Stroke and Mortality in Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair
Stroke limits the widespread adoption of thoracic endovascular repair (TEVAR) in the aortic arch. More proximal stent deployment can increase the opportunity for stroke due to disruption of cerebral circulation and embolization. We performed a systematic meta-analysis on the impact of proximal landing zone (PLZ) location on stroke and 30-day mortality following TEVAR.

Extensive myocardial infarction complicated with stroke as the first presentation of HIV in A young sudanese male: A case report
CONCLUSION: The presentation of an acute coronary syndrome in a young patient should raise suspicion of uncommon causes and needs a prompt evaluation from digging up in history, detailed examination, and investigations with close follow-up to prevent the complications that may occur. on the other hand, known HIV Patients should be screened periodically with an electrocardiogram.PMID:36268312 | PMC:PMC9577595 | DOI:10.1016/j.amsu.2022.104653

Impact of presenting Stroke Severity and Thrombolysis on Outcomes After Urgent Carotid Interventions
Carotid interventions are increasingly performed in select patients after acute stroke. We aimed to determine the effects of presenting stroke severity (National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale [NIHSS]) and use of systemic thrombolysis (tPA) on clinical and discharge neurologic outcomes (modified Rankin scale [mRS] score) after urgent carotid endarterectomy (uCEA) and urgent carotid artery stenting (uCAS).

Effect of Postoperative Stroke Timing on Perioperative Mortality after Carotid Revascularization
In-hospital stroke (IHS) has been associated with worse outcomes than out-of-hospital stroke (OHS) due to delays in diagnosis and treatment. A paucity of studies exist comparing the timing of postoperative stroke after carotid revascularization. We aimed to study the effect of IHS vs. OHS on postoperative mortality in carotid revascularization patients in a large-scale national database.

Does bariatric surgery change the risk of acute ischemic stroke in patients with a history of transient ischemic attack? A nationwide analysis
CONCLUSIONS: After analyzing nationwide information, we conclude bariatric surgery helps decrease risk of AIS in patients with a history of TIA. However, this comparison is limited by the nature of the database; further studies are needed to better understand these results.PMID:36581552 | DOI:10.1016/j.soard.2022.11.013

Endovascular Treatment of Acute Ischemic Stroke —The Results of the METRICS Study (Mechanical Thrombectomy Quality Indicators Study in Czech Stroke Centers)
Rigorous and regular evaluation of defined quality indicators is crucial for further improvement of both technical and clinical results after mechanical thrombectomy (MT) for acute ischemic stroke. With the recent international multi-society consensus quality indicators, we aimed to assess whether centers in the Czech Republic performing endovascular treatment of acute ischemic stroke have met these recommendations.

Stroke-related risk factors during pregnancy in women who had metabolic and bariatric surgery compared to women without metabolic and bariatric surgery.
Stroke during pregnancy is rare, occurring in 30 of 100,000 pregnancies, and accounting for 7% of maternal deaths in the United States from 2016 to 2018. Metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) have been shown to reduce symptoms of chronic conditions that are risk factors for stroke, including hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, and diabetes in women. However, little is known about the impact of MBS on stroke risk during pregnancy.

Astragaloside IV alleviates stroke-triggered early brain injury by modulating neuroinflammation and ferroptosis via the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway
CONCLUSIONS: Hence, the findings of this research illustrate that AS-IV administration can improve delayed ischemic neurological deficits and decrease neuronal death by modulating nuroinflammation and ferroptosis via the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway.PMID:36995819 | PMC:PMC10041803 | DOI:10.1590/acb380723
