Stroke Suggests Increased Risk of Dementia.
Conclusions: The findings of this study suggest that stroke confers an increased risk of dementia, especially in the elderly and in patients with hemorrhagic stroke. We advocate the need for close observation and enhanced health education programs to benefit patients with stroke. PMID: 25731623 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Intravenous Alteplase for Acute Ischemic Stroke in Taiwan: Can We Expand the National Health Insurance's Reimbursement Criteria?
In conclusion, the non-reimbursement group in Su, et al(3). is a mixture of stroke patients with very heterogeneous characteristics. With the advances of imaging selection modalities and new hyperacute treatment options nowadays, they should no longer be considered as an identical group of patients. We strokologists, as an emerging subspecialists, should devote more in dedicated and individualized selection of stroke patients for appropriate early recanalization therapy to improve their outcomes.

Risk of Ischemic Stroke, Hemorrhagic Stroke, and All-Cause Mortality in Retinal Vein Occlusion: A Nationwide Population-Based Cohort Study.
Conclusions: People with RVO are at a significantly greater risk of developing stroke, ischemic stroke, and hemorrhagic stroke. However, RVO does not significantly increase the risk of all-cause mortality. PMID: 30271630 [PubMed]

Characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine usage in patients with stroke in Taiwan: A nationwide population-based study
Conclusion Adjunctive TCM use may reduce the risk of mortality rate among stroke patients. Bu-yang-huan-wu-tang and Dan-shen are the most common prescribed Chinese herbal formula and single herb for stroke patients, respectively. Future study investigating the anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective efficacy of Bu-yang-huan-wu-tang and Dan-shen in stroke is warranted. Graphical abstract

Risk of developing pleural empyema in patients with stroke: a propensity-matched cohort study
In conclusion, patients with stroke are at an elevated risk of developing pleural empyema. The risk is greater for those with hemor rhagic stroke than for those with ischemic stroke. The risk increases further for patients who undergo VP shunt implantation.

Risk of First Onset Stroke in SSRI-Exposed Adult Subjects: Survival Analysis and Examination of Age and Time Effects.
CONCLUSIONS: Use of SSRIs independently increases the risk of stroke across age strata. The risk is higher in younger adult subjects, and the stroke is more likely to be ischemic than hemorrhagic. The underlying mechanisms of stroke may be related to cerebral microbleeding or an overcorrection of hemostasis function. PMID: 28994901 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Association of stroke subtypes with risk of hip fracture: a population-based study in Taiwan
ConclusionOverall, stroke significantly increases the incidence of HF, and the risk of HF is significantly higher in ICH patients and female gender. We should identify stroke patients at risk of HF and pay more attention to prevent them from fall in poststroke long-term care.

Endocrine Dysfunction Following Stroke
In conclusions, stroke survivors have an approximately 2-fold increased risk of developing acquired hypothyroidism, pituitary dysfunction, or disorders of the adrenal glands. These ris ks should be taken into account in the management of patients who have ischemic or hemorrhagic strokes.Graphical Abstract

Stroke Incidence in Survivors of Carbon Monoxide Poisoning in South Korea: A Population-Based Longitudinal Study.
CONCLUSIONS CO poisoning is a high-risk factor for the development of stroke, evidenced by high incidences of stroke after CO poisoning. Practical strategies for preventing stroke after CO poisoning are needed, because stroke after CO poisoning affects adults of almost all ages, significantly increasing their socioeconomic burden.

Sex differences in stroke mortality in Thailand  : A National cohort study
CONCLUSIONS: Compared to men, women were older at time of stroke-diagnosis and had higher burden of stroke risk-factors. Women also had higher mortality after stroke regardless of stroke-type or duration since stroke-onset. Post-IS, excess stroke-mortality in women was greatest during the in-hospital period, whereas excess stroke-mortality increased with time in women who had HS. No clear relationship was found between duration since stroke-onset and mortality in patients who had SUT.PMID:36435621 | DOI:10.1016/j.ancard.2022.11.003

Building Linked Big Data for Stroke in Korea: Linkage of Stroke Registry and National Health Insurance Claims Data.
Conclusion: We could establish big data on stroke by linking CRCS registry and HIRA records, using claims data without personal identifiers. We plan to conduct national stroke research and improve stroke care using the linked big database. PMID: 30595684 [PubMed - in process]
