Probabilistic graphical modelling using Bayesian networks for predicting clinical outcome after posterior decompression in patients with degenerative cervical myelopathy
CONCLUSIONS: The causal predictors of surgical outcome for DCM were sex, dementia and PreJOA score. Therefore, PGM may be a useful personalized medicine tool for predicting the outcome of patients with DCM.PMID:37435966 | DOI:10.1080/07853890.2023.2232999

Cerebellopontine angle meningioma in a patient presented as acute cerebrovascular accident
CONCLUSION: Although stroke is the main cause of sudden onset ataxia in a patient with cerebrovascular risk factors, yet other less common causes may be found as in this case of CPA meningioma.PMID:37427233 | PMC:PMC10328571 | DOI:10.1097/MS9.0000000000000928

Association of beta-2-microglobulin, cystatin C and lipocalin-2 with stroke risk in the general Chinese population
CONCLUSION: Elevated serum B2M, cystatin C and LCN-2 levels are associated with stroke risk. They may be novel biomarkers for clinicians to assess stroke risk.Key messagesSerum beta-2-microglobulin, cystatin C and lipocalin-2 levels are significantly associated with stroke risk.Beta-2-microglobulin, cystatin C and lipocalin-2 may serve as useful biomarkers for stroke risk stratification in the general population.PMID:37155257 | PMC:PMC10167872 | DOI:10.1080/07853890.2023.2203516

24-hour ambulatory blood pressure and cryptogenic ischemic stroke in young adults
CONCLUSIONS: Non-dipping patterns of BP were associated with CIS in the absence of a PFO but not in the absence of hypertension. This may reflect differing pathophysiology underlying CIS in patients with versus without a PFO. Due to limitations of the study, results regarding absolute ABP levels should be interpreted with caution.Key MessagesNocturnal non-dipping patterns of blood pressure were associated with cryptogenic ischemic stroke except in participants with a patent foramen ovale and in those without hypertension by any definition, which may indicate differing pathophysiology underlying cryptogenic ischemic stroke ...

Lateral medullary syndrome: uncommon form of brainstem stroke
CONCLUSION: LMS is a rare form of brainstem stroke and carries a favorable prognosis if early hospitalization and treatment is applied. Brain MRI, including diffusion sequence, is the most useful diagnostic tool for detecting LMS.PMID:36923779 | PMC:PMC10010825 | DOI:10.1097/MS9.0000000000000260

The relationship between glucose intolerance status and risk of hospitalization during two decades of follow-up: Tehran lipid and glucose study
CONCLUSION: Pre-diabetes, NDM, and KDM were associated with increased hospitalization rates during long-term follow-up. Interventions such as lifestyle modification or pharmacological therapies aiming to slow down the pre-diabetes and fair control of diabetes might potentially decrease the rate of hospitalization.Key messagesNDM and KDM status both increased rate of all-cause hospitalization.CVD and T2DM complication were the most common cause of hospitalization among patients with diabetes.Hospitalization due to recurrent CHD was significantly higher in men with diabetes than their female counterparts.PMID:36382719 | DOI:...

Simultaneous acute cardio-cerebral infarction associated with isolated left ventricle non-compaction cardiomyopathy
CONCLUSION: To the best of the author's knowledge, this is the first reported case of cardiocerebral infraction (CCI) in the setting of non-compaction left ventricle. Early and precise diagnosis is critical to the successful management of these conditions.PMID:36045823 | PMC:PMC9422203 | DOI:10.1016/j.amsu.2022.104172

Correlation between dietary selenium intake and stroke in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2003-2018
CONCLUSIONS: Dietary selenium had a negative and non-linear correlation with the risk of stroke in adults. The correlation varied across different population subgroups.KEY MESSAGESDietary selenium had a negative and non-linear correlation with the risk of stroke in adults.Non-linear negative correlation trends were observed in subpopulations of females, age <60 years, poverty-income ratio <2.14, overweight and obesity, hypertension, non-diabetes, and non-anaemia.Dietary selenium intake of approximately 105 μg per day has an optimum effect on stroke.PMID:35594240 | DOI:10.1080/07853890.2022.2058079
