Diabetes and obesity are associated with disability in community-dwelling stroke survivors: A cross-sectional study of 37,955 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System respondents
Conclusion. Stroke survivors with obesity or diabetes experience increased risk for disability compared to survivors without these chronic conditions. Interventions for managing disability, obesity, and diabetes concomitantly may be warranted and deserve further consideration.PMID:33775239 | DOI:10.1080/10749357.2021.1904537

Increased Stroke Risk in Metabolically Abnormal Normal Weight: a 10-Year Follow-up of 102,037 Participants in China
AbstractThe purpose of this study was to investigate the risks of stroke in subjects with metabolically abnormal normal weight (MANW) in China. We recruited 102,037 participants from the Zhejiang Metabolic Syndrome Cohort and the Kailuan cohort. The mean years of follow-up were 9.9  years. General obesity was defined by body mass index (BMI) ≥ 28, overweight by BMI <  28 and ≥ 24, and normal weight by BMI <  24 and ≥ 18.5. Metabolic abnormality was defined as two or more abnormal components (elevated triglycerides, low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, elevated systolic blood pressure or di...

Causes of ischemic stroke in young adults versus non-young adults: A multicenter hospital-based observational study
CONCLUSIONS: Certain embolic sources and uncommon causes may be etiologically important causes of ischemic stroke in young adults. However, the contribution of conventional vascular risk factors and lifestyle-related risk factors is not negligible with advancing age, even in young adults.PMID:35830430 | DOI:10.1371/journal.pone.0268481

Physical Activity and Risk of Cerebrovascular Disease in the European Prospective Investigation Into Cancer and Nutrition-Spain Study Original Contributions
Conclusions— Recreational PA of moderate intensity was inversely associated with stroke incidence in women, whereas PA showed no effect on CVD risk in men. Increasing time dedicated to activities such as walking would be expected to help to reduce the stroke burden in women.

Favorable Functional Recovery in Overweight Ischemic Stroke Survivors: Findings from the China National Stroke Registry
Background: Obesity paradox has been reported because of the inverse relationship between the body mass index (BMI) and mortality in stroke patients. The relationship between BMI and functional recovery in stroke survivors is less well established. We explored the impact of BMI on functional recovery and mortality in stroke patients in the China National Stroke Registry (CNSR).Methods: Patients were consecutively recruited based on a standard protocol and prospectively followed up for outcomes at 3 months after disease onset. Patients were divided into 5 groups according to their BMI: underweight (

Are there Different Rates of Acute Stroke Risk Factors in the South Texas Mexican American population? (P7.146)
CONCLUSION: In the South Texas Mexican American AIS population, there is greater then a three-fold higher prevalence of hypertension, diabetes and CHF compared with Hispanics/Latinos in the US. AFIB and CHF are significant predictors of poor outcome in this unique population.Disclosure: Dr. Tekle has nothing to disclose. Dr. Hassan has nothing to disclose. Dr. Malik has nothing to disclose.

The Obesity Paradox and Survivors of Ischemic Stroke
Although obesity is a risk factor for stroke and achieving normal weight is advocated to decrease stroke risk, the risk associated with obesity and weight loss after stroke has not been well established. The aim of this study was to assess the association of obesity at the time of stroke admission and weight loss after stroke with total mortality.

Predictors of Recurrent Ischemic Stroke in Obese Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: A Population-based Study
Each year, approximately 0.8 million people are estimated to experience a new or recurrent stroke, according to the 2019 report of the American Heart Association.1 In Malaysia, stroke is the third leading cause of death after ischemic heart disease (IHD) and pneumonia.2 Both obesity and diabetes are considered as the established independent risk factors for ischemic stroke.3 Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) was also found to be associated with an increase in all-cause as well as cardiovascular mortality following the stroke,4,5 and in a meta-analysis of 18 studies, patients with diabetes had a higher stroke recurrence as co...
