First-Ever Ischemic Stroke In Covid-19: How Is It Different? - A Stroke Registry-Based Study From South India
Acta Neurol Taiwan. 2023 Dec 30;32(4):190-201.ABSTRACTStroke associated with COVID-19 has been characterised in several multicentre retrospective studies and meta-analyses. However, they did not distinguish first-ever ischemic strokes (F-AIS). Therefore, we aimed to study the incidence, clinical characteristics, and outcomes of a cohort of F-AIS associated with COVID-19 during the first wave of the pandemic and compare this cohort with those of F-AIS without COVID-19, COVID-19 without stroke. We also sought to compare the stroke admissions and mechanisms during the pandemic and immediate prepandemic periods.PMID:37723911

Neurological telerehabilitation in the COVID-19 era – current perspectives through a bibliometric analysis
ConclusionA greater interest in the subject was observed in China with greater relevance of journals and institutions focused on neurology. However, despite telerehabilitation being an effective alternative in the context of the pandemic, few studies have explored this modality.

Bibliometric analysis of the worldwide scientific production on COVID-19 infection and cerebrovascular disease
CONCLUSION: It was observed that the United States was the country with the highest scientific production on COVID-19 and cerebrovascular disease in the year 2020 in the different health areas; however, more research is still needed worldwide for a better analysis of the bibliometric indicators on the subject.PMID:37706386 | PMC:PMC10284493 | DOI:10.4103/aca.aca_70_22

Changing the stroke network during pandemic scenarios does not affect the management of patients with a positive Cincinnati prehospital stroke scale
ConclusionsThe pandemic forced changes in the clinical mission of many hospitals by reducing the number of stroke units. Despite this, the organization of the emergency system allowed to identify strategic hospitals and thus avoid excessive transport time. The result was an adequate time for fibrinolysis/thrombectomy, in agreement with the guidelines. Coordinated management in emergency situations makes it possible to maintain service quality standards, despite the unfavorable scenario.

Feasibility of a Virtual-Reality-Enabled At-Home Telerehabilitation Program for Stroke Survivors: A Case Study
J Pers Med. 2023 Aug 3;13(8):1230. doi: 10.3390/jpm13081230.ABSTRACTStroke rehabilitation is a lengthy procedure that is necessary for stroke recovery. However, stroke rehabilitation may not be readily available for patients who live rurally due to barriers such as transportation and expenses. This shortage in wearable technology, in turn, causes health disparity among the rural population, which was exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic restrictions. Telerehabilitation (TR) is a potential solution for stroke rehabilitation in rural areas. This one-case study aimed to examine the feasibility and safety of a technology-enabl...

The Pandemic of Coronary Artery Disease in the Sub-Saharan Africa: What Clinicians Need to Know
AbstractPurpose of ReviewCardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are a leading cause of morbidity and mortality globally with an accelerated increase in CVD ‑related death in Africa and other low‑middle‑income countries. This review is aimed at highlighting the burden of coronary artery disease CAD, its peculiarities as well as challenges of management in sub-Saharan Africa.Recent FindingsRecent data revealed a shift from high incidence of CVDs associated with poverty and malnutrition (such as rheumatic heart disease) initially, which are now falling, to rising incidence of other non-communicable CVDs (such as hypertension, c...
