Dietary Patterns Are Associated With Incident Stroke and Contribute to Excess Risk of Stroke in Black Americans Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— These data suggest that adherence to a Southern style diet may increase the risk of stroke, whereas adherence to a more plant-based diet may reduce stroke risk. Given the consistency of finding a dietary effect on stroke risk across studies, discussing nutrition patterns during risk screening may be an important step in reducing stroke.

Australian Public's Awareness of Stroke Warning Signs Improves After National Multimedia Campaigns Brief Reports
Conclusions— The Australian public’s awareness of stroke warning signs has improved since commencement of the NSF campaigns commensurate with greater awareness of stroke advertising. Public education efforts are worthwhile, and future efforts should focus on groups identified with low awareness or those at high risk of stroke.

Does Socioeconomic Status or Acculturation Modify the Association Between Ethnicity and Hypertension Treatment Before Stroke? Brief Reports
Conclusions— We found no evidence that socioeconomic status or acculturation modifies the association between ethnicity and hypertension treatment before stroke.

Brain Imaging and Cognitive Predictors of Stroke and Alzheimer Disease in the Framingham Heart Study Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— Specific patterns of cognitive and brain structural measures observed even in early aging predict stroke risk and may serve as biomarkers for risk prediction.

Effects of Intensive and Moderate Public Education on Knowledge of Early Stroke Symptoms Among a Japanese Population: The Acquisition of Stroke Knowledge Study Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— Our findings suggest that frequent distribution of leaflets and booklets significantly improved the short-term knowledge of community residents about early symptoms of stroke.

Ideal Cardiovascular Health Metrics and the Risks of Ischemic and Intracerebral Hemorrhagic Stroke Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— We observed a clear inverse gradient relationship between the number of ideal CVH metrics and the risk of stroke in a Chinese population, supporting the importance of ideal health behaviors and factors in stroke prevention.

Disparities in Evaluation at Certified Primary Stroke Centers: Reasons for Geographic And Racial Differences in Stroke Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— Disparities in evaluation by PSCs are predominately related to geographic factors but not to race, education, or low income. Despite an increased burden of cerebrovascular disease in the Stroke Belt, subjects there were less likely to be evaluated at certified hospitals.

Cardiovascular Risk Profile and Cognitive Function in Young, Middle-Aged, and Elderly Subjects Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— In this large population–based cohort, a worse overall cardiovascular risk profile was associated with poorer cognitive function. This association was already present in young adults aged 35 to 44 years.

Self-Report of Stroke, Transient Ischemic Attack, or Stroke Symptoms and Risk of Future Stroke in the Reasons for Geographic And Racial Differences in Stroke (REGARDS) Study Original Contributions
Conclusions— Results suggest a spectrum of risk from stroke symptoms to TIA, DS, and RS, and imply a need for establishing these categories in health screenings to manage risk for future stroke, reinforcing the clinical importance of stroke history including the presence of stroke symptoms.
