Study of Transesophageal Echocardiography in Young Patients with Cryptogenic Stroke: Prevalence of Patent Foramen Ovale and Interpretation of the RoPE Score
CONCLUSION: In our study, PFO prevalence in the CS patients was higher than normal popula- tion. In patients with cryptogenic stroke, the RoPE score can help determine the probability of PFO related stroke and which patients should undergo TEE.PMID:35860882 | DOI:10.5543/tkda.2022.21306

Echocardiographic Measures of Left Atrial Function and Size and Incident Dementia
To the Editor A recent study described a significant association between left atrial function and an increased risk of subsequent dementia, independent of the presence of atrial fibrillation. These findings are similar to our 2009 study, which examined subclinical left atrial dysfunction and risk of stroke in patients with patent foramen ovale (PFO). We found that impairment of reservoir, conduit, and contractile strain and impairment of emptying, passive emptying, and active emptying fraction was present in patients with multiple ischemic events, PFO, and atrial septal aneurysm compared with healthy individuals. After PFO...

Dilemma in approach to stroke in sickle cell disease patient: A case report
Conclusion: Recommendations need to be put in place regarding screening for PFO in patients with SCD, in addition to highlighting issues of whether screening needs to be done in patients who have not developed stroke, and if PFO were to be found, what would be the best management approach and how will prognosis be affected.

Patent foramen ovale closure: A prospective UK registry linked to hospital episode statistics
ConclusionOur observational study demonstrates that PFO closure for prevention of recurrent stroke is a relatively safe procedure but in routine clinical practice is associated with a slightly higher risk of recurrent neurological events than in randomised trials. We hypothesize that our study enrolled unselected patients with higher baseline risk, who were excluded from randomised trials, but who may benefit from a similar relative reduction in risk from the intervention.

Causes of ischemic stroke in young adults versus non-young adults: A multicenter hospital-based observational study
CONCLUSIONS: Certain embolic sources and uncommon causes may be etiologically important causes of ischemic stroke in young adults. However, the contribution of conventional vascular risk factors and lifestyle-related risk factors is not negligible with advancing age, even in young adults.PMID:35830430 | DOI:10.1371/journal.pone.0268481

Prevalence of Patent Foramen Ovale in North Indian Cryptogenic Young Strokes
Conclusions: There is a high prevalence of RLS likely secondary to PFO in cryptogenic young strokes in north India. TCD with bubble contrast is an excellent bedside tool for the detection of RLS.

IJERPH, Vol. 19, Pages 7863: Suture-Mediated Patent Foramen Ovale Closure Using the NobleStitch EL: Results from a Hospital-Based HTA
Conclusion: We suggest that there is inadequate evidence to conclude the relative efficacy of NobleStitch EL as compared to APO. Nevertheless, this report shows a good safety profile and higher costs for NobleStitch EL, with no organizational or legal impact. Further studies in selected population are recommended.

A Review of the Role of Transthoracic and Transesophageal Echocardiography, Computed Tomography, and Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Cardioembolic Stroke
Med Sci Monit. 2022 Jun 22;28:e936365. doi: 10.12659/MSM.936365.ABSTRACTStroke is a major source of morbidity and mortality worldwide, accounting for the second largest cause of mortality and the third greatest cause of disability. Stroke is frequently preceded by a transient ischemic attack (TIA). The etiologies of 20-30% of ischemic strokes are unknown, and thus are termed "cryptogenic strokes". About 25% of ischemic strokes are cardioembolic. Strokes occur at a rate of around 2% per year in individuals with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), with a strong correlation between stroke risk and the degree...

Ipsilateral Carotid Plaque Presence is Inversely Associated with Patent Foramen Ovale in Cryptogenic Stroke: A Multicenter CohortStudy
Embolic stroke of undetermined source (ESUS) accounts for up to  20% of all strokes. Potential contributors to ESUS include patent foramen ovale (PFO) and non-stenotic plaque (
