The frequency of CYP2C19 loss-of-function variants in patients with non-cardioembolic ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack in the Dutch population
Discussion and conclusion: About a quarter of patients with non-cardioembolic ischemic stroke or TIA in the Dutch population carry a CYP2C19 LOF variant. This is lower than estimates found in studies with Asian populations, but similar to estimates found among Caucasian patients in other parts of the world.

Dual Antiplatelet Therapies and Causes in Minor Stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack: A Prespecified Analysis in the CHANCE-2 Trial
CONCLUSIONS: In this prespecified analysis of the CHANCE-2 trial, the efficacy and safety of ticagrelor-aspirin versus clopidogrel-aspirin in preventing new stroke were consistent in patients with different causes. The influence of stroke cause on benefit of gene-guided antiplatelet therapy should be explored by further trials.REGISTRATION: URL: https://www.CLINICALTRIALS: gov; Unique identifier: NCT04078737.PMID:37548009 | DOI:10.1161/STROKEAHA.122.042233

Interest of Antiplatelet Drug Testing after an Acute Ischemic Stroke
Background: Stroke occurrence despite chronic antiplatelet drug (APD) treatment is frequent. We aimed at evaluating the relevance of platelet aggregation testing in the identification of stroke etiology in this context. Methods: Patients admitted for a suspected acute ischemic stroke, while under APD (aspirin and/or clopidogrel), were prospectively included. The efficacy of the APD was evaluated using a Multiplate™ assay. Resistance was confirmed using light transmission aggregometry. A standardized diagnostic work-up was performed to identify stroke mechanism according to the TOAST and the ASCO classifications. We evalu...

Genetic Polymorphisms and Clopidogrel Efficacy for Acute Ischemic Stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.
CONCLUSIONS: -Carriers of CYP2C19 loss-of-function alleles are at greater risk of stroke and composite vascular events compared with non-carriers among patients with ischemic stroke or TIA treated with clopidogrel. PMID: 27806998 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Acute Ischemic Stroke as a Presenting Feature of Multiple Myeloma (P3.279)
Conclusions:Stroke is a leading and preventable cause of disability in the US adult population. The majority of strokes are due to atherosclerotic vascular or cardioembolic disease. Understanding the diagnostic work up of stroke and recognizing rare etiologies like MM is important for stroke prevention. This brings to light the importance of recognizing stroke as an initial presenting feature of multiple myeloma and of multiple myeloma as an important treatable etiology of stroke.Disclosure: Dr. Chung has nothing to disclose.

Clopidogrel and aspirin after ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack: an updated systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized clinical trials
Conclusions: Among patients who presented with ischemic stroke/TIA, short-course clopidog rel plus aspirin immediately following the index event appears to be more effective than and as safe as monotherapy for secondary stroke prevention.

Stress hyperglycemia may have higher risk of stroke recurrence than previously diagnosed diabetes mellitus
Aging (Albany NY). 2021 Mar 22;13. doi: 10.18632/aging.202797. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTWe aim to evaluate the risk of stroke recurrence among non-diabetes mellitus (non-DM), previously diagnosed diabetes mellitus (PDDM), newly diagnosed diabetes mellitus-related hyperglycemia (NDDM-RH) and stress hyperglycemia after minor stroke or TIA. Totally, 3026 patients with baseline fasting glucose and glycated albumin from the CHANCE trial (Clopidogrel in High-Risk Patients with Acute Nondisabling Cerebrovascular Events) were included. Patients were classified as non-DM, PDDM, NDDM-RH and stress hyperglycemia according to the...

Long-term effectiveness and safety of cilostazol versus clopidogrel in secondary prevention of noncardioembolic ischemic stroke
ConclusionsThis real-world study suggests that cilostazol is effective and safe for noncardioembolic ischemic stroke and may be associated with better effectiveness in hypertensive patients compared to clopidogrel.

ASA failure: Does the combination ASA/clopidogrel confer better long-term vascular protection?
Conclusions: In patients with a recent lacunar stroke while taking ASA, the addition of clopidogrel did not result in reduction of vascular events vs continuing ASA only. Classification of evidence: This study provides Class I evidence that for patients with recent lacunar stroke while taking ASA, adding clopidogrel as compared to continuing ASA alone does not reduce the risk of recurrent stroke.

Recurrent Stroke was Associated with Poor Quality of Life in Patients with Transient Ischemic Attack or Minor Stroke: Finding from the CHANCE Trial.
CONCLUSIONS: Stroke recurrence was associated with poor HRQOL in patients with TIA or minor strokes. Interventions focusing on controlling risk factors and prevention of worsening of neurological function may prevent poor HRQOL in these patients. PMID: 25307297 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Abstract 6: Treatment Effect of Clopidogrel Plus Aspirin Within 12 Hours of Acute Minor Stroke or TIA Session Title: Abstract Oral Session: Outcomes
Conclusions: Among patients treated within 12 hours, the combination of clopidogrel and aspirin was more effective than aspirin alone in reducing the risk of recurrent ischemic stroke during the 90-day follow-up and did not increase the hemorrhagic risk. The higher ischemic stroke rate in the initial hours after stroke supports early more aggressive antiplatelet therapy.Clinical Trial Registration-URL: http//www.clinicaltrials.gov.

Systematic review and network meta-analysis of stroke prevention treatments in patients with atrial fibrillation.
CONCLUSION: All oral anticoagulants reduce the risk of stroke in AF patients. Some novel oral anticoagulants are associated with a lower stroke and/or major bleeding risk than warfarin. In addition to the safety and effectiveness of drug therapy, as reported in this study, individual treatment recommendations should also consider the patient's underlying stroke and bleeding risk profile.

Oral antiplatelet and anticoagulant agents in the prevention and management of ischemic stroke.
Abstract Despite numerous advances over the last 50 years, stroke continues to be a leading cause of death and disability worldwide. The treatment and prevention of stroke has undergone extensive study, and significant advances in medical management have occurred within the past decade principally with the development of new classes of orally active anticoagulant drugs. Here we review these recent breakthroughs and the varying roles of anticoagulants and antiplatelet agents in the prevention and management of different ischemic stroke subtypes, as well as describe the benefits and ongoing challenges to incorporati...

The correlation between recurrent risk and CYP2C19 gene polymorphisms in patients with ischemic stroke treated with clopidogrel for prevention
Conclusion: For patients with IS treated with clopidogrel regularly for secondary prevention, poor metabolizer, and intermediate metabolizer patients had higher risk of recurrent stroke comparing with extensive metabolize ones. Carrying CYP2C19 LOF allele is an independent risk factor of stroke recurrence in patients with IS.
