Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Stroke: Determining the Mechanisms Behind their Association and Treatment Options
Transl Stroke Res. 2023 Mar 16. doi: 10.1007/s12975-023-01123-x. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSleep-disordered breathing (SDB) can be a sequela of stroke caused by vascular injury to vital respiratory centers, cerebral edema, and increased intracranial pressure of space-occupying lesions. Likewise, obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) contributes to increased stroke risk through local mechanisms such as impaired ischemic cerebrovascular response and systemic effects such as promoting atherosclerosis, hypercoagulability, cardiac arrhythmias, vascular-endothelial dysfunction, and metabolic syndrome. The impact of OSA on stroke out...

Association between metabolic syndrome and multiple lesions of intracranial atherothrombotic stroke: a hospital-based study
Conclusion: MetS may be pathophysiologically associated with intracranial atherothrombotic stroke multiplicity in women in particular. Future studies are warranted to confirm the findings.

Omentin-1 is Associated with Carotid Plaque Instability among Ischemic Stroke Patients.
CONCLUSIONS: Among ischemic stroke patients, higher omentin-1 levels were inversely associated with carotid plaque instability, but not associated with moderate-severe carotid stenosis or occlusion. Omentin-1 may represent a biomarker for predicting carotid plaque instability of acute ischemic stroke patients. PMID: 29225325 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Impact of Sarcopenia on Functional Outcomes Among Patients With Mild Acute Ischemic Stroke and Transient Ischemic Attack: A Retrospective Study
CONCLUSIONS: In this study, the prevalence of sarcopenia in patients with stroke was lower than most of previous studies and patients with sarcopenia showed higher likelihood for unfavorable functional outcomes at 90 days after acute ischemic stroke or TIA. Further investigation of the interventions for treating sarcopenia and its impact on the outcome of ischemic stroke patients is needed.PMID:35370897 | PMC:PMC8964497 | DOI:10.3389/fneur.2022.841945

Stroke Caused by Atherosclerosis of the Major Intracranial Arteries.
Abstract Our goal in this review is to discuss the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of stroke caused by atherosclerosis of the major intracranial arteries. References for the review were identified by searching PubMed for related studies published from 1955 to June 2016 using search terms intracranial stenosis and intracranial atherosclerosis. Reference sections of published randomized clinical trials and previously published reviews were searched for additional references. Intracranial atherosclerotic disease is a highly prevalent cause of stroke that is associated with a high risk of recurrent stroke. I...

Adverse effects of statin therapy: perception vs. the evidence – focus on glucose homeostasis, cognitive, renal and hepatic function, haemorrhagic stroke and cataract
ConclusionLong-term statin treatment is remarkably safe with a low risk of clinically relevant adverse effects as defined above; statin-associated muscle symptoms were discussed in a previous Consensus Statement. Importantly, the established cardiovascular benefits of statin therapy far outweigh the risk of adverse effects.

Relationship Between Insulin-like Growth Factor Binding Protein-2 and Left Ventricular Stroke Volume in Patients with Aortic Stenosis
Conclusions In this study, we documented that lower IGFBP-2 levels are independently associated with lower SVi, a powerful predictor of worse outcomes in the mild to moderate AS population. Teaser In aortic stenosis (AS) patients, LV remodeling and function vary extensively from one patient to another. Considering the associations between circulating IGFBP-2 and markers of the metabolic syndrome, the aim of the study was to examine the relationship between circulating IGFBP-2 and left ventricle (LV) pump function as measured by stroke volume index in AS patients with preserved LV ejection fraction.

Habitual snoring and risk of stroke: A meta-analysis of prospective studies
Habitual snoring (HS), which is defined as snoring more than three nights per week, occurs among approximately 33% of the general population [1]. Emerging evidence suggests this increase in HS problems may be due to hypertension [2], diabetes mellitus [3], metabolic syndrome [4], and intima-media thickness (IMT) [5]. In addition, there was mounting evidence for an association between HS and cardiovascular and all-cause mortality [6–8]. However, the role of HS in stroke is still uncertain.

The Metabolic Syndrome, Atrial Fibrillation and Stroke: Tackling An Emerging Epidemic
The prevalence of atrial fibrillation (AF) and AF-related stroke is set to increase dramatically in coming decades, with developing regions such as Latin America experiencing the greatest impact. These trends are primarily driven by aging populations and by the increasing prevalence of metabolic syndrome. Metabolic syndrome describes an association between diabetes, hypertension, obesity, dyslipidaemia and an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. It is in large part the result of unbalanced diet and sedentary lifestyle.

Omentin-1 and risk of myocardial infarction and stroke: Results from the EPIC-Potsdam cohort study
The recently identified adipokine omentin-1 is inversely associated with body fatness, metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular disease (CVD) in cross-sectional analyses. However, prospective data on the association between plasma omentin-1 levels and future risk of CVD are lacking. The aim of the study was to investigate the relationship between omentin-1 and incident myocardial infarction (MI) and stroke.
