Croatian study on COVID-19-positive stroke patients during the second wave of the pandemic
CONCLUSION: Ischemic stroke after COVID-19 differs in etiology from ischemic stroke complicated by COVID-19 infection. Both patient groups are characterized by severe disability and high mortality. Raising the awareness of prehospital stroke and optimization of clinical workflow are important if we want to improve the stroke outcomes by acute recanalization techniques.PMID:36325667 | PMC:PMC9648083 | DOI:10.3325/cmj.2022.63.431

Propensity-score matched comparison between minimally invasive and conventional aortic valve replacement
CONCLUSIONS: We showed that mini-AVR was associated with less blood product requirement than conventional surgery. Our data supports wider adoption of minimally invasive techniques in dedicated centers of excellence.PMID:36325666 | PMC:PMC9648077 | DOI:10.3325/cmj.2022.63.423

The effect of atorvastatin on the common carotid artery intima-media thickness in patients with ischemic stroke.
Authors: Khazaei M, Khosravi M, Mazaheri S, Mazdeh M, Ghiasian M, Taheri M, Ghafouri-Fard S Abstract Occlusion of the initial segment of internal carotid artery is the most common reason for vascular events in the brain. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of one-year treatment with atorvastatin on intima-media thickness (IMT) of carotid arteries as a measure of atherosclerosis in stroke patients. In this prospective interventional study, 44 patients with ischemic stroke were investigated. Patients were treated with atorvastatin 40 mg once a day for one year. IMT of carotid arteries was measured...

Patterns of anticoagulation therapy in atrial fibrillation: results from a large real-life single-center registry.
CONCLUSION: Warfarin and DOACs are administered to different target populations, possibly due to socio-economic reasons. Patients receiving warfarin rarely obtain optimal dosing control, and experience significantly shorter survival compared with patients receiving DOACs. PMID: 33150762 [PubMed - in process]

Predictors of early-onset depression after first-ever stroke.
PREDICTORS OF EARLY-ONSET DEPRESSION AFTER FIRST-EVER STROKE. Acta Clin Croat. 2020 Mar;59(1):81-90 Authors: Rabi-Žikić T, Živanović Ž, Đajić V, Simić S, Ružička-Kaloci S, Slankamenac S, Žikić M Abstract Post-stroke depression (PSD) is a severe and frequent stroke complication and one of the crucial factors for the outcome of rehabilitation and life quality after stroke. However, mood disorders frequently remain unnoticed and therefore untreated. The aim of the study was to examine all the potential risk factors and determine the independent predictors of early-onset depression after first-...

Role of platelet gene polymorphisms in ischemic pediatric stroke subtypes: a case-control study.
CONCLUSION: Individual HPAs, and particularly HPA haplotypes, are involved in IPS subtypes pathogenesis. A possible risk-inducing synergistic effect of SELP haplotypes with FV R506Q is restricted to PAIS only. PMID: 32118374 [PubMed - in process]
