The impact of lower extremity pain conditions on clinical variables and health-related quality of life in patients with stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: Since lower extremity pain conditions have a significant important influence on clinical variables and health-related quality of life in stroke survivors, early identification and appropriate treatment of the lower extremity pain conditions should be carried out in order to reduce the level of disability in stroke patients.

Women With Osteoarthritis Are at Increased Risk of Ischemic Stroke: A Population-Based Cohort Study.
CONCLUSION: Women with OA are at an elevated risk of ischemic stroke. A close monitoring of hypertension, atrial fibrillation, and other stroke related comorbidities is required for stroke prevention for OA patients.

Potential association between bacterial infections and ischemic stroke based on fifty case-control studies: A systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSIONS: In this meta-analysis, a significant relationship was observed between infection by three bacteria such as C. pneumoniae, H. pylori, and M. tuberculosis with the occurrence of ischemic stroke. Furthermore, due to the similarity between TLRVYK domain in β2-glycoprotein-I and TLRVYK peptide in various of microorganisms, produced antibodies against pathogens interact with β2-glycoprotein-I, hence the cross-reaction phenomenon increases the positive relationship between infectious diseases and ischemic stroke.PMID:35592534 | PMC:PMC9112101 | DOI:10.1016/j.nmni.2022.100980

Stroke risk in arthritis: A systematic review and meta-analysis of cohort studies
by Wei Liu, Wei Ma, Hua Liu, Chunyan Li, Yangwei Zhang, Jie Liu, Yu Liang, Sijia Zhang, Zhen Wu, Chenghao Zang, Jianhui Guo, Liyan Li
Background and objectiveStroke is a major contributor to the global burden of disease. Although numerous modifiable risk factors (RF) for stroke have been identified, some remain unexplained. Increasing studies have investigated stroke risk in arthritis, but their results are inconsistent. We aimed to synthesize, quantify, and compare the risk of stroke for the major types of arthritis in cohort studies by using a systematic review and meta-analysis approach. MethodsWe searched Chinese and E...

Cryptotanshinone possesses therapeutic effects on ischaemic stroke through regulating STAT5 in a rat model
CONCLUSION: Our findings not only enhance the understanding of the mechanisms underlying CT treatment, but also indicate its potential value as a promising agent in the treatment of ischaemic stroke. Further study will be valuable to examine the effects of CT on patients with ischaemic stroke.PMID:33915069 | DOI:10.1080/13880209.2021.1914672

Can an Ankle Foot Orthoses with a Heel Lift Decrease Genu Recurvatum in Adults Post-Stroke?
Genu recurvatum (GR) in persons who are post-stroke can lead to excessive peak knee extension (>5 degrees) during the stance phase of gait. If untreated, GR can contribute to knee instability, weakness, osteoarthritis, and chronic pain. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of combining a heel lift with an ankle-foot orthosis (AFO) on genu recurvatum during gait in persons who are post-stroke. We hypothesized that the heel lift would result in a decrease in peak knee extension during the stance phase of gait.

Osteoarthritis & Stroke: A Bidirectional Mendelian Randomization Study
The epidemiological evidence on the link between osteoarthritis (OA) and stroke remains inconclusive. Herein, we adopted a two-sample bidirectional Mendelian randomization (MR) study to determine the causality relationship between OA and stroke.

Genes, Vol. 13, Pages 1584: Hip Osteoarthritis and the Risk of Lacunar Stroke: A Two-Sample Mendelian Randomization Study
This study showed a causal effect of hip OA on the risk of LS, and more efforts should be made to explore the potential mechanisms in the future.

Delayed bilateral massive stroke following a road traffic accident
A 72-year-old man was found unresponsive. Initial assessment revealed a Glasgow Coma Score of 4 (E1, V1, M2) with equal and reactive small pupils. The patient's past medical history included alcohol excess, osteoarthritis and a transient ischaemic attack. Of note the patient was involved in a high speed road traffic accident 3 days prior, suffering only seemingly minor injuries. The patient underwent CT scanning which revealed extensive bilateral frontoparietal lobe infarctions (figure 1). CT angiography demonstrated a small calibre internal carotid artery (ICA) on the right, together with complete occlusion of the le...

Ultrasound-guided corticosteroid injections for adhesive capsulitis more effective than placebo
Commentary on: Prestgaard T, Wormgoor ME, Haugen S, et al.. Ultrasound-guided intra-articular and rotator interval corticosteroid injections in adhesive capsulitis of the shoulder: a double-blind, sham-controlled randomized study. Pain 2015;156:1683–91. Context Adhesive capsulitis (frozen shoulder or painful stiff shoulder) is relatively common. It is idiopathic: known associated factors include trauma, diabetes, prolonged immobilisation, age, stroke and autoimmune disease. While self-limited, pain and decreased range of motion can last up to 2–3 years. Therefore, there is practical value in therapeutic in...

Increased Risk of Stroke in Patients With Osteoarthritis: A Population-Based Cohort Study
Osteoarthritis (OA) is related to carotid atherosclerosis. Few studies have investigated the incidence of cerebrovascular diseases in patients with OA. Therefore, we conducted a population-based cohort study to determine the incidence and risk of stroke in patients with OA.

Making use of equity sensitive QALYs: a case study on identifying the worse off across diseases
Conclusion:
This study shows that it is feasible to identify who are the worse off empirically by the application of lifetime QALYs and proportional shortfalls. These methods ease further examination of whether there is a true conflict between maximization and equity or whether these two concerns actually coincide in real world cases. It is yet to be solved whether proportional prospective health losses are more important than absolute shortfalls in expected lifetime health in judgements about who are worse off.

Transitions in Frailty States Among Community-Living Older Adults and Their Associated Factors
Abstract: Background: Frailty renders older individuals more prone to adverse health outcomes. Little has been reported about the transitions between the different frailty states. We attempted to examine the rate of these transitions and their associated factors.Methods: We recruited 3018 Chinese community-living adults 65 years or older. Frailty status was classified according to the Fried criteria in 2 visits 2 years apart. Demographic data, medical conditions, hospitalizations, and cognition were recorded. Rates of transitions and associated factors were studied.Results: At baseline, 850 (48.7%) men and 884 (52.6%) wome...
