Inflammatory Bowel Disease as a Precondition for Stroke or TIA: A Matter of Crohn's Disease Rather than Ulcerative Colitis
As a chronic systemic inflammation may be associated with an increased risk of vascular events, the aim of the present study was to assess the incidence of stroke and transient ischemic attack (TIA) in patients with inflammatory bowel disease over a period of 15 years.

Stroke Dysbiosis Index (SDI) in Gut Microbiome Are Associated With Brain Injury and Prognosis of Stroke
Conclusions: We developed an index to measure gut microbiota dysbiosis in stroke patients; this index was significantly correlated with patients' outcome and was causally related to outcome in a mouse model of stroke. Our model facilitates the potential clinical application of gut microbiota data in stroke and adds quantitative evidence linking the gut microbiota to stroke. Introduction Ischemic stroke imposes a heavy burden on society, with 24.9 million cases worldwide (1). Although intravenous thrombolysis and endovascular treatment greatly improve some patients' prognosis, the prognosis for most pa...

Increased risk of stroke among patients with inflammatory bowel disease: A PRISMA ‐compliant meta‐analysis
ConclusionIBD is a risk factor for stroke. More high-quality large-sample epidemiologic studies about the relationship between IBD and stroke should be further conducted.

Prevalence of Ischemic Stroke in Cohort of Ulcerative Colitis Patients (P3.256)
Conclusions:In our cohort of ulcerative colitis patients, prevalence of ischemic stroke was 6000 per 100,000 which is not significantly different than the general population. However, in the under 60 age group prevalence of ischemic stroke is twice as that of the general population. Further population based cohort studies are needed to elucidate actual incidence in this high-risk group for early intervention.Study Supported by: No funding.Disclosure: Dr. Horta has nothing to disclose.

Chronic Inflammatory Disorders and Risk of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, Coronary Heart Disease, and Stroke: A Population-Based Cohort Study.
CONCLUSIONS: -The risk of cardiovascular diseases and T2DM is increased across a range of organ-specific and multi-system chronic inflammatory disorders with evidence that risk is associated with severity of inflammation. Clinical management of patients with chronic inflammatory disorders should aim to reduce cardiovascular risk. PMID: 24970784 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

A Rare Association between Ulcerative Colitis and Bilateral Thalamic Stroke (P6.270)
CONCLUSIONS:Cerebral sinus and vein thrombosis is a serious and often fatal complication of idiopathic inflammatory bowel disease if undiagnosed. It should be considered in any patient with little or no known vascular risk factors presenting with a severe headache and other focal or diffuse neurological signs.Disclosure: Dr. Misthal has nothing to disclose.

IBD sufferers at higher risk of stroke and heart attack
New research from the Mayo Clinic shows an increased risk of stroke or heart attack for patients with inflammatory bowel disease. Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis are the most common forms of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). In this disease, an abnormal response from the body's immune system mistakes food for a foreign substance, which triggers an immune response whereby the body attacks the cells lining the intestines, causing inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract...

Giant Vertebrobasilar Fusiform Aneurysm Mass Effect Heralds Rapid in Situ Thrombosis and Ischemic Stroke in the Setting of Ulcerative Colitis
Here we describe a case of brainstem infarction secondary to rapid thrombus formation in a giant vertebrobasilar fusiform aneurysm (GVBFA) that was preceded clinically by several months of headaches and dizziness initially attributable to mass effect. Less than a month after initial identification of the aneurysm, a large partially-occluding thrombus formed leading to infarction of the brainstem. Interestingly, this patient also had ulcerative colitis, which has been associated with acquired hypercoagulability.

Impact of inflammatory bowel disease on hospital outcomes in acute ischemic stroke: a nationwide cohort study
ConclusionsUC and CD do not appear to be associated with a higher risk of mortality or increased healthcare usage in AIS. AIS risk assessment in patients with IBD is important but should be done in a similar fashion to the general population.

Young-onset stroke complicating ulcerative colitis
Pract Neurol. 2022 Jan 7:practneurol-2021-003106. doi: 10.1136/practneurol-2021-003106. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTA 16-year-old girl developed a proximal occlusion of the right middle cerebral artery during a flare-up of acute ulcerative colitis. Although mechanical thrombectomy led to successful middle cerebral artery recanalisation, she required an immediate second thrombectomy due to reocclusion of the same arterial segment. She developed a second ischaemic event 7 days later despite intravenous heparin infusion, later switched to low-molecular-weight heparin, and a third event after 3 days despite the addition of a...

Inflammatory bowel disease and cardiovascular diseases
Inflammatory Bowel Disease is comprised of two major subtypes: Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, characterized by chronic inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract with extraintestinal manifestations that can involve a number of systems.1 There were estimated to be 7 million cases of inflammatory bowel disease globally in 2017, and at the national level, the United States had the highest age-standardized prevalence rate (464.5 per 100,000 population) of inflammatory bowel disease.2 Atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases is defined as a history of acute coronary syndrome, myocardial infarction, stable or unstable an...

Successful Treatment of Cerebral Venous Thrombosis Associated with Ulcerative Colitis
Thromboembolic complications, such as deep venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, are well described in patients with inflammatory bowel disease, but cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is a rare but potentially devastating complication. The authors describe the case of a 36-year-old Japanese man presenting with CVT associated with ulcerative colitis (UC) that was successfully treated with a combination of continuous anticoagulant and pulse steroid therapy. Our observations suggest that aggressive therapy for inducing acute UC remission is vitally important for CVT associated with UC.

Mortality and comorbidities in patients with multiple sclerosis compared with a population without multiple sclerosis: An observational study using the US department of defense administrative claims database
Conclusions Rates of mortality and several comorbidities are higher in the MS versus non-MS cohort. Early recognition and management of comorbidities may reduce premature mortality and improve quality of life in patients with MS.
