Cilostazol for the Prevention of Acute Progressing Stroke: A Multicenter, Randomized Controlled Trial
Conclusions: Cilostazol failed to show a preventive effect against acute progressing stroke. However, the tendency to reduce progressing stroke and the results of stratified analyses may encourage additional studies to clarify the effect of cilostazol in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke.

Quality of Acute Ischemic Stroke Care in Thailand: A Prospective Multicenter Countrywide Cohort Study
Conclusions: Limited access to acute ischemic stroke care interventions were observed in many domains especially thrombolysis and stroke unit admission. These findings emphasize an urgent need for strategies to improve standard acute stroke care among developing countries.

Stroke Incidence and Usage Rate of Thrombolysis in A Japanese Urban City: The Kurashiki Stroke Registry
Conclusion: In this urban Japanese city, the age-adjusted incidence of first-ever stroke between March 2009 and February 2010 was 60.7 per 100,000 residents, which was relatively low compared with findings for other countries. Thrombolysis was given to approximately 5% of patients with acute ischemic stroke.

Effects of Sex Difference on Clinical Features of Acute Ischemic Stroke in Japan
Background: Sex differences in stroke characteristics and outcomes have been inconsistent. The goal of this study was to determine the influence of sex on underlying patient characteristics, stroke subtypes and conditions, and outcomes after ischemic stroke from a nationwide registration study.Methods: A total of 33,953 patients with acute ischemic stroke, including 13,323 women, were registered in a multicenter, hospital-based registration study based on a computerized database from 162 Japanese institutes (the Japan Standard Stroke Registry Study) between January 2000 and November 2007.Results: Women were significantly ...

Diffusion-weighted Imaging–Fluid Attenuated Inversion Recovery Mismatch in Nocturnal Stroke Patients with Unknown Time of Onset
Background: More than a quarter of patients with ischemic stroke (IS) are excluded from thrombolysis because of an unknown time of symptom onset. Recent evidence suggests that a mismatch between diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and fluid attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) imaging could be used as a surrogate for the time of stroke onset. We compared used the DWI–FLAIR mismatch and the FLAIR/DWI ratio to estimate the time of onset in a group of patients with nocturnal strokes and unknown time of onset.Methods: We used a prospectively collected acute IS patient database with MRI as the initial imaging modality. Nineteen...

Intravenous Thrombolysis Is Safe and Effective for the Cryptogenic Stroke in China: Data From the Thrombolysis Implementation and Monitor of Acute Ischemic Stroke in China (TIMS-China)
The intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) with recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) therapy is safe and efficient during the treatment of acute ischemic stroke. Nonetheless, the different outcomes among various stroke subgroups have limited data with regard to the safety and efficacy of cryptogenic stroke (CS). The present study compared the safety and efficacy when IVT with rt-PA was used for the treatment of CS and the other stroke subtypes.

The iScore Predicts Efficacy and Risk of Bleeding in the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke Tissue Plasminogen Activator Stroke Trial
The iScore is a validated tool to estimate outcomes after an acute ischemic stroke. A previous study showed the iScore can predict clinical response and risk of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) after administration of tissue plasminogen activator (tPA). We applied the iScore (www.sorcan.ca/iscore) to participants in the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke tPA stroke trials to evaluate its ability to estimate clinical response and risk of ICH after thrombolysis. Based on results from our previous study, patients were stratified a priori into iScore

Stroke and Heart Failure: Clinical Features, Access to Care, and Outcomes
Limited information is known regarding acute ischemic stroke (AIS) and heart failure (HF). The aim of the study was to evaluate clinical characteristics, predisposing factors, and outcomes in AIS with HF.

Academic Year-end Changeover and Stroke Outcomes
Lower quality of care and poorer outcomes are suspected when new trainees (eg, residents) start in July in teaching hospitals, the so-called “the July effect.” We evaluated outcomes and processes of care among patients with an acute ischemic stroke (AIS) admitted in July versus other 11 months of the year.

Cardiac Arrest in Acute Ischemic Stroke: Incidence, Predisposing Factors, and Clinical Outcomes
Cardiac arrest is a devastating complication of acute ischemic stroke, but little is known about its incidence and characteristics. We studied a large ischemic stroke inpatient population and compared patients with and without cardiac arrest.

External Validation of the Totaled Health Risks in Vascular Events Score to Predict Functional Outcome and Mortality in Patients Entered into the China National Stroke Registry
THRIVE (Totaled Health Risks in Vascular Events) score is a tool used to predict the functional outcome and mortality in patients with ischemic stroke at 3 months. This project aims to explore its prognostic value at 3, 6, and 12 months in Chinese stroke patients.

Baseline Feature of a Randomized Trial Assessing the Effects of Disease Management Programs for the Prevention of Recurrent Ischemic Stroke
Comprehensive and long-term patient education programs designed to improve self-management can help patients better manage their medical condition. Using disease management programs (DMPs) that were created for each of the risk factor according to clinical practice guidelines, we evaluate their influence on the prevention of stroke recurrence.
