Intracerebral hemorrhage under platelet inhibition and oral anticoagulation in patients with cerebral amyloid angiopathy
Nervenarzt. 2021 Oct 15. doi: 10.1007/s00115-021-01206-w. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTOral anticoagulation in patients with cerebral amyloid angiopathy is a therapeutic challenge. The association of cerebral amyloid angiopathy with intracerebral hemorrhage, a high mortality of intracerebral hemorrhage especially under oral anticoagulation and the high risk of recurrent bleeding require a multidisciplinary approach and a thorough risk-benefit analysis. Vitamin K antagonists increase the risk of intracerebral bleeding and the accompanying mortality by 60% and should be avoided if possible or reserved for special clinical s...

Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura Without Schistocytes: Beware of Misdiagnosis
A 43-year-old woman was admitted for acute unusual headache, vertigo, and left upper limb weakness. She had been complaining of asthenia for the past few weeks. Her medical history included uterine cervix cancer treated with conisation and 2 pregnancies without serious complications. No allergy or recent drug introduction was noted. After ruling out current pregnancy, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was immediately performed and showed recent ischemic strokes in multiple territories. Doppler ultrasound imaging showed no carotid or vertebral arteries lesion. Electrocardiogram showed no ST elevation or atrial fibrillation, ...

Low vitamin D levels and the long ‐term functional outcome of stroke up to 5 years
ConclusionVitamin D level less than 38.4  nmol/L at admission is a potential risk biomarker for poor functional outcome at 5-year prognosis in AIS patients, which might provide new ideas for the prognostic assessment of stroke.

Neonatal seizures as onset of Inborn Errors of Metabolism (IEMs): from diagnosis to treatment. A systematic review
AbstractNeonatal seizures (NS) occur in the first 28  days of life; they represent an important emergency that requires a rapid diagnostic work-up to start a prompt therapy. The most common causes of NS include: intraventricular haemorrhage, hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy, hypoglycemia, electrolyte imbalance, neonatal stroke or central nervous syste m infection. Nevertheless, an Inborn Error of Metabolism (IEM) should be suspected in case of NS especially if these are resistant to common antiseizure drugs (ASDs) and with metabolic decompensation. Nowadays, Expanded Newborn Screening (ENS) has changed the natural history ...

Nutritional Supplementation of Naturally Occurring Vitamin D to Improve Hemorrhagic Stroke Outcomes
Vitamin D deficiency, if left untreated, is associated with bone disorders, cardiovascular damage, and an increased risk of ischemic stroke. While there are various nutritional options for the natural intake of vitamin D, we hope to elucidate the potential mechanisms dietary vitamin D may play in hemorrhagic stroke pathology. This scoping review outlines findings from studies relevant to the biochemical activity of vitamin D, the impact of vitamin D deficiency on hemorrhagic stroke outcomes, and the potential benefit of nutritional vitamin D on hemorrhagic stroke outcomes. Here, we analyze the relevant factors that can lea...

Association between Vitamin D and Risk of Stroke: A PRISMA-Compliant Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Conclusions: Our analysis indicated that lower circulating level of vitamin D was associated with an elevated risk of stroke, but extra supplement of vitamin D failed to show benefit in decreasing the risk of stroke. Further research and study are also needed to show the role of vitamin D in relation to stroke.Eur Neurol

Relationship between Chronic Kidney Disease, Time-in-Therapeutic Range, and Adverse Outcomes in Atrial Fibrillation: A post hoc Analysis from the AMADEUS Trial
Conclusion: Deteriorated renal function has a small negative impact on the quality of anticoagulation control with VKA which is linked to poor outcomes in AF. However, moderate renal failure itself was an independent risk factor for increased risk of stroke, major bleeding, and all-cause mortality amongst patients with AF.Cerebrovasc Dis

Warfarin Treatment Is Associated to Increased Internal Carotid Artery Calcification
Conclusions: Long-lasting warfarin anticoagulation associated with increased calcification of carotid atherosclerotic plaques, particularly in locations known to be the predilection sites of stroke-causing plaques. The clinical significance of this novel finding warrants further investigations.

Neurologic Manifestations of the Antiphospholipid Syndrome - an Update
Curr Neurol Neurosci Rep. 2021 Jun 14;21(8):41. doi: 10.1007/s11910-021-01124-z.ABSTRACTPURPOSE OF REVIEW: In recent years, the spectrum of neurological manifestations of antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) has been growing. We provide a critical review of the literature with special emphasis on presentation, proposed mechanisms of disease, and treatment of neurological involvement in APS.RECENT FINDINGS: Although stroke is the most common cause of neurological manifestations in patients with APS, other neurological disorders have been increasingly associated with the disease, including cognitive dysfunction, headache, and epi...
