An unusual case of takayasu arteritis presenting as acute myocardial infarction and ischaemic stroke
CONCLUSION: This disease should be considered in female patients who present with chronic inflammation and acute coronary syndrome.PMID:36791035 | PMC:PMC9766845 | DOI:10.36141/svdld.v39i3.12688

Before blaming SARS-CoV-2 for cerebrovascular disease in children, all differentials need to be ruled out
We read with interest the article by Spanelova et al. about four pediatric patients with cerebrovascular complications after a putative SARS-CoV-2 infection [1]. Patient-1 was diagnosed with subdural hematoma (SDH) and meningitis, patient-2 with cerebral vasculitis, patient-3 with lacunar stroke, and patient-4 with venous sinus thrombosis (VST) with haemorrhage [1]. It was concluded that SARS-CoV-2 infections in children can be complicated by cerebro-vascular disease [1]. The study is promising but raises concerns that should be discussed.

Ultrasound Criteria for Diagnosing Spontaneous Cervical Artery Dissections
This article describes the diagnostic criteria and typical findings of spontaneous dissection, in which no dissecting membrane is to be expected as in aortic dissection. Traumatic dissections following blunt or penetrating injuries also present with different findings. Examiners should be aware of possible differential diagnoses whose ultrasound image may mimic a dissection. A frequently occurring but avoidable cause of misdiagnosis is idiopathic carotidynia. Ultrasound also enables differentiation between dissection and vasculitis or carotid web and detection of normal variants such as fenestration of the vertebral artery...

COVID-19-Associated Cerebrovascular Events: A Case Series Study and a Literature Review of Possible Mechanisms
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) affects multiple body systems, including the nervous system. Cerebrovascular accidents can also occur. Patients with comorbid illnesses have severe manifestations and poor outcomes. Despite the proper mechanism of SARS-CoV-2 infection-associated stroke having not yet been settled, various possible mechanisms have been hypothesized. One possibility is that the virus causes endothelial dysfunction and immune-mediated injury. Another possibility is that the trans-neuronal spread of the virus affects brain tissue. In addition, hypercoagulability caused by SARS-CoV-2 ...

Acute posterior multifocal placoid pigment epitheliopathy: clinical presentation and risk of stroke and transient ischaemic attack
CONCLUSIONS: The presence of headache cannot reliably predict those at risk of stroke/TIA. Individuals presenting with acute posterior multifocal pigment epitheliopathy should therefore undergo a clinical neurological review and work-up for cerebral vasculitis as deemed appropriate by the treating ophthalmologist and collaborating neurologist.PMID:36657959 | DOI:10.1136/bjo-2022-321517

Traditional and disease specific risk factors for cardiovascular events in ANCA-associated vasculitis: a multinational retrospective study
CONCLUSION: We showed that geographic region and both traditional and disease specific (kidney involvement in particular) factors were independently associated with CVE. Proper assessment and management of modifiable cardiovascular risk factors are essential for prevention of cardiovascular morbidity in AAV patients.PMID:36642436 | DOI:10.3899/jrheum.220851
