Temporal Trends in Stroke Incidence in the Young in the Framingham Study (I2.003)
Conclusions: In contrast to declining risk in older adults, the risk of incident stroke for young adults remained constant over four consecutive 10-year periods, beginning in 1968. Possible reasons for the persistently elevated risk will be explored, including genetic propensities, adverse trends in risk factor prevalence, failure to appreciate risk, and differences in stroke subtypes.

Significance of BNP for Neurological Severity in Acute Ischemic Stroke (I2.009)
CONCLUSIONS: There is a significant relationship between BNP level and the neurological severity of stroke in acute stage. A high BNP level in the acute phase increases the risk of worse stroke severity.Disclosure: Dr. Kuwashiro has nothing to disclose. Dr. Yasaka has nothing to disclose. Dr. Ito has nothing to disclose.

Predictors of Dysphagia Screening After Acute Ischemic Stroke (S31.002)
CONCLUSIONS: A significant portion of patients with acute ischemic stroke did not receive a swallowing test. Patients were more likely to receive testing if they had moderate rather than mild or severe strokes, presenting symptoms of speech deficits, weakness, or dysphagia, received thrombolytics, or were admitted to a stroke unit.Disclosure: Dr. Joundi has nothing to disclose.

Nonstenotic carotid plaque on CT angiography in patients with cryptogenic stroke
Conclusions: Large but nonstenotic carotid artery plaque is considerably more common ipsilateral than contralateral to cryptogenic stroke, suggesting that nonstenotic plaque is an underrecognized cause of stroke. We measured plaque size using CT angiography, a method that could be easily implemented in clinical practice.

Adiposity and ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke: Prospective study in women and meta-analysis
Conclusions: In UK women, higher BMI is associated with increased risk of ischemic stroke but decreased risk of hemorrhagic stroke. The totality of the available published evidence suggests that BMI-associated risks are greater for ischemic than for hemorrhagic stroke.

Role of sleep-disordered breathing and sleep-wake disturbances for stroke and stroke recovery
Conclusions: SDB and SWD increase the risk of stroke in the general population and affect short- and long-term stroke recovery and outcome. Current knowledge supports the systematic implementation of clinical procedures for the diagnosis and treatment of poststroke SDB and SWD on stroke units.

Age- and sex-specific analysis of patients with embolic stroke of undetermined source
Conclusions: Age, but not sex, is a strong predictor of stroke recurrence and death in ESUS. The risk is 3- and 8-fold higher in patients >80 years compared with those <60 years of age, respectively. The age distribution in the ongoing ESUS trials may potentially influence their power to detect a significant treatment association.

High pro-BNP levels predict the occurrence of atrial fibrillation after cryptogenic stroke
Conclusions: Pro-BNP ≥360 pg/mL increases by 5-fold the possibility of detecting AF during follow-up in patients with cryptogenic stroke.

An index to identify stroke-related vs incidental patent foramen ovale in cryptogenic stroke
Conclusion: Clinical characteristics identify CS patients who vary markedly in PFO prevalence, reflecting clinically important variation in the probability that a discovered PFO is likely to be stroke-related vs incidental. Patients in strata more likely to have stroke-related PFOs have lower recurrence risk.

Long-term predictive value of the Framingham Risk Score for Stroke in HIV-positive vs HIV-negative men
Conclusions: FRS-S prediction was systematically different in HIV+ vs HIV– men with stroke events. The FRS-S underestimates the long-term risk of stroke in HIV+ men.

Summary of evidence-based guideline update: Prevention of stroke in nonvalvular atrial fibrillation: Report of the Guideline Development Subcommittee of the American Academy of Neurology
Objective: To update the 1998 American Academy of Neurology practice parameter on stroke prevention in nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF). How often do various technologies identify previously undetected NVAF? Which therapies reduce ischemic stroke risk with the least risk of hemorrhage, including intracranial hemorrhage? The complete guideline on which this summary is based is available as an online data supplement to this article. Methods: Systematic literature review; modified Delphi process recommendation formulation. Major conclusions: In patients with recent cryptogenic stroke, cardiac rhythm monitoring probabl...

Stroke Risk Factors, Subtypes, and 30-Day Case Fatality in Abuja, Nigeria (P1.121)
CONCLUSIONS: Although hypertension, obesity, diabetes mellitus, and atrial fibrillation were important stroke risk factors, in many patients, these were detected only after a stroke. While the commonest stroke subtype was cerebral infarction, observed in almost two-third of patients, SAH was associated with the highest case-fatality rate at 30 days of 44.4%. Larger population-based studies are planned.Study Supported by: nilDisclosure: Dr. Bwala has nothing to disclose.
