Atherosclerosis Unplugged: Potential Mechanisms Leading to the Clinical Manifestation of Stroke Caused by Cigarette Smoking
We thank Ding for a comprehensive summary of the possible mechanisms by which cigarette smoke may interact with the underlying pathophysiology of atherosclerosis. These possible mechanisms may explain the clinical impact of smoking on cerebrovascular disease. The presumed role of atherosclerosis in stroke is evident, but the mechanism by which this occurs is not well known. Ding identifies cigarette smoke most likely exacerbates vascular inflammation, thereby accelerating the destabilization of atherosclerotic lesions. He provides possible pathways by which cigarette smoking contributes to atherogenesis resulting in the cl...

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.

Phosphodiesterase-5 Inhibitor PF-03049423 Effect on Stroke Recovery: A Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Randomized Clinical Trial
The therapeutic potential of phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitor PF-03049423 was evaluated in a phase 2, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of subjects with acute ischemic stroke (Clinical Trial Registration Information: http://www.clinicaltrials.gov, unique identifier: NCT01208233; http://www.clinicaltrialsregister.eu, EudraCT number: 2010-021414-32).

Medical Mobile Applications for Stroke Survivors and Caregivers
Recent studies estimate nearly half of the US population can access mobile medical applications (apps) on their smartphones. The are no systematic data available on apps focused on stroke survivors/caregivers.

Endovascular thrombectomy with or without intravenous thrombolysis in acute basilar artery occlusion ischemic stroke: A meta-analysis
It is poorly understood if endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) with or without intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) better facilitates clinical outcomes in patients with acute basilar artery occlusion (BAO) ischemic stroke.

Geotopographic and Environmental Characteristics of Communities and the Seasonality of Stroke Occurrences
We read with great interest the study by Takizawa et al that was recently published in the Journal of Stroke and Cerebrovascular Diseases describing seasonality in the occurrence of stroke in Japan. The authors analyzed 35,631 registered stroke cases (29,238 ischemic and 6,393 hypertensive hemorrhagic stroke patients) occurring between 1998 and 2007 from the Japanese Standard Stroke Registry Study (JSSRS) database, which is currently the world’s largest hospital-based stroke database, accumulating records from 163 Japanese institutions throughout Japan. To examine seasonal variation in the incidence of ischemic and noni...

Body Mass Index and Stroke: Overweight and Obesity Less Often Associated with Stroke Recurrence
Background: Although obesity is associated with excess mortality and morbidity, mortality is lower in obese than in normal weight stroke patients (the obesity paradox). Studies now indicate that obesity is not associated with increased risk of recurrent stroke in the years after first stroke. We studied the association between body mass index (BMI) and stroke patient's risk of having a history of previous stroke (recurrent stroke).Methods: A registry designed to collect data on all hospitalized stroke patients in Denmark 2000-2010 includes 61,872 acute stroke patients with information on BMI in 38,506. Data include age, se...

Stroke Literacy, Behavior, and Proficiency in a South Florida Population
Conclusions: Stroke behavior and stroke proficiency are useful novel concepts in stroke epidemiology. Although our South Florida community is relatively well-educated and affluent, there are tangible gaps in knowledge, attitudes, and behavior as it pertains to stroke, similar to that seen in less advantaged populations. We recommend intensified usage of the media with information provided by qualified health professionals in a variety of formats and languages appropriate to the ethnic and cultural diversities that define this population.

Imaging Negative Stroke: Diagnoses and Outcomes in Intravenous Tissue Plasminogen Activator–Treated Patients
Conclusions: Because most INS patients were found to have NNCI, which may represent either transient ischemic attack or aborted stroke, and there were no intracerebral hemorrhages in the INS group, our data support the safety of administering IV t-PA to all patients in whom acute ischemic stroke is clinically suspected. We have demonstrated that NNCI patients and stroke mimics are common, and future larger scale prospective studies are required to delineate the true frequencies of each and to evaluate differences in outcomes.
