Effect of Conscious Sedation vs. General Anesthesia on Outcomes in Patients Undergoing Mechanical Thrombectomy for Acute Ischemic Stroke: A Prospective Randomized Clinical Trial
Conclusion: Anesthetic management with GA or CS during MT had no differential impact on the functional outcomes and mortality at discharge or 3 months after stroke in AIS patients, but CS led to more stable hemodynamics and lower incidence of pneumonia.

Cerebrolysin for acute ischaemic stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: Moderate-quality evidence indicates that Cerebrolysin probably has little or no beneficial effect on preventing all-cause death in acute ischaemic stroke, or on the total number of people with serious adverse events. Moderate-quality evidence also indicates a potential increase in non-fatal serious adverse events with Cerebrolysin use. PMID: 32662068 [PubMed - in process]

Usefulness of the Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio as a Predictor of Pneumonia and Urinary Tract Infection Within the First Week After Acute Ischemic Stroke
Conclusion: The NLR within 24 h after AIS appears to have no predictive value for post-stroke UTI, and is only a weak predictor for identifying patients at high risk for PSP. Its predictive value for PSP appears to be much stronger when incorporated in a prediction model including age, gender, NIHSS score, and dysphagia.

Adverse consequences of immediate thrombolysis-related complications: a multi-centre registry-based cohort study of acute stroke
In conclusion, the risk of nosocomial infections, worsening of stroke severity, longer HASU stay, disability and death is increased following immediate TRC. The management of patients following immediate TRC is more complex than previously thought and such complexity needs to be considere d when planning an increased thrombolysis service.

Predictive Factors for the Need of Tracheostomy in Patients With Large Vessel Occlusion Stroke Being Treated With Mechanical Thrombectomy
Conclusions: Patients with LVOS undergoing MT are at high risk to require TS if extubation after the intervention fails, DH is needed, and severe infectious complications occur in the acute phase after ischemic stroke. These factors are likely to be useful for the indication and timing of TS to reduce overall sedation and shorten ICU length of stay.

Economic evaluations of health care interventions in oropharyngeal dysphagia after stroke: protocol for a systematic review
DiscussionThe protocol for this systematic review is the first step to assess the cost-effectiveness of the healthcare interventions that have been described as potential treatments for post-stroke OD. This systematic review will summarise the current evidence on the relation between cost and benefits associated with the appropriate management of OD in post-stroke patients.Trial registrationPROSPEROCRD42020136245

Causes of Death in Endovascularly Treated Patients with Acute Stroke INTERVENTIONAL
CONCLUSIONS: Cerebrovascular causes in patients with stroke play a major role in the intrahospital causes of death and reasons for palliation. Considering the large proportion of secondarily palliative–treated patients, reasons for palliation should be considered instead of causes of death to avoid concealment by, for example, life-terminating measures.

Swallowing Dysfunction after Acute Stroke: The Incidence, Predictors and Outcome
CONCLUSION: Swallowing dysfunction should be checked in all cases of strokes, including unilateral hemispheric strokes and in fully conscious patients. Swallowing improves with time, but the patient may require feeding assistance in an acute setting. Dysphagia is more common in strokes with higher NIHSS, involving more brain parenchyma and posterior circulation strokes.PMID:37651239 | DOI:10.59556/japi.71.0301
