Poor enhancement pattern of left atrial appendage in cardiac computed tomography is associated with stroke in persistent atrial fibrillation patients.
Conclusions: The LAA enhancement pattern observed using cardiac CT is associated with the risk of stroke. Poor enhancement in the LAA suggests a potential high risk of stroke. PMID: 31559034 [PubMed]

Acute stroke and TIA patients have specific polygraphic features of obstructive sleep apnea
ConclusionStroke patients had different characteristics of respiratory events, i.e., their polygraphic phenotype of  OSA differs compared to matched reference patients. The observed differences in polygraphic features might indicate that stroke and TIA patients suffer from OSA phenotype recently associated with increased cardiovascular mortality. Therefore, optimal diagnostics and treatment require routine OSA screening in patients with acute cerebrovascular disease, even without previous suspicion of OSA.

Sleep-disordered breathing and cerebral small vessel disease —acute and 6 months after ischemic stroke
In conclusion, 6  months after stroke, AHI decreased, but 44% still had AHI ≥ 15. Persistent SDB in both the acute state and at follow-up was associated with a higher SVD score, but not to the TOAST subgroups. SDB evaluation should be offered to stroke patients, and the effect of SDB on cerebral small vessel disease needs to be further investigated using the well-defined SVD score.Trial registrationclinicaltrials.gov NCT02111408, April 11, 2014

Restless legs syndrome/Willis –Ekbom disease among patients with resistant hypertension versus stroke patients—a prospective study
ConclusionThis study demonstrated a  high prevalence of RLS among patients with resistant hypertension. RLS characteristics are different from those in patients with stroke, and very similar to primary RLS.

Pulse-rate variability during sleep studies predicts stroke risk in patients with obstructive sleep apnea
Conclusion: In patients investigated for clinical suspicion of OSA, PRV derived from oximetry during sleep studies allows a reliable prediction of stroke incidence: patients with marked low sympathetic/parasympathetic tone, expressed as a decrease in the LF/HF ratio, were at higher risk of stroke.

Sleep-disordered breathing and ventilatory chemosensitivity in first ischaemic stroke patients: a prospective cohort study
Conclusion SDB in first-time stroke patients differ in their presentation by their respective clinical traits and ventilatory chemosensitivity characteristics. The heightened hypercapnic ventilatory response in coexisting and central sleep apnoea stroke patients may orientate them to specific ventilatory support.

Adherence to positive airway pressure therapy initiated in the early subacute phase of ischemic stroke: a PRESS study follow-up
ConclusionsLess than half of the stroke subjects remained adherent to PAP therapy at 6  months post-PAP initiation. Special attention to support adaptation and adherence to PAP treatment is needed in this group of patients.

Assessment of incidence of cerebral vascular diseases and prediction of stroke risk in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients using multimodal biomarkers
ConclusionCOPD patients had an increased risk for stroke that could be assessed on stroke risk screening instruments, DTI, T2 star, duplex sonography, and laboratory investigation and could be correlated with the severity of the disease.

Up-to-date advance in the relationship between OSA and stroke: a narrative review
ConclusionBoth the onset and recurrence of stroke closely correlated with OSA, but the specific mechanisms remain unclear. Further studies should be carried out to explore effective treatments in patients with stroke and OSA.

The effects of inhaled respiratory drugs on the risk of stroke: A nested case-control study
Publication date: October 2016 Source:Pulmonary Pharmacology & Therapeutics, Volume 40 Author(s): Chang-Hoon Lee, Seongmi Choi, Eun Jin Jang, Dong-Wook Kim, Ho Il Yoon, Yun Jung Kim, Jimin Kim, Jae-Joon Yim, Deog Kyeom Kim Although there have been concerns that inhaled long-acting muscarinic antagonists increase the risk of stroke, controversies exist. We investigated whether respiratory drugs including long-acting muscarinic antagonists are associated with the risk of stroke. A nested case-control study using the nationwide insurance claims database of the Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service (Seoul, Re...

Reliability of three respiratory muscle tests in post-stroke patients. A pilot study
Conclusion: The pilot data show a good inter-rater reliability of all 3 measures, but SNIP may require a practice session in stroke patients.
