Increased Risk of Bullous Pemphigoid after First-Ever Stroke: A Population-Based Study
Background: We hypothesize that autoantibodies are induced after the blood-brain barrier is damaged by stroke and the risk of bullous pemphigoid (BP) is increased after stroke. We assess the risk of BP after first-ever stroke in a nationwide population-based cohort of first-ever stroke patients.Methods: We extracted data from the Longitudinal Health Insurance Database 2005 and identified patients with first-ever stroke as well as control patients matched for age, gender, and year of enrollment. The risk of BP in first-ever stroke patients in comparison with that in control patients was analyzed using Cox regression.Results...

Hospital Discharge Disposition of Stroke Patients in Tennessee.
CONCLUSIONS: Our investigation revealed that the hospital discharge disposition pattern of patients with stroke in Tennessee was associated with the key patient characteristics of selected demographics, clinical indicators, and insurance status. These analyses resulted in the development of an easy-to-use predictive tool for early determination of hospital discharge disposition status. PMID: 28863224 [PubMed - in process]

Dental treatment procedures for periodontal disease and the subsequent risk of ischemic stroke: a retrospective population-based cohort study.
CONCLUSIONS: Our study showed that periodontitis is a risk factor of ischemic stroke. Both dental scaling and intensive treatment for periodontal disease are associated with a lower risk of further ischemic stroke events. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
