An Asian Perspective on Gender Differences in In-Hospital and Long-Term Outcome of Cardiac Mortality and Ischemic Stroke after Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention for ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction
Sex and gender-specific differences in cardiovascular disease and outcomes have been a subject of ongoing debate, as differences in clinical course, management and clinical outcomes in ischemic heart disease have been established.1 –3 While in-hospital and longer-term mortality seemed to be decreasing, it has appeared to be a less dramatic improvement in women compared to men.4-7

Does Prior Stroke Predict Long-Term Recurrent Stroke After Percutaneous Coronary Intervention? Five-Year Results From a Large Cohort Study
Conclusions: Coronary heart disease patients with prior stroke who received PCI had a higher incidence of 5-year long-term adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events, especially recurrent stroke. Prior stroke was a strong risk predictor of future stroke events.

Intracranial Large Artery Disease is Independently Associated with Poor Functional Outcome in a Cohort of Ethnic South Asian Ischemic Stroke Patients
Conclusions: The presence of ICLAD rendered poorer functional prognosis after stroke. These findings support the specific evaluation of the benefits of known acute stroke treatments such as thrombolysis, as well as investigation of potential novel strategies such as acute stenting.

Characteristics and Outcomes of Intravenous Thrombolysis in Mild Ischemic Stroke Patients
Conclusion: In mild ischemic stroke patients with IVT, an elevated baseline SBP and coronary heart disease were associated with END. The elevated baseline SBP, baseline NIHSS, a history of prior hyperlipemia, cardioembolic stroke, and END at 24 h after IVT were useful in predicting an unfavorable outcome at 3 months.

Risk for ischemic stroke and coronary heart disease associated with migraine and migraine medication among older adults
ConclusionsOlder adults with migraine are at increased risk for ischemic stroke. The risk for ischemic stroke among older adults with migraine may differ by migraine medication classes.

Women and Stroke: Different, yet Similar
Conclusion: Our data, from a single comprehensive stroke unit from South India, suggest that stroke in women are different, yet similar in many ways to men. Guideline-based treatment can result in comparable short-term outcomes, irrespective of admission stroke severity.Cerebrovasc Dis Extra 2021;11:106 –111

Application of Machine Learning Techniques to Identify Data Reliability and Factors Affecting Outcome After Stroke Using Electronic Administrative Records
Conclusion: Electronic administrative records from this cohort produced reliable outcome prediction and identified clinically appropriate factors negatively impacting most outcome variables following hospital admission with stroke. This presents a means of future identification of modifiable factors associated with patient discharge destination. This may potentially aid in patient selection for certain interventions and aid in better patient and clinician education regarding expected discharge outcomes.

Associations Between Polyvascular Disease and Stroke Recurrence in Patients With Lacunar Stroke
Conclusion: Polyvascular disease is not associated with recurrence of stroke and MACEs in patients with recent lacunar stroke at 1 year.

A pilot study of the ticagrelor role in ischemic stroke secondary prevention
Conclusion: Ticagrelor was noninferior to aspirin regarding safety profile. Compared with aspirin, ticagrelor had a better clinical outcome based on NIHSS and mRS in first-ever acute ischemic stroke patients who received it within 9 h from symptom onset, leading to a shorter hospital stay.Eur Neurol

Predicting 10-year stroke mortality: development and validation of a nomogram
AbstractPredicting long-term stroke mortality is a clinically important and unmet need. We aimed to develop and internally validate a 10-year ischaemic stroke mortality prediction score. In this UK cohort study, 10,366 patients with first-ever ischaemic stroke between January 2003 and December 2016 were followed up for a median (interquartile range) of 5.47 (2.96 –9.15) years. A Cox proportional-hazards model was used to predict 10-year post-admission mortality. The predictors associated with 10-year mortality included age, sex, Oxfordshire Community Stroke Project classification, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eG...

The Impact of Vascular Risk Factors on Post-stroke Cognitive Impairment: The Nor-COAST Study
Discussion: Our findings indicate that a focal stroke lesion might be related to pathophysiological processes leading to global cognitive impairment. The poorer prognosis of PSCI in patients with vascular risk factors emphasizes the need for further research on complex vascular risk factor interventions to prevent PSCI.

Comorbidities of primary headache disorders: a literature review with meta-analysis
ConclusionsSome of the most relevant comorbidities of primary headache disorders – back pain, anxiety and depression, diabetes, ischemic heart disease and stroke – are among the most burdensome conditions, together with headache themselves, according to the GBD study. A joint treatment of headaches and of these comorbidities may positively impact on headache sufferers’ hea lth status and contribute to reduce the impact of a group of highly burdensome diseases.
