Blood biomarkers for physical recovery in ischemic stroke: a systematic review.
Authors: Lai YJ, Hanneman SK, Casarez RL, Wang J, McCullough LD Abstract Stroke is a common cause of physical disability. Biomarkers have been used to predict prognosis in ischemic stroke, but studies linking biomarkers to physical recovery from ischemic stroke have not been systematically evaluated since 2011. The purpose of this paper is to report the findings of a systematic review of the intervening literature to identify potential predictive biomarkers for recovery of physical function following ischemic stroke. The PubMed, Embase, and CINAHL databases were searched for studies reported between January 1, 2011...

Prevalence of Stroke Cases in Warangal, Telangana Region, India: A Hospital-Based Case Study.
Authors: Susmitha K, Chandrasekhar V, Kiran G, Divya A, Rani GS, Sarangapani M Abstract Stroke is becoming a main cause of early death and disability in developing countries like India, and it is mostly enhanced by increased predominance of major risk factors. A detailed knowledge about the nature and magnitude of the stroke cases in this particular area is not only important for acute treatment but also it helps to prevent hospital admissions due to reoccurring stroke. The present study was conducted in the Department of Stroke at MGM Hospital, Warangal, India, to study the patterns of stroke admissions. All the c...

Systematic Review of Existing Stroke Guidelines: Case for a Change
CONCLUSIONS: This systematic review has identified a significant evidence-practice gap in all existing national stroke guidelines published in English medium as of October 2020. These guidelines included the only current "living stroke guidelines," stroke guidelines from Australia with a real opportunity to modernize the living stroke guidelines with systems biology approach, and provide 2020 vision towards better stroke care globally. Investigation of complex disease such as stroke is best served through a systems biology approach. One of the easiest places to start is simple blood tests such as total white cell count and...

Similarity of patient characteristics and outcomes in consecutive data collection on stroke admissions over one month compared to longer periods
Conclusions: Stroke patients admitted in one month had largely indistinguishable characteristics and discharge outcomes to those admitted to the same trusts in three separate seasons and also over two years in this cohort.

Early prediction and outcome of septic encephalopathy in acute stroke patients with nosocomial coma.
CONCLUSION: High fever and severe SIRS are two early predictors of stroke patients with SE, and survival rates were worse in stroke patients with SE than those without SE. PMID: 26015818 [PubMed]

Stroke induces a rapid adaptive autoimmune response to novel neuronal antigens.
Authors: Ortega SB, Noorbhai I, Poinsatte K, Kong X, Anderson A, Monson NL, Stowe AM Abstract Stroke affects millions of people worldwide every year. Despite this prevalence, mechanisms of long-term injury and repair within the ischemic brain are still understudied. Sterile inflammation occurs in the injured brain after stroke, with damaged tissue exposing central nervous system (CNS)-derived antigen that could initiate potential autoimmune responses. We used a standard immunology-based recall response assay for murine immune cells, isolated from the cervical lymph nodes and spleen after transient stroke, to determ...

Soluble Urokinase-type Plasminogen Activator Receptor Predicts All-cause 5-Year Mortality in Ischemic Stroke and TIA
Conclusion: Elevated plasma suPAR concentrations predicted all-cause mortality during the 5-year follow-up after ischemic stroke. suPAR was not able to differentiate patients with cardioembolic stroke from those with other stroke types.

Values of vanillylmandelic acid and homovanillic acid in the urine as potential prognostic biomarkers in ischaemic stroke patients.
CONCLUSION: Determining the values of these compounds in the urine is an easily available prognostic tool for the ischaemic stroke outcome, while also influencing potential therapeutic changes. PMID: 28675313 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Genetic Variant of Kalirin Gene Is Associated with Ischemic Stroke in a Chinese Han Population.
CONCLUSIONS: Our results provide evidence that kalirin gene variations were associated with ischemic stroke in the Chinese Han population. PMID: 28706949 [PubMed - in process]

International practice in care provision for post-stroke visual impairment.
CONCLUSIONS: In international orthoptic practice, there is general agreement on assessment and management of visual impairment in stroke populations. More than half of orthoptists reported seeing stroke survivors within 1 month of the stroke onset, typically in eye clinics. There was a high use of validated tests of visual acuity, visual fields, ocular motility, and binocular vision. Similarly there was high use of established treatment options including prisms, occlusion, compensatory strategies, and oculomotor training, appropriately targeted at specific types of visual conditions/symptoms. This information can be used t...

Pentraxin-3 in Thrombolytic Therapy for Acute Ischemic Stroke: No Relation with Curative Effect and Prognosis.
CONCLUSIONS PTX3 is not suitable to serve as an indicator of thrombolytic efficacy and had no association with long-term prognosis in stroke patients receiving thrombolytic therapy. PMID: 29949524 [PubMed - in process]

Evaluation of Pathological Association between Stroke-Related QTL and Salt-Induced Renal Injury in Stroke-Prone Spontaneously Hypertensive Rat.
Abstract The stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHRSP) suffers from severe hypertension and hypertensive organ damage such as cerebral stroke and kidney injury under salt-loading. By a quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis between SHRSP and SHR (the stroke-resistant parental strain of SHRSP), two major QTLs for stroke susceptibility were identified on chromosomes 1 and 18 of SHRSP, which were confirmed in congenic strains constructed between SHRSP and SHR. As the progression of renal dysfunction was suggested to be one of the key factors inducing stroke in SHRSP, we examined effects of the stroke-relat...
