Statin use after intracerebral hemorrhage: a 10 ‐year nationwide cohort study
ConclusionHydrophilic statin therapy is associated with a reduced risk of recurrent ICH in post‐ICH patients. The intensity of statin use had no significant effect on recurrent ICH or other components of the composite outcome. Additional studies are required to clarify the biological mechanisms underlying these observations. Statin therapy has demonstrated benefits in ischemic stroke patients, but statin use and intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) remain a concern. Hydrophilic statin therapy is associated with a reduced risk of recurrent ICH in post‐ICH patients. The intensity of statin use had no significant effect on rec...

Patient- and Hospital-Level Determinants of Rehabilitation for In-Patient Stroke Care: An Observation Analysis
Abstract: During acute stroke care, rehabilitation usage may be influenced by patient- and hospital-related factors. We would like to identify patient- and hospital-level determinants of population-level inpatient rehabilitation usage associated with acute stroke care. From data obtained from the claim information from the National Health Insurance Administration (NHIA) in Taiwan (2009–2011), we enrolled 82,886 stroke patients with intracerebral hemorrhage and cerebral infarction from 207 hospitals. A generalized linear mixed model (GLMM) analyses with patient-level factors specified as random effects were conducted (fo...

Characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine usage in patients with stroke in Taiwan: A nationwide population-based study
Conclusion Adjunctive TCM use may reduce the risk of mortality rate among stroke patients. Bu-yang-huan-wu-tang and Dan-shen are the most common prescribed Chinese herbal formula and single herb for stroke patients, respectively. Future study investigating the anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective efficacy of Bu-yang-huan-wu-tang and Dan-shen in stroke is warranted. Graphical abstract

The Use of Oral Anticoagulants for Stroke Prevention in Atrial Fibrillation Patients with History of Intra-Cranial Hemorrhage.
CONCLUSIONS: -Warfarin use may be beneficial for AF patients with prior ICH having a CHA2DS2-VASc score ≥6. Whether the use of non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs) could lower the threshold for treatment deserves further study. PMID: 26969761 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Risk of Cerebrovascular Events in Pneumoconiosis Patients: A Population-based Study, 1996–2011
Abstract: Pneumoconiosis is a parenchymal lung disease that develops through the inhalation of inorganic dust at work. Cerebrovascular and cardiovascular events are leading causes of mortality and adult disability worldwide. This retrospective cohort study investigated the association between pneumoconiosis, and cerebrovascular and cardiovascular events by using a nationwide population-based database in Taiwan. The data analyzed in this study was retrieved from the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database. We selected 6940 patients with pneumoconiosis from the database as our study cohort. Another 27,760 patient...

Medication Adherence and the Risk of Cardiovascular Mortality and Hospitalization Among Patients With Newly Prescribed Antihypertensive Medications Epidemiology/Population
This study evaluated the effect of antihypertensive medication adherence on specific cardiovascular disease mortality (ischemic heart disease [IHD], cerebral hemorrhage, and cerebral infarction). Our study used data from a 3% sample cohort that was randomly extracted from enrollees of Korean National Health Insurance. Study subjects were aged ≥20 years, were diagnosed with hypertension, and started newly prescribed antihypertensive medication in 2003 to 2004. Adherence to antihypertensive medication was estimated as the cumulative medication adherence. Subjects were divided into good (cumulative medication adherence, &g...

Cardiovascular, Bleeding, and Mortality Risks of Dabigatran in Asians With Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— In real-world practice, dabigatran was associated with a reduced risk of ischemic stroke, intracranial hemorrhage, all hospitalized major bleeding, and all-cause mortality compared with warfarin in Asian patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation. Dabigatran did not increase the risk of major gastrointestinal bleeding or myocardial infarction compared with warfarin.
