Recurrent Stroke and Bleeding Events after Acute Cardioembolic Stroke —Analysis Using Japanese Healthcare Database from Acute-Care Institutions
To understand the reality of patients who experienced a cardioembolic stroke (CES) is important because of the high incidence of recurrent stroke and the need to account for bleeding risk in relation to the need for anticoagulation treatment. We elucidated the current real-world medical care in patients who had a CES and identified the risk factors for recurrent stroke.

Combining Human Umbilical Cord Blood Cells With Erythropoietin Enhances Angiogenesis/Neurogenesis and Behavioral Recovery After Stroke
In conclusion, our results suggest that hUCBC infusion in combination with EPO administration demonstrates therapeutic efficacy in the treatment of stroke-induced injury by promoting neurogenesis and angiogenesis. Further research that delineates the therapeutic mechanism of systemically administered hUCBC and EPO is required. Ethics Statement All experimental procedures involving animals were performed in accordance with the Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals as adopted and promulgated by the U. S. National Institutes of Health and were approved by CHA University Institutional Animal Care & Use Com...

Two-Year Outcomes of Anticoagulation for Acute Ischemic Stroke With Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation  - SAMURAI-NVAF Study.
CONCLUSIONS: Stroke/TIA patients receiving DOACs for secondary prevention were younger and had lower stroke severity and risk indices than those receiving warfarin. Estimated cumulative incidences of stroke and systemic embolism within 2 years were similar between warfarin and DOACs users, but those of death and intracranial hemorrhage were significantly lower among DOAC users.

Primary and secondary prevention of stroke and systemic embolism with rivaroxaban in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation
AbstractThe EXPAND Study examined the real-world efficacy and safety of rivaroxaban for the prevention of stroke and systemic embolism (SE) in Japanese patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF). In this sub-analysis, we compared the differences in efficacy and safety between patients with and those without history of stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA). This multicenter, prospective, non-interventional, observational, cohort study was conducted at 684 medical centers in Japan. A total of 7141 NVAF patients aged  ≥ 20 years [mean age 71.6 ± 9.4 (SD) years] who were being or planned to be treate...

Examination of the Relationship between Worse Symptom and Differences Route during Administration of Argatroban in Acute Ischemic Stroke Patients.
Abstract The treatment of acute ischemic stroke usually involves argatroban administration by continuous infusion for 2 d and by intravenous infusion twice a day for 5 d after that. However, the appropriate dose of argatroban to be administered is not clear. Therefore, no studies have been reported a comparison of intravenous and continuous argatroban infusion after day 3 for acute ischemic stroke patients. We aimed to identify the connection between differences in argatroban administration and worsening of symptoms after day 3 in ischemic stroke patients. We retrospectively evaluated the data of 107 ischemic stro...

Aortic dissection diagnosed on stroke computed tomography protocol: a case report
ConclusionsWhen acute stroke is suspected due to neurological deficits, plain head CT is the first choice for imaging diagnosis. The addition of cervical CT angiography can reliably exclude stroke due to aortic dissection. CTP can identify ischemic penumbra, which cannot be diagnosed by plain head CT or diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging. These combined stroke CT protocols helped us avoid missing an aortic dissection.

Association of CYP2C19 Polymorphisms With Clopidogrel Reactivity and Clinical Outcomes in Chronic Ischemic Stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: Despite associations betweenCYP2C19variants and on-clopidogrel platelet reactivity, there was no significant difference in rates of CVEs in the chronic stroke phase among the 3 clopidogrel-metabolizing groups ofCYP2C19variants. PMID: 31006731 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Clinical risk factors of stroke and major bleeding in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation under rivaroxaban: the EXPAND Study sub-analysis
AbstractFor Japanese patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF), the risk of stroke and major bleeding events was assessed by using the CHADS2, CHA2DS2-VASc, and HAS-BLED scores. The risk factors for embolism and major bleeding under DOAC may be different from current reports. We analyzed the data set of the EXPAND Study to determine the risk factors for events among Japanese NVAF patients in the era of direct oral anticoagulant. Using the data of EXPAND Study, the validity for predictability of the CHADS2, CHA2DS2-VASc, and HAS-BLED scores was identified using the receiver operating characteristic curve analysi...

Antithrombotic therapy for stroke prevention in patients with atrial fibrillation in Japan.
Authors: Maruhashi T, Higashi Y Abstract INTRODUCTION: Stroke remains one of the major public health problems in Japan. The number of patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) has been steadily increasing with the aging of the Japanese population. Appropriate oral antithrombotic therapy is necessary to prevent AF-related stroke and bleeding complications. AREAS COVERED: The authors summarize the Japanese guidelines for antithrombotic therapy, as well as the current status of antithrombotic therapy, and future perspectives for antithrombotic therapy for patients with AF in Japan. EXPERT OPINION: Further improve...
