Characteristics and Factors for Short-Term Functional Outcome in Stroke Patients With Atrial Fibrillation, Nationwide Retrospective Cohort Study
Conclusion: Our results suggest that presence of non-relevant extracranial cerebral atherosclerosis may affect poor functional outcome and prior stroke statin therapy may be feasible in Korean stroke patients with AF.

An analysis of the risk of perioperative ischemic stroke in patients undergoing non-cardiovascular and non-neurological surgeries.
Conclusions: History of stroke and smoking, renal insufficiency, and low HDL-C are independent risk factors for PIS. It is feasible to assess the risk of stroke in preoperative patients using PCE in clinical practice. PMID: 31903867 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Prestroke statin use enhances collateralization in acute ischemic stroke patients.
CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest that prestroke statin use was associated with good leptomeningeal collaterals and clinical outcomes in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients presenting with occlusion of the middle cerebral artery. However, clinical studies should be conducted to verify this claim. PMID: 32925118 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Risk Factors of Recurrent Stroke in Young and Middle-Aged Stroke Patients after Interventional Therapy
CONCLUSION: Blood glucose, blood lipid, blood pressure, age, and living habits have an impact on recurrent stroke in young and middle-aged patients after interventional therapy. Therefore, while strictly controlling blood glucose, blood lipid, and blood pressure, patients should improve their living habits and enhance the awareness of prevention after interventional therapy.PMID:35509854 | PMC:PMC9061004 | DOI:10.1155/2022/5728991

Lipid management in ischaemic stroke or transient ischaemic attack in China: result from China National Stroke Registry III
Conclusions The LDL-C goal achievement rate has increased mildly in the stroke and TIA population in mainland China. Lowered baseline LDL-C level was significantly associated with a decreased short- and long-term risk of ischemic stroke among stroke and TIA patients. LDL-C<1.4mmol/L might be a safe standard for this population.

Primary Prevention of Stroke in Argentina: a Missed Opportunity? Data from the ARENAS Registry (P1.111)
CONCLUSIONS: this study provides data on stroke risk factors prevalence and control in an Argentine cohort. Our results show a high percentage of at-risk patients without adequate control in the primary prevention setting, denoting a missing opportunity to reduce the burden of stroke.Disclosure: Dr. Atallah has nothing to disclose.

Quality of Care and Ischemic Stroke Risk After Hospitalization for Transient Ischemic Attack: Findings From Get With The Guidelines-Stroke Original Articles
Conclusions— TIA patients with high estimated ischemic stroke risk are less likely to receive defect-free care than low-risk patients. Standardized risk assessment and delivery of optimal inpatient care are needed to reduce this risk-treatment mismatch.

Effect of Statin Intensity on the Risk of Epilepsy After Ischaemic Stroke: Real-World Evidence from Population-Based Health Claims
ConclusionThe post-stroke use of statins after ischaemic stroke was associated with PSE risk reduction in a cDDD-dependent manner. Further clinical studies on the potential applications of statins for PSE prophylaxis, particularly among at-risk patients, are warranted.

Beneficial effects of pre-stroke statins use in cardioembolic stroke patients with atrial fibrillation: a hospital-based retrospective analysis.
Conclusions: Despite the predominant use of statins in atherothrombotic stroke patients, we demonstrated the beneficial effects of statins in cardioembolic stroke patients. Detailed cardiovascular screening for statin therapy should be carried out in all AF patients with regard to primary and secondary stroke prevention. PMID: 30899291 [PubMed]

The potential role of inflammation in cryptogenic stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: Endothelial dysfunction assessed by increased level of ADMA affects the inflammatory state in patients with cryptogenic stroke. Increase in the inflammatory cytokine IL-6 by 1 pg/ml almost doubles the risk of stroke. PMID: 31260841 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Management Protocols and Encountered Complications among Stroke Patients Admitted to Stroke Unit of Jimma University Medical Center, Southwest Ethiopia: Prospective Observational study
ConclusionBoth neurologic and medical complications were common in majority of stroke patients. But the management protocol for stroke patients was sub-optimal and lagging behind the recommended guidelines due to lack of skilled personnel, appropriate treatment and diagnostic agents. The clinical team involved in the care of stroke patients should make preparations to take preventive measures that will save a lot of lives.

Impact of triglyceride playing on stroke severity correlated to bilirubin
Major lipids making effects on the occurrence of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is well recognized, but their roles on stroke severity remain uncertain. To explore the exact roles of lipids playing on stroke severity and the possible mechanism, we conduct this observational study. Data was collected from patients with AIS from February 2008 to May 2012. The level of major lipids was compared among AIS groups with different severity and investigated the correlation. Also, the relationship existed between major lipids and bilirubin. Mechanism of major lipids playing on stroke severity was researched to determine if oxidative s...
