Pre‐stroke dementia does not affect the post‐acute care functional outcome of old patients with ischemic stroke
ConclusionsThe present findings suggest that a diagnosis of pre‐stroke dementia is associated with lower FIM scores at admission and discharge in patients with ischemic stroke. Yet, daily motor FIM gains were similar in PSD and non‐PSD patients, suggesting that these patients should not be deprived of a post‐acute rehabilitation, based on a diagnosis of dementia before stroke onset.

Higher Education Is Associated with a Lower Risk of Dementia after a Stroke or TIA. The Rotterdam Study
Conclusion: Higher education is associated with a lower risk of dementia after stroke or TIA, particularly in men, which might be explained by a higher cognitive reserve.Neuroepidemiology 2016;46:120-127

Does B lymphocyte-mediated autoimmunity contribute to post-stroke dementia?
Publication date: Available online 13 August 2016 Source:Brain, Behavior, and Immunity Author(s): Kristian P. Doyle, Marion S. Buckwalter Post-stroke cognitive decline and dementia pose a significant public health problem, with 30% of stroke survivors suffering from dementia. The reason for this high prevalence is not well understood. Pathogenic B cell responses to the damaged CNS are one possible contributing factor. B-lymphocytes and antibodies are present in and around the stroke core of some human subjects who die with stroke and dementia, and mice that develop delayed cognitive dysfunction after stroke have clusters ...

Epidemiology of stroke in Europe and trends for the 21st century.
Abstract Despite major improvements in primary prevention and acute treatment over the last decades, stroke is still a devastating disease. At the beginning of the 21st century, the age-standardized incidence of stroke in Europe ranged from 95 to 290/100,000 per year, with one-month case-fatality rates ranging from 13 to 35%. Approximately 1.1 million inhabitants of Europe suffered a stroke each year, and ischemic stroke accounted for approximately 80% of cases. Although global stroke incidence is declining, rates observed in young adults are on the rise, thus suggesting a need for strategies to improve prevention...

Brain volume loss precedes cognitive decline in the first year after ischaemic stroke
Conclusions Brain volume loss precedes cognitive decline in the first year after ischaemic stroke. Tracking brain volume after stroke is important because brain volume is predictive of cognitive decline and atrophy is a hallmark of dementia.

Increased risk for dementia both before and after stroke: A population-based study in women followed over 44  years
Discussion There is an increased risk for dementia both before and after stroke. This has implications for understanding the relation between the two disorders and for prevention of dementia and stroke.

Access to rehabilitation for patients with stroke in Australia.
CONCLUSIONS: Access to stroke units and to early and ongoing rehabilitation for patients after stroke can be improved in Australia, both to optimise outcomes and to reduce the burden of care on underresourced community and primary care providers. PMID: 30636312 [PubMed - in process]

Association of blood lipids, atherosclerosis and statin use with dementia and cognitive impairment after stroke: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
CONCLUSION: Atherosclerosis may be associated with an increased risk of post-stroke dementia. Post-stroke statin use was associated with decreased risk of cognitive impairment. To confirm whether or not statins confer advantages in the post-stroke population in terms of preventing cognitive decline over and above their known effectiveness in reducing risk of further vascular events, further stroke trials including cognitive assessment and observational analyses adjusted for key confounders, focusing on key subgroups or statin use patterns are required.

IJERPH, Vol. 17, Pages 1944: Stroke to Dementia Associated with Environmental Risks —A Semi-Markov Model
Conclusion: Experiments showed that the proposed semi-Markovian model outperformed other benchmark diagnosis algorithms (i.e., linear regression, decision tree, random forest, and support vector machine), with a high R2 of 90%. The proposed model also facilitated an accurate prognosis on the transition time of stroke from chronic diseases to dementias against environmental risks and rehabilitation factors.
