Changes in Serum Growth Factors in Stroke Rehabilitation Patients and Their Relation to Hemiparesis Improvement
Predicting recovery from hemiparesis after stroke is important for rehabilitation. A few recent studies reported that the levels of some growth factors shortly after stroke were positively correlated with the clinical outcomes during the chronic phase. The aim of this study was to examine the relationships between the serum levels of growth factors (vascular endothelial growth factor [VEGF], insulin-like growth factor-I [IGF-I], and hepatocyte growth factor [HGF]) and improvement in hemiparesis in stroke patients who received rehabilitation in a postacute rehabilitation hospital. Subjects were 32 stroke patients (cerebral ...

Post-stroke cognitive impairment and the risk of stroke recurrence and death in patients with insulin resistance
Post-stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI) is associated with etiology, severity, and functional outcome of stroke. The risks of recurrent stroke and death in patients with PSCI and insulin resistance (IR) is unknown. The goal of this study was to determine whether global and domain-specific cognitive impairment after stroke in patients with IR was associated with recurrent stroke and death.

Decrease in Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1 and Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1 Ratio in the First Week of Stroke Is Related to Positive Outcomes
High insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), measured once during acute stroke, is associated with greater survival rates and lower stroke severity. However, information is lacking regarding how IGF-1 availability, determined by IGF-1's ratio to insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3), relates to recovery and how the response of IGF-1 during the first week of stroke relates to outcomes. The purpose of this study was to determine the following: (1) the relationship between percent change in IGF-1 and IGF-1 ratio during the first week of stroke and stroke outcomes; and (2) the difference in percent change in IGF...

Resistive Training Improves Insulin Sensitivity after Stroke
This study determined the effects of unilateral resistive training (RT) of both the paretic and nonparetic legs on insulin sensitivity in stroke survivors.Methods: We studied 10 participants (mean age 65 ± 2 years; mean body mass index 27 ± 4 kg/m2) with hemiparetic gait after remote (>6 months) ischemic stroke. All subjects underwent 1-repetition maximum (1-RM) strength testing, 9 had an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), and 7 completed a 2-hour hyperglycemic clamp (with glucose elevation targeted at 98 mg/dL above baseline fasting level) before and after 12 weeks (3×/week) of progressive, high repetition, high-i...

Longitudinal Relationship Between Intramuscular Fat in the Quadriceps and Gait Independence in Convalescent Stroke Patients
In stroke patients, secondary changes in the skeletal muscles, including decreased muscle mass and increased intramuscular fat, have been examined after stroke onset.1 These changes are greater on the paretic side than on the non-paretic side.2,3 In chronic stroke survivors, these secondary changes in skeletal muscles are associated with decreased muscle strength,4 gait independence,5 and aerobic exercise capacity.6 Furthermore, Ryan et al.2 have reported that increased intramuscular fat in stroke patients is associated with decreased insulin sensitivity.

Effect of Low-Intensity Ergometer Aerobic Training on Glucose Tolerance in Severely Impaired Nondiabetic Stroke Patients
Objective: To investigate whether low-intensity ergometer aerobic training has beneficial effect on glucose tolerance in nondiabetic patients with severely impaired stroke.Methods: Fifty-four severely impaired stroke survivors were recruited and randomly assigned to the experimental group and control group. They have no diabetes history with fasting plasma glucose less than 7 mmol/L. Both groups participated in a 6-week rehabilitation training program with low-intensity ergometer aerobic training added only in the experimental group 3 times per week. Primary outcome variables were fasting glucose, fasting insulin, 2-hour ...

Neurovascular Protection by Telmisartan via Reducing Neuroinflammation in Stroke-Resistant Spontaneously Hypertensive Rat Brain after Ischemic Stroke
We examined the effects of telmisartan on neurovascular unit (N-acetylglucosamine oligomer [NAGO], collagen IV, and glial fibrillary acidic protein [GFAP]) and neuroinflammation (matrix metalloproteinase-9 [MMP-9] and inflammasome) in brain of stroke-resistant spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR-SR). At 12 weeks of age, SHR-SR received transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAO) for 90 minutes and were divided into the following 3 groups, that is, vehicle group, low-dose telmisartan group (.3 mg/kg/d), and high-dose telmisartan group (3 mg/kg/d, postoral).

Long-term Amelioration of Telmisartan on Metabolic Syndrome-related Molecules in Stroke-resistant Spontaneously Hypertensive Rat after Transient Middle Cerebral Artery Occlusion
We examined the effects of telmisartan on metabolic syndrome-related molecules such as insulin receptor (IR), peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR-γ), and angiotensin 2 type 1 receptor (AT1R) in stroke-resistant spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR-SR) after transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAO), by administering telmisartan at either 0 (vehicle), .3 mg/kg/day (low dose), or 3 mg/kg/day (high dose), postoperatively, from 3 months of age and performed immunohistologic analysis at 6, 12, and 18 months of age.

Resistive Training and Molecular Regulators of Vascular-Metabolic Risk in Chronic Stroke
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)- γ coactivator (PGC-1α) gene and Sirtuin-1 (SIRT-1) respond to physiological stimuli and regulate insulin resistance. Inflammatory markers tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), C-reactive protein (CRP), and the soluble forms of intracellular adhesion molecule (sICAM-1) and vas cular CAM-1 (sVCAM-1) are associated with increased risk of diabetes and coronary heart disease. Resistive training (RT) reduces hyperinsulinemia and improves insulin action in chronic stroke.
