The economic burden of stroke: a systematic review of cost of illness studies
J Med Life. 2021 Sep-Oct;14(5):606-619. doi: 10.25122/jml-2021-0361.ABSTRACTStroke is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. As the number of stroke cases is rising from one year to another, policymakers require data on the amount spent on stroke to enforce better financing policies for prevention, hospital care, outpatient rehabilitation services and social services. We aimed to systematically assess the economic burden of stroke at global level. Cost of stroke studies were retrieved from five databases. We retrieved the average cost per patient, where specified, or estimated it using a top-down a...

Primary stroke prevention in children with sickle cell anemia living in africa: the false choice between patient-oriented research and humanitarian service-part ii
Trans Am Clin Climatol Assoc. 2022;132:236-248.ABSTRACTIn the United States, primary stroke prevention in children with sickle cell anemia (SCA) is the standard of care and includes annual transcranial Doppler ultrasound to detect elevated velocities. For children with velocities ≥200 cm/sec, initial monthly blood transfusion therapy for at least a year, followed by the option of hydroxyurea therapy, results in a significant decline in the stroke rate. In Africa, no prior strategy exists for primary stroke prevention because regular blood transfusion therapy is not feasible. We completed a randomized controlled trial for...
