Factors Associated with Delay in Presentation to the Hospital for Young Adults with Ischemic Stroke
Conclusions: A majority of young adults with ischemic stroke presented outside the time window for intravenous fibrinolysis. Diabetes, single status, and unemployed status were associated with delayed presentation.Cerebrovasc Dis 2016;42:10-14

18 F-FDG PET/CT imaging factors that predict ischaemic stroke in cancer patients
ConclusionOur findings suggest that arterial FDG uptake and hypermetabolic malignancy on PET and the VAT proportion on CT could be independent predictors of future ischaemic stroke in patients with cancer and could identify those patients who would benefit from medical treatment.

Identifying ischemic stroke associated with cancer: a multiple model derived from a case –control analysis
AbstractIschemic stroke in patients with cancer is thought to be associated with a worse prognosis and might be the initial symptom of an unknown malignancy. However, diagnostic algorithms to reliably identify cancer-associated stroke have not been developed. In this retrospective single-centre analysis, 68 patients with ischemic stroke and an active solid malignancy were identified. Neurological assessment and outcome, cardiovascular risk factors, neuroimaging studies as well as laboratory findings were compared to 68 age- and sex-matched control subjects with ischemic stroke without diagnosis of cancer. Lung, pancreatic ...

Stroke like syndrome and simple partial seizures secondary to intrathecal methotrexate use for the treatment of acute lymphocytic leukemia. (p6.181)
Conclusions:Our case may be the first reported of seizures and stroke like syndrome in the same patient for ALL treated with MTX. Clinicians should include Methotrexate induced leukoencephalopathy in their differential of seizures, stroke like syndrome and a combination of both. MRI DWI, ADC and FLAIR images should be included in the diagnostic evaluation of MTX induced encephalopathy especially with IT methotrexate.Disclosure: Dr. Fares has nothing to disclose. Dr. Silliman has received research support from Sanofi Genzyme, Biogen Idec, Bristol Myers and Novartis.

Potential Pathogenesis and Biomarkers of Kidney Cancer-Related Stroke.
CONCLUSIONS Elevated plasma D-dimer, CA125 and CEA levels, and increased urine protein levels might lead to hypercoagulability and then KCS; however, they may also be biomarkers of KCS. PMID: 28505148 [PubMed - in process]

Intravenous Thrombolysis in Acute Ischemic Stroke with Active Cancer.
In conclusion, ischemic stroke patients with active cancer, especially those with a cryptogenic mechanism, showed poor clinical outcomes after use of IV t-PA. PMID: 28660209 [PubMed - in process]

Fried-Food Consumption Does Not Increase the Risk of Stroke in the Spanish Cohort of the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) Study
ConclusionsIn this Spanish cohort, whose participants mainly used olive oil or sunflower oil when frying, the consumption of fried food was not associated with an increased risk of incident stroke.

Case Report: Brain Metastasis Confined to the Infarcted Area Following Stroke
Conclusions: Cerebral infarctions can cause neovascularization and disruption of the blood–brain barrier. Moreover, the compartmentalized cavity formed by the ischemic injury may accept a large volume of metastatic tumor cells. Such an altered microenvironment of infarcted tissue would be suitable for the colonization and proliferation of metastatic seed. Further, brain metastases should be considered, in addition to recurrence, when new focal neurological deficits develop in patients with ischemic stroke and comorbid cancer.

Consumption of flavonoid-rich fruits, flavonoids from fruits, and stroke risk: a prospective cohort study.
Abstract We sought to examine the prospective associations of specific fruit consumption, in particular flavonoid-rich fruit (FRF) consumption, with the risk of stroke and subtypes of stroke in a Japanese population. A study followed a total of 39,843 men and 47,334 women aged 44-76 years, and free of cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and cancer at baseline since 1995 and 1998 to the end of 2009 and 2012, respectively. Data on total and specific FRF consumption for each participant were obtained using a self-administrated food frequency questionnaire. The hazard ratios (HRs) of stroke in relation to total and spec...

Habitual flavonoid intake and ischemic stroke incidence in the Danish Diet, Cancer, and Health Cohort
CONCLUSIONS: These findings suggest that moderate habitual consumption of healthy flavonoid-rich foods is associated with a lower risk of ischemic stroke and further investigation is therefore warranted.PMID:33963737 | DOI:10.1093/ajcn/nqab138

Traditional Chinese Medicine Reduces the Incidence of Chemotherapy-Induced Stroke: A Five-Year Nationwide Population-Based Cohort Study From Taiwan
Conclusion: These Taiwanese data suggest that chemotherapy is a risk factor for stroke and that the use of TCM can significantly mitigate this risk. TCM also appears to reduce the mortality risk associated with chemotherapy.

Exploring stroke risk and prevention in China: insights from an outlier
Aging (Albany NY). 2021 Jun 4;13(undefined). doi: 10.18632/aging.203096. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIn contrast to the declining trend in most regions worldwide, the incidence of stroke is increasing in China and is leading to an alarming burden for the national healthcare system. In this review, we have generated new insights from this outlier, and we aim to provide new information that will help decrease the global stroke burden, especially in China and other regions sharing similar problems with China. First of all, several unsolved aspects fundamentally accounting for this discrepancy were promising, including the s...
