Associations of MAFLD and MAFLD subtypes with the risk of the incident myocardial infarction and stroke
In conclusion, a diagnosis of MAFLD is associated with an increased risk of MI or stroke, and the assessment of MAFLD and its subtypes should be a component of the cardiovascular risk assessment.PMID:37586479 | DOI:10.1016/j.diabet.2023.101468

P138/30 The relationship between body mass index and stroke outcomes according to stroke subtype
ConclusionCE showed a favorable outcome in the overweight and obese patient groups compared to the normal weight group. SVD revealed that only the obese patient group had a favorable outcome; however, an association was not observed in the LAD patient group.Disclosure of Interestnone

A Systematic Literature Review of Risk Factors for Stroke in China
Other countries have seen a decline in stroke incidence after improved treatment and prevention of known risk factors for stroke. China is still experiencing significant increases in the incidence rate of total stroke. We systematically reviewed the evidence on the impact of 5 modifiable risk factors (hypertension, dyslipidemia, obesity, diabetes, and smoking) for the risk of stroke in the Chinese population, with the aim to develop more effective prevention and disease management programs. A literature search was conducted in MEDLINE and EMBASE for all observational studies that reported on the association between risk of...

A Decade of Racial and Ethnic Stroke Disparity: An Insight from Nhanes (P03.151)
CONCLUSIONS: The greater prevalence of stroke in AA compared to NHW is better explained by variables that reflect the diagnosis and control of important vascular risk factors. These results identify targets for interventions to reduce this disparity.Disclosure: Dr. Gutierrez has nothing to disclose.

Cardiovascular Risk Factors in Young Adults with Stroke from the AISYF Study (P2.110)
CONCLUSIONS:CRF are very frequent in young patients with stroke and requires strong preventive measures. Early recognition of FD in young patients with stroke is essential for appropriate treatment.Study Supported by:Supported by: Shire HGT.Disclosure: Dr. Mazziotti has received research support from Shire Pharmaceuticals Group.

Incidence and Predictors of Unprovoked Seizures after Stroke (S12.007)
Conclusions: The incidence of unprovoked seizures is among the highest reported in patients with first-ever stroke. The prospective design is a possible explanation. Older age, cortical lesion and higher functional disability are predictors of unprovoked seizures.Study supported by Regione Emilia-Romagna, Progetto Strategico "Stroke Care".The Epistroke Group: L.Delaj, R.D'Alessandro, S.Beretta, D.Consoli, V.Crespi, C.Gandolfo, G.Greco, A.LaNeve, M.Manfredi, P.

GLP-1R activation for the treatment of stroke: Updating and future perspectives
Abstract Stroke is the leading cause of adult disability in Westernized societies with increased incidence along ageing and it represents a major health and economical threat. Inactive lifestyle, smoking, hypertension, atherosclerosis, obesity and diabetes all dramatically increase the risk of stroke. While preventive strategies based on lifestyle changes and risk factor management can delay or decrease the likelihood of having a stroke, post stroke pharmacological strategies aimed at minimizing stroke-induced brain damage are highly needed. Unfortunately, several candidate drugs that have shown significant precl...

Association between different obesity measures and the risk of stroke in the EPIC Spanish cohort
Conclusions Data from the Spanish EPIC cohort study show a strong association of WC and WHR with the relative risk of suffering a stroke only in men, while no associations were found for BMI. It supports the suggestion of other authors of using more than one obesity index in the study of stroke risk prediction.

Assessment of Stroke Risk in Southern Arizona, the Pairing of Acculturation and Stroke Risk Factor Development
Abstract Stroke is a leading cause of mortality in the United States. Hispanics have the same incidence of stroke, but are more likely to have subsequent strokes than non-Hispanic whites. This difference in outcome may be attributable to differences in stroke risk factor awareness. Patients at a community health center in Tucson, AZ completed an anonymous survey regarding existing and perceived health issues. Patient responses were compared in terms of ethnicity and acculturation, as indicated by language preference. Patient responses (n = 301, Spanish: 150, English: 151) indicated that proportionately fewer no...

Epigenetic changes in the methylation patterns of KCNQ1 and WT1 after a weight loss intervention program in obese stroke patients.
The objective of this research was to investigate, in obese patients suffering a previous stroke, the effects of a nutritional program on anthropometric and biochemical variables, and on the methylation patterns of two stroke-related genes (KCNQ1: potassium channel, voltage gated KQT-like subfamily Q, member 1; and WT1: Wilms tumor 1). Twenty-two ischemic stroke patients were compared with a control group composed of eighteen obese subjects with similar age and body mass index ranges. Both groups followed a 20-week nutritional program based on an energy-restricted balanced diet with high adherence to the Mediterranean diet...

Blood pressure control and risk profile in poststroke survivors: a comparison with the general population
Conclusion: We found a high prevalence and poor control of major cardiovascular risk factors in patients surviving their first-ever ischemic stroke, thus showing poor implementation of guidelines for secondary prevention in clinical practice.

Stroke in young adults: Incidence rate, risk factors, treatment and prognosis
Conclusions The majority of stroke events in patients 55 years of age or younger appear to be related to a high prevalence of classical cardiovascular risk factors and possibly to psychosocial stress.
