Effect of Acute Stroke Care Regionalization on Intravenous Alteplase Use in Two Urban Counties.
Conclusions: Our findings suggest that greater post-regionalization improvements in San Mateo County contributed to significantly better county-level thrombolysis use than Santa Clara County. PMID: 31599705 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Elevated visceral adiposity index is associated with increased stroke prevalence and earlier age at first stroke onset: Based on a national cross-sectional study
ConclusionAlthough a causal relationship cannot be proven, higher VAI was positively associated with stroke prevalence and can lead to earlier stroke onset.

Thyroid hormones and functional outcomes after ischemic stroke
Conclusions This study found that lower levels of free T3 were associated with poorer outcomes at hospital discharge, and at 3 and 12 months post stroke, however, these associations diminished after correction for other known predictors of stroke outcome. Thyroid hormones have a complex relationship with ischemic stroke and stroke recovery, which merits further larger investigations.

The impact of parental risk factors on the risk of stroke in type 1 diabetes
ConclusionA history of maternal stroke increases the risk of hemorrhagic stroke in individuals with type 1 diabetes. Other parental risk factors seem to have limited impact on the risk of stroke.

Relationship of the metabolic score for insulin resistance and the risk of stroke in patients with hypertension: A cohort study
ConclusionsThis cohort study suggests a relationship between METS-IR and the risk of stroke and ischemic stroke. Further studies are required to elucidate the underlying mechanisms.

Sepsis as an independent risk factor in atrial fibrillation and cardioembolic stroke
ConclusionOur study revealed the association between electrolyte disorder and stroke in sepsis patients, and the correlation between genetic susceptibility to sepsis and increased risk of cardioembolic stroke, hinting that cardiogenic diseases and accompanying electrolyte disorder interference in due course could help sepsis patients get more benefits in stroke prevention.

Effect of diabetes on hospitalization for ischemic stroke and related in‐hospital mortality: a study in Tuscany, Italy, over years 2004–2011
ConclusionsIn the last decade, the incidence of ischemic stroke and of related in‐hospital mortality declined in persons without diabetes, while increasing among diabetic patients of advanced age. Women with diabetes, compared with men, had a higher in‐hospital mortality risk. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Subclinical Hypothyroidism and the Risk of Stroke Events and Fatal Stroke: An Individual Participant Data Analysis.
CONCLUSIONS: Although no overall effect of subclinical hypothyroidism on stroke could be demonstrated, an increased risk in subjects younger than 65 years and those with higher TSH concentrations was observed. PMID: 25856213 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Prospective Prehospital Evaluation of the Cincinnati Stroke Triage Assessment Tool.
CONCLUSION: In this pilot prospective evaluation performed in the prehospital setting by EMS providers without formalized training, C-STAT is comparable to other published tools in test characteristics and may inform appropriate CSC triage beyond LVO ascertainment alone.

Carotid intima-media thickness in plaque-free area, carotid plaque and risk of ischemic stroke in high-risk population of North China.
CONCLUSION: Screening of carotid artery especially for carotid artery plaques should be taken into consideration among people with high risk of ischemic stroke. PMID: 28759189 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

The Need to Prioritize Education of the Public Regarding Stroke Symptoms and Faster Activation of the 9-1-1 System: Findings from the Florida-Puerto Rico CReSD Stroke Registry.
CONCLUSIONS: Following acute stroke onset, time elapsed for EMS response and transport is relatively short compared to the lengthy intervals elapsing between symptom onset and 9-1-1 system activation, regardless of demographics. Exploration of innovative strategies to improve public education regarding stroke symptoms and immediate 9-1-1 system activation are strongly recommended.

Potential Impact of C-STAT for Prehospital Stroke Triage Up to 24  Hours on a Regional Stroke System.
Conclusions: Preferential triage of prehospital suspected stroke patients using C-STAT would increase the number of patients transported to the CSC by 11% within six hours and an additional 10% from six to 24 hours. For every patient with LVO as final diagnosis, approximately an additional 6 non-LVO patients would be triaged to a CSC. PMID: 31580180 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Non-linear dose-response relationship between body mass index and stroke risk in middle-aged and elderly Chinese men: a nationwide Longitudinal Cohort Study from CHARLS
ConclusionIn men, there was a specific non-linear association and saturation effect of BMI with stroke (inflection point of 25.94 kg/m2), while in women, there was none. When males had a BMI below 25.94 kg/m2, the risk of stroke was significantly and positively associated with BMI. By controlling BMI below 25.94 kg/m2 in men, a further decrease in BMI may promote a significant reduction in stroke risk.

Decrease of thyroid function after ischemic stroke is related to stroke severity
ConclusionThere is a transient decrease of thyroid hormones after ischemic stroke, possibly driven by stroke severity. Larger studies are needed to validate these findings. Correction of thyroid function in acute stroke may be investigated to improve stroke outcomes.

Blood Pressure and Stroke Risk among Diabetic Patients.
Conclusions:The current study suggests a U-shaped association between blood pressure and the risk of stroke. Aggressive BP control (<110/65 mmHg) and high blood pressure (≥160/100 mmHg) are associated with an increased risk of stroke among both African American and white patients with type 2 diabetes.
