Warfarin Use in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation Undergoing Hemodialysis Clinical Sciences
Conclusions—Our findings suggest that warfarin should be used carefully in hemodialysis patients, given the higher risk of hemorrhagic events and the lack of ability to prevent thromboembolic complications.

Safety and Effectiveness of Intravenous Thrombolysis for Acute Ischemic Stroke Outside the Coverage of National Health Insurance in Taiwan.
Conclusion: In stroke patients treated with intravenous thrombolysis according to the AHA/ASA guidelines, the outcomes were comparable between the reimbursement and non-reimbursement groups. PMID: 28752508 [PubMed - in process]

Intravenous Alteplase for Acute Ischemic Stroke in Taiwan: Can We Expand the National Health Insurance's Reimbursement Criteria?
In conclusion, the non-reimbursement group in Su, et al(3). is a mixture of stroke patients with very heterogeneous characteristics. With the advances of imaging selection modalities and new hyperacute treatment options nowadays, they should no longer be considered as an identical group of patients. We strokologists, as an emerging subspecialists, should devote more in dedicated and individualized selection of stroke patients for appropriate early recanalization therapy to improve their outcomes.

Effectiveness and Safety of Apixaban, Dabigatran, and Rivaroxaban Versus Warfarin in Patients With Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation and Previous Stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack Clinical Sciences
Conclusions—Results from our study of the 3 NOACs versus warfarin in nonvalvular atrial fibrillation patients with a previous history of stroke/transient ischemic attack are relatively consistent with their respective phase III trials and previous stroke/transient ischemic attack subgroup analyses. All NOACs seemed no worse than warfarin in respect to ischemic stroke, ICH, or major bleeding risk.

Combined renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system blockade and statin therapy effectively reduces the risk of cerebrovascular accident in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease: a nationwide population-based cohort study.
In conclusion, ADPKD was associated with an increased risk of CVA occurrence. Combined RAAS blockade and statin therapy effectively reduces the risk of CVA in ADPKD. PMID: 28711910 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Risk of developing pleural empyema in patients with stroke: a propensity-matched cohort study
In conclusion, patients with stroke are at an elevated risk of developing pleural empyema. The risk is greater for those with hemor rhagic stroke than for those with ischemic stroke. The risk increases further for patients who undergo VP shunt implantation.

Antipsychotic medications and stroke in schizophrenia: A case-crossover study
ConclusionsUse of second-generation antipsychotic drugs appeared to be associated with an increased risk of ischemic stroke in the patients studied, possibly mediated by high affinity for histamine-1 receptor blockade. Further research regarding the underlying biological mechanism and drug safety is suggested.

Early transition to comfort measures only in acute stroke patients: Analysis from the Get With The Guidelines-Stroke registry
Conclusions: Early CMO was utilized in about 5% of stroke patients, being more common in ICH and SAH than IS. Early CMO use varies widely between hospitals and is influenced by patient and hospital characteristics.

Impact of financial incentives for inter-provider care coordination on health-care resource utilization among elderly acute stroke patients
ConclusionsOur findings suggest that a payment system for care coordination is inappropriate since it was not associated with a reduction in overall health-care resource utilization. Further, health-care system reform is necessary to improve care continuity across multiple health-care institutions in Japan.

Diabetic microvascular complications and stroke risk in the Asian population in Taiwan: A population based case-control study (P6.290)
Conclusions:This study suggests that microvascular complications are significant stroke predictors, with a greater involvement for ischemic stroke than for hemorrhagic stroke. Multiple microvascular complications interactively increase the stroke risk. Our study contributes to the identification of high-risk subjects for stroke prevention and adequate glycemic control.Disclosure: Dr. Chen has nothing to disclose. Dr. Lo has nothing to disclose.
