Network pharmacology of Huatan Tongluo decoction and clinical effects of its combination with acupuncture in the treatment of stroke
CONCLUSION: The combination of Huatan Tongluo decoction and acupuncture can help patients with sequelae of stroke promote the regaining of neurological function, thus improving their movement and enhancing their abilities to perform daily living. Huatan Tongluo decoction can mediate the VEGF signaling pathway and other pathways to treat ischemic stroke.PMID:36505343 | PMC:PMC9730069

Tree-Based Risk Factor Identification and Stroke Level Prediction in Stroke Cohort Study
Conclusion. The results show that (1) the most important risk factors for stroke are hypertension, history of transient ischemia, and history of stroke; age and gender have a negligible impact. (2) The XGBoost model shows the best performance in predicting stroke risk; it also gives a ranking of risk factors based on their impact. (3) A combination of SHAP and XGBoost can be used to identify positive and negative factors and their interactions in stroke prediction, thereby providing helpful guidance for diagnosis.PMID:37078009 | PMC:PMC10110369 | DOI:10.1155/2023/7352191

Risk factors and their impact on carotid intima-media thickness in young and middle-aged ischemic stroke patients and controls: the Norwegian stroke in the young study
This study was conducted in 150 patients aged 15-60 years and 84 controls free of CVD. We related RF to ultrasonographic B-mode cIMT-measurements obtained from 12 standardized multiangle measurements in the common carotid artery (CCA), carotid bifurcation (BIF) and internal carotid artery (ICA). Results: RF burden was higher among patients than among controls (p

Factor V Leiden does not have a role in cryptogenic ischemic stroke among Iranian young adults.
CONCLUSIONS: Based on our study, FVL might not be considered as an independent risk factor for ischemic stroke in Iranian individuals who are not suffering from other risk factors of ischemic stroke. PMID: 24761388 [PubMed]

Relationship between polymorphisms in beta -2 adrenergic receptor gene and ischemic stroke in North Indian Population: a hospital based case control study
Conclusions: The findings of the present study suggest that Gln27Glu polymorphism of the ADRB2 gene may confer higher risk of large vessel disease stroke in a North Indian population. Prospective studies with larger sample size are required for independent validation.

Predictors of poststroke health-related quality of life in nigerian stroke survivors: a 1-year follow-up study.
This study aims to identify the predictors in the different aspects of the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and to measure the changes of functional status over time in a cohort of Nigerian stroke survivors. A prospective observational study was conducted in three hospitals of Kano state of Nigeria where stroke survivors receive rehabilitation. The linguistic-validated Hausa versions of the stroke impact scale 3.0, modified Rankin scale, Barthel index and Beck depression inventory scales were used. Paired samples t-test was used to calculate the amount of changes that occur over time and the forward stepwise linear r...

DWI-Based Neural Fingerprinting Technology: A Preliminary Study on Stroke Analysis.
Abstract Stroke is a common neural disorder in neurology clinics. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has become an important tool to assess the neural physiological changes under stroke, such as diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI). Quantitative analysis of MRI images would help medical doctors to localize the stroke area in the diagnosis in terms of structural information and physiological characterization. However, current quantitative approaches can only provide localization of the disorder rather than measure physiological variation of subtypes of ischemic stroke. In the current st...

Knowledge of signs and symptoms of heart attack and stroke among Singapore residents.
CONCLUSION: We found a comparable knowledge of stroke and heart attack signs and symptoms in the community to countries within the same economic, educational, and healthcare strata. However older persons, those with lower educational level and those who are unemployed/retired, require more public health education efforts. PMID: 24812623 [PubMed - indexed for MEDLINE]

Virtual Reality Training with Cognitive Load Improves Walking Function in Chronic Stroke Patients.
Abstract Virtual reality training is considered as an effective intervention method of stroke patients, and the virtual reality system for therapeutic rehabilitation has emphasized the cognitive factors to improve walking function. The purpose of current study was to investigate the effect of virtual reality training with cognitive load (VRTCL) on walking function of chronic stroke. Chronic stroke patients were randomly assigned to the VRTCL group (11 patients, including 5 men; mean age, 60.0 years; post-stroke duration, 273.9 days) or control group (11 patients, including 2 men; mean age, 58.6 years; post-stroke ...

NLRP3 inflammasome: a promising target in ischemic stroke
AbstractBackgroundRecently, several studies have demonstrated that the NLRP3 inflammasome participates in detecting cellular damage and mediating inflammatory responses to aseptic tissue injury following cerebral ischemia. More importantly, blocking or inhibiting NLRP3 inflammasome at multiple levels, such as its expression, assembly and activity, may offer substantial promise to salvage neurological deterioration during ischemic stroke. However, the specific mechanisms about the contribution of NLRP3 to neurovascular damage remain to be established.Materials and methodsIn this paper, we will review the molecular structure...
