Late Hospital Arrival for Thrombolysis after Stroke in Southern Portugal: Who Is at Risk?
Background: Delayed hospital arrival remains the main reason for the low rates of thrombolysis in eligible acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients. The role of socioeconomic and clinical factors for the prehospital delay of AIS remains poor and has never been studied in Portugal. Objectives: Describe the socioeconomic and clinical factors leading to delayed hospital admission of AIS patients eligible to thrombolysis. Methods: A case-control study with a consecutive thrombolyzed AIS patients from 2010 to 2015.

Long-Term Effect of Promoting In-Hospital Physical Activity on Postdischarge Patients with Mild Ischemic Stroke
Background: Although there are reports on the promotion of physical activity during hospitalization, there is no evidence that promoting in-hospital physical activity continues over time after discharge. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the long-term effect of promoting in-hospital physical activity on postdischarge physical activity and self-efficacy for physical activity in patients with mild ischemic stroke. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study of a post hoc analysis of a previous randomized controlled trial.

Short-Term Risk of Ischemic Stroke After Detection of Left Ventricular Thrombus on Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Background: The short-term risk of ischemic stroke in patients with left ventricular (LV) thrombus identified via delayed-enhancement cardiac magnetic resonance (DE-CMR) imaging is uncertain. Methods: We performed a retrospective cohort study of patients who underwent DE-CMR for evaluation of LV systolic dysfunction at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital/Weill Cornell between 2007 and 2016. We identified all hospitalized patients who had DE-CMR evidence of LV thrombus, and as controls, all hospitalized patients who had no DE-CMR evidence of LV thrombus; 2 control patients were randomly selected for each patient with LV thrombus.

Disparities in the Use of Intravenous t-PA among Ischemic Stroke Patients: Population-based Recent Temporal Trends
Objective: To explore a 5-year comparison of disparities in intravenous t-PA (IV t-PA) use among acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients based on race, gender, age, ethnic origin, hospital status, and geographic location. Methods: We extracted patients ’ demographic information and hospital characteristics for 2010 and 2014 from the New York Statewide Planning and Research Cooperative System (SPARCS). We compared disparities in IV t-PA use among AIS patients in 2010 to that in 2014 to estimate temporal trends.

Factors Associated With In-Hospital Mortality in Very Elderly Patients With Ischemic Stroke: A Cohort Study
The highest mortality rates associated with ischemic stroke occur in patients of advanced age. However, studies of factors that establish the increase in hospital mortality are scanty in this population.

Association between Extracranial Carotid Artery Tortuosity and Clinical Outcomes in Anterior Circulation Acute Ischemic Stroke without Undergoing Endovascular Treatment
Background: Extracranial carotid artery (ECA) tortuosity may influences successful recanalization rates of mechanical thrombectomy in acute ischemic stroke (AIS), yet the relationship between ECA tortuosity and the prognosis of patients with anterior circulation AIS who cannot undergo endovascular treatment remains uncertain. We hypothesized that increased tortuosity of the ECA leads to unfavorable outcomes in such patients. Methods: Patients with anterior circulation AIS who underwent computed tomography angiography of the head and neck in our hospital between March 2018 and November 2018 were retrospectively analyzed.

Acute Stroke Care in the Coronavirus Disease 2019 Pandemic
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a pandemic respiratory disease with serious public health risk, and has taken the world off guard with its rapid spread. As the COVID-19 pandemic intensifies, overwhelming the healthcare system and the medical community, current practice for the management of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) will require modification, and guidelines should be relaxed while maintaining high standard quality of care. The aim of these suggestions is to avoid contributing to the rapid spread of COVID-19 as well as to conserve what are likely to be very limited resources (including personnel, intensive care/hos...

Is neutrophil/eosinophil ratio at admission a prognostic marker for in-hospital mortality of acute ischemic stroke?
This study aimed to investigate whether NER at admission is a prognostic marker for in-hospital mortality in patients with AIS.

Blood Pressure and Hospital Discharge Outcomes in Acute Ischemic Stroke Patients Undergoing Reperfusion Therapy
Acute management of blood pressure in ischemic stroke treated with reperfusion therapy remains uncertain. We evaluated blood pressures during the first 24-hours after reperfusion therapy in relation to in-hospital outcomes.

Risk Factors and Diet Components Determining Adherence to the Mediterranean Diet in Acute Ischemic Stroke Patients: A Cross-Sectional Analysis of a Prospective Hospital Register Study
Low adherence to a Mediterranean diet (MeDi) is associated with increased incidence, mortality, and severity of acute ischemic strokes (AIS). Nevertheless, the explanatory factors associated with such results are unclear. Our aim was to investigate stroke risk factors associated with adherence to a MeDi in a prospective cohort of AIS patients.

National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale Correlates Well with Initial Intracerebral Hemorrhage Volume
The US Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) currently publicly reports hospital-quality, risk-adjusted mortality measure for ischemic stroke but not intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). The NIHSS, which is captured in CMS administrative claims data, is a candidate metric for use in ICH risk adjustment and has been shown to predict clinical outcome with accuracy similar to the ICH Score. Correlation between early NIHSS and initial ICH volume would further support use of the NIHSS for ICH risk adjustment.
