The management of patients with acute ischemic stroke while on direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs): data from an Italian cohort and a proposed algorithm
This study aimed at investigating whether there is any relationship between DOAC plasma levels and the stroke occurrence, on the basis of the phenotypic classification and pathophysiology of the stroke, in a cohort of DOAC-treated patients admitted to our hospital for AIS o ver 1-year period. A total of 28 patients had DOAC plasma levels determined in emergency and were included in the study, nine patients receiving dabigatran, 11 rivaroxaban and 8 apixaban. The DOAC levels were low in 8/28 patients (28.6% of the sample), intermediate in 4 (14.3%) and high in 16 (57.1% ). The most prevalent stroke subtype was the small ves...

Thrombus heterogeneity in ischemic stroke.
Authors: Staessens S, De Meyer SF Abstract The structure of stroke thrombi has gained an increasing amount of interest in recent years. The advent of endovascular thrombectomy has offered the unique opportunity to provide and analyze thrombi removed from ischemic stroke patients. It has become clear that the composition of ischemic stroke thrombi is relatively heterogenous and various molecular and cellular patterns become apparent. Good understanding of the histopathologic characteristics of thrombi is important to lead future advancements in acute ischemic stroke treatment. In this review, we give a brief overvie...

Acute revascularization treatments for ischemic stroke in the Stroke Units of Triveneto, northeast Italy: time to treatment and functional outcomes
AbstractIt is not known whether the current territorial organization for acute revascularization treatments in ischemic stroke patients guarantees similar time to treatment and functional outcomes among different levels of institutional stroke care. We aimed to assess the impact of time to treatment on functional outcomes in ischemic stroke patients who received intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) alone, bridging (IVT plus thrombectomy), or primary thrombectomy in level 1 and level 2 Stroke Units (SUs) in Triveneto, a geographical macroarea in Northeast of Italy. We conducted an analysis of data prospectively collected from 512...

Paradoxical Increase of Stroke in Patients with Defect of High Molecular Weight Multimers of the von Willebrand Factors following Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement.
CONCLUSION:  MLBCs and CT-ADP > 180 seconds were identified as predictors for ischemic stroke or TIA. The present study suggests that the defects of HMW multimers of the VWFs may contribute not only to bleeding events but also to thrombotic events. PMID: 32726854 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Age-dependent anticoagulant therapy for atrial fibrillation patients with intermediate risk of ischemic stroke: A nationwide population-based study.
CONCLUSIONS: Age is an important determinant of ischemic stroke and composite outcome in intermediate-risk AF patients. The benefit of OAC therapy for these AF patients appears to have an age threshold (age ≥ 55 years). PMID: 33307565 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Fibrinolysis and Remote Ischemic Conditioning: Mechanisms and Treatment Perspectives in Stroke
In conclusion, a single RIC treatment does not affect fibrinolysis in the acute phase, whereas long-term RIC administration may increase endogenous fibrinolysis. Increased endogenous fibrinolysis is unlikely to be the mediator of the acute neuroprotective effect of RIC in stroke patients, whereas it may partly explain the reduced stroke recurrence associated with long-term RIC treatment.

Impact of the pandemic of COVID-19 on emergency attendance for stroke and acute myocardial infarction in Beijing, China
This study covered from 03/01/2018 to 06/03/2020, including 19  weeks of lockdown period and 99 weeks before. A segmented Poisson regression model was used to estimate the immediate change and the monthly change in the secular trend of the emergency attendance rates. The emergency attendance rates of stroke and AMI cut in half at the beginning of the lockdown period, with 52.1% (95% CI 45.8% to 57.7%) and 63.1% (95% CI 56.1% to 63.1%) immediate decreases for stroke and AMI, respectively. Then during the lockdown period, 7.0% (95% CI 2.5%, 11.6%) and 16.1% (95% CI 9.5, 23.1) increases per month in the secular trends of em...

Monitoring of Direct Oral Anticoagulants Plasma Levels for Secondary Stroke Prevention
CONCLUSIONS: Monitoring of DOAC plasma levels could help to identify patients with increased risk for stroke recurrence and should be considered for certain subgroups, including patients with high GFR.PMID:35171533 | DOI:10.1111/jth.15677

Relationship between temporal rhythm-based classification of atrial fibrillation and stroke: real-world vs. clinical trial
ConclusionsOverall, our results support the need for anticoagulation based on thromboembolic risk profile rather than AF type.

Pre-admission antithrombotic use is associated with 3-month mRS score after thrombectomy for acute ischemic stroke
AbstractIn patients who undergo thrombectomy for acute ischemic stroke, the relationship between pre-admission antithrombotic (anticoagulation or antiplatelet) use and both radiographic and functional outcome is not well understood. We sought to explore the relationship between pre-admission antithrombotic use in patients who underwent thrombectomy for acute ischemic stroke at two medical centers in New York City between December 2018 and November 2020. Analyses were performed using analysis of variance and Pearson ’s chi-squared tests. Of 234 patients in the analysis cohort, 65 (28%) were on anticoagulation, 64 (27%) we...

Standard operating procedure for idarucizumab reversal of dabigatran anticoagulation in ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke
Conclusion: Reversal of dabigatran with idarucizumab in stroke patients appears easy to manage, safe and beneficial. The SOPs aim to reassure stroke physicians to include dabigatran reversal into their daily clinical routine when dealing with patients presenting with ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke under dabigatran therapy.

Impact of clopidogrel and potent P2Y 12 -inhibitors on mortality and stroke in patients with acute coronary syndrome or undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. A systematic review and meta-analysis.
Abstract Administration of a P2Y 12 -receptor antagonist in addition to aspirin is mandatory in patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS) or undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) to reduce the occurrence of thrombotic events; however, their impact on mortality and stroke is unclear. We aimed to evaluate the influence of moderate (clopidogrel) or potent (prasugrel/ticagrelor) P2Y 12 -receptor inhibition on major cardiovascular outcomes among patients with ACS or undergoing PCI. Systematic literature search was performed to find randomised, controlled clinical trials comparing the clinical impact o...

Elevated lipoprotein (A), small APO (A), and the risk of arterial ischemic stroke in U.S. children.
CONCLUSIONS: Elevated Lp(a) and small apo(a) potently increase the risk of recurrent AIS in children, the mechanism for which is only partially attributable to impaired fibrinolysis. Collaborative studies are warranted to further investigate these findings, and more broadly to establish key risk factors for incident and recurrent arterial ischemic stroke in children.

Aspirin nonresponders in patients with ischaemic stroke
From previous studies, the prevalence of aspirin nonresponders is 5.5–45% in patients with various cardiovascular diseases. Those who have aspirin nonresponders have a greater risk of clinically cardiovascular events. The purpose of the study was to look for the prevalence, associated factors and the outcomes of aspirin nonresponders among patients with ischaemic stroke. Patients with ischaemic stroke who were treated during January 2011–August 2011 were included. Urine 11-dehydro-thromboxane B2 (dTXB2) was measured to determine the response to aspirin in patients. The demographics and vascular risk factors were compar...
