Immune Pathways in Etiology, Acute Phase, and Chronic Sequelae of Ischemic Stroke
Circ Res. 2022 Apr 15;130(8):1167-1186. doi: 10.1161/CIRCRESAHA.121.319994. Epub 2022 Apr 14.ABSTRACTInflammation and immune mechanisms are crucially involved in the pathophysiology of the development, acute damage cascades, and chronic course after ischemic stroke. Atherosclerosis is an inflammatory disease, and, in addition to classical risk factors, maladaptive immune mechanisms lead to an increased risk of stroke. Accordingly, individuals with signs of inflammation or corresponding biomarkers have an increased risk of stroke. Anti-inflammatory drugs, such as IL (interleukin)-1β blockers, methotrexate, or colchicine, r...

DIA-based technology explores hub pathways and biomarkers of neurological recovery in ischemic stroke after rehabilitation
ConclusionComplement-related pathways, lipoprotein-related functions and effects, thrombosis and hemostasis, coronavirus disease (COVID-19), and inflammation and immunity pathways are not only key pathways in the pathogenesis of ischemic stroke but also the main pathways of action of rehabilitation therapy. In addition, IGHA1, LRG1, IGHV3-64D, and CP are upregulated in patients with ischemic stroke and downregulated after rehabilitation, which may be used as biomarkers to monitor neurological impairment and recovery after stroke.

Characteristics of Acute Stroke in Patients with Coronavirus Disease 2019 and Challenges in Stroke Management during an Epidemic.
Abstract Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an ongoing pandemic infection associated with high morbidity and mortality. The Korean city of Daegu endured the first large COVID-19 outbreak outside of China. Since the report of the first confirmed case in Daegu on February 18, 2020, a total of 6,880 patients have been reported until May 29, 2020. We experienced five patients with ischemic stroke and COVID-19 during this period in four tertiary hospitals in Daegu. The D-dimer levels were high in all three patients in whom D-dimer blood testing was performed. Multiple embolic infarctions were observed in three pati...

Cochrane Stroke vs COVID-19: Making it easy for people to find relevant COVID-19 evidence
Stroke is a leading cause of death and disability worldwide. The chances of having a stroke increase with age and older people also appear to suffer greater consequences from COVID-19. There may be a link between COVID-19 and new strokes, so healthcare professionals may be caring for people who have both COVID-19 and stroke.Cochrane Stroke heard from stroke care professionals and researchers that it was difficult to find relevant material amongst the thousands of articles available. To address this need, they collated useful resources for stroke care teams on their website. In addition, they made it easier for people to fi...

Stroke Care in the First Affiliated Hospital of Chengdu Medical College during the COVID-19 Outbreak
Coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) has become a pandemic disease globally. The First Affiliated Hospital of Chengdu Medical College has adopted telestroke to make stroke care accessible in remote areas. During the period January 2020 to March 2020, there was no COVID-19 case reported in our stroke center. A significant reduction of stroke admission was observed between the ischemic stroke group (235 vs. 588 cases) and the intracerebral hemorrhage group (136 vs. 150 cases) when compared with the same period last year (p #x3c; 0.001). The mean door-to-needle time (DNT) and door-to-puncture time (DPT) was 62 and 124 min, res...
