Knowledge and awareness of stroke and associated factors in the Saudi general population: a cross-sectional study
ConclusionOur study revealed that participants have good knowledge about stroke. Nonetheless, further efforts are required to raise awareness and educate the public to optimize and ensure better treatment outcomes.

Protein kinase D2 confers neuroprotection by promoting AKT and CREB activation in ischemic stroke
In this study, we found that PKD2 expression and activity were significantly upregulated in the ipsilateral side of the brain after transient focal cerebral ischemia, which coincides with the upregulation of PKD2 in primary neurons in response to in vitro ischemia, implying a potential role of PKD2 in neuronal survival in ischemic stroke. Using kinase-dead PKD2 knock-in (PKD2-KI) mice, we examined whether loss of PKD2 activity affected stroke outcomes in mice subjected to 1 h of transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAO) and 24 h of reperfusion. Our data demonstrated that PKD2-KI mice exhibited larger infarction vo...

Rhein attenuates cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury via inhibition of ferroptosis through NRF2/SLC7A11/GPX4 pathway
CONCLUSION: Rhein attenuates cerebral I/R injury by inhibiting ferroptosis via the NRF2/SLC7A11/GPX4 axis, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic agent for ischemic stroke.PMID:37714424 | DOI:10.1016/j.expneurol.2023.114541

A rehabilitative approach beyond the acute stroke event: a scoping review about functional recovery perspectives in the chronic hemiplegic patient
ConclusionThe literature analyzed invites us to reflect respect to neurorehabilitation approach to the patient with chronic stroke sequelae often considered to have as its objective the maintenance of the present motor function and contain disability: instead, the review reports how, even in chronicity, the patient always reports margins of statistically and clinically significant improvement. The chronic stroke rehabilitation over 6 months has been proved effective in obtaining recovery in different settings.

Corticospinal tract: a new hope for the treatment of post-stroke spasticity
AbstractStroke is the third leading cause of death and disability worldwide. Post-stroke spasticity (PSS) is the most common complication of stroke but represents only one of the many manifestations of upper motor neuron syndrome. As an upper motor neuron, the corticospinal tract (CST) is the only direct descending motor pathway that innervates the spinal motor neurons and is closely related to the recovery of limb function in patients with PSS. Therefore, promoting axonal remodeling in the CST may help identify new therapeutic strategies for PSS. In this review, we outline the pathological mechanisms of PSS, specifically ...

Sensory deficits of the paretic and non-paretic upper limbs relate with the motor recovery of the poststroke subjects
CONCLUSION: In stroke, sensory deficits relate weakly with the recovery of the paretic upper limb and can predict recovery potential of the paretic upper limb.PMID:37690032 | DOI:10.1080/10749357.2023.2253629
