Moderate to Severe Anemia Is Associated with Poor Functional Outcome in Acute Stroke Patients Treated with Mechanical Thrombectomy
Background: Anemia will negatively affect cerebral collaterals and penumbra. Eventually, it may cause worse clinical outcomes and even increase mortality rates in stroke patients. Anemia has recently been suggested to be an independent risk factor for ischemic stroke. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the effects of the presence of anemia on clinical outcomes in ischemic stroke patients undergoing mechanical thrombectomy.Methods: This was a retrospective study involving the prospectively and consecutively collected data of 90 adult patients between January 2015 and August 2016. Hemoglobin (Hb) cutoff levels were accepted ...

Results from the Displace Consortium: Practice Patterns on the Use of Transcranial Doppler Screening for Risk of Stroke in Children with Sickle Cell Anemia
Conclusions: Nearly all DISPLACE sites order TCD screening annually, as recommended in the guidelines, with some ordering screening more frequently. A few sites did not report initiation of CRCT per STOP protocol for abnormal TCD results; however, over half of the sites reported following up with an MRI/MRA, which may suggest evaluating for vasculopathy prior to CRCT. Some sites reported beginning HU therapy for abnormal results; this may reflect consideration of patients for whom CRCT is not possible, but data were not collected for confirmation. Interestingly, results suggest a reliance on MRI/MRA since sites commonly re...

Patients with acute myocardial infarction and atrial fibrillation: association of anemia with risk of in-hospital bleeding, stroke and other death causes.
Conclusions: In the Chinese in-hospital AMI and AF cohort, anemia was shown to be associated with increased risk of any bleeding, minor bleeding, gastrointestinal bleeding and other death causes, but not the risk of stroke or/and SE.

Associations of Anaemia with Stroke, Bleeding, and Mortality in Atrial Fibrillation: A Systematic Review and Meta ‐Analysis
ConclusionAnaemia is a frequently observed comorbidity in patients with AF, and is associated with an increased risk of all ‐cause, cardiovascular and non‐cardiovascular mortality, stroke/systemic thromboembolism, and major and gastrointestinal bleeding. Future studies are required to explore the causes of anaemia in AF, and whether investigation and treatment may be clinically beneficial in affected individuals.This article is protected by copyright.

Low Hemoglobin Levels and Recurrent Falls in U.S. Men and Women: Prospective Findings from the REasons for Geographic And Racial Differences in Stroke (REGARDS) Cohort.
CONCLUSIONS:: Among men, lower hemoglobin levels were associated with an increased risk for recurrent falls. Although our findings suggest an increased risk for recurrent falls at both lower and higher hemoglobin levels among women, these findings should be confirmed in subsequent studies.

Anaemia on admission is associated with more severe intracerebral haemorrhage and worse outcomes
ConclusionsAnaemia on admission is associated with greater intracerebral haemorrhage severity and worse outcomes. The utility of transfusion remains unclear in this setting.

Near-elimination of folate-deficiency anemia by mandatory folic acid fortification in older US adults: Reasons for Geographic and Racial Differences in Stroke study 2003-2007.
CONCLUSION: Our data suggest that, after mandatory folic acid fortification, the prevalence of folate-deficiency anemia is nearly nonexistent in a community-dwelling population in the United States. PMID: 23945721 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Capacity building and stroke risk assessment in Nigerian children with sickle cell anaemia
ConclusionEffective capacity building of middle level manpower is feasible and can provide a credible TCD screening service to communities with a high demand and a shortage of trained professionals. The pattern of TCD abnormalities seen in Africa are comparable to those obtained in several previous worldwide reports. Pediatr Blood Cancer © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The effects of malnutrition on cardiac function in African children
Conclusions In this largest study to date, we found no significant difference in cardiac function between hospitalised children with and without severe acute malnutrition. Further study is needed to determine if cardiac function is diminished in unstable malnourished children.

Anemia Boosts Stroke Death Risk, Study Finds
WEDNESDAY, Aug. 17, 2016 -- Older stroke victims suffering from anemia -- a lack of red blood cells -- may have higher odds of dying, researchers report. Among thousands of stroke patients, those who were anemic had a 1.5 to two times higher risk...

ESRD After Heart Failure, Myocardial Infarction, or Stroke in Type  2 Diabetic Patients With CKD
Conclusions Most ESRD cases occurred in individuals without intercurrent CV events who had lower eGFRs than individuals with intercurrent CV events, but similar post-ESRD mortality. Nevertheless, intercurrent CV events, particularly heart failure, are strongly associated with risk for ESRD. These findings underscore the need for kidney-specific therapies in addition to treatment of CV risk factors to lower ESRD incidence in diabetes.

Design of the DREPAGREFFE trial: A prospective controlled multicenter study evaluating the benefit of genoidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation over chronic transfusion in sickle cell anemia children detected to be at risk of stroke by transcranial Doppler (NCT 01340404)
Children with sickle cell anemia (SCA) have an 11% risk of stroke by the age of 18. Chronic transfusion applied in patients detected to be at risk by transcranial Doppler allows a significant reduction of stroke risk. However, chronic transfusion exposes to several adverse events, including alloimmunization and iron overload, and is not curative. Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation allows termination of the transfusion program, but its benefit has not been demonstrated.
