Transcatheter Closure of Patent Foramen Ovale Using the Cocoon Occluder: A Multicenter Retrospective Study
CONCLUSION: The Cocoon PFO occluder is an effective and safe device that adds to our armamentarium for transcatheter closure of PFO.PMID:37127207 | DOI:10.1016/j.hjc.2023.04.011

24-hour ambulatory blood pressure and cryptogenic ischemic stroke in young adults
CONCLUSIONS: Non-dipping patterns of BP were associated with CIS in the absence of a PFO but not in the absence of hypertension. This may reflect differing pathophysiology underlying CIS in patients with versus without a PFO. Due to limitations of the study, results regarding absolute ABP levels should be interpreted with caution.Key MessagesNocturnal non-dipping patterns of blood pressure were associated with cryptogenic ischemic stroke except in participants with a patent foramen ovale and in those without hypertension by any definition, which may indicate differing pathophysiology underlying cryptogenic ischemic stroke ...

Advances in the Diagnosis and Treatment of Pediatric Arterial Ischemic Stroke
AbstractThough rare, stroke in infants and children is an important cause of mortality and chronic morbidity in the pediatric population. Neuroimaging advances and implementation of pediatric stroke care protocols have led to the ability to rapidly diagnose stroke and in many cases determine the stroke etiology. Though data on efficacy of hyperacute therapies, such as intravenous thrombolysis and mechanical thrombectomy, in pediatric stroke are limited, feasibility and safety data are mounting and support careful consideration of these treatments for childhood stroke. Recent therapeutic advances allow for targeted stroke p...

Use of the insertable Holter with remote detection in the etiological diagnosis of cryptogenic stroke: Analysis of 73 patients
CONCLUSIONS: The presence of high-density supraventricular tachycardia can be indicative for predicting silent AF. No other variables have been observed that allow us to predict detection of AF in these patients.PMID:37055252 | DOI:10.1016/j.medcli.2023.03.005

Detection of patent foramen ovale in patients with ischemic stroke on prospective ECG-gated cardiac CT compared to transthoracic echocardiography
ConclusionProspective ECG-gated cardiac CT acquired during the acute stroke imaging protocol does not appear to be a suitable screening method for PFO due to its low sensitivity. Our data suggest that if cardiac CT is used as a first-line screening method for cardioembolism, additional echocardiography remains indicated in young patients with cryptogenic stroke, in whom PFO detection would have therapeutic consequences. These results need to be confirmed in larger cohorts.

Patent Foramen Ovale-associated Stroke and COVID-19 Vaccination
Case –control studies have shown an association between patent foramen ovale (PFO) and cryptogenic stroke, which was observed particularly in patients younger than 55 years without conventional risk factors. The role of PFO closure in preventing stroke recurrence had been uncertain for many years, unt il four randomised clinical trials in 2017 and 2018 unequivocally demonstrated a benefit, with the number needed t...

Recent progress in patent foramen ovale and related neurological diseases: A narrative review
Patent foramen ovale (PFO) is a common congenital cardiac abnormality when the opening of the interatrial septum is not closed in adulthood. This abnormality affects 25% of the general population. With the development of precision medicine, an increasing number of clinical studies have reported that PFO is closely related to various neurological diseases such as stroke, migraine, obstructive sleep apnea, and decompression syndrome. It has also been suggested that PFO closure could be effective for preventing and treating these neurological diseases. Therefore, increasing attention has been given to the prevention, diagnosi...

Percutaneous atrial shunt closure and the risk of recurrent ischemic stroke: A register-based, nationwide cohort study
Patent foramen ovale may cause paradoxical emboli1. Cryptogenic ischemic cerebrovascular events (stroke or transient ischemic attack) (CVE) accounts for about 25% of ischemic strokes.2,3 Transcatheter closure of atrial shunts, including atrial septal defects (ASD) and patent foramen ovale (PFO), was introduced in 1996.4-6 Initially,randomized studies failed7-9 but more recent randomized studies have shown superiority of interventional treatment, with 68 % reduction of recurrent stroke after transcatheter closure of PFO compared with medical treatment in patients with cryptogenic CVE.
