Association of High Homocysteine Levels With the Risk Stratification in Hypertensive Patients at Risk of Stroke.
Abstract PURPOSE: We aimed to investigate the association between stroke morbidity and different stratifications of classic risk factors, such as increasing age, body mass index (BMI), blood lipids, and blood glucose, in hypertensive patients with high homocysteine levels. METHODS: A cross-sectional study of 2258 patients with primary hypertension were enrolled in this study, including 871 stroke cases (62.89%) in 1385 hypertensive patients without hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy) and 647 (74.11%) stroke cases in 873 hypertensive patients with HHcy. Basic information of patients were collected, including age, sex,...

Dipyrone comedication in aspirin treated stroke patients impairs outcome.
CONCLUSIONS: Dipyrone comedication in patients with stroke impairs pharmacodynamic response to aspirin. This is associated with worse clinical outcome. Therefore dipyrone should be used with caution in aspirin treated stroke patients. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION: https://clinicaltrials.gov/show/NCT02148939; Identifier: NCT02148939.

Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors and ischemic stroke.
CONCLUSION: Despite the multiple pleiotropic effects of SGLT-2 inhibitors, these agents do not appear to affect stroke risk. Ongoing large trials with longer follow-up will evaluate whether the pleiotropic effects of this class will translate into benefits in ischemic stroke prevention.

The efficacy and safety of pharmacological treatments for post-stroke aphasia.
Conclusions Current evidence suggests that drugs can improve the prognosis of post-stroke aphasia, such as donepezil, memantine. Donepezil has a significant effect in improving the ability of auditory comprehension, naming, repetition and oral expression. Memantine has a significant effect in improving the ability of naming, spontaneous speech and repetition. Bromocriptine showed no significant improvement in the treatment of aphasia after stroke. The trial for galantamine, amphetamine and levodopa in the treatment of aphasia after stroke is limited and inconclusive. PMID: 29984673 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Drug treatment strategies for osteoporosis in stroke patients.
Authors: Hsieh CY, Sung SF, Huang HK Abstract Introduction: Osteoporosis and subsequent fractures are well-recognized complications of stroke. However, drug treatment strategies for osteoporosis after stroke have been rarely discussed in the current guidelines for the management of stroke or osteoporosis.Areas covered: The authors review the epidemiology, characteristics, pathophysiology, and risk prediction of post-stroke osteoporosis and fractures. Then they provide an overview of existing evidence regarding drug treatment strategies for osteoporosis in stroke patients. They also review the effects on bone minera...

Shuxuening injection facilitates neurofunctional recovery via down-regulation of G-CSF-mediated granulocyte adhesion and diapedesis pathway in a subacute stroke mouse model.
This study was to investigate whether SXNI can improve the prognosis of stroke at a subacute phase. Mice with cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury (CIRI) were established by middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO), and drugs or saline were injected by the tail vein every 12 h after reperfusion. The therapeutic effect of SXNI was evaluated by survival rate, modified neurologic severity scores (mNSS), open-field test, locomotive gait patterns, cerebral infarction volume, brain edema and histopathological changes. Subsequently, a combined method of RNA-seq and Ingenuity® Pathway Analysis (IPA) was performed to identify key t...

Colony-Stimulating Factors on Mobilizing CD34+ Cells and Improving Neurological Functions in Patients With Stroke: A Meta-Analysis and a Systematic Review
Conclusion: Our study consolidates the security of CSF administration for its exerting no effect on detrimental outcomes. It has proven to be effective in elevating CD34+ cell counts in periphery blood at day 5, indicating CSF may participate in stroke recovery, but its efficacy in stroke recovery remains detected.

China Stroke Registry for Patients With Traditional Chinese Medicine (CASES-TCM): Rationale and Design of a Prospective, Multicenter, Observational Study
Conclusion: To our knowledge, the CASES-TCM study is the first and largest nationwide registry to document comprehensive data on TCM treatment in patients with acute stroke. The findings of this study will be valuable to improve our knowledge about TCM treatment for patients with stroke and its subsequent outcomes in the actual clinical setting, consequently facilitating and standardizing the optimization of individualized interventions with TCM for stroke prevention and treatment in China.Study registration: This study was registered with Clinicaltrials.gov (URL: https://clinicaltrials.gov/, Unique identifier: NCT04921397).
