Your Houseplants Have Some Powerful Health Benefits
Every morning, I spring out of bed, eager to check on my housemates: Alvin the monstera albo, Allison the other albo, Dominic the philodendron domesticum variegated, and Connie the Thai constellation monstera. Yes, my vegetal friends all have names—which you understand if you’re a plant person, too.
Collecting and caring for houseplants boomed in popularity during the pandemic, especially among younger adults who often don’t have abundant outdoor space. Americans spent $8.5 billion more on gardening-related items in 2020 than in 2019, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. Vibrant communities blossomed on s...

9 Ways to Squeeze in More Steps Every Day
Every day for the past decade, I’ve tried to dethrone the family walking champ: my 67-year-old dad. Despite my youthful advantage—he has more than 30 years on me, as he’s quick to point out—I haven’t logged more steps than him once. I find this to be both mortifying and a point of vicarious pride; his fitness is remarkable. It’s also excellent motivation to find creative ways to finally out-walk him.
My dad and I compete using our favorite pedometer app, which displays each day’s steps in a bar graph. (While we both wear Apple Watches, we like the app best for logging the entire da...

Mr. M
Dr. Migliore
I step off the subway, up the elevator, and up several flights of stairs. There’s a homeless man there who always uses the last stair of the lower staircase as a tray for his food. And by tray, I mean he sets his half-eaten rice burrito directly onto the step and picks around at it while I imagine the guacamole is mixing with Hep B and C. diff and MRSA. He looks up at me, I promise myself for the 100th time I’m going to start carrying cash or Kind bars or something; I give him my best sheepish face, and emerge at street level. I walk toward my hospital and pass a gentleman who sits on a ledge next to the ...

CO33 Methodological Challenges and Considerations for Decision Makers When Assessing within-Class Comparative Effectiveness and Cost-Effectiveness: The Case of Non-Vitamin K Antagonist Oral Anticoagulants
The United Kingdom National Institute of Health Care Excellence (NICE) published a draft clinical guideline for consultation on anticoagulation therapy for stroke prevention in individuals with atrial fibrillation in September 2020 that addressed which non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulant (NOAC) therapy (apixaban, dabigatran, rivaroxaban, edoxaban) is most clinically and cost-effective. We aimed to elucidate methodological considerations and challenges involved in evaluating the comparative effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of within-class treatments for the purpose of decision making by a reimbursement authority.

Challenges of implementation of the RCPCH paediatric stroke guidelines (acute management component) and how they can be overcome
In August 2017, the Royal College of Paediatric and Child Health (RCPCH) published guidelines for the management of stroke in childhood between 1 month and 18 years of age (see hyperlink). This comprehensive 169-page publication is a National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE)-accredited multiprofessional evidence-based guideline that provides recommendations for the management of stroke in children and young people. A small proportion of the guideline focuses on acute ischaemic stroke management with thrombolysis. Only a small number of children will be eligible for consideration for thrombolysis; however, it...

Loneliness Is a Public Health Emergency. Here ’s What Helps, According to Experts
When the pandemic first began, many experts feared that even people who managed to avoid the virus would suffer from unprecedented levels of loneliness. What would happen when millions of people were told to stay at home and distance themselves from friends and loved ones?
Two years of research later, experts have found that the pandemic did make Americans slightly more lonely—but loneliness levels were already dire enough to pose a threat to mental and physical health. Here’s what you need to know about loneliness and how to address it in your own life.

Non-ischemic cerebral enhancing lesions after thrombectomy: a multicentric retrospective French national registry
This study provides evidence that NICE lesions following MT are a possible rare complication with a similar pr esentation as previously described following endovascular aneurysm treatment. Both radiologists and neurologists should be aware of this adverse event and make use of MRI contrast agents in case of unexplained symptoms/images during follow-up after MT.

IJERPH, Vol. 19, Pages 4467: A Nurse-Led Integrated Chronic Care E-Enhanced Atrial Fibrillation (NICE-AF) Clinic in the Community: A Preliminary Evaluation
This study aims to provide a preliminary evaluation of the effectiveness of a Nurse-led Integrated Chronic care E-enhanced Atrial Fibrillation (NICE-AF) clinic in the community. The NICE-AF clinic was led by an advanced practice nurse (APN) who collaborated with a family physician. The clinic embodied integrated care and shifted from hospital-based, physician-centric care. Regular patient education, supplemented by a specially curated webpage, fast-tracked appointments for hospital-based specialised investigations, and teleconsultation with a hospital-based cardiologist were the highlights of the clinic. Forty-three partic...

What is the Price of the Potential for a Meaningful Recovery following Intracerebral Hemorrhage?
In this issue of the Journal of Stroke and Cerebrovascular Diseases, Vardanyan and colleagues report on the cost-utility of minimally invasive surgery (MIS) with thrombolysis for spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) from the perspective of the United Kingdom (UK) National Health Service (NHS)1 using data from the Minimally Invasive Surgery Plus Alteplase in Intracerebral Hemorrhage Evacuation (MISTIE III) trial2 and the UK Sentinel Stroke National Audit Programme (SSNAP).3 The economic evaluation revealed that the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio for MIS with thrombolysis fell significantly above the UK's Nationa...

A journey through clinic and research
I started to study Medicine at the University of Genoa, Italy more than 20 years ago and I now realize that I was quite far from understanding what ‘Medicine’ really means. After weeks and weeks spent on books during the first year, I understood that becoming a MD not only requires the willingness to help people with health problems, but also strong motivation and dedication to learn a huge amount of notions. In Italy, as it is the case for several other countries, the University courses last 6 years, during which the MD student is fully engaged by individual study, lessons and seminars, exercises, and internships.

Developing the right pathway
The pathway foundation: guidelines
The available NICE guidelines on ICM provide a solid basis for developing a pathway for investigation of patients with cryptogenic stroke or ESUS (NICE Guideline DG41, 2020). Ensuring specialists are broadly aware of these guidelines is important, particularly across both stroke and cardiology specialties.
