Outcome of transcatheter atrial septal defect closure in a nationwide cohort
CONCLUSION: After TC closure of ASD, patients had a higher risk of new-onset atrial fibrillation and migraine than controls without ASD. As novel findings, we found an increased risk for ischemic heart disease, AV conduction disorders, and ventricular fibrillation/tachycardia.Key messagesEven though patients have an excellent overall prognosis after percutaneous ASD closure, the increased incidence of major comorbidities like atrial fibrillation and heart failure prompts more thorough lifelong follow-up.This study's novel findings revealed the increased risk for ischemic heart disease, AV conduction disorders, or ventricul...

Clinical profile and risk factors of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) in Sudan: A multicenter cross-sectional study
CONCLUSION: Cerebral Venous Sinus Thrombosis is mainly a disease of child-bearing women, although significant proportions of men were affected. Cerebral Venous Sinus Thrombosis presents in a wide variety of signs and symptoms.PMID:36536723 | PMC:PMC9758368 | DOI:10.1016/j.amsu.2022.104891

Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis as a complication of COVID-19 infection - A case report
CONCLUSION: High index of suspicion of CVST is necessary when a patient presents with unexplained neurological manifestation following a recent COVID-19 infection to prevent from life-threatening complications. Furthermore, clinicians should not underestimate the multisystem involvement of COVID-19.PMID:35127077 | PMC:PMC8800506 | DOI:10.1016/j.amsu.2022.103326

Recurrent migraine with binocular transient vision loss associated with acute stroke: A case report
CONCLUSION: Recurrent migraine with TBVL can be associated with acute stroke. It thus merits urgent evaluation and referral to the relevant department for a better outcome.PMID:34917346 | PMC:PMC8646124 | DOI:10.1016/j.amsu.2021.103062

Ischemic stroke revealing COVID-19 infection: Case report
CONCLUSION: SARS-COV 2 infection can spread from the respiratory system to the central nervous system, resulting in an inflammatory response and excessive secretion of inflammatory markers, leading to ischemic stroke.PMID:34631044 | PMC:PMC8492013 | DOI:10.1016/j.amsu.2021.102912

MicroRNA profiling in migraine without aura: pilot study.
CONCLUSION: A specific circulating miRNAs profile is associated with migraine without aura. Remarkably, the same miRNAs are known to be modulated in the setting of atherosclerosis and stroke in humans. This study represents a first step towards further characterization of MO diagnosis/pathophysiology, also in relation to its link with cardiovascular risk. PMID: 26333279 [PubMed - in process]
