Effective Education Materials to Advance Stroke Awareness Without Teacher Participation in Junior High School Students
Youth stroke education is promising for the spread of stroke awareness. The aim of this study was to examine whether our stroke awareness teaching materials without teacher's participation can increase student awareness to act fast on suspected stroke signs.

Quality Improvement Project: Improving the Time To Treatment in Inpatient Acute Ischemic Stroke (P7.130)
Conclusion/Proposal: In the inpatient setting there was a significant delay in the time to CT-scan and to t-PA; the main source of delay was time to CT-scan. There are many possible reasons for the delay: location of the CT-scanner, unfamiliarity with strokes by non-neurology staff, ready availability of t-PA. We proposed to target house staff education and t-PA availability. We developed a "stroke-code" checklist to be distributed to house staff from different services after a small explanatory lecture. We also developed an order form to create a zero wait time for t-PA, allowing the RN/PCA to be the first one served in t...

Awareness of Stroke Risk Factors and Warning Signs in Nigerian Adolescents Compared with Adults
Stroke, a significant health problem affecting adults, is increasing among younger age groups, particularly because of changing lifestyles. The aim of the study was to compare the awareness of stroke risk factors and warning signs among students and teachers in selected secondary schools in Osun State, Nigeria.

Stroke Dysbiosis Index (SDI) in Gut Microbiome Are Associated With Brain Injury and Prognosis of Stroke
Conclusions: We developed an index to measure gut microbiota dysbiosis in stroke patients; this index was significantly correlated with patients' outcome and was causally related to outcome in a mouse model of stroke. Our model facilitates the potential clinical application of gut microbiota data in stroke and adds quantitative evidence linking the gut microbiota to stroke.
Introduction
Ischemic stroke imposes a heavy burden on society, with 24.9 million cases worldwide (1). Although intravenous thrombolysis and endovascular treatment greatly improve some patients' prognosis, the prognosis for most pa...

Influence of Sex on Stroke Prognosis: A Demographic, Clinical, and Molecular Analysis
Conclusion
Our data suggest that women who suffer from IS present with a poorer functional outcome than men at 3-months, regardless of other preclinical and clinical factors during the acute phase. These relationships seem to be mediated by atrial dysfunction and inflammation. The inflammatory response is slightly higher in women; however, there are no sex differences in their functional behavior. There is a probable relationship between the molecular marker of atrial dysfunction NT-proBNP and worse functional outcome in women, and the connection seems to be more important in cardioembolic stroke patients.
In patients wi...

UCLA, USC get $2M to develop stroke center network in Southland
Stroke is the second leading cause of death in Los Angeles County and the fourth in the U.S. In order to cut those numbers, it's imperative that new treatments be developed and refined for stroke prevention, acute therapy and recovery after stroke.
Now, a three-way partnership between the UCLA Stroke Center at Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center, the USC Comprehensive Stroke and Cerebrovascular Center at Keck Medicine of USC, and UC Irvine has been awarded a $2 million grant from the National Institutes of Health to address these three stroke priorities.
Together, the three universities will form the Los A...

Researcher Studies Statins for Stroke Therapy
Stacy Pigott
A $2.8 million grant may help develop an improved therapeutic treatment for acute ischemic stroke patients to let them recover faster with fewer long-term complications. The protocol hinges on effectively delivering statins to the brain, where their neuroprotective properties can help save tissue damaged by stroke.

Elevated Levels of CD64 MFI on Monocyte Subsets Are Associated with a History of Stroke in Sickle Cell Disease
Conclusion: Levels of monocyte subsets have been shown to correlate with clinical outcomes in non-SCD stroke, but to our knowledge this is the first study to examine their roles in ischemic stroke in SCD. The pathophysiology of stroke in SCD is unique and the role of monocytes in it deserves separate study from the role of monocytes in non-SCD stroke. We saw that while monocyte subsets were associated with a history of ischemic stroke, CD64 MFI on all monocyte subsets showed a strong association. We wonder if this may be due to CD64 MFI being a marker for cells which are more adherent to endothelium as has been shown in pr...

Assessment of Stroke Knowledge and Attitudes among Riyadh Medical Students: A Cross-sectional Study (P2.303)
CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrated average medical students’ knowledge of stroke and identified knowledge gaps in different domains of basic stroke knowledge. Stroke education modules should be incorporated into the preclinical curriculum and neurology or stroke clerkships should be mandatory for all students. Emphasizing the high risk of stroke recurrence in patients with minor or transient symptoms is crucial for decreasing the burden of stroke.Disclosure: Dr. Al Zwahmah has received personal compensation in an editorial capacity for Neurosciences Journal.

Status epilepticus mimicking stroke recurrence.
CONCLUSION: Status epilepticus is not infrequent in patients with previous stroke and may present with negative neurological symptoms, thus mimicking a stroke recurrence. EEG should be considered as a potential diagnostic tool in the acute stroke setting, at least in patients with previous stroke. This article is part of the Special Issue "Seizures & Stroke".

O-034 Women with large vessel occlusion acute ischemic stroke are less likely to be routed to comprehensive stroke centers
ConclusionsLVO patients who presented to PSCs were less likely to receive EVT than patients directly presenting to a CSC. Anterior circulation LVOs were more likely to be transferred for EVT evaluation. Despite a higher NIHSS, and similar other baseline characteristics, female patients were less likely to be routed to a CSC.Disclosures M. Tariq: None. S. Salazar-Marioni: None. S. Khose: None. L.

Passed without a stroke: A UK mixed method study exploring student nurses' knowledge of stroke
Conclusions: All nursing students should have experience of being in contact with people who have had a stroke — and at present this does not always happen. A national intervention study is now suggested with a view to providing stroke education which is proportionate to its significance as a major health issue.Relevance to Clinical Practice: Nurses draw upon their fundamental clinical skills to care and treat patients who have survived a stroke. Additionally, stroke survivors also require enhanced knowledge and this is recognised in the growth of specialist stroke nurses. Improving stroke mortality and morbidity is the ...
