Neuroimaging Parameters Are Not Associated With Chronic Post-stroke Fatigue in Young Stroke Patients
DiscussionWe did not find any association between stroke characteristics (lesion location and size) and chronic post-stroke fatigue (CIS20-R), nor associations between structural brain network connectivity and post-stroke fatigue on the long term in young stroke patients.

Temporal Patterning of Neurofilament Light as a Blood-Based Biomarker for Stroke: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Damage to axons is a core feature of ischemic stroke and cerebrovascular disease. The burden of axonal injury is correlated with the acute clinical deficits, the underlying burden of ischemic brain injury, the prognosis of recovery, and may be a meaningful therapeutic target for brain repair. Neurofilament light chain (NfL) has been identified as a blood-based biomarker that reflects neuroaxonal damage resulting from stroke. However, the utility of NfL as a blood-based biomarker in stroke is confounded by studies examining different temporal windows and patient populations. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysi...

How do cardiovascular risk factors correlate with post-stroke cognitive function: Directly or indirectly through stroke severity?
ConclusionThis is the first Chinese study exploring the moderated and mediating associations between cardiovascular risk factors, stroke severity, and cognitive function after stroke. Age, female sex, and atrial fibrillation were directly associated with lower cognition after stroke. The combination of hypertension might have a positive effect on cognition.

Migraine aura-like symptoms at onset of stroke and stroke-like symptoms in migraine with aura
ConclusionMany patients with stroke experience migraine-like symptoms at stroke onset, and many migraines with aura patients have stroke-like symptoms. Though overall the symptom frequencies of the two groups are significantly different, clarifying the differential diagnosis in an individual patient requires additional history elements, physical findings, or results of ancillary investigations.

Experiences and needs of the caregivers of stroke survivors in Malaysia —A phenomenological exploration
ConclusionThe role of informal caregivers becomes critical for continuum of stroke care. As caregivers take up the roles and responsibilities of those who contribute to stroke rehabilitation single-handedly soon after hospital discharge. Results of this study highlights the needs for providing systematic support to caregivers for engaging them in effective stroke care, particularly in the community. Stroke service providers, policy makers and program planners must be sensitized to empower caregivers of stroke survivors in effectively supporting stroke survivor in their family on the road of recovery.

Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D is associated with stroke history in a reverse J-shape
ConclusionUsing data from a large, cross-sectional cohort program, we found that circulating 25(OH)D was related to stroke history in a reverse J-shaped manner. Given how the causal relationship between circulating 25(OH)D and history of stroke has not been established, more high-quality evidence based on the reverse J-shaped feature is needed to elucidate the link between vitamin D and stroke risk, and the effect of vitamin D supplements on stroke prevention.

Evaluation of the feasibility and acceptability of ReWin —A digital therapeutic rehabilitation innovation for people with stroke-related disabilities in India
ConclusionsReWin has all the essential components to connect care providers and consumers not just for stroke rehabilitation but for several other health conditions with the use of several other technological features that support rehabilitation of persons with disabilities and strengthen rehabilitation in health systems worldwide. It is critical to amalgamate ReWin and other evidence-based interventions for rehabilitation to innovate scalable solutions and promote universal health coverage for stroke care worldwide.

Sex differences and risk factors in recurrent ischemic stroke
ConclusionHypertension and dyslipidemia were significant risk factors of recurrent ischemic stroke in both genders. Smoking and alcohol drinking were significant risk factors associated with ischemic stroke recurrence in males. Therefore, smoking cessation and alcohol abstinence are recommended after the first stroke to prevent recurrent ischemic stroke especially for males. Diabetes was a significant risk factor of ischemic stroke recurrence in females. More extensive studies are needed to understand the causal relationship of each factors with ischemic stroke recurrence according to sex differences and specification of p...

Prognostic value of inflammation biomarkers for 30-day mortality in critically ill patients with stroke
ConclusionNLR, NAR, and RA were potential prognostic biomarkers for predicting 30-day mortality of hemorrhagic stroke patients, which might provide clinicians an easy and cheap way to quickly identify patients with high risk of mortality.

Characteristics of stroke after liver and kidney transplantation
ConclusionsIn-hospital, perioperative, and hemorrhagic strokes were more common in the LT group than in the KT group. Ischemic stroke subtypes did not differ significantly between the two groups and undetermined etiology was the most common cause of ischemic stroke in both groups. High mortality after stroke was noted in transplantation patients and was associated with in-hospital stroke.

Serum homocysteine level is an independent risk factor for 1-year stroke recurrence in patients with acute ischemic stroke and H-type hypertension: results from the Xi'an stroke registry study of China
ConclusionsIn patients with AIS and H-type hypertension, the serum homocysteine level was an independent risk factor for 1-year stroke recurrence. A serum homocysteine level of ≥25 μmol/L significantly increased the risk of 1-year stroke recurrence. These findings can inform the creation of a more precise homocysteine reference range for the prevention and treatment of 1-year stroke recurrence in patients with AIS and H-type hypertension and provide a theoretical foundation for the individualized prevention and treatment of stroke recurrence.

Identification and cross-validation of autophagy-related genes in cardioembolic stroke
ConclusionWe identified 41 potential autophagy-related genes associated with CE stroke through bioinformatics analysis. SERPINA1, WDFY3, ERN1, RHEB, and BCL2L1 were identified as the most significant DE genes that may affect the development of CE stroke by regulating autophagy. CXCR4 was identified as a hub gene of all types of strokes. ARNT, MAPK1, ATG12, ATG16L2, ATG2B, and BECN1 were identified as particular hub genes for CE stroke. These results may provide insight into the role of autophagy in CE stroke and contribute to the discovery of potential therapeutic targets for CE stroke treatment.

Stroke nurse navigator utilization reduces unplanned 30-day readmission in stroke patients treated with thrombolysis
ConclusionThe utilization of a stroke nurse navigator team reduced unplanned 30-day readmissions in stroke patients treated with thrombolysis. Further studies are warranted to determine the extent of the results of stroke patients not treated with thrombolysis and to better understand the relationship between resource utilization during the transition period from discharge and quality outcomes in stroke.

Blood pressure trajectory of inpatient stroke rehabilitation patients from the Determining Optimal Post-Stroke Exercise (DOSE) trial over the first 12 months post-stroke
ConclusionBlood pressure increased after inpatient rehabilitation over the first 12 months post-stroke, especially among those with a history of hypertension. The 4-week aerobic gait training intervention did not influence this trajectory.
