Predictive value of the Oxford Acute Severity of Illness Score in acute stroke patients with stroke-associated pneumonia
ConclusionOASIS can effectively predict the onset and death of SAP patients and provides a potential reference index for early diagnosis and the prediction of prognosis in patients with SAP. Our findings should be considered in clinical practice.

A brain CT-based approach for predicting and analyzing stroke-associated pneumonia from intracerebral hemorrhage
DiscussionOur findings suggest that our method is effective in classifying the development of pneumonia based on brain CT scans. Furthermore, we identified distinct characteristics, such as volume and distribution, of ICH in four different types of SAP.

Effects of nurse-led hierarchical management care on acute stroke patients: A pilot study to promote stroke-associated pneumonia management
ConclusionNurse-led hierarchical management care based on AIS-APS can reduce the incidence of SAP, promote AIS patients' neurological function, and maintain patients' ADL. The results of our study indicated that nurse-led hierarchical management care is feasible for AIS patients and provides individualized interventions for patients with different levels of SAP risk. Nurse-led hierarchical management care could be incorporated into routine nursing practice. Further study is needed and expected to solve more clinical problems.

Risk factors for and outcomes of poststroke pneumonia in patients with acute ischemic stroke treated with mechanical thrombectomy
ConclusionMore than one in three patients with AIS treated with MT developed PSP. Dysphagia, intubation, higher BMI, and SII were associated with PSP in these patients. Patients with AIS who develop PSP are more likely to experience negative outcomes. The prevention and identification of PSP are necessary to reduce mortality and improve clinical outcomes.

Subdural evacuating port system with subdural thrombolysis for the treatment of chronic subdural hematoma in patients older than 80 years
ConclusionAs an exhaustive drainage strategy, SEPS followed by thrombolysis is safe and effective with excellent outcomes among elderly patients. It is a technically easy and less invasive procedure with similar complications, mortality, and recurrence rates compared with burr-hole drainage in the literature.

Predictors of 30-day mortality among patients with stroke admitted at a tertiary teaching hospital in Northwestern Tanzania: A prospective cohort study
ConclusionStroke is associated with a high 30-day mortality rate in Northwestern Tanzania. Concerted efforts are warranted in managing patients with stroke, with particular attention to individuals with severe strokes, ECG abnormalities, and swallowing difficulties to reduce early morbidity and mortality.

Inflammatory response biomarkers nomogram for predicting pneumonia in patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage
ConclusionSIRI and PLR at admission can be utilized as prognostic inflammatory biomarkers in patients with SICH in the upper brain treated with SAP. A nomogram covering SIRI and PLR can more accurately predict SAP in patients' supratentorial SICH. SAP can influence the length of hospital stay and the clinical outcome.

Risk factors and complications associated with intra-operative or post-operative identification of a PFO in cardiac surgery patients: A cohort study
ConclusionPatent foramen ovale finding incidence in peri-operative cardiac surgery care was rare (2%) but post-operative finding of PFO was associated with a increased risk of ischemic strokes, worsened respiratory outcomes, and prolonged hospitalization.

More is less: Effect of ICF-based early progressive mobilization on severe aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage in the NICU
DiscussionWe conclude that the ICF-based early progressive mobilization protocol is an effective and feasible intervention tool. For validity, more mobilization interventions might lead to less pneumonia, duration of mechanical ventilation and length of stay for patients with severe aSAH in the NICU, Moreover, it is necessary to pay attention over potential adverse events (especially line problems), although we did not find serious safety events.

Patient's care bundle benefits to prevent stroke associated pneumonia: A meta-analysis with trial sequential analysis
ConclusionsThe patient's care bundle effectively prevents the occurrence of SAP and aspiration and shortens the hospital stay of stroke patients. However, it is necessary to design more high-quality studies to further validate our findings and investigate their applicability in other geographical regions.

A novel risk score to predict deep vein thrombosis after spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage
ConclusionThe ICH-DVT is a valid grading scale for predicting in-hospital DVT after ICH. Further studies on the effect of the ICH-DVT on clinical outcomes after ICH are warranted.

Prospective pilot study of tirofiban in progressive stroke after intravenous thrombolysis
ConclusionEarly treatment with low-dose tirofiban in AIS patients with neurologic deterioration after IVT potentially improved functional recovery and attenuated neurologic deficits as early as 7 days and did not increase the risk of various hemorrhagic complications. However, the therapeutic efficacy of tirofiban treatment in END patients needs to be determined by future randomized clinical trials with a large study population.Clinical trial registrationhttp://www.chictr.org.cn/, Identifier ChiCTR2200058513.

Reduced plasma levels of RGM-A predict stroke-associated pneumonia in patients with acute ischemic stroke: A prospective clinical study
ConclusionsWe demonstrated that reduced plasma levels of RGM-A might help in the early identification of high-risk patients with SAP and predict the occurrence of SAP in patients with AIS. RGM-A might provide new clues to a potential alternative therapy for SAP.

General anesthesia but not conscious sedation improves functional outcome in patients receiving endovascular thrombectomy for acute ischemic stroke: A meta-analysis of randomized clinical trials and trial sequence analysis
ConclusionPatients with acute anterior circulation ischemic stroke receiving GA were associated with a higher successful recanalization rate as well as a better 3-month neurological outcome compared to the use of CS. Further investigations are warranted to verify our findings.Systematic review registrationwww.crd.york.ac.uk/prospero/display_record.php?ID=CRD42022342483, identifier: CRD42022342483.

Association of the stress hyperglycemia ratio and clinical outcomes in patients with stroke: A systematic review and meta-analysis
ConclusionWith or without diabetes, no matter whether undergoing intravenous thrombolysis or mechanical thrombectomy, higher SHR significantly increased the occurrence of poor outcomes, mortality, neurological deficit, HT, and infectious complications. The recanalization rate was not statistically significant between the two groups. More attention must be paid in clinical practice to SH. Future investigation should focus on the diagnostic value of SHR and the early control of hyperglycemia. Meanwhile, whether SHR could become a novel and promising target for early intervention is worthy of attention in further research. Be...
