Quality benchmarks for chest pain units and stroke units in Germany.
CONCLUSION: As reimbursement for emergency medicine in Germany was recently rearranged, quality benchmarking has gained incremental importance. Mandatory joint quality measurement in both concepts ensuring gap analysis and process improvement is encouraged. PMID: 31970463 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Prestroke Statins Improve Prognosis of Atrial Fibrillation-Associated Stroke through Increasing Suppressor of Cytokine Signaling-3 Levels
Conclusion: Our data suggested that the prestroke use of statins improved the clinical outcomes in AIS patients with AF by upregulating the level of SOCS-3 and reducing the plasma MMP-9 level.Eur Neurol

Predictive value of left atrial function for latent paroxysmal atrial fibrillation as the cause of embolic stroke of undetermined source
CONCLUSIONS: LA strain was significantly associated with new development of AF. Patients with impaired LA function at admission should be carefully monitored to find AF.PMID:34119401 | DOI:10.1016/j.jjcc.2021.05.005

Electrocardiographic predictors of atrial fibrillation in patients with cryptogenic stroke
ConclusionAn increased p-wave duration, advanced interatrial block and high MVP score are associated with AF occurrence in patients with cryptogenic stroke. Identifying patients with these markers may be helpful as they may benefit from more exhaustive and prolonged monitoring.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved

Sympathovagal imbalance in early ischemic stroke is linked to impaired cerebral autoregulation and increased infarct volumes
CONCLUSIONS: Increased vagal modulation in early hours of acute ischemic stroke, may interfere with cerebrovascular control and is associated with larger infarcts. Understanding the mechanisms that govern this complex interplay can be useful as novel therapeutic targets to improvement of outcome.PMID:35567917 | DOI:10.1016/j.autneu.2022.102986

Relation of Electrocardiographic Abnormal P-Wave Axis With Stroke Mortality in the General Population
We examined the association of abnormal aPWA with stroke mortality in 7,359 participants (60.0 ± 13.4 years, 51.9% women, 49.8% White) without cardiovascular (CV) disease (CVD) from the Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. aPWA was defined as any value75 °.

Predicting atrial fibrillation after ischemic stroke: clinical, genetics and electrocardiogram modelling
Introduction: Detection of atrial fibrillation (AF) is challenging in patients after ischemic stroke due to its paroxysmal nature. We aim to determine the utility of a combined clinical, electrocardiographic and genetic variables model to predict AF in a post-stroke population. Materials and Methods: We performed a cohort study at a single comprehensive stroke centre from 09/11/2009 to 31/10/2017. All patients recruited were diagnosed with acute ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attacks. Electrocardiographic variables including p-wave terminal force (PWTF), corrected QT interval (QTc) and genetic variables including ...

Protocol for a Systematic Review and Individual Participant Data Meta-Analysis of Randomized Trials of Screening for Atrial Fibrillation to Prevent Stroke
Thromb Haemost. 2023 Mar;123(3):366-376. doi: 10.1055/s-0042-1760257. Epub 2023 Mar 2.ABSTRACTINTRODUCTION: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common cause of stroke. Timely diagnosis of AF and treatment with oral anticoagulation (OAC) can prevent up to two-thirds of AF-related strokes. Ambulatory electrocardiographic (ECG) monitoring can identify undiagnosed AF in at-risk individuals, but the impact of population-based ECG screening on stroke is uncertain, as ongoing and published randomized controlled trials (RCTs) have generally been underpowered for stroke.METHODS AND ANALYSIS: The AF-SCREEN Collaboration, with support from...

Electrocardiogram properties and risk of covert brain infarction and other magnetic resonance imaging abnormalities in a stroke ‐free population
ConclusionsOur study found that ECG abnormalities were related to presence of CBIs, white matter hyperintensity, and sulcal atrophy on MRI in a stroke-free relderly population. Specifically, those with left axis deviation had an increased risk of presence of CBIs.

Using Artificial Intelligence in Predicting Ischemic Stroke Events After Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
CONCLUSIONS: The RF model accurately predicts short- and long-term risk of IS and outperforms logistic regression analysis in patients undergoing PCI. Patients with periprocedural stroke may benefit from aggressive management to reduce the future risk of IS.PMID:37410747
