Lipid-Modifying Therapies and Stroke Prevention
AbstractPurpose of ReviewWe reviewed lipid-modifying therapies and the risk of stroke and other cerebrovascular outcomes, with a focus on newer therapies.Recent FindingsStatins and ezetimibe reduce ischemic stroke risk without increasing hemorrhagic stroke risk. Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) inhibitors similarly reduce ischemic stroke risk in statin-treated patients with atherosclerosis without increasing hemorrhagic stroke, even with very low achieved low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels. Icosapent ethyl reduces the risk of total and first ischemic stroke in patients with established cardiova...

Predicting postoperative ischemic stroke problems in patients following coronary bypass surgery using neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio, platelet-lymphocyte ratio, and red blood cell distribution width values
CONCLUSIONS: In patients undergoing CABG, high preoperative PLR, NLR, and RDW values can be used as useful and independent risk factors for the prediction of postoperative ischemic stroke.PMID:35891995 | PMC:PMC9290396 | DOI:10.5114/kitp.2022.117499
