Application of vagus nerve stimulation on the rehabilitation of upper limb dysfunction after stroke: a systematic review and meta-analysis
ConclusionVNS is an effective and safe treatment for upper extremity motor dysfunction after a stroke. For the functional restoration of the upper extremities, noninvasive integrated therapy and lower-frequency VNS may be more effective. In the future, further high-quality studies with larger study populations, more comprehensive indicators, and thorough data are required to advance the clinical application of VNS.Systematic review registrationhttps://www.crd.york.ac.uk/prospero/, identifier: CRD42023399820.

Effects of community ambulation training with 3D-printed ankle –foot orthosis on gait and functional improvements: a case series of three stroke survivors
IntroductionMany of the patients using ankle–foot orthoses (AFOs) experience poor fit, pain, discomfort, dislike of the aesthetics of the device, and excessive range of motion restrictions, which diminish the use of AFOs. Although 3D-printed ankle–foot orthoses (3D-AFOs) affect patient satisfaction and overall gait functions such as ankle moment, joint range of motion (ROM), and temporal-spatial parameters, the material properties and manufacturing process of 3D-AFOs are still diverse; the clinical effects of community ambulation using 3D-AFOs and satisfaction in patients with stroke are poorly understood.Case descript...

Predictive model, miRNA-TF network, related subgroup identification and drug prediction of ischemic stroke complicated with mental disorders based on genes related to gut microbiome
ConclusionThrough comprehensive analysis, a diagnostic prediction model with good effect was obtained. Both the training group (AUC 0.82, CI 0.93–0.71) and the verification group (AUC 0.81, CI 0.90–0.72) had a good phenotype in the qRT-PCR test. And in verification group 2 we validated between the two groups with and without carotid-related ischemic cerebrovascular events (AUC 0.87, CI 1–0.64). MiRNA (hsa-mir-129-2-3p, has-mir-335-5p, and has-mir-16-5p) and TFs (CREB1, FOXL1), which may be related to IS, were obtained.

Effects of low-frequency rTMS combined with antidepressants on depression in patients with post-stroke depression: a systematic review and meta-analysis
ConclusionThe results of this meta-analysis evidenced the efficacy and safety of low-rTMS combined with antidepressants in the treatment of depression in PSD patients. The combined therapy could reduce The depression state and the levels of IL-6 and TNF-α, and enhance the cognitive function of patients. In addition, low-rTMS had fewer adverse effects, proving safety. However, there are shortcomings, such as a lack of long-term follow-up, different intervention sites of low-rTMS, and different intervention frequencies (0.5 or 1 Hz). Thus, in the future, RCTs with a larger sample size and longer-term observation are require...

Association between hysterectomy status and stroke risk and cause-specific and all-cause mortality: evidence from the 2005 –2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey
ConclusionOur study found a significant association between hysterectomy and stroke, even after adjusting for other factors that could impact risk, such as the American Heart Association (AHA)'s Life's Simple 7 cardiovascular health score and variables of age, ethnicity, marital status, income, education, and depression severity.

Lasting impairments following transient ischemic attack and minor stroke: a systematic review protocol
IntroductionThe focus on medical management and secondary prevention following Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA) and minor stroke is well-established. Evidence is emerging that people with TIA and minor stroke can experience lasting impairments as fatigue, depression, anxiety, cognitive impairment, and communication difficulties. These impairments are often underrecognized and inconsistently treated. Research in this area is developing rapidly and an updated systematic review is required to evaluate new evidence as it emerges. This living systematic review aims to describe the prevalence of lasting impairments and how they a...

The Future of Ischemic Stroke Diagnosis and a Review of Underrecognized Ischemic Stroke Etiologies
AbstractAccurate ischemic stroke etiologic determination and diagnosis form the foundation of excellent cerebrovascular care as from it stems initiation of the appropriate secondary prevention strategy as well as appropriate patient education regarding specific risk factors for that subtype. Recurrent stroke rates are highest among those patients who receive an incorrect initial stroke diagnosis. Patient distrust and patient reported depression are also higher. The cause of the ischemic stroke also informs predicted patient outcomes and the anticipated recovery trajectory. Finally, determining the accurate cause of the isc...

Ramelteon improves blood-brain barrier of focal cerebral ischemia rats to prevent post-stroke depression via upregulating occludin
This study explored the effects of ramelteon with prophylactic administration on blood-brain barrier in rats with middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) and the oxygen-glucose deprivation/reperfusion (OGD/R) bEnd.3 cells and found that ramelteon pretreatment improved the depressive-like behaviors and decreased infarct area in MCAO rats. Also, this study found ramelteon pretreatment improved viability and inhibited permeability in OGD/R cells. In addition, this study found that MCP-1, TNF-α, and IL-1 levels were raised in the MCAO rats and that occludin protein and mRNA levels were decreased in the MCAO and the OGD/R mode...

Global research trends on COVID-19 and stroke: A bibliometric analysis
ConclusionOur bibliometric analysis provides a comprehensive overview of the current state of research on COVID-19 and stroke and highlights key areas of focus in the field. Optimizing the treatment of COVID-19-infected stroke patients and elucidating the underlying pathogenic mechanisms of COVID-19 and stroke co-morbidity are key areas of future research that will be beneficial in improving the prognosis of stroke patients during the ongoing COVID-19 epidemic.

The factors associated with the deterioration of activities of daily life in stroke patients: A retrospective cohort study
CONCLUSIONS: Nearly 1 in 5 stroke patients with independent mobility experienced ADL deterioration at 2 years after discharge. Aging, vascular risk factors>3, BBS at discharge, and post-stroke depression (PSD) were identified as factors associated with ADL deterioration.PMID:36961229 | DOI:10.1080/10749357.2023.2194095
