Impact of body mass index on efficacy and safety of ticagrelor versus clopidogrel in patients with minor stroke or transient ischemic attack
CMAJ. 2023 Jul 10;195(26):E897-E904. doi: 10.1503/cmaj.230262.ABSTRACTBACKGROUND: Body mass index (BMI) may affect the response to platelet P2Y12 receptor inhibitors. We aimed to explore whether BMI influenced the efficacy and safety of ticagrelor and clopidogrel for secondary prevention of minor ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) among patients enrolled in the CHANCE-2 (Ticagrelor or Clopidogrel with Aspirin in High-Risk Patients with Acute Nondisabling Cerebrovascular Events II) trial.METHODS: In a multicentre, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, conducted in China, we randomized patients ...

Middle Cerebral Artery Dissection: A Report of Two Cases With Treatments and Outcomes
Cureus. 2023 May 29;15(5):e39632. doi: 10.7759/cureus.39632. eCollection 2023 May.ABSTRACTIn the present report, we describe two cases of right-sided M1 segment middle cerebral artery dissection in a 51-year-old Asian female and in a 28-year-old Caucasian male patient with no previous history of ischemic stroke or known intracranial atherosclerosis presenting with acute unilateral headache progressing to severe multifocal hemispheric infarction with nearly complete one-sided motor paralysis. In both patients, a middle cerebral artery dissection was detected on angiography; they were given exclusively medical therapy: patie...

Optimization of secondary prevention in patients with high-risk atherothrombotic ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attacks
Zh Nevrol Psikhiatr Im S S Korsakova. 2023;123(6):36-43. doi: 10.17116/jnevro202312306136.ABSTRACTHigh and very high risk atherothrombotic ischemic stroke (ATIS) includes patients with severe extracranial atherosclerosis, any intracranial atherosclerosis, and aortic arch atheromatosis. The article discusses the most effective approaches to medical short- and long-term secondary prevention of ATIS, major vascular events and death, based on the results of modern research and current clinical guidelines. Clinical studies of recent years have proven the possibility of individualization and intensification of secondary preventi...

Differential Impact of Clinical Factors for Predicting High Platelet Reactivity on Clinical Outcomes in Acute Myocardial Infarction Patients Treated With Clopidogrel and Prasugrel
CONCLUSIONS: Clinical factors listed in the HHD-GENE score may help stratify ischemic risks in patients with acute MI treated with clopidogrel and prasugrel, whereas risk stratification without genetic testing in patients treated with clopidogrel may be challenging.PMID:37316266 | DOI:10.5551/jat.64217

Dual Versus Mono Antiplatelet Therapy in Patients with Acute Mild-to-Moderate Stroke: A Multicentre Perspective Cohort Study
ConclusionAspirin plus clopidogrel was associated with a reduction in the incidence of disability attributed to index stroke. There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of moderate to severe bleeding complications between the two antiplatelet drug regimens.Trial Registration NumberChiCTR1900025214.

Recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator (rt-PA) effectively restores neurological function and improves prognosis in acute ischemic stroke
CONCLUSION: Compared with conventional pharmacological regimens, additional rt-PA intravenous thrombolytic therapy improves the clinical outcome of patients with acute ischemic stroke, promotes neurological recovery, and enhances patient prognosis without increasing the risk of patient-related adverse events.PMID:37303683 | PMC:PMC10251022
