Jamaican Susumber Berry Poisoning Mimicking Acute Stroke
Conclusions: SB toxicity can cause neurological symptoms that mimic an acute stroke typically with a posterior circulation symptom complex. Altered SB toxins (from post-harvest stressors or temperature changes) might stimulate muscarinic/nicotinic cholinergic receptors or inhibit acetylcholinesterase, causing gastrointestinal, neurological, and autonomic symptoms. In cases of multiple patients presenting simultaneously to the ED with stroke-like symptoms or when stroke-like symptoms fail to localize, a toxicological etiology (such as SB toxicity) should be considered.Cerebrovasc Dis

Relation of Intracranial Stenosis and Elevated Carotid Intimal Medial Thickness in Black Caribbean Ischemic Stroke Patients (P03.187)
CONCLUSIONS: Our preliminary results suggest that increased MCA velocity is independent elevated CIMT, a biomarker for atherosclerosis, in anterior circulation ischemic stroke in CBs. History of hypercholesterolemia appears to be an important risk factor in atherosclerosis in CBs. This data suggests further prospective studies of MCA stenosis mechanisms in CBs are warranted.Disclosure: Dr. Law has nothing to disclose. Dr. Hao has nothing to disclose.

Diabetes drug may prevent recurring strokes
Pioglitazone, a drug used for type 2 diabetes, may prevent recurrent stroke and heart attacks in people with insulin resistance but without diabetes. The results of the Insulin Resistance Intervention after Stroke (IRIS) trial, presented at the International Stroke Conference 2016 in Los Angeles and published in the New England Journal of Medicine, suggest a potential new method to prevent stroke and heart attack in high-risk patients who have already had one stroke or transient ischemic attack.

Correspondence Complexity of the endovascular intervention and clinical outcomes in acute ischaemic stroke
We were particularly interested in the paper by Khatri and colleagues on time to angiographic reperfusion and clinical outcome after acute ischaemic stroke in the Interventional Management of Stroke phase 3 trial (IMS III). We obtained similar results (the odds ratio of favourable outcome [modified Rankin scale 0–1] was significantly decreased by the delay of endovascular treatment conclusion) in the SYNTHESIS Expansion trial, the findings of which were presented at the European Stroke Conference (May 6–9, 2014) but have not yet been submitted for publication.

Editorial The stroke care revolution
After the release of findings from highly anticipated trials at this year's International Stroke Conference in Nashville (TN, USA; Feb 10–13), attendees could not hide their enthusiasm. The excitement seems justified: endovascular therapy can improve functional outcomes in selected patients with stroke and might revolutionise standard care.
