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.

COVID-19 Impact on Stroke Admissions during France ’s First Epidemic Peak: An Exhaustive, Nationwide, Observational Study
Conclusion: Stroke hospitalizations in France experienced a decline during the first lockdown period, which cannot be explained by a sudden change in stroke incidence. This decline is therefore likely to be a direct, or indirect, result of the COVID-19 pandemic.Cerebrovasc Dis

Changes in Stroke Patients ’ Health-Seeking Behavior by COVID-19 Epidemic Regions: Data from the Korean Stroke Registry
Conclusion: Korean stroke patients in a CO ­VID-19 epidemic region exhibited distinct changes in health-seeking behaviors. Appropriate triage system and public education regarding the importance of early treatment are needed during the COVID-19 pandemic.Cerebrovasc Dis

Air pollution and humidity as triggering factors for stroke. Results of a 12-year analysis in the West Paris area.
CONCLUSIONS: This study suggests that short-term exposure to air pollution and a high level of humidity are associated with a significant excess relative risk of calls for suspected stroke. PMID: 31030900 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Adolescent weight gain confers long-term increased stroke risk: Weighty matters
Adult obesity has been consistently associated with risk of total, ischemic, and hemorrhagic stroke1–3; however, the degree to which change in weight and body mass index (BMI) during late childhood and adolescence affects adult risk of stroke has remained uncertain. Understanding this relationship is of particular importance given the rising obesity epidemic during childhood and adolescence.

Obesity Increases Risk of Ischemic Stroke in Young Adults Brief Reports
Conclusions— These results indicate that obesity is a risk factor for young onset ischemic stroke and suggest that this association may be partially mediated through hypertension, diabetes mellitus, or other variables associated with these conditions.

Comparison of major modifiable stroke risk factors associated with lacunar strokes in anterior and posterior circulation in multiethnic cohort (P7.143)
CONCLUSIONS: Hypertriglyceridemia may be associated with posterior circulation SVD. In the setting of the obesity epidemic, hypertriglyceridemia prevalence is increasing; therefore, we might expect a concomitant increase in the incidence of posterior circulation strokes.Disclosure: Dr. Bulic has nothing to disclose.

Profile and determinants of vascular cognitive impairment in African stroke survivors: The CogFAST Nigeria Study
Sub-Saharan Africa faces a potential epidemic of non-communicable diseases including stroke and dementia but little is known about the burden of stroke-related cognitive dysfunction. We assessed the baseline profile and factors associated with vascular cognitive impairment (VCI) in stroke survivors participating in the Cognitive Function After STroke (CogFAST) Nigeria Study.

Comment: Intracerebral hemorrhage incidence declines, but it is still highly fatal
Overall stroke mortality has declined over the last decades—a welcome trend.1 However, recent trends in intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) incidence are not as clear. On the one hand, there has been increasingly good population control of hypertension; on the other hand, there is increasing use of anticoagulants and antithrombotic drugs, an epidemic of obesity and diabetes, and changing racial and ethnic demographics.

Nox2-Derived Superoxide Contributes to Cerebral Vascular Dysfunction in Diet-Induced Obesity Basic Sciences
Conclusions— Endothelial dysfunction produced by a HFD occurs in a temporal manner and appears much earlier in cerebral arterioles than in carotid arteries. Genetic studies revealed that Nox2-derived superoxide plays a major role in endothelial dysfunction produced by a HFD. Such functional changes may serve to predispose blood vessels to reduced vasodilator responses and thus may contribute to alterations in cerebral blood flow associated with obesity.

Stroke in rural coastal Ecuador: a community‐based survey
Stroke will be South America's next epidemic. Therefore, information on stroke particularities in the region will help to overcome its impact burden. We evaluated prevalence, pattern of sub‐types, and pathogenic mechanisms underlying stroke in Atahualpa, a village representative of rural coastal Ecuador. In a three‐phase epidemiologic study, suspected cases were detected by a door‐to‐door survey (Phase I). Then, neurologists evaluated suspected cases and randomly selected negative persons (Phase II), and confirmed patients underwent complementary exams (Phase III). We found 20 stroke patients (mean age 70 years, 60...
