Stroke risk and outcomes in epilepsy patients: Two retrospective cohort studies based on National Health Insurance in Taiwan
The risk of stroke in epileptic patients and the impact of epilepsy history on stroke patients ’ outcome have not been studied completely. Our purpose is to evaluate whether patients with epilepsy have increased risk of stroke or post-stroke mortality.

Gender differences in the association of syndecan-4 with myocardial infarction: The population-based Troms ø Study
Cardiovascular disease is a common cause of morbidity and mortality, with gender differences in pathophysiology. The endothelial glycocalyx maintains vascular integrity, and glycocalyx shedding reflects endothelial dysfunction and early atherosclerosis. Syndecan-1 and -4 are components of the glycocalyx, and increased serum levels indicate glycocalyx damage. We hypothesised that increased serum syndecan-1 and -4 were independently associated with myocardial infarction (MI), ischaemic stroke and all-cause mortality in men and women from a general population.

Incretin drugs as modulators of atherosclerosis
Atherosclerosis is a major underlying cause of ischemic heart diseases, ischemic stroke, and peripheral artery disease. Atherosclerotic plaque progression is characterized by chronic progressive inflammation of the arterial wall, endothelial cell dysfunction, and subendothelial lipoprotein retention. Incretin drugs, glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) agonists, and dipeptidyl peptidase-IV (DPP-IV) inhibitors, are promising anti-hyperglycemic agents used for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).

The association of adjusted Global AntiphosPholipid Syndrome Score (aGAPSS) with cardiovascular disease in subjects with antiphospholipid antibodies
Cardiovascular disease (CVD), including coronary artery disease and stroke/peripheral artery disease, is less commonly reported than venous thromboembolism in subjects with antiphospholipid antibodies (aPLs) and little is known about the association of CVD with adjusted Global AntiphosPholipid Syndrome Score (aGAPSS).

Discontinuing or continuing statin following intracerebral hemorrhage from the view of a national cohort study
Statins improve clinical outcomes in patients with ischemic stroke but there is no evidence of the effect of continuing long-term statin therapy in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of continuing statin after ICH.

Treatment of atherosclerosis by traditional Chinese medicine: Questions and quandaries
Atherosclerosis and its complications, such as myocardial infarction and stroke, are the major causes of morbidity and mortality, and development of effective therapeutics for both prevention and treatment of this disease is critically important. Currently, there are many drugs available for atherosclerotic disease, but the lipid-lowering drugs statins are still the first-choice for treatment of hypercholesterolemia, a major risk factor for atherosclerosis. On the other hand, traditional Chinese medicines, mainly Chinese herbal medicines (CHM), have been widely used in China and in other Asian countries for the treatment o...

Risk of posterior circulation stroke in patients with cervical spondylosis: A nationwide, population-based study
Cervical spondylosis (CS) is reported to be associated with vertebrobasilar insufficiency. However, few cohort studies have investigated the association between CS and posterior circulation ischemic stroke.

EPA and DHA in adipose tissue and the risk of ischemic stroke -a Danish case-cohort study
Aim: We investigated the major marine n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) in adipose tissue (a biomarker of their long-term endogeneous exposure) in relation to the risk of ischemic stroke.

Effect of intravenous HDL- loaded microbubbles administration on ultrasound- guided pulsed- high intensity focused ultrasound- mediated histotripsy of carotid artery advanced atherosclerotic plaque
In this study, we developed an experimental pulsed- high intensity focused ultrasound (750 KHz, 40 W/Cm2 , 38 Hz), and investigated its effectiveness on advanced atherosclerotic plaque regression, wherein diagnostic B- mode ultrasound is combined with focused ultrasound, with a goal of increased safety.

Detection of Fabry disease in patients with premature cardiovascular disease
Aim: Fabry disease (FD) is an X-linked hereditary disorder due to mutations in alpha-galactosidase A ( α-Gal A) that leads to an accumulation of globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) in lysosomes. FD real incidence is unknown and varies between 1/40000 men with the classic phenotype and 1/3000 newborn is screening programmes. It is a multisystemic disease and the cardiovascular damage is a frequent cause of p remature death. The most of the deaths are due to stroke or hypertrophic miocardiopathy but, atherosclerotic lesions have been well described.
