Predictors, timing, causes and cost of 30-day readmission after acute ischemic stroke: insights from a Chinese cohort 2015-2018
CONCLUSIONS: The findings highlight the importance of the readmission of ischemic stroke and corresponding policies and interventions, and our work could provide a potential manage path for the reduction of readmission rate.PMID:35876140 | DOI:10.1080/01616412.2022.2105489

Elevated troponin I levels on admission predict long-term mortality in patients with acute cerebral infarction following thrombolysis
ConclusionsEven after adjusting for several possible confounders, cTnI elevation in patients with ACI treated with rt-PA was associated with a 1.80-fold increased risk of 5-year mortality.

Can CHA2DS2-VASc and HAS –BLED Foresee the Presence of Cerebral Microbleeds, Lacunar and Non-Lacunar Infarcts in Elderly Patients With Atrial Fibrillation? Data From Strat–AF Study
Anticoagulants reduce embolic risk in atrial fibrillation (AF), despite increasing hemorrhagic risk. In this context, validity of congestive heart failure, hypertension, age ≥ 75 years, diabetes, stroke, vascular disease, age 65–74 years and sex category (CHA2DS2-VASc) and hypertension, abnormal renal/liver function, stroke, bleeding history or predisposition, labile international normalized ratio, elderly, drugs/alcohol concomitantly (HAS–BLED) scales, used to respectively evaluate thrombotic and hemorrhagic risks, is incomplete. In patients with AF, brain MRI has led to the increased detection of “asymptomatic”...

Disparities in Stroke Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Between Healthcare Systems in Brazil
ConclusionPatients assisted at a good quality public stroke center with the same protocol used in the private hospital presented worse disability as measured by mRS and patient-reported outcome measures, with greater inability to communicate, dress, toilet, feed, and walk.

Is Acute Ischemic Stroke Really Associated with Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction ? A Case-Control Study
Conclusions: Our study concluded that the prevalence of LVSD was the same in AIS patients and controls matched for age, sex, and AF prevalence, although the prevalence of LVSD was indeed higher in AIS patients without AF than in controls without AF.

Cardiovascular Outcomes in Sleep-Disordered Breathing: Are We Under-estimating?
Obstructive sleep apnea is a growing health concern, affecting nearly one billion people worldwide; increasingly recognized as an independent cardiovascular risk factor associated with incident obesity, insulin resistance, hypertension, arrhythmias, stroke, coronary artery disease, and heart failure. The prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea could be underestimated in the previous studies, leading to only modest predictions of cardiovascular outcomes. Using more physiologic data will increase sensitivity for the diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea. Individuals at high risk of obstructive sleep apnea should be identified s...

Taking the Obesity Paradox to New Heights in Cerebral Atherosclerosis
Obesity typically worsens many of the major cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors, such as elevating blood pressure, worsening dyslipidemia, increasing impaired plasma glucose metabolism (leading to metabolic syndrome and diabetes mellitus), and increasing systemic inflammation, increasing the risk of most CVD, including hypertension, coronary heart disease (CHD), heart failure, atrial fibrillation and cerebrovascular diseases.1 –3 However, in patients with established CVD, many studies published by my colleagues and I and others have demonstrated a consistent paradox, where obese patients with established CVD seem t...

Association Between Oral Anticoagulants and Stroke Severity at Onset in Elderly Patients with Cardioembolic Stroke Due to Non-Valvular Atrial Fibrillation
The prevention of cardioembolic stroke is an important public health priority in Japan due to its high prevalence in elderly individuals. Compared to their younger counterparts, elderly patients with cardioembolic stroke are more likely to have multiple comorbidities, a higher risk of serious complications, such as pneumonia and heart failure, and cognitive impairments (e.g., dementia or delirium), which may adversely affect their ability to participate in active rehabilitation. These factors negatively affect clinical outcomes, and many elderly stroke survivors require long-term care despite the early implementation of intensive therapy.

Sodium-Glucose Co-Transporter-2 Inhibitors Decrease the Odds for Atrial Fibrillation in Subjects with Heart Failure
Ong et al. have shown in their very informative, recently published meta-analysis that sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors result in a significant decrease in the odds for atrial fibrillation (AF) regardless of status of diabetes mellitus or cardiovascular disease at baseline.1 However, the authors failed to show that this effect is sustained in subjects with heart failure (HF).1

Risk Estimation of Infectious and Inflammatory Disorders in Hospitalized Patients With Acute Ischemic Stroke Using Clinical-Lab Nomogram
Conclusions: The clinical-lab nomogram predicted IAID in patients with acute ischemic stroke. As a result, this nomogram can be used for identification of high-risk patients and to further guide clinical decisions.

Differences between Atrial Fibrillation Detected before and after Stroke and TIA: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Conclusions: We found significant differences in the prevalence of vascular comorbidities, structural heart disease, and stroke recurrence rates between AFDAS and KAF, suggesting that they constitute different clinical entities within the AF spectrum. PROSPERO registration number is CRD42020202622.Cerebrovasc Dis

Biochemical aspirin resistance in acute stroke patients and its association with clinical factors: a prospective pilot study
CONCLUSIONS: Patients aged 76 and more can be more likely aspirin resistant than younger patients. We believe that especially in the elderly with congestive heart failure there is a strong need for further investigations in this field, including searching for alternative antiplatelet therapies.PMID:34628792 | DOI:10.5114/fn.2021.109434
