Microarray Profiling Reveals Distinct Circulating miRNAs in Aged Male and Female Mice Subjected to Post-stroke Social Isolation
AbstractSocial isolation (SI) increases ischemic injury and significantly delays recovery after experimental stroke. Changes in circulating microRNAs (miRNAs) have been implicated in several neurological disorders, including stroke. However, potential biomarkers to elucidate the mechanisms that underlie the detrimental effects of post-stroke isolation are unknown. Aged C57BL/6 male and female mice (18 –20 months) were subjected to a 60-min middle cerebral artery occlusion followed by reperfusion and were assigned to either isolation (SI) or continued pair housing (PH) immediately after stroke. On day 15, mice were sacri...

Effect of an oral hygienic care program for stroke patients in the intensive care unit.
Conclusion: Our OHCP was effective in improving the oral hygienic status and periodontal health of stroke patients during their stay in the ICU. Therefore, we recommend administration of the OHCP for stroke patients during their stay in the ICU. PMID: 24339313 [PubMed - in process]

Protective Effects of Intravenous Magnesium Sulfate in Stroke Patients Receiving Amiodarone: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Adv Exp Med Biol. 2021;1308:579-588. doi: 10.1007/978-3-030-64872-5_28.ABSTRACTAnti-arrhythmic agents, like amiodarone, interfere at different stages of the ischemic stroke. However, amiodarone was accompanied with immunological pulmonary complications and adverse neurological effects. We hypothesize that magnesium sulfate in combination with amiodarone holds promise for stroke treatment. Thirty-six patients with confirmed diagnosis of ischemic stroke and atrial fibrillation who received bolus amiodarone were randomly assigned to magnesium sulfate every 24 h or similar volume of normal saline (as placebo) for 5 days. Vario...

Acute ischemic stroke treated with mechanical thrombectomy and fungal endocarditis: a case report and systematic review of the literature
We report a case of an acute ischemic stroke treated by mechanical thrombectomy, with the histopathological analysis of the retrieved clot followed by the confirmation of fungal endocarditis. An extensive review of the literature has been proposed and three key points concerning the fungal endocarditis predisposing factors, the relation between thrombolysis and hemorrhagic risk and, finally, the importance of clot analysis have been discussed.

Oral health status in patients with acquired brain injury: a systematic review
Conclusion Stroke was the most predominant brain injury condition studied in the literature with few publications focusing on other form of brain injury diseases. Overall, oral health has been noted to be poor in patients with ABI, but oral hygiene, and OHrQoL, has been found to be improved when oral hygiene interventions are provided to the patients.
