Occupational exposure to noise and dust in Swedish soft paper mills and mortality from ischemic heart disease and ischemic stroke: a cohort study
ConclusionNoise levels  >  90 dBA was associated with increased IHD mortality. Combined exposures of noise and paper dust may further increase the risks. Our results do not provide support for a causal relationship for ischemic stroke. Residual confounding from smoking has to be considered. Workers need to be protected fro m occupational noise levels exceeding 90 dBA.

Development of a Swedish short version of the Montreal Cognitive Assessment for cognitive screening in patients with stroke
CONCLUSION: The s-MoCA-SWE (threshold ≤ 12) can detect post-stroke cognitive issues. The high sensitivity makes it a potentially useful "rule-out" tool that may eliminate severe cognitive impairment in people with stoke.PMID:37309231 | DOI:10.2340/jrm.v55.4442

Thrombolysis in acute ischemic stroke in patients with dementia: A Swedish registry study
Conclusions: Younger patients with dementia and AIS are less likely to receive IVT. Among patients receiving thrombolysis, there are no differences in sICH or death, although patients with dementia have worse accommodation and functional outcomes at 3 months.

Experiences of living with persisting post-stroke dysphagia and of dysphagia management - a qualitative study.
CONCLUSIONS: Findings indicated that people with dysphagia experienced a lack of support from health care professionals. Better health care support following discharge from hospital is required to ensure an optimal quality of life. Actions to achieve this may include developing national guidelines for adequate dysphagia follow-up and establishing multidisciplinary dysphagia teams in hospitals and long-term care facilities.

Survival and functional outcome following endovascular thrombectomy for anterior circulation acute ischemic stroke caused by large vessel occlusion in Sweden 2017-2019 < em > - < /em > a nationwide, prospective, observational study
CONCLUSIONS: EVT patients from our large real-world national dataset differed from RCT patients in several baseline factors including distribution of vascular occlusion site. However, the overall outcome of EVT in our Swedish cohort appeared to well match the pivotal trial findings.PMID:35044270 | DOI:10.1177/15910199211073019

Self-reported medication adherence and pharmacy refill adherence among persons with ischemic stroke: a cross-sectional study
ConclusionsThe majority of participants were classified as adherent, 87% according to MARS-5 and 78% based on data from SPDR. However, only 70% were adherent according to both MARS-5 and SPDR, and different predictors were associated with the different measurements, suggesting that these assessments are measuring different aspects of adherence.
