Association between Atrial Fibrillation and Three-Year Mortality in Nondiabetic Patients with Acute First-Ever Ischemic Stroke
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a risk factor for atrial fibrillation (AF) and is known to be an important risk factor for death from stroke. The influence of AF on long-term outcomes in patients with ischemic stroke remains controversial. To clarify the exact influence of AF on stroke outcome and exclude the effect from DM, we investigated the influence of AF on the 3-year outcomes of nondiabetic patients with acute first-ever ischemic stroke.

Sickle Mice Are Sensitive to Hypoxia/Ischemia-Induced Stroke but Respond to Tissue-Type Plasminogen Activator Treatment Basic Sciences
Conclusions—Sickle mice are sensitive to hypoxia/ischemia-induced cerebral infarct but benefit from thrombolytic treatment. An increased resistive index in carotid arteries may be an early marker of sickle cell vasculopathy.

Effects of Sodium/Glucose Cotransporter Inhibitors on Atrial Fibrillation and Stroke: A Meta-Analysis
Globally, the number of people estimated to have diabetes mellitus (DM) in 2019 was 463 million, and the estimated number is expected to rise to 578 million people by 2030.1 DM is also associated with an increased risk of atrial fibrillation (AF), 2 and has shown to be an independent risk factor for stroke in patients with AF.3 A meta-analysis of 102 studies further showed that patients with diabetes have a higher risk of all subtypes of stroke (ischemic, hemorrhagic and unclassified stroke).4 This has generated great interest in anti-hyperglycemic agents and their ability to reduce the cardiovascular complications of diabetes.

Acute Stroke Patients with Newly Diagnosed Diabetes Mellitus Have Poorer Outcomes than Those with Previously Diagnosed Diabetes Mellitus
This study aims to determine the prevalence of NDDM in the ASPs and to compare the outcome in NDDM and previously diagnosed DM (PDDM) in Cameroon.

Migraine with Visual aura and the Risk of Stroke- a Narrative Review
Patients with migraine with visual aura (MwvA) often present to eye care providers for evaluation. A thorough ophthalmological history and examination is needed to exclude ophthalmologic disorders. Additionally, it has been increasingly recognized that MwvA is associated with ischemic stroke (IS). The aim of this narrative review is to provide a comprehensive overview of the differential diagnosis of MwvA and its association with IS.

Relationship between idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss and subsequent stroke
Conclusions:Idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss did not increase stroke risk. The average annual stroke incidence rate after idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss was comparable with that in the general Taiwanese population. The study patients experienced stroke because they carried the risk factors for stroke. In patients with modified risk factors for stroke, efforts should be made to prevent stroke rather than idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss.

Association between pneumonia in acute stroke stage and 3-year mortality in patients with acute first-ever ischemic stroke
In conclusion, pneumonia during the acute stroke stage is associated with increased risk of 3-year mortality. Interventions to prevent pneumonia in acute stroke stage might improve ischemic stroke outcome.

IJERPH, Vol. 16, Pages 326: The Risk of Stroke in Kidney Transplant Recipients with End-Stage Kidney Disease
Ju Wu Chia-Hung Kao Background: The incidence of stroke after kidney transplantation is poorly understood. Our study aimed to determine the incidence and predictors of stroke as well as mortality from stroke in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs). Methods: This retrospective cohort study used the National Health Insurance Research Database in Taiwan to study KTRs (N = 4635), patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD; N = 69,297), and patients from the general population who were chronic kidney disease (CKD)-free and matched by comorbidities (N = 69,297) for the years 2000 through 2010. The risk of stroke was analyz...

Cross-Validation of the Factorial Validity of the Stroke Impact Scale 3.0 in Patients With Stroke
CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: Neither the eight- nor the four-domain structure of the Stroke Impact Scale 3.0 was supported, suggesting that scores may not provide valid assessments of HRQOL in clients with stroke. Further modification and validation of the Stroke Impact Scale 3.0 are warranted.WHAT THIS ARTICLE ADDS: Our findings suggest that the eight- and four-domain scores of the Stroke Impact Scale 3.0 may not be valid. Therefore, until more supporting evidence is developed, these scores should be interpreted cautiously in regard to clients' HRQOL; alternatively, other measures could be used.PMID:33657349 | DOI:10.5014/ajot.2021.040659
