Women Had Worse Stroke Outcome (P1.217)
Conclusion: in our cohort women have worst post-stroke outcome, even though they have higher burden of vascular risk factors they have lower prevalence of vascular disease in other vascular beds previous to stroke. This difference persists after adjusting by age, raising the possibility of specific gender risk factors influencing on ischemic stroke outcomes.Disclosure: Dr. Zurru has nothing to disclose.

Gender differences in the age‐stratified prevalence of risk factors in Korean ischemic stroke patients: a nationwide stroke registry‐based cross‐sectional study
ConclusionKorean women with stroke had more hypertension and hyperlipidemia after middle age, more diabetes after 65 years, and more atrial fibrillation throughout all ages. Strategies to control risk factors in women at risk for stroke are eagerly needed.

Neighborhood socioeconomic status and the prevalence of stroke and coronary heart disease in rural China: A population‐based study
ConclusionsThere were differences in vascular risk across rural villages in China, with higher lifetime stroke and CHD prevalence in higher‐income villages. For CHD, neighborhood effects were stronger among younger residents of high‐income villages. The results may have implications for public health interventions targeting populations at risk.

Predictors Of Early Mortality And Bad Outcome In Ischemic Stroke (P3.072)
Conclusion: identifying predictors of early mortality or post-stroke disability is mandatory in order to recognize opportunities of improvement and develop strategies for clinical care in this specific subgroup of patients. A multidisciplinary approach is essential to reduce clinical complications and to improve follow up after the hospitalization period.Disclosure: Dr. Luzzi has nothing to disclose.

Distribution of risk factors differs from coronary heart disease and stroke in China: a national population survey
Conclusions The distribution of risk factors for CHD and stroke were substantial differences. More specific prevention and control measures should be formulated according to the distribution differences of risk factors related to CVD.

Serum Fatty Acids and Incidence of Ischemic Stroke Among Postmenopausal Women Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— These findings suggest that individual serum trans, saturated, and monounsaturated fatty acids are positively associated with particular ischemic stroke subtypes, whereas individual n3 and n6 polyunsaturated fatty acids are inversely associated.

Subclinical cardiac dysfunction increases the risk of stroke and dementia: The Rotterdam Study
Conclusions: In elderly free of clinical cardiac disease, worse diastolic function is associated with clinical stroke, dementia, and silent infarcts on MRI, whereas worse systolic function is related only to clinical stroke. These findings can form the basis for future research on the utility of cardiac function as potential intervention target for prevention of neurologic diseases.

Low Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulfate is Associated With Increased Risk of Ischemic Stroke Among Women Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— Lower DHEAS levels were associated with a greater risk of ischemic stroke, even after adjustment for potential confounders. These novel observations warrant confirmation in other populations.

Diastolic Function of Heart and Outcomes After Ischemic Stroke (P7.151)
CONCLUSIONS: Because E/E’ is best correlated with invasively-assessed diastolic function, our results suggested that diastolic dysfunction may hinder a functional regain following ischemic stroke.Study Supported by:Disclosure: Dr. Hee Seung has nothing to disclose.

Improving Adherence to Secondary Stroke Prevention Strategies Through Motivational Interviewing: Randomized Controlled Trial Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— MI improved self-reported medication adherence. All other effects were nonsignificant, though in the direction of a treatment effect. Further study is required to determine whether MI leads to improvement in other important areas of functioning (eg, caregiver burden). Clinical Trial Registration— URL: http://www.anzctr.org.au.

Serum matrix metalloproteinase-9 levels and prognosis of acute ischemic stroke
Conclusions: Higher serum MMP-9 levels in the acute phase of ischemic stroke were associated with increased risk of mortality and major disability, suggesting that serum MMP-9 could be an important prognostic factor for ischemic stroke.

Sensitivity of transcranial doppler and transoesophageal echocardiography for the detection of patent foramen ovale in cryptogenic stroke
Conclusions TCD with bubble test is sensitive and specific for the detection of right–to–left shunts due to PFO confirmed at right heart catheterisation. In this population, TOE had low sensitivity for RLS. There was no difference in physical PFO size between TOE positive and negative patients.

Increased risk of stroke in patients with chronic kidney disease after recurrent hypoglycemia
Conclusions: CKD was associated with a higher risk of stroke and mortality in patients with hypoglycemia. Recurrent hypoglycemia considerably increased the risk of stroke and overall mortality in patients with CKD regardless of whether they had diabetes. These results suggest that hypoglycemia has a crucial role in stroke and death in patients with CKD.
