Safety and efficacy of intensive vs. guideline antiplatelet therapy in high‐risk patients with recent ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack: rationale and design of the Triple Antiplatelets for Reducing Dependency after Ischaemic Stroke (TARDIS) trial (ISRCTN47823388)
DiscussionThe trial has recruited more than 50% of its target sample size (latest number: 2399) and is running in 104 sites in 4 countries. One‐third of patients presented with a transient ischemic attack.

Rationale and design of the PreventIon of CArdiovascular events in iSchemic Stroke patients with high risk of cerebral hemOrrhage (PICASSO) study: A randomized controlled trial
DiscussionPreventIon of CArdiovascular events in iSchemic Stroke patients with high risk of cerebral hemOrrhage is the largest secondary stroke prevention trial for informing antiplatelet therapy and lipid management in patients at high risk of haemorrhagic stroke.

Targeting aspirin in acute disabling ischemic stroke: an individual patient data meta‐analysis of three large randomized trials
ConclusionsUsing simple clinical variables to target aspirin to patients after acute disabling stroke by risk of thrombosis, haemorrhage or poor functional outcome does not lead to greater net clinical benefit. We suggest future risk stratification schemes include new risk factors for thrombosis and intracranial haemorrhage.

Stroke in Bahrain: rising incidence, multiple risk factors, and suboptimal care
The incidence of stroke in Bahrain is rising in the Bahraini population and has nearly doubled over the last 16 years, while the incidence in the non‐Bahraini population has not changed. Incidence of stroke in the Bahraini population (110/100 000) is now much greater than in the non‐Bahraini population (27/100 000). The Bahraini stroke population is 10 years younger than Western comparators with a much higher prevalence of many of the risk factors for stroke, including diabetes (54%), hypertension (75%) and hyperlipidemia (34%). The combination of an ageing Bahraini population alongside a high prevalence of risk fa...

Cilostazol research in Asia: can it be applied to European and American patients?
Cilostazol is an antiplatelet drug often used in Asian countries like Korea, Japan, and China. However, it is rarely used in the west. Cilostazol inhibits phosphodiesterase, increases cyclic AMP concentrations, and consequently inhibits platelet aggregation. Interestingly, it also has vasodilatory activity, inhibits vascular smooth muscle proliferation, and protects the endothelium. Studies in Asia have shown that cilostazol is effective in the secondary prevention of stroke. Moreover, it is significantly less likely to cause bleeding complications than aspirin. Additional trials have shown that cilostazol is effective in ...

Statistical analysis plan for the ‘Triple Antiplatelets for Reducing Dependency after Ischaemic Stroke’ (TARDIS) trial
DiscussionThis paper and attachment describe the trial's statistical analysis plan, as developed from the protocol during recruitment and prior to unblinding of data. The statistical analysis plan contains design and methods for analyses, and unpopulated tables and figures for the primary and baseline publications. The data from the trial will provide the first large‐scale randomized evidence for the use of intensive antiplatelet therapy for preventing recurrence after acute stroke and transient ischemic attack.

Protocol for Cilostazol Stroke Prevention Study for Antiplatelet Combination (CSPS.com): a randomized, open‐label, parallel‐group trial
DiscussionThe CSPS.com is expected to provide evidence indicating whether secondary IS prevention in high‐risk patients can be improved by using DAPT involving cilostazol.

Effect of addition of clopidogrel to aspirin on subdural hematoma: meta‐analysis of randomized clinical trials
ConclusionsThe absolute rate of subdural hematoma during dual antiplatelet therapy is low, averaging 1·1 per 1000 patient‐years. Chronic treatment with clopidogrel plus aspirin significantly increases the risk of subdural hematoma compared with aspirin alone.

The efficacy and safety of cilostazol in ischemic stroke patients with peripheral arterial disease (SPAD): protocol of a randomized, double‐blind, placebo‐controlled multicenter trial
ConclusionThe SPAD trial is the first study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of dual antiplatelet agents, aspirin plus cilostazol, in comparison with aspirin alone in patients with both ischemic stroke or TIA and PAD. Results from this trial will provide important information on the merit of adding cilostazol to aspirin for slowing down progression of atherosclerosis in patients with ischemic stroke and PAD.

Differences in ischemic and hemorrhagic recurrence rates among race‐ethnic groups in the PRoFESS secondary stroke prevention trial
ConclusionsWe found a significant difference in myocardial infarction and symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage recurrence among different race‐ethnic groups. The risk of recurrent ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke was greater in Asians with high blood pressure.
