Electrocardiogram alterations in non-traumatic brain injury: a systematic review
AbstractThe presence of abnormal electrocardiograms in individuals without known organic heart disease is one of the most common manifestations of cardiac dysfunction occurring during acute non traumatic brain injury. The primary goal of the present review is to provide an overview of the available data and literature regarding the presence of new-onset electrocardiographic (ECG) alterations in acute non traumatic brain injury. The secondary aim is to identify the incidence of ECG alterations and consider the prognostic significance of new-onset ECG changes in this setting. To do so, English language articles from January ...

ISCHEMIC STROKE AND MAJOR BLEEDING WHILE ON DIRECT ORAL ANTICOAGULANTS IN NA ÏVE PATIENTS WITH ATRIAL FIBRILLATION: IMPACT OF RESUMPTION OR DISCONTINUATION OF ANTICOAGULANT TREATMENT. A population-based study.
We assessed the cumulative incidence of recurrent stroke, major bleeding and all-cause mortality associated with restarting antithrombotic treatment, in patients experiencing an anticoagulation-related event (stroke or major bleeding), occurred during anticoagulation therapy for AF.Methods and Results.We performed a retrospective population-based analysis on linked claims data of patients resident in the Veneto Region, treated with DOACs for AF and discharged (2013 −2020) from the hospital for stroke, intracranial haemorrhage (ICH), and major bleeding.

Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio at admission is a risk factor for in-hospital gastrointestinal bleeding in acute ischemic stroke patients after dual antiplatelet therapy: A case control study
Gastrointestinal bleeding is a clinically important complication in acute ischemic stroke patients after dual antiplatelet therapy. The present study was to explore the association between neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and in-hospital gastrointestinal bleeding in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients who had received dual antiplatelet therapy.

P005/44 Using the pEGASUS-stent with antithrombogenic properties and single antiplatelet therapy in a case of thrombectomy
IntroductionRescue stenting is used more and more in stroke cases with large-vessel-occlusion or medium-vessel-occlusion refractory to mechanical thrombectomy. The pEGASUS-stent(Phenox) represents a device which is equipped with a hydrophilic polymer coating(HPC) with antithrombogenic properties. The coating allows for implantation under single antiplatelet therapy, thus possibly reducing the risk of bleeding in acute stroke cases.Case HistoryA 79-year-old woman was rushed to emergency room due to left-sided hemiparesis and National-Institutes-of-Health-Stroke-Scale(NIHSS) of 14. Computed-tomography-image showed an occlusi...

Investigation of Factors That Affect the Quality of Life After a Stroke
Adv Exp Med Biol. 2023;1425:437-442. doi: 10.1007/978-3-031-31986-0_42.ABSTRACTStroke, as a disease, describes a group of disorders characterized by the presence of central nervous system symptoms either as a result of ischemia (ischemic stroke) or bleeding (hemorrhagic stroke). The appearance of a stroke results in a permanent physical or cognitive disability. The stroke incidence is the third cause of death after heart disease and cancer, and is the main cause of long-term disability.The effects of a stroke on a patient's daily life, and hence on his quality of life, are intense and long-lasting. These include memory pro...

Will unpredictable side effects dim the promise of new Alzheimer ’s drugs?
A sea change is underway in the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease, where for the first time a drug that targets the disease’s pathology and clearly slows cognitive decline has hit the U.S. market. A related therapy will likely be approved in the coming months. As many neurologists, patients, and brain scientists celebrate, they’re also nervously eyeing complications from treatment: brain swelling and bleeding, which in clinical trials affected up to about one-third of patients and ranged from asymptomatic to fatal.
The side effect—amyloid-related imaging abnormalities, or ARIA—remains mysterious. “We don’...

Acute coronary syndrome in very elderly patients —a real-world experience
AbstractVery elderly population constitutes an increasingly larger proportion of patients admitted for acute coronary syndromes (ACS). Notably, age represents both a proxy of frailty and an exclusion criterion in clinical randomized trials, which probably contributes to lack of data and undertreatment of real-world elderly patients. The aim of the study is to describe patterns of treatment and outcome of very elderly patients with ACS. All consecutive patients aged ≥ 80 years old (yo) admitted between January 2017 and December 2019 with ACS were included. The primary endpoint was in-hospital occurrence of major adv...

Percutaneous Left Atrial Appendage Closure Among Patients With Diabetes (Insights from a National Database)
Atrial fibrillation is a major risk factor for stroke. Left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) has emerged as an alternative to anticoagulation for patients with high risk of bleeding. Diabetes mellitus (DM) is associated with adverse events after cardiac procedures. We sought to compare procedural and hospital outcomes in patients who underwent LAAC with and without DM. The Nationwide Inpatient Database was queried for patients with atrial fibrillation who underwent LAAC between January 1, 2016, and December 31, 2019.

Outcomes Following Bleeding on Direct Oral Anticoagulants in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation at Liverpool Hospital
Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) are vital in atrial fibrillation (AF) stroke prevention. On-treatment bleeding has significant morbidity and mortality. Dabigatran is reversible with an available specific agent; however, the Factor-Xa-Inhibitor (FxaI) reversal-agent has limited availability.

Direct oral anticoagulants: patient reported adherence and minor bleedings
AbstractData regarding adherence and minor bleeding on direct oral anticoagulants in everyday life are still sparse. Inclusion criteria: treatment initiated with dabigatran, rivaroxaban or apixaban in non-valvular atrial fibrillation patients from a center in northern Sweden between 2011 and 2019 (n = 668). Exclusion criteria: cognitive impairment, dose dispensing, need of interpreter or hospital admission (n = 67). By a telephone interview adherence was measured in 569 patients (response rate 94.8%) using the 8-item Morisky medication adherence scale and minor bleeding was asked for. CHA2DS2-VASc and HAS-BLED sco...

P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy versus dual antiplatelet therapy in patients with acute coronary syndromes undergoing coronary stenting: rationale and design of the NEOMINDSET Trial
EuroIntervention. 2023 Jun 12:EIJ-D-23-00125. doi: 10.4244/EIJ-D-23-00125. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) is currently the standard of care after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Recent studies suggest that reducing DAPT to 1-3 months followed by an aspirin-free single antiplatelet therapy (SAPT) strategy with a potent P2Y12 inhibitor is safe and associated with less bleeding. However, to date, no randomised trial has tested the impact of initiating SAPT immediately after PCI, particularly in patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS). NEOMINDSET is a multicentre, randomised, open...
