Risk of fractures after stroke: Results from the Ontario Stroke Registry
Conclusions: Stroke is associated with an increased risk of low-trauma fractures. Individuals with stroke and additional risk factors for fractures may benefit from targeted screening for low bone mineral density and initiation of treatment for fracture prevention.

Bone Mineral Density and Incidence of Stroke: European Prospective Investigation Into Cancer-Norfolk Population-Based Study, Systematic Review, and Meta-Analysis Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— Bone mineral density predicts total stroke risk. The evidence is stronger in women with regard to the continuous relationship.

Evaluation of the Effectiveness of Treatment with Botulinum Toxin on Sleep Quality in Stroke-Related Spasticity
Stroke is one of the most common causes of mortality and neurological disability worldwide.1 Spasticity is one of the most common findings of hemiplegia after stroke and the rate of spasticity after stroke is 40%.2 Spasticity is defined as sensory-motor control disorder, arising from intermittent or continuous involuntary activation of muscles resulting from upper motor neuron lesion.3 Although spasticity has benefits such as contributing to standing and walking, preventing osteoporosis, deep vein thrombosis and contributing to blood circulation, it is a complex disorder that causes serious disability in daily life activit...

Utilization of screening and treatment for osteoporosis among stroke survivors
ConclusionsBoth BMD testing and osteoporosis treatment were underutilized among stroke survivors even though they had a higher chance of receiving both measures than non-stroke patients.

Factors associated with fracture after stroke and TIA: a long-term follow-up
ConclusionStroke was positively associated with fracture in patients<  80 years, while TIA was positively associated with fracture in patients ≥ 80 years and females. Dementia and analgesic therapy were also associated with fracture after either stroke or TIA.

Calcium supplements linked to post-stroke dementia in women
Conclusion The media paint this as a troubling study for older women who take calcium to strengthen their bones. However the small size of the study (only 98 women took calcium supplements, and only 14 of those got dementia) and its observational nature mean that we cannot rely on the results. As the researchers mention, it is possible that those taking supplements were less healthy than those that didn't in some unmeasured way. Further research may improve our confidence in these results. Broken bones are not a trivial matter for older people – a broken hip can be the difference between being able to live independentl...

Risk of hip fracture following stroke, a meta-analysis of 13 cohort studies
This study systematically reviews prospective and retrospective cohort studies evaluating the risk of hip fracture following stroke. Stroke survivors are at high risk of hip fracture and had a 1.5-fold increased risk compared to stroke-free men and women of the same age. Hip fracture often occurs in ageing and female stroke patients. We performed a meta-analysis to summarize evidence from prospective and retrospective cohort studies about the risk of hip fracture following stroke. We identified English and non-English publications in MEDLINE and EMBASE using stroke and fracture as keywords to 31 December 2015. The data of ...

The impact of preadmission oral bisphosphonate use on 30-day mortality following stroke: a population-based cohort study of 100,043 patients
Conclusion: We found no overall evidence that preadmission bisphosphonate use increases 30-day mortality following stroke. Keywords: prognosis, oral bisphosphonates, stroke, mortality, cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis treatment

The Epidemiology of Fracture in Patients with Acute Ischemic Stroke in Korea.
CONCLUSION: The CIFs of fractures are about 8% at 2 years and 13% at 4 years after acute ischemic stroke in Korea. Older age, women, pre-stroke fracture and osteoporosis raised the risk of post-stroke fractures. PMID: 31172697 [PubMed - in process]

Associations between stroke type, stroke severity, and pre-stroke osteoporosis with the risk of post-stroke fracture: A nationwide population-based study
BackgroundRecognizing the post-stroke fracture risk factors is crucial for targeted intervention and primary fracture prevention. We aimed to investigate whether stroke types, stroke severity, and pre-stroke osteoporosis are associated with post-stroke fracture.MethodsIn a nationwide cohort, we identified previously fracture-free patients who suffered from first-ever stroke, either acute ischemic stroke (AIS) or intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), between 2003 and 2015. Information regarding stroke severity, osteoporosis, comorbidity, and medication information was collected.

Risk of osteoporotic fractures following stroke in older persons
Conclusion To evaluate the relative risk of stroke survivors for osteoporotic fractures, functional status appears to be a relevant parameter.

Chronic effects of stroke on hip bone density and tibial morphology: a longitudinal study
Conclusions There is evidence of continuous trabecular bone loss in the paretic tibial distal epiphysis among chronic stroke patients, but it tends to plateau after 2 years of stroke onset. The steady state may have been reached earlier in the hip and tibial diaphysis.

Drug treatment strategies for osteoporosis in stroke patients.
Authors: Hsieh CY, Sung SF, Huang HK Abstract Introduction: Osteoporosis and subsequent fractures are well-recognized complications of stroke. However, drug treatment strategies for osteoporosis after stroke have been rarely discussed in the current guidelines for the management of stroke or osteoporosis.Areas covered: The authors review the epidemiology, characteristics, pathophysiology, and risk prediction of post-stroke osteoporosis and fractures. Then they provide an overview of existing evidence regarding drug treatment strategies for osteoporosis in stroke patients. They also review the effects on bone minera...
