Changing the stroke network during pandemic scenarios does not affect the management of patients with a positive Cincinnati prehospital stroke scale
ConclusionsThe pandemic forced changes in the clinical mission of many hospitals by reducing the number of stroke units. Despite this, the organization of the emergency system allowed to identify strategic hospitals and thus avoid excessive transport time. The result was an adequate time for fibrinolysis/thrombectomy, in agreement with the guidelines. Coordinated management in emergency situations makes it possible to maintain service quality standards, despite the unfavorable scenario.

Anticholinergic Burden and Cognitive Impairment in Nursing Homes: A Comparison of Four Anticholinergic Scales
ConclusionsThe cumulative effect of medications with modest antimuscarinic activity may influence the cognitive performance of NH residents. The anticholinergic burden measured with the ACB scale should help identify NH residents who may benefit from reducing the anticholinergic burden.A clear direct relationship between anticholinergic burden and cognitive impairment was found only for the ACB Scale.

Trunk Control Test as a main predictor of the modified Barthel Index score at discharge from intensive post-acute stroke rehabilitation: results from a multicentre Italian study
Despite advances in acute cerebrovascular disease treatment, stroke remains a catastrophic event causing a major public health burden, counting about 5 million deaths each year and 50% of persons surviving with chronic disability1. Intensive rehabilitation is recommended in patients with stroke in the post-acute phase2. Identifying early predictors of rehabilitation outcomes may provide support to clinical decision-making by determining patients at higher risk of low functional recovery for which targeted strategies may be implemented.

Safety of JAK inhibitors: a real-life multicenter retrospective cohort study
CONCLUSION: Our real-life data confirm that JAKi are effective and carry a low risk of AESI, especially in patients that do not display cardiovascular risk factors at baseline. Our study could not identify differences between molecules and different profiles should be defined in larger prospective cohorts.PMID:37527867 | DOI:10.3899/jrheum.2023-0145
