Clustering of cardiovascular risk factors and stroke: a prospective cohort study in Inner Mongolia.
CONCLUSION: The clustering of CVRFs increased the risk of stroke. On the basis of FHCVD, the clustering of hypertension with other CVRFs and the clustering of diabetes with tachycardia had higher predictive value for stroke than other cluster. PMID: 27730847 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Increased risk of post-stroke epilepsy in Chinese patients with a TRPM6 polymorphism.
CONCLUSION: The TRPM6 rs2274924 polymorphism may be associated with susceptibility to epilepsy following stroke, and the C allele may be associated with increased risk of post-stroke epilepsy. The TRPM6 rs2274924 polymorphism may also influence serum levels of Mg2+ in post-stroke epilepsy patients. PMID: 30739590 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Does the nutritional status of acute stroke patients affect the neurological status in the early post-stroke period?
Authors: Wierzbicki K, Horyniecki M, Mamak D, Szopa M, Buchała J, Stawarz G, Florek S, Adamczyk-Sowa M Abstract According to recent reports, malnutrition may be associated with a worse prognosis in stroke patients. The aim of this study was to determine the nutritional status of stroke patients and its impact on neurological and functional status of patients in the early post-stroke period. Our prospective study included a total of 128 patients admitted to the Stroke Unit. The assessment was made in the patients within the first week after the onset of stroke symptoms. Groups of patients with abnormal body mass in...

Inflammatory biomarkers and risk of ischemic stroke and subtypes: A 2-sample Mendelian randomization study.
Conclusions: Our study did not find convincing evidence to support that inflammatory biomarkers like IL-1Ra, sIL-6R and CRP are causally associated with the risk of ischemic stroke or its subtypes. PMID: 31900081 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Assessment of the manifestations of atrial fibrillation in patients with acute cerebral stroke - a single-center study based on 998 patients.
Discussion: The above data should prompt neurologists, cardiologists and family doctors to try to detect AF as a risk factor for ischemic stroke which worsens patient prognosis, prolongs hospital stay and contributes to increase in mortality, especially when more effective drug treatment is currently possible.

Remote ischemic conditioning with exercise (RICE) promotes functional rehabilitation following ischemic stroke
Conclusions: RICE, a novel therapy that supplements RIC prior to exercise, is superiorly effective in inducing rehabilitation after stroke as compared to the traditional exercise monotherapy rehabilitation in rats with ischemic brain injury.PMID:34151756 | DOI:10.1080/01616412.2021.1939489

Prevalence and factors influencing the occurrence of spasticity in stroke patients: a retrospective study
CONCLUSION: Most stroke patients do not have spasticity, especially the elderly, patients with ischemic stroke, and those with mild functional impairment, suggesting that not all upper motor nerve injuries lead to increased muscle tension. For young individuals, patients with hemorrhagic stroke, and those with moderate to severe functional impairment, close follow-up is necessary to identify the occurrence of spasticity early on and then formulate corresponding rehabilitation strategies for prompt intervention.PMID:36153827 | DOI:10.1080/01616412.2022.2127249

A new instrument to assess physical function in stroke patients: the Dubousset function test and its validity, reliability, responsiveness
CONCLUSION: The DFT has excellent reliability and validity in post-stroke patients. Therefore, it may be a clinically suitable test for detecting balance and physical function.PMID:37733422 | DOI:10.1080/01616412.2023.2257439

Preexisting dual antiplatelet treatment increases the risk of post-thrombolysis intracranial hemorrhage in Chinese stroke patients.
DISCUSSION: The risk of developing sICH is low when thrombolysis is given to patients who are on ASA alone. However, there is potential increased risk of sICH if a patient is on dual AP treatment. PMID: 24861494 [PubMed - in process]

Primary stroke prevention in China - a new approach.
Authors: Feigin VL, Wang W, Fu H, Liu L, Krishnamurthi R, Bhattacharjee R, Parmar P, Hussein T, Barker-Collo S Abstract The growing burden of stroke in China, along with the increasing cost of health care calls for new, more effective strategies for stroke prevention. These strategies should include increasing awareness of stroke symptoms, awareness of risk factors, and provision of easily available information on means of modifying risk factors. The Stroke Riskometer App is exactly such a tool, available in Mandarin, for adult individuals to calculate their risk of stroke over the next 5 and 10 years, and to ide...

Antithrombotic therapy for ischaemic stroke patients with AF/RHD in West China daily practice.
CONCLUSION: Our study suggests that overall real-world use of warfarin in IS patients with AF and/or RHD is low before and after admission in West China. Implementation study on this respect should be conducted in this area to improve the daily practice. PMID: 26178783 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

A comparison of risk factors and prognosis between intra and extracranial acute atherosclerotic stroke in the Turkish population: a prospective study.
CONCLUSIONS: The prevalence of risk factors differs between ICAS and ECAS, and their influence differs for stroke severity and prognosis. PMID: 27477568 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Risk factors between intracranial-extracranial atherosclerosis and anterior-posterior circulation stroke in ischaemic stroke.
CONCLUSION: Risk factors are different between ICAS and ECAS, ACS and PCS, and ICAS/ECAS with ACS/PCS. Thus, targeted strategies are needed to consider these differences to prevent, treat and manage these diseases. PMID: 27796172 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
