Post-stroke depression: different characteristics based on follow-up stage and gender-a cohort perspective study from Mainland China.
CONCLUSION: PSD is common in stroke survivors, and female patients have higher prevalence of PSD. Risk factors for PSD in the acute phase are different from that in the chronic phase of stroke. Female gender is an independent risk factor for PSD in the acute stage of stroke. Smoking, frontal lobe lesion, and living alone are predictive factors for PSD in the chronic stage of stroke. NIHSS score is a risk factor for PSD both in the acute and in the chronic stage of stroke. Further studies are needed to understand the mechanisms underlying the elevated prevalence of PSD in female.

Family history of stroke and death or vascular events within one year after ischemic stroke.
CONCLUSION: This study suggests that maternal stroke history, age<55 years at stroke onset and thrombotic stroke in the patients with a family history are associated with poor outcomes after stroke. Further studies from other samples are needed to replicate our findings due to a reason for excluding some severe stroke patients in this study.

Stroke recurrence among 30 days survivors of ischemic stroke in a prospective community-based study.
Authors: Ryglewicz D, Baranska-Gieruszczak M, Czlonkowska A, Lechowicz W, Hier D
Abstract
A cohort of 209 patients (105 men and 104 women), who survived 30 days after "first ever-in-lifetime ischemic stroke' were followed for one year. Predictors ofsurvival were examined by log-rank test and Cox proportional hazards method. Twenty-four patients had a stroke recurr~nce (11.4%). Thirteen of the patients with recurrent stroke (54%) died because of the sequelae of the second stroke. Stroke recurred in 16% of patients with stoke due to atherosclerosis, in 12.5% of patients with cardioembolic stroke, and in 4.4% of patie...

Validation of the Essen Stroke Risk Score in different subtypes of ischemic stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: In patients with LAA subtype of non-atrial fibrillation stroke, the ESRS has moderate accuracy in stratifying the risk of both recurrent strokes and major vascular events within the first year. However, the ESRS couldn't accurately stratify the risk of recurrent strokes in patients with small-artery atherosclerosis subtype of non-atrial fibrillation stroke.

One-year outcomes and secondary prevention in patients after acute minor stroke: results from the China National Stroke Registry.
CONCLUSIONS: Outcomes in individuals in China who had experienced acute minor stroke were unfavorable, underscoring the importance of early, sustained preventive therapy in this patient population. Combination of secondary prevention medication classes was associated with a lower risk of death.

Association of higher waist circumference with milder stroke severity in acute ischaemic stroke.
DISCUSSION: Higher WC at admission is associated with milder baseline stroke severity among patients with acute ischaemic stroke.
ABBREVIATIONS: BMI: body mass index; CE: cardioembolism; CI: confidence interval; LAA: large-artery atherosclerosis; NIHSS: National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale; OR: odds ratio; SAO: small-artery occlusion; WC: waist circumference.

Comparison of carotid atherosclerotic plaque characteristics between patients with first-time and recurrent acute ischaemic stroke using B-mode ultrasound.
CONCLUSION: Stroke recurrence is related to advanced atherosclerosis defined by carotid plaque and its characteristics.

Utility of < em > China < /em > -PAR stroke equations for predicting 10-year stroke risk in the rural Inner Mongolian population in China
CONCLUSION: The China-PAR stroke equations have potential predictive ability for 10-year stroke risk in the rural Inner Mongolian women, while it might not suit the rural Inner Mongolian men well. The performance of China-PAR stroke equations in other ethnic groups in China will need to be further evaluated.PMID:35758218 | DOI:10.1080/01616412.2022.2089833

Statin treatment before stroke reduces pro-inflammatory cytokine levels after stroke.
CONCLUSION: Stroke induces changes in the RhoA-ROCK pathway in T-cells. CRP and NIHSS score correlated positively in the study. Statins may have an anti-inflammatory effect as statin treatment before stroke reduces post-stroke pro-inflammatory levels. RhoA GTPase and its downstream effectors are possibly the key to improve statin treatment in stroke.

An analysis of the risk of perioperative ischemic stroke in patients undergoing non-cardiovascular and non-neurological surgeries.
Conclusions: History of stroke and smoking, renal insufficiency, and low HDL-C are independent risk factors for PIS. It is feasible to assess the risk of stroke in preoperative patients using PCE in clinical practice.

Circulating granulocyte colony-stimulating factor and functional outcome after ischemic stroke: an observational study
Discussion: Early post-stroke S-GCSF is increased in severe IS and associated with 3-month poor functional outcomes. The change in S-GCSF and the 3-month S-GCSF appear to be less-important, and S-GCSF likely reflects inflammation in large infarctions.PMID:34253146 | DOI:10.1080/01616412.2021.1948766
