Management Protocols and Encountered Complications among Stroke Patients Admitted to Stroke Unit of Jimma University Medical Center, Southwest Ethiopia: Prospective Observational study
ConclusionBoth neurologic and medical complications were common in majority of stroke patients. But the management protocol for stroke patients was sub-optimal and lagging behind the recommended guidelines due to lack of skilled personnel, appropriate treatment and diagnostic agents. The clinical team involved in the care of stroke patients should make preparations to take preventive measures that will save a lot of lives.

Risk of stroke in genetically verified familial hypercholesterolemia: A prospective matched cohort study
CONCLUSIONS: No significant excess risk of incident total and ischemic stroke in FH, and no difference in total stroke risk among the FH population with low, intermediate, and high statin exposure were observed. The observed relationship between FH and hemorrhagic stroke was no longer significant after adjusting for use of anti-thrombotic medication.PMID:36084445 | DOI:10.1016/j.atherosclerosis.2022.08.015

Lipoprotein-associated Phospholipase A2 during the Hyperacute Stage of Ischemic and Hemorrhagic Strokes
Conclusions: Lp-PLA2 mass is higher in ICH compared with ischemic stroke during the hyperacute stage. Lp-PLA2 activity is associated with stroke volume in ICH but not in ischemic stroke. This suggests that Lp-PLA2 mass and activity could provide different information in the hyperacute stage of stroke.

Clinical Effectiveness of Statin Therapy after Ischemic Stroke: Primary Results from the Statin Therapeutic Area of the Patient-Centered Research into Outcomes Stroke Patients Prefer and Effectiveness Research (PROSPER) Study.
CONCLUSIONS: -In older ischemic stroke patients who were not taking statins at the time of admission, discharge statin therapy was associated with lower risk of MACE and nearly a month more home-time during the 2-year period post-hospitalization. PMID: 26246175 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Statins and poststroke intracerebral hemorrhage: Concern but increasing reassurance
Post hoc analyses of data from randomized controlled trials can generate useful hypotheses, but need to be considered exploratory. When conducted, such evaluations should adhere to specified criteria and test for a treatment by subgroup interaction for the trial's primary endpoint.1 The best way to proceed if unexpected but potentially important outcomes occur is less clear. Concern that treatment with HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors (i.e., statins) might increase the risk of poststroke intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) arose from an unanticipated observation in the Stroke Prevention with Aggressive Reduction in Cholesterol Leve...

Reduction in High-Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein Levels in Patients with Ischemic Stroke by Statin Treatment: Hs-CRP Sub-Study in J-STARS.
CONCLUSION: In non-cardiogenic ischemic stroke, pravastatin treatment may reduce vascular inflammation as assessed by Hs-CRP, and higher Hs-CRP levels appeared to increase the risk of recurrent stroke and vascular events. PMID: 28302952 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Opportunities for intervention: stroke treatments, disability and mortality in urban Tanzania
ConclusionsThe 90-day mortality of stroke presenting at MNH is 50%, much higher than in higher income settings. Although severe stroke presentations are a major factor, efforts to improve the quality of care and prevent complications of stroke are urgently needed. Acute stroke interventions with low number needed to treat represent challenging long-term goals.

Association Between Intensity of Low-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Reduction With Statin-Based Therapies and Secondary Stroke Prevention: A Meta-analysis of Randomized Clinical Trials
CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: This study suggests that the benefits and risks of more intensive LDL-C-lowering statin-based therapies for recurrent stroke risk reduction might be more favorable than the benefits and risks of less intensive LDL-C-lowering statin-based therapies, especially for patients with evidence of atherosclerosis.PMID:35188949 | DOI:10.1001/jamaneurol.2021.5578

Statins in stroke.
Conclusion: Treatment with statins prevents ischemic stroke, especially in patients with high cardiovascular risk and established atherosclerotic disease. It seems that both lipid lowering and pleiotropic effects contribute to these effects. PMID: 31218948 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Statin Therapy for Preventing Recurrent Stroke in Patients with Ischemic Stroke: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of Randomised Controlled Trials and Observational Cohort Studies
We examined the outcomes of recurrent stroke (after ischemic stroke) of any type, and separately recurrent ischemic stroke and recurrent hemorrhagic stroke. RCTs and observational cohort studies were meta-analysed separately. Odds ratios (OR) was used to assess the effect of statin therapy. Meta-analysis was conducted using RevMan 5.4 software. Results We retrieved 559 papers in searches, of which 11 RCTs and 12 observational cohort studies were included. Both RCTs and observational studies found that statins reduced the odds of stroke of any type in those with an initial ischemic stroke (11 RCTs: OR=0.87, 95% CI [0.77,0....
