Risk factors associated with recurrence of ischemic stroke after intracranial stenting in china: a case-control study
Conclusions: Recurrence of ischemic stroke after intracranial stenting may be associated with elderly age, non-smoking, and Mori C type lesion. These factors will need to be monitored in future trials of intracranial stenting.Clinical Trial Registration: URL: http://www.clinicaltrials.gov. Unique identifier: NCT01968122.PMID:34148505 | DOI:10.1080/01616412.2021.1937877

Inpatient statin use and stroke recurrence in patients with or without diabetes mellitus.
Conclusion: Inpatient statin use was associated with lower stroke recurrence in non-diabetic patients after acute ischaemic stroke, but no definite association between inpatient statin use and stroke recurrence in patients with diabetes mellitus was found.

A new physical-cognitive scale for assessment of frailty in Chinese Han elderly.
CONCLUSIONS: Our study revealed a significantly worse status in frail participants with CI than without. Our new scale shows a stronger correlation between frailty and complications than the classic phenotype. PMID: 31030646 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Low-dose rt-PA may not decrease the incidence of symptomatic intracranial haemorrhage in patients with high risk of symptomatic intracranial haemorrhage.
CONCLUSIONS: Our study suggests that low-dose intravenous rt-PA for high-risk sICH stroke in Chinese patients may not decrease the incidence of sICH, and concomitant with a poor outcome compared to standard-dose rt-PA. ABBREVIATIONS: rt-PA: recombinant tissue plasminogen activator; AIS: acute ischemic stroke; sICH: symptomatic intracranial haemorrhage. PMID: 30822264 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Predictors of mortality and recurrent stroke within five years of intracerebral hemorrhage.
Conclusion Predictors of recurrent stroke were older females, hypertension, diabetes, and brain stem hemorrhage. These findings may help to determine specific treatment strategies and improve quality of health care for such patients. PMID: 30134784 [PubMed - in process]

Association of hemoglobin glycation index with outcomes of acute ischemic stroke in type 2 diabetic patients.
Conclusion Both low HGI and high HGI was associated with an increased risk of poor prognosis in diabetic patients with ischemic stroke, compared with moderate HGI. PMID: 29560815 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

A modified Essen Stroke Risk Score for predicting recurrent ischemic stroke at one year.
Conclusions The modified ESRS increased the ability of the original ESRS to predict recurrent stroke at one year among the Chinese population. PMID: 29369004 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
