Transcranial direct current stimulation in the modulation of neuropathic pain: a systematic review.
Discussion The shortage of good quality articles, the varying of ramp-on and ramp-off durations, and number of sessions, as well as the diversity of results found did not allow any definite conclusion on the efficacy of the neuromodulating effect of tDCS on NP.

Prognosis of dolichoectasia in non-cardioembolic transient ischemic attack and minor stroke.
Conclusions Dolichoectasia was significantly associated with SAO. There was no relationship between dolichoectasia and 12-month prognosis of patients with non-cardioembolic TIA or minor stroke.

Effects of different frequencies of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation in stroke patients with non-fluent aphasia: a randomized, sham-controlled study.
CONCLUSIONS: LF-rTMS and HF-rTMS are both beneficial to the recovery of linguistic function in patients with post-stroke non-fluent aphasia. LF-rTMS produced immediate benefits that persisted long-term, while HF-rTMS only produced long-term benefits. In addition, the benefits produced with LF-rTMS were more marked than those produced by HF-rTMS.

Risk factor profile in patients with stroke at a young age.
Conclusions Angiopathy is the most common risk factor for stroke at a young age. More than half of the patients with stroke at a young age have at least two independent risk factors for stroke. In the first two decades of life, the most frequent risk factors for stroke are heart diseases; arterial diseases play a dominant role in the consecutive three decades.

Omega-3 fatty acid supplement reduces activation of NADPH oxidase in intracranial atherosclerosis stenosis.
Conclusions Long-term O3FA dietary supplementation prevents the development of intracranial atherosclerosis. This O3FA effect appears to be mediated by its attenuation of NOX subunit expression and NOX activity, therefore reducing ROS production. O3FA dietary supplement shows promising results in the prevention of ICAS.

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.

A mini review: garlic extract and vascular diseases.
Authors: Zhu Y, Anand R, Geng X, Ding Y
Abstract
Vascular diseases refer to medical conditions that narrow blood vessels. Narrowed cardiac or cerebral arteries can lead to myocardial infarction or ischemic stroke. Risk factors including atherosclerosis, hypertension, and diabetes may induce either cardiovascular or cerebral complications. Based on current research, garlic favorably affects atherosclerosis, hypertension and diabetes, and helps decrease the risk of myocardial infarction and ischemic stroke. Garlic has been utilized for hundreds of years as a natural health remedy. New research is emerging regarding i...

Development and validation of a risk score to predict 30-day mortality in patients with atrial fibrillation-related stroke: GPS-GF score.
Conclusion The GPS-GF score is a simple and valid tool for predicting 30-day mortality in patients with AF-related stroke.

Effects of cerebral small vessel disease on the outcome of patients with ischemic stroke caused by large artery atherosclerosis.
DISCUSSION: CSVD can significantly influence the clinical outcome of stroke in patients with cerebral infarction caused by LAA, and the methods to capture whole brain CSVD burden cross the spectrum of changes in CSVD imaging features may be useful for patient stratification in clinical trials. Further studies should be performed to validate the relationship between CSVD related brain damage and LAA stroke.

Genetic polymorphisms of vitamin D3 metabolizing CYP24A1 and CYP2R1 enzymes in Turkish patients with ischemic stroke.
Conclusion This is the first study conducted regarding the association of CYP24A1 rs927650 and CYP2R1 rs10741657 genetic polymorphisms and ischemic stroke risk. The polymorphic genotypes of these polymorphisms, together with hypertension, diabetes, smoking, and obesity, were found as significant risk factors for ischemic stroke.

U0126 protects hippocampal CA1 neurons against forebrain ischemia-induced apoptosis via the ERK1/2 signaling pathway and NMDA receptors.
CONCLUSION: These findings suggest a novel mechanism by which the ERK1/2 signaling pathway affects the post-I/R apoptosis of CA1 pyramidal neurons, which will provide a therapeutic target for the treatment of stroke.

Elevated CRP at admission predicts post-stroke cognitive impairment in Han Chinese patients with intracranial arterial stenosis.
CONCLUSIONS: To our knowledge, this is the first study to explore the effects of CRP on PSCI in Han Chinese with ICAS. Our findings indicate that higher CRP levels at admission are associated with subsequent cognitive decline in Han Chinese patients with ICAS following ischemic stroke. Further studies in other ethnic groups are needed to validate the use of CRP to predict dementia in ICAS patients.

ECAS score: a web-based risk model to predict moderate and severe extracranial carotid artery stenosis.
Conclusion The ECAS score is a valid model for predicting moderate and severe ECAS. Further validation of the ECAS score in different populations and larger samples is warranted.

Transorbital Doppler with carotid siphon monitoring detects right-to-left shunt effectively.
Conclusion TOD with CS monitoring is able to detect RLS effectively in different populations including healthy subjects, cryptogenic stroke, transient ischemia attack, and migraine patients. In comparing to the TTD with MCA approach, TOD with CS monitoring could detect comparable rate of RLS, but more high grades of RLS.
