Benzodiazepines, related drugs increase stroke risk among persons with Alzheimer ' s disease
The use of benzodiazepines and benzodiazepine-like drugs was associated with a 20 per cent increased risk of stroke among persons with Alzheimer ’s disease, shows a recent study. Benzodiazepines were associated with a similar risk of stroke as benzodiazepine-like drugs.

PCSK9 Variants, LDL-Cholesterol, and Neurocognitive Impairment: The REasons for Geographic and Racial Differences in Stroke (REGARDS) Study.
Conclusions -These results suggest life-long exposure to low PCSK9 levels and cumulative exposure to lower LDL-C are not associated with neurocognitive effects in African Americans. PMID: 29146683 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Different Associations of Plasma Biomarkers in Alzheimer's Disease, Mild Cognitive Impairment, Vascular Dementia, and Ischemic Stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: This is the first report of differences in the expression levels of plasma biomarkers and peripheral arterial tonometry among AD, MCI, VaD, and IS patients and normal controls. These different associations indicate that diverse pathological mechanisms underlie these diseases. PMID: 29629537 [PubMed]

Blood –brain barrier transcytosis genes, risk of dementia and stroke: a prospective cohort study of 74,754 individuals
AbstractTo test whether genetic variants inPICALM,BIN1,CD2AP, andRIN3—suggested to be involved in blood–brain barrier amyloid-β transcytosis pathways—associate with Alzheimer’s disease, all dementia, suggested vascular dementia, and stroke, and whether such associations are independent of the strong ε4APOE risk allele. In a prospective cohort study of 74,754 individuals from the general population we genotypedPICALM (rs10792832),BIN1 (rs6733839),CD2AP (rs10948363), andRIN3 (rs10498633), and generated a weighted and a simple allele score. Multifactorially adjusted hazard ratios for the fourth quartile versus the f...

Shared genes between Alzheimer's disease and ischemic stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: The observation that AD and IS had shared disease-associated genes offered mechanistic insights into their common pathogenesis, predominantly involving the immune system. More importantly, our findings have important implications for future research directions, which are encouraged to verify the involvement of these candidates in AD and IS and interpret the exact molecular mechanisms of action.

Strictly Lobar Cerebral Microbleeds Are Associated with Increased White Matter Volume
AbstractCerebral small vessel diseases (CSVD), such as white matter hyperintensities (WMH), have been acknowledged as a cause of brain atrophy. However, the relationship between brain volumes and cerebral microbleeds (CMBs) has not yet been determined. We aimed to evaluate whether the presence and topography of CMBs are associated with altered volumes of gray matter (GMV) and white matter (WMV). Non-stroke and non-demented subjects were prospectively recruited from the I-Lan Longitudinal Aging Study. High-resolution 3-T MRI was performed to quantify total and regional WMV and GMV, including Alzheimer ’s disease-susceptib...

The Application of Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography in Cerebral Small Vessel Disease, Ischemic Stroke, and Dementia: A Systematic Review
Conclusions: Changes in retinal microvasculature identified using OCTA are associated with monogenic SVD and different stages of AD, but data are limited and partly confounded by methodological differences. Larger studies with risk factors adjustment and more consistent OCTA methods are needed to fully exploit this technology.PROSPERO registration number: CRD42020166929.

Vascular contributions to cognitive impairment and dementia (VCID): A report from the 2018 National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute and National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke Workshop.
This report summarizes the discussion and recommendations from a working group convened by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute and the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke to evaluate the state of the field in VCID research, identify research priorities, and foster collaborations. As discussed in this report, advances in understanding the biological mechanisms of VCID across the wide spectrum of pathologies, chronic systemic comorbidities, and other risk factors may lead to potential prevention and new treatment strategies to decrease the burden of dementia. Better understanding of the social d...

Reminiscence therapy serves as an optional nursing care strategy in attenuating cognitive impairment, anxiety, and depression in acute ischemic stroke patients
ConclusionReminiscence therapy cripples cognitive impairment, anxiety, and depression, but does not affect RFS in AIS patients, indicating its potential for post-stroke management.

Direct AT2R Stimulation Slows Post-stroke Cognitive Decline in the 5XFAD Alzheimer ’s Disease Mice
AbstractAlzheimer ’s disease (AD), currently the single leading cause of death still on the rise, almost always coexists alongside vascular cognitive impairment (VCI). In fact, the ischemic disease affects up to 90% of AD patients, with strokes and major infarctions representing over a third of vascular lesions. St udies also confirmed that amyloid plaques, typical of AD, are much more likely to cause dementia if strokes or cerebrovascular damage also exist, leading to the term “mixed pathology” cognitive impairment. Although its incidence is expected to grow, there are no satisfactory treatments. There is hence an u...
