Reduced plasma levels of RGM-A predict stroke-associated pneumonia in patients with acute ischemic stroke: A prospective clinical study
ConclusionsWe demonstrated that reduced plasma levels of RGM-A might help in the early identification of high-risk patients with SAP and predict the occurrence of SAP in patients with AIS. RGM-A might provide new clues to a potential alternative therapy for SAP.

Stroke Burden in Malaysia
Malaysia is located in the heart of South East Asia with two land masses, Peninsular Malaysia and East Malaysia which are separated by the South China Sea. Stroke or cerebrovascular disease is Malaysia ’s third leading cause of death. There were 47, 911 incident cases, 19,928 deaths, 443,995 prevalent cases, and 512,726 DALYs lost due to stroke in 2019. Successive national health and morbidity surveys from 2006 demonstrated a continuous rise in the prevalence of risk factor such as diabetes, hyp erlipidaemia and obesity. These risk factors are implicated in an increase in stroke incidence in those under 65 years of age, ...

Acupuncture alleviates spinal hyperreflexia and motor dysfunction in post-ischemic stroke rats with spastic hypertonia via KCC2-mediated spinal GABA < sub > A < /sub > activation
Exp Neurol. 2022 Mar 1:114027. doi: 10.1016/j.expneurol.2022.114027. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe majority of patients simultaneously develop motor dysfunction and spastic hypertonia after ischemic strokes, which can be associated with an increasing trend in motor impairments, seriously impeding the rehabilitation process. Evidence suggests that some deficits in the KCC2 expression in the spinal cord along with maladaptive endogenous plasticity via GABAA receptors are often involved in the pathology of spastic hypertonia after a stroke. In this respect, acupuncture has been commonly used in clinical settings for post-...
