Factors Mediating Outcome After Stroke: Gender, Thrombolysis, and Their Interaction
AbstractSeveral studies, but not all, have shown that women benefit more from intravenous thrombolysis than men; few have accounted for pre-stroke mobility. Our aim was to determine whether there was an interaction between gender and thrombolysis treatment in 3-month modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score, after adjusting for pre-stroke mobility. We retrospectively reviewed medical records of 1390 consecutive ischemic stroke patients admitted between October 2012 and July 2015. The 3-month mRS was obtained from clinic visits. Thrombolysis-by-gender interaction was evaluated in univariate and multivariate analyses using ordinal ...

Factors associated with perforator stroke after selective basilar artery angioplasty or stenting
Conclusions Diabetes, time from last symptom to procedure, and pre-procedure stenosis percentage may be factors affecting the risk of perforator stroke associated with basilar artery angioplasty and/or stenting. These factors should be considered in planning of potential basilar artery angioplasty and/or stenting and prospectively evaluated in future multicenter trials.

Very Low Frequency Heart Rate Variability Predicts the Development of Post-Stroke Infections
AbstractStroke-induced immunodepression is a major risk factor for severe infectious complications in the immediate post-stroke period. We investigated the predictive value of heart rate variability (HRV) to identify patients at risk of post-stroke infection, systemic inflammatory response syndrome, or severe sepsis during the post-acute interval from days 3 to 5 after stroke onset. A prospective, observational monocentric cohort study was conducted in a university hospital stroke unit of patients with ischemic infarction in the territory of the middle cerebral artery without an ongoing infection at admission. Standard HRV...

CYP2C19 Loss-of-Function Associated with First-Time Ischemic Stroke in Non-surgical Asymptomatic Carotid Artery Stenosis During Clopidogrel Therapy
This study measures effect ofCYP2C19 genotype on ischemic stroke risk during clopidogrel therapy for asymptomatic, extracranial carotid stenosis patients. Using deidentified electronic health records, patients were selected for retrospective cohort using administrative code for carotid stenosis, availability ofCYP2C19 genotype result, clopidogrel exposure, and established patient care. Patients with intracranial atherosclerosis, aneurysm, arteriovenous malformation, prior ischemic stroke, or observation time<1 month were excluded. Dual antiplatelet therapy patients were included. Patients with carotid endarterectomy or ...

Paradoxical Association of Smoking With In-Hospital Mortality Among Patients Admitted With Acute Ischemic Stroke Stroke
Conclusions Similar to myocardial ischemia, smoking was independently associated with lower inpatient mortality in acute ischemic stroke. This effect may be due to tobacco-induced changes in cerebrovascular vasoreactivity, or may be due in part to residual confounding. Larger, multicenter studies are needed to confirm the finding and the effect on 30-day and 1-year mortality.

Glycosylated Hemoglobin A1 Predicts Risk for Symptomatic Hemorrhage After Thrombolysis for Acute Stroke Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— In our study, HbA1c turns out to be an important predictor of sICH after thrombolysis for acute stroke. These results suggest that hemorrhage after thrombolysis may be a consequence of long-term vascular injury rather than of acute hyperglycemia, and that HbA1c may be a better predictor than acute blood glucose or a history of diabetes mellitus.

Differences in Outcome and Predictors Between Ischemic and Intracerebral Hemorrhage: The South London Stroke Register Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— ICH has poorer outcomes up to 5 years after stroke. The improvement of functional outcome up to 3 months was significantly greater with ICH. Identification of factors associated with poor outcome may be used for clinical predictions.

Troponin Elevation Predicts Atrial Fibrillation in Patients with Stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack
Conclusions: cTnI elevation predicts new-onset AF on 24-hour Holter measurement in patients with acute ischemic stroke or TIA and may indicate a poorer prognosis and a higher risk of stroke, MI, and death at 3 months.

Glycosylated Hemoglobin for Diagnosis of Prediabetes in Acute Ischemic Stroke Patients
Background: Prediabetes (PD) is an independent risk factor for stroke. The American Diabetes Association (ADA) has recently published new guidelines recommending glycosylated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) as a marker to diagnose diabetes and PD. Diagnosis of diabetes Mellitus (DM) is often made at the time of hospitalization for stroke. Less is known about identifying PD in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients. We aim to investigate the frequency of new-onset PD in the hospitalized AIS patients using the new ADA guidelines.Methods: We retrospectively studied 362 AIS patients from our local database. Stroke risk factors, type of s...

Metformin-inclusive Therapy Reduces the Risk of Stroke in Patients with Diabetes: A 4-Year Follow-up Study
Metformin is a kind of oral hypoglycemic agents commonly prescribed to patients with diabetes mellitus. Although past studies had proven its protective effect on cardiovascular risk and related mortality, the evidence of metformin on stroke prevention was still insufficient and conflicting. Our study randomly selected 14,856 patients with diabetes from the database provided by the Taiwan National Health Research Institute, and 2 cohorts were formulated according to whether metformin was in the prescription record. All cases were followed up for 4 years to track their stroke incidence. As a result, 701 (17.5%) of 3999 diabe...

Hyponatremia in the Prognosis of Acute Ischemic Stroke
Background: Hyponatremia is a risk factor for stroke and cardiovascular disease. Even mild hyponatremia is associated with increased 30-day mortality after myocardial infarction, and it has recently shown to increase the 3-year mortality after a stroke. In this work, we investigated both acute and chronic clinical outcomes after a stroke in hyponatremic patients.Methods: We reviewed all patients admitted between 2004 and 2011 with the diagnosis of acute ischemic stroke. Hyponatremia was defined as serum sodium level less than 135 mmol/L and recorded on admission. All hemorrhagic strokes were excluded. Data were analyzed us...

Sex Differences in Trends of Incidence and Mortality of First-Ever Stroke in Rural Tianjin, China, From 1992 to 2012 Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— There was a significant increase in the incidence of first-ever stroke in women annually and a declining trend in the male/female rate ratio in rural China during the past 21 years. These results suggest that stroke will become one of the major diseases affecting women in future decades in China.

Metabolic Syndrome Associated with Ischemic Stroke among the Mexican Hispanic Population in the El Paso/US–Mexico Border Region
In this report, data were collected in the El Paso/US–Mexico border region, where 82% of the population is Mexican Hispanic, through a retrospective study of ischemic stroke from 2005-2010. Odds ratios (ORs), 95% confidence intervals, logistic regression, and multivariate analysis of the ORs adjusted for other variables, were used to analyze the effects of various risk factors on ischemic stroke. The metabolic syndrome and its components, specifically hypertension, diabetes, and dyslipidemia appeared to be strongly associated with ischemic stroke in the Mexican Hispanic population. Mexican Hispanic ischemic stroke patien...
