The J-shape Association between Total Bilirubin and Stroke in Older Patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome: A Multicenter Study
ConclusionsBoth lower and higher bilirubin levels may increase the risk of stroke in older persons with OSAS, and there was a J-type dose-response relationship. The risk of stroke was lowest when the TBil level was approximately 11.5µmol/L.

Association of chocolate consumption with neurological and cardiovascular outcomes in atrial fibrillation: data from two Swiss atrial fibrillation cohort studies (Swiss-AF and BEAT-AF)
CONCLUSION: While chocolate consumption was not associated with MRI findings and major adverse cardiac events in an atrial fibrillation population, No/Low-Ch was associated with a lower cognitive construct score, higher risk of heart failure hospitalisation and increased all-cause mortality compared to Mod-Ch.CLINICALTRIALS: gov Identifier: NCT02105844.PMID:37609948 | DOI:10.57187/smw.2023.40109

Detection of atrial fibrillation using an implantable loop recorder in patients with previous cryptogenic stroke: the SPIDER-AF registry (Stroke Prevention by Increasing DEtection Rates of Atrial Fibrillation)
ConclusionsIn the context of cryptogenic strokes ILRs are a valuable tool for early detection of AF. In a real-world scenario, the anticoagulation therapy remains inadequate despite diagnosed AF in a relevant subset of patients requiring optimization of patient management.Graphical abstract

Treatment of an Acute Common Carotid Artery Occlusion Using a Large-Bore Aspiration Thrombectomy Device
An 86-year-old man presented with acute ischemic stroke in the left middle cerebral artery territory due to complete occlusion of the left common carotid artery (CCA) extending into the left internal and external carotid artery up to the carotid terminus (C7) (Fig 1). The etiology was surmised to be cardioembolic, in the setting of atrial fibrillation with subtherapeutic anticoagulation (international normalized ratio, 1.8). After presentation, the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score increased from 4 (baseline) to 8 points; mechanical recanalization by percutaneous thrombus aspiration was planned.

Periprocedural continuation versus interruption of oral anticoagulant drugs during transcatheter aortic valve implantation: rationale and design of the POPular PAUSE TAVI trial
EuroIntervention. 2023 Aug 22:EIJ-D-23-00206. doi: 10.4244/EIJ-D-23-00206. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAbout one-third of patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) use oral anticoagulants (OAC), mainly due to atrial fibrillation. General guidelines advise interrupting OAC in patients with a high risk of bleeding undergoing interventions. However, preliminary observational data suggest that the continuation of OAC during TAVI is safe and may reduce the risk of periprocedural thromboembolic events. The Periprocedural Continuation Versus Interruption of Oral Anticoagulant Drugs During Transcatheter ...
