Selective Non-nuclear Estrogen Receptor Activation Decreases Stroke Severity and Promotes Functional Recovery in Female Mice.
Abstract Estrogens provide neuroprotection in animal models of stroke, but uterotrophic effects and cancer risk limit translation. Classical estrogen receptors (ER) serve as transcription factors, whereas non-nuclear ER govern numerous cell processes and exert beneficial cardiometabolic effects without uterine or breast cancer growth in mice. Here we determined how non-nuclear ER stimulation with a pathway-preferential estrogen (PaPE-1) impacts stroke outcome in mice.Ovariectomized female mice received vehicle, estradiol (E2), or PaPE-1 before and following transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAo). MRI a...

Young obese women could reduce their stroke risk
The global campaign to tackle stroke highlights the role of caregivers in supporting people who have suffered a stroke and aims to correct misinformation about the disease, such as the misconception that stroke only happens later in life.  Risk of stroke increases 3.5 times in young women who are overweight or obese and have metabolic disorders. Women are also twice more likely to die from a stroke than breast cancer each year.  Read more  Topics: Cardiovascular Disease Prevention - Risk Assessment and Management, Peripheral Arterial Diseases, Atherosclerosis

Effectiveness and implementation of SHared decision-making supported by OUTcome information among patients with breast cancer, stroke and advanced kidney disease: SHOUT study protocol of multiple interrupted time series
Introduction Within the value-based healthcare framework, outcome data can be used to inform patients about (treatment) options, and empower them to make shared decisions with their health care professional. To facilitate shared decision-making (SDM) supported by outcome data, a multicomponent intervention has been designed, including patient decision aids on the organisation of post-treatment surveillance (breast cancer); discharge location (stroke) and treatment modality (advanced kidney disease), and training on SDM for health care professionals. The SHared decision-making supported by OUTcome information (SHOUT) study ...

Postmenopausal Hormone Therapy and the Risks of Coronary Heart Disease, Breast Cancer, and Stroke
Semin Reprod Med 2014; 32: 419-425DOI: 10.1055/s-0034-1384624The principal findings are briefly reviewed from the Women's Health Initiative trials of the most commonly used postmenopausal hormone regimens in the United States—conjugated equine estrogens and these same estrogens plus medroxyprogesterone acetate. A more detailed review is presented for three major clinical outcomes: coronary heart disease (CHD), the primary trial outcome for which a major benefit was hypothesized; invasive breast cancer, the primary safety outcome for which some adverse effect was expected; and stroke which surfaced as an important adverse...

Associations between hematopoietic growth factors and risks of venous thromboembolism, stroke, ischemic heart disease and myelodysplastic syndrome: findings from a large population-based cohort of women with breast cancer
Conclusions Receipts of CSFs and ESAs were significantly associated with an increased risk of VTE in women with breast cancer. Use of ESAs was significantly associated with substantially increased risks of MDS. These findings support those of previous studies.
