Standardized circuit class group training versus individualized goal-directed group training to improve upper limb function in stroke survivors during in-patient rehabilitation: a pragmatic trial
CONCLUSIONS: A standardized training could reduce the mental workload for therapists, but patients seemed less engaged. A combination of both might be most beneficial.Trial registration: Dutch Trial Register: NL8844 and NL9471IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATIONProviding a standardized training program after stroke reduces therapists' mental workload.Individualized goal-directed group training results in the best achievement of rehabilitation goals.A combination of standardized and individual training would use best of both intervention modalities.Patients should be involved in the co-creation developing process of training pro...

P089/268 Safety and efficacy of the fourth-generation Acandis Acclino Flex Plus stent in managing complex intracranial aneurysms
ConclusionThe AFP stent demonstrated feasibility and favourable safety and efficacy in the treatment of complex aneurysms. These results support its clinical use and highlight the need for further studies to evaluate its performance in different aneurysm subsets and to determine its specific role in the endovascular treatment of aneurysms.Disclosure of InterestCK serves as consultants for Acandis GmbH (Pforzheim, Germany) and proctor for MicroVention Inc./Sequent Medical (Aliso Viejo, CA, USA).

P090/269 Comparative analysis between a second-generation (acandis acclino) and a first-generation (enterprise) stent system
ConclusionAdvanced stents offer reduced thromboembolic risk and comparable aneurysm occlusion to first-generation stents due to their flexible design and surface modification. These results support the clinical use of advanced stent systems, but further comparative studies are needed to conclusively evaluate the efficacy of stent-assisted coiling with the Acclino stent and other systems.Disclosure of InterestCK serves as consultants for Acandis GmbH (Pforzheim, Germany) and proctor for MicroVention Inc./Sequent Medical (Aliso Viejo, CA, USA).

Mixtures of long-term exposure to ambient air pollution, built environment and temperature and stroke incidence across Europe
CONCLUSIONS: We observed increased HRs for stroke with exposure to PM2.5, NO2 and BC, lower levels of greenness and higher impervious surface in single and combined exposure models.PMID:37598594 | DOI:10.1016/j.envint.2023.108136

Screening over 100 000 patients in 39 general practices in the Netherlands for anticoagulation underprescription in atrial fibrillation: a descriptive, cross-sectional study
Conclusions In this large Dutch study among GPs, we observed 9.8% underprescription of OAC in AF patients. In 76% of the AF patients lacking a prescription for OAC, no documentation for deviating from the guidelines was found. Only in a minority of cases detection of OAC underprescription lead to OAC initiation.

Interventions for the uptake of evidence-based recommendations in acute stroke settings
CONCLUSIONS: We are uncertain whether a multifaceted implementation intervention compared to no intervention improves adherence to evidence-based recommendations in acute stroke settings, because the certainty of evidence is very low.PMID:37565934 | PMC:PMC10416310 | DOI:10.1002/14651858.CD012520.pub2

Towards the implementation of optimal cardiac magnetic resonance risk stratification in PAH
Chest. 2023 Jul 30:S0012-3692(23)01066-8. doi: 10.1016/j.chest.2023.07.028. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTBACKGROUND: The 2022 European pulmonary hypertension (PH) guidelines incorporate cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging metrics in the risk stratification of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) patients. Thresholds to identify patients at estimated 1-year mortality risks of <5%, 5-20% and >20% are introduced. However, these cut-off values are mostly single center based and require external validation.RESEARCH QUESTIONS: What are the discriminative prognostic properties of the current cardiac magnetic resonanc...

Simulation modelling to study the impact of adding comprehensive stroke centres. Can we deliver endovascular thrombectomy sooner?
Conclusions This study suggests that adding one or two CSCs in the north of the Netherlands would have modest impact. Improving workflow efficiencies seems to be more potent when aiming to improve existing acute stroke care systems.

A Smartphone-Delivered Program (Anathema) to Promote the Sexual Health of Older Adults, Colorectal Cancer Survivors, and Stroke Survivors: Protocol for a Feasibility Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial
CONCLUSIONS: The study results will inform the refinement and scale-up of Anathema. Anathema's wider-scale implementation can potentially promote the sexual health of largely neglected user groups such as older adults, colorectal cancer survivors, and stroke survivors.INTERNATIONAL REGISTERED REPORT IDENTIFIER (IRRID): DERR1-10.2196/46734.PMID:37368469 | DOI:10.2196/46734

Mechanical thrombectomy is cost-effective versus medical management alone around Europe in patients with low ASPECTS
Conclusions MT is efficient versus MM alone for patients with low ASPECTS in eight countries across Europe. Patients with a large ischemic core could be treated with MT because it is both clinically beneficial and economically sustainable.
