Blood Pressure Management After Successful Thrombectomy
Despite the success of endovascular therapy (EVT) in acute ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion, opportunities to further optimize clinical outcomes remain. One such avenue is to reduce hemorrhagic transformation in the infarcted tissue bed after successful reperfusion, which has been shown to be associated with worsened clinical outcomes. Because higher cerebral perfusion pressures may foster hemorrhagic transformation, it has been hypothesized that lowering systemic blood pressure (BP) after successful reperfusion could decrease cerebral hemorrhagic complications. Reducing systemic BP may also lead to a decrease...

Blood Pressure Management After Endovascular Therapy for Stroke
This randomized clinical trial evaluates whether moderately lowering systolic blood pressure, compared with a higher target, in the first 24 hours after successful endovascular treatment for acute ischemic stroke is futile.

Effectiveness of a smartphone-enabled dyadic self-care programme (SDSCP) for stroke survivors and caregivers: study protocol for a randomised controlled trial
This study has been approved by the Ethics Committee of Zhengzhou University (ZZUIRB 2021–115) in January 2021. The results achieved in this study will facilitate the clinical practice to improve self-care of stroke survivors and promote dyadic health outcomes for stroke patients and caregivers. Trial registration number The study was registered with the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry and the registration number is ChiCTR2100053591.

Temporal trends of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in Denmark: a nationwide retrospective cohort study
Conclusion There was a consistent rise in HCM cases with decreasing morbidity burden. Females were older at diagnosis and more likely to have their type of HCM classified as obstructive. The rate of outpatient follow-up is increasing.

Community Socioeconomic and Urban-Rural Disparities in Prehospital Notification of Stroke by Emergency Medical Services in North Carolina
CONCLUSIONS: Across a large, diverse population, EMS prenotification occurred in only one-third of suspected stroke patients. Furthermore, low SES and rural tracts were independently associated with a lower likelihood of prehospital notification. These findings suggest the need for education and quality improvement initiatives to increase EMS stroke prenotification, particularly in underserved communities.PMID:37657786 | DOI:10.14423/SMJ.0000000000001601
