Platelet Count Predicts Adverse Clinical Outcomes After Ischemic Stroke or TIA: Subgroup Analysis of CNSR II
Conclusion: In ischemic stroke or TIA patients with platelet count within normal range, platelet count may be a qualified predictor for long-term recurrent stroke, mortality, and poor functional outcome. Introduction Platelets exert a critical role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerotic complications of cardio-cerebrovascular disease, contributing to thrombus formation, and embolism (1, 2). Previous literature reported that platelets of various size and density are produced by megakaryocytes of different size and stages of maturation in different clinical conditions, suggesting various platelet patterns in differen...

Stroke risk 'higher at start of warfarin treatment'
Conclusion This study has found that warfarin was associated with an increased risk of ischaemic stroke during the first 30 days of treatment. After 30 days of treatment, warfarin was associated with a decreased risk of stroke. However, this study has a number of limitations that should be considered: All information was from patient records, which means that it wasn't subject to recall bias, but the information may not be complete – we do not know if, for example, people took the medication they were prescribed. There may be other factors (confounders) that explain the association seen. In particular, the ba...

Cardiac Imaging Within Emergency CT Angiography for Acute Stroke Can Detect Atrial Clots
This study was approved by the ethics committee of the medical faculty of the Ruhr University Bochum. FIGURE 1 Figure 1. Flow chart showing the selection of the study population. Results A total of 59 patients underwent emergency CCTA (Figure 2A) for suspected stroke, of which 44 received the final diagnosis ischemic stroke. There were 17 patients who had ischemic stroke or TIA and known or newly diagnosed atrial fibrillation (Table 1; mean age: 77.5 years, standard deviation: 8.4 years; 53% female). As hypothesized, intracardiac thrombi could be visualized: once in an artificially occluded left atrial appe...

The relationship between malignant tumors and ischemic stroke: II. Chronology of diagnoses and treatment of strokes
Orv Hetil. 2022 Jan 9;163(2):43-51. doi: 10.1556/650.2022.32329. Print 2022 Jan 9.ABSTRACTÖsszefoglaló. A malignus daganatok és a stroke együttesen gyakran fordulnak elő a stroke tradicionális rizikófaktoraival (magas vérnyomás, hyperlipidaemia, cukorbetegség, elhízás, dohányzás) rendelkező betegekben. Az elmúlt évtized kutatási eredményei alátámasztották, hogy a rosszindulatú daganatban szenvedő betegekben szignifikánsan nagyobb a stroke kockázata. A malignus daganatokhoz társuló stroke a leggyakrabban a malignus daganat diagnózisát követő fél-egy év során jelentkezik. A kapcsolat a más...

Comorbidity and the increased mortality after hospitalization for stroke: a population-based cohort study.
CONCLUSION: Comorbidity, notably cancer and advanced renal or liver disease, increased one-year mortality after stroke beyond the combined effects expected from either disease acting alone.

A Case of Multiple Recurrent Ischemic Stroke in a Patient with Cholangiocarcinoma and Initiation of Anticoagulation Therapy for Secondary Stroke Prevention (P4.342)
CONCLUSIONS: Initiation of anticoagulation therapy and the optimal medications for secondary stroke prevention in cancer associated stroke remain controversial. Further randomized prospective studies are needed to establish treatment guidelines.Disclosure: Dr. Cheng has nothing to disclose. Dr. Then has nothing to disclose.

Impact of D-dimer levels for short-term or long-term outcomes in cryptogenic stroke patients
ConclusionsIncreased D-dimer levels at admission were associated with mortality at discharge in cryptogenic stroke patients. In addition, high D-dimer levels were also associated with long-term outcomes in cryptogenic stroke patients with RLS.

The relationship between malignant tumors and ischemic stroke: I. Thrombosis development and shared risk factors
Orv Hetil. 2022 Jan 2;163(1):3-11. doi: 10.1556/650.2021.32328. Print 2022 Jan 2.ABSTRACTÖsszefoglaló. A malignus daganat és a stroke egy-egy betegnél gyakran kombinálódik, sokszor egyidejűleg diagnosztizálják, vagy rövid idő telik el a két kórkép felismerése között. Az együttes megjelenés hátterében elsősorban a hasonló tradicionális rizikófaktorok állhatnak: az idősebb életkor, a magas vérnyomás, a hyperlipidaemia, a cukorbetegség, az elhízás és a dohányzás.

Predictors of Survival in Patients With Ischemic Stroke and Active Cancer: A Prospective, Multicenter, Observational Study
Conclusions The prognosis of patients with acute ischemic stroke and active cancer varied considerably depending on stroke mechanism, distant metastasis, and coagulation abnormalities. The present study confirmed that coagulation abnormalities were crucial in determining the prognosis of such patients.PMID:37489755 | DOI:10.1161/JAHA.123.029618

Predictive Risk Factors of In-Hospital Mortality Following Acute Stroke in the United States: Data from the Nationwide Inpatient Database, 2006-2010 (P02.015)
CONCLUSIONS: The rate of in-hospital mortality is relatively high following acute stroke (8.42%). We identified multiple risk factors of in-hospital mortality in acute stroke patients. The strongest risk factor is the type stroke (hemorrhagic). The present finding suggests that patients at increased risk of mortality can be identified and additional treatment for prevention might be warranted.Disclosure: Dr. Naderi has nothing to disclose.

Stroke and cancer
Rev Neurol (Paris). 2023 Apr 4:S0035-3787(23)00891-3. doi: 10.1016/j.neurol.2023.03.009. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAssociation between stroke and cancer is well-established and has led to a growing literature over the past decades. Risk of ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke is increased among patients with newly diagnosed cancer and 5-10% of stroke patients bear an active cancer. All cancers are concerned, but hematological malignancy in childhood and adenocarcinoma from lung, digestive tract and pancreas in adults are most usually identified. Unique stroke mechanisms are dominated by hypercoagulation, a condition that ma...

Ischemic Stroke in Cancer: Mechanisms, Biomarkers, and Implications for Treatment
Semin Thromb Hemost DOI: 10.1055/s-0043-1771270Ischemic stroke is an important cause of morbidity and mortality in cancer patients. The underlying mechanisms linking cancer and stroke are not completely understood. Long-standing and more recent evidence suggests that cancer-associated prothrombotic states, along with treatment-related vascular toxicity, such as with chemotherapy and immunotherapy, contribute to an increased risk of ischemic stroke in cancer patients. Novel biomarkers, including coagulation, platelet and endothelial markers, cell-free DNA, and extracellular vesicles are being investigated for their potentia...
