Prevalence and Clinical Correlation of Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction in African American Population with Ischemic Stroke (P02.044)
CONCLUSIONS: In this study the prevalence of LVSD in AA population with ischemic stroke was 22.45%. Among these, there was correlation between location of stroke and severity of LVSD. However prospective randomized studies are needed to validate our results. Disclosure: Dr. Devulapalli has nothing to disclose. Dr. Dunlap has nothing to disclose. Dr. Wilson has nothing to disclose.

Family History as a Risk Factor for Carotid Artery Stenosis Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— Family history of stroke, and of CHD were each associated with CAS, suggesting that shared genetic and environmental factors contribute to the risk of CAS.

Stroke associated with coronary artery bypass grafting
Abstract While coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) has been playing a significant role in the revascularization for ischemic heart disease, neurological complications associated with CABG have been a primary concern. Stroke, although the incidence is low, is one of the most devastating complication of CABG. Many studies have identified the risk factors for stroke with CABG, such as prior stroke, carotid artery stenosis, aortic atherosclerosis, atrial fibrillation and cardiopulmonary bypass. Various rational approaches focusing on individual risk factor have been proposed for the stroke. Prophylactic carotid rev...

Plaque Echolucency and the Risk of Ischaemic Stroke in Patients with Asymptomatic Carotid Stenosis Within the First Asymptomatic Carotid Surgery Trial (ACST-1).
CONCLUSION: Although the numbers of events in this study was low, definite plaque echolucency (> 25% soft plaque) was associated with a higher 5-year ipsilateral stroke risk in ACST-1 and may therefore help to identify patients at increased risk of stroke for whom carotid intervention may be particularly beneficial.

Effects of Kinesio taping for stroke patients with hemiplegic shoulder pain: A double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study.
CONCLUSION: Stroke patients with hemiplegic shoulder pain can experience greater reductions in Shoulder Pain and Disability Index, pain, and improvement in shoulder flexion, external, and internal rotation after 3 weeks of Kinesio taping intervention compared with sham Kinesio taping. Kinesio taping may be an alternative treatment option for stroke patients with hemiplegic shoulder pain. PMID: 28233009 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Screening with doppler ultrasound for carotid artery stenosis in patients with stroke or transient ischaemic attack
ConclusionsIn a major Danish stroke centre, the national recommended time limit of 4 days in patients with stroke or transient ischaemic attack for screening for carotid stenosis was met in almost all patients. No patients were excluded from surgery as a result of a time limit of 14 days from admission to surgery being exceeded. Of all patients screened, 1·2% underwent carotid endarterectomy.

Cyclophilin A: A predictive biomarker of carotid stenosis in cerebral ischemic stroke.
CONCLUSION: Increased plasma Cyclophilin A levels might be involved in the pathophysiology of acute ischemic stroke and Cyclophilin A might serve as a biomarker in risk assessment of acute stroke patients. PMID: 29766804 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Monocyte/lymphocyte ratio is associated with carotid stenosis in ischemic stroke: A retrospective analysis
ConclusionMonocyte/lymphocyte ratio plays important roles in carotid stenosis in patients with ischemic stroke and is an independent risk factor of the severity of carotid stenosis. Therefore, MLR might be considered a potential index in the diagnosis of carotid stenosis in patients with ischemic stroke.

Transcranial Doppler sonography for detecting stenosis or occlusion of intracranial arteries in people with acute ischaemic stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: This review provides evidence that TCD or TCCD, administered by professionals with adequate experience and skills, can provide useful diagnostic information for detecting stenosis or occlusion of intracranial vessels in people with acute ischaemic stroke, or guide the request for more invasive vascular neuroimaging, especially where CT or MR-based vascular imaging are not immediately available. More studies are needed to confirm or refute the results of this review in a larger sample of stroke patients, to verify the role of contrast medium and to evaluate the clinical advantage of the use of ultrasound. ...

Early Ultrafast Ultrasound Imaging of Cerebral Perfusion correlates with Ischemic Stroke outcomes and responses to treatment in Mice
Conclusion: We thus provide the proof of concept that in a mouse model of thromboembolic stroke with an intact skull, early ultrafast ultrasound can be indicative of responses to treatment and cerebral tissue fates following stroke. It brings new tools to study ischemic stroke in preclinical models and is the first step prior translation to the clinical settings.

Carotid Intraplaque Neovascularization Predicts Ischemic Stroke Recurrence in Patients with Carotid Atherosclerosis
Conclusions: IPN was an independent predictor of stroke recurrence in patients with a recent ischemic stroke and carotid atherosclerosis. In predicting stroke recurrence, IPN may be an earlier indicator than carotid stenosis and may help stratify the risk of stroke recurrence.Gerontology

Association Between Ultrasound Parameters and History of Ischemic or Hemorrhagic Stroke in Patients With Moyamoya Disease
Conclusions: Ultrasound parameters of EICA and PCA are independently associated with history of previous ipsilateral ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke in patients with MMD. The present ultrasound-based nomogram might provide information to identify MMD patients with high risk of stroke. Future long-term follow-up studies are needed to prove the predictive value in other independent cohorts.Clinical Trial Registration:http://www.chictr.org.cn/index.aspx.
