Outcomes after Tissue Plasminogen Activator Administration under the Drip and Ship Paradigm May Differ According to the Regional Stroke Care System
The drip and ship paradigm for stroke patients enhances the rate of using intravenous tissue plasminogen activator (IVT) in community hospitals. The safety and outcomes of patients treated with IVT for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) under the drip and ship paradigm were compared with patients directly treated at a comprehensive stroke center in the Busan metropolitan area of Korea. This was a retrospective study of patients with AIS treated with IVT between January 2009 and January 2012. Information on patients' baseline characteristics, neuroimaging, symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage (sICH), and outcome 90 days after usi...

Prevalence of Triggering Factors in Acute Stroke: Hospital-Based Observational Cross-sectional Study
Although chronic risk factors for stroke are reasonably well understood, the acute precipitants, or triggers, of stroke relatively remain understudied. Identification of particular time periods during which stroke risk is elevated could prove a valuable strategy to reduce stroke incidence through the introduction of appropriate prevention strategies during a period of vulnerability. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of trigger factors in acute stroke patients and to investigate the association of the presence of trigger factors with initial stroke severity at presentation (National Institutes of Health ...

Clinical Characteristics of Driving-related Stroke Occurring as a Recurrent Stroke
Background: Although the number of seemingly healthy subjects who suffer a minor stroke increases, there are no data on how frequently they sustain another stroke while driving. Methods: A single-center, retrospective study was conducted to clarify the clinical characteristics of driving-related stroke occurring as a recurrent stroke by analyzing data prospectively acquired between January 2009 and June 2019 on 3452 acute stroke patients. Results: One hundred-thirty five patients (85 ischemic stroke [IS] and 50 hemorrhagic stroke [HS]) had suffered a driving-related stroke.

Preclusion of Ischemic Stroke Patients from Intravenous Tissue Plasminogen Activator Treatment for Mild Symptoms Should Not be Based on Low National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale Scores
Conclusions: Language impairment, distal (hand) paresis, and gait disorder are common disabling deficits in patients with low NIHSS scores. Judgment of whether a stroke is disabling should not be based on the NIHSS score but on the assessment of the individual neurologic deficits and their impact on functional impairment.

Alkaline Phosphatase and Risk of Stroke Among Japanese: The Circulatory Risk in Communities Study (CIRCS)
Although serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) levels have been associated with mortality from all-cause and from either ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke, no study has been published of the associations between ALP and the incidence of stroke. We therefore examined the associations of ALP with risk of stroke among Japanese, stratified by drinking status because ALP is known as an enzyme affected by alcohol consumption. We conducted a prospective cohort study of 10,754 Japanese subjects (4098 men and 6656 women) aged 40-69 years and living in 4 communities under systematic surveillance for stroke incidence. During the 16-year foll...

The Spectrum of Aphasia Subtypes and Etiology in Subacute Stroke
Background: Aphasia is one of the most common stroke syndrome presentations, yet little is known about the spectrum of different subtypes or their stroke mechanisms. Yet, subtypes and etiology are known to influence the prognosis and recovery.Aim: Our aim is to analyze aphasia subtypes and etiology in a large subacute stroke population.Methods: Consecutive patients from a dedicated cognitive stroke registry were accrued. A validated cognitive screening examination was administered during the first month of stroke presentation, which enabled a diagnosis of 14 different aphasic subtypes. The evolution from one subtype to ano...

A Proposal for the Classification of Etiologies of Neurologic Deterioration after Acute Ischemic Stroke
Conclusions: In the present study, the authors identified probable etiologies of ND after ischemic stroke. Delineating the cause of ND could play an important role in the management of the patient and help set expectations for prognosis after ND has occurred. Prospective studies are needed to validate these proposed definitions of ND.

Bleeding Complications Associated with Warfarin Treatment in Ischemic Stroke Patients with Atrial Fibrillation: A Population-Based Cohort Study
Background: Bleeding events are the major obstacle to the widespread use of warfarin for secondary stroke prevention. Previous studies have not examined the use of risk stratification scores to estimate lifetime bleeding risk associated with warfarin treatment in a population-based setting. The purpose of this study is to determine the lifetime risk of bleeding events in ischemic stroke patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) undergoing warfarin treatment in a population-based cohort and to evaluate the use of bleeding risk scores to identify patients at high risk for lifetime bleeding events.Methods: The resources of the R...

Hyponatremia in the Prognosis of Acute Ischemic Stroke
Background: Hyponatremia is a risk factor for stroke and cardiovascular disease. Even mild hyponatremia is associated with increased 30-day mortality after myocardial infarction, and it has recently shown to increase the 3-year mortality after a stroke. In this work, we investigated both acute and chronic clinical outcomes after a stroke in hyponatremic patients.Methods: We reviewed all patients admitted between 2004 and 2011 with the diagnosis of acute ischemic stroke. Hyponatremia was defined as serum sodium level less than 135 mmol/L and recorded on admission. All hemorrhagic strokes were excluded. Data were analyzed us...

Changes in Serum Growth Factors in Stroke Rehabilitation Patients and Their Relation to Hemiparesis Improvement
Predicting recovery from hemiparesis after stroke is important for rehabilitation. A few recent studies reported that the levels of some growth factors shortly after stroke were positively correlated with the clinical outcomes during the chronic phase. The aim of this study was to examine the relationships between the serum levels of growth factors (vascular endothelial growth factor [VEGF], insulin-like growth factor-I [IGF-I], and hepatocyte growth factor [HGF]) and improvement in hemiparesis in stroke patients who received rehabilitation in a postacute rehabilitation hospital. Subjects were 32 stroke patients (cerebral ...
