Ischemic stroke outcome: A review of the influence of post-stroke complications within the different scenarios of stroke care.
Abstract Stroke remains one of the main causes of death and disability worldwide. The challenge of predicting stroke outcome has been traditionally assessed from a general point of view, where baseline non-modifiable factors such as age or stroke severity are considered the most relevant factors. However, after stroke occurrence, some specific complications such as hemorrhagic transformations or post stroke infections, which lead to a poor outcome, could be developed. An early prediction or identification of these circumstances, based on predictive models including clinical information, could be useful for physici...

Exaggerated exercise blood pressure response and risk of stroke in patients referred for stress testing.
CONCLUSION: We did not observe any significant association between exercise SBP and the future occurrence of stroke in patients with known or suspected CAD referred for exercise echocardiography. PMID: 24930070 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Antidiabetic drugs and stroke risk. Current evidence.
Abstract Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the major cause of morbidity and mortality for individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2D). In particular, the risk for stroke is twice that of patients without diabetes, and diabetes may be responsible for >8% of first ischemic strokes. Therefore, the way to prevent stroke in these patients has become an important issue. Traditionally, glucose-lowering drugs had not been shown to protect against stroke. Moreover, several antidiabetic drugs (i.e., sulfonylureas, rosiglitazone) have been reported to be associated with increased risks of CVD and stroke. On the contrary, data on...

Cardiovascular outcomes and mortality after incident ischaemic stroke in patients with a recent cancer history
CONCLUSIONS: After incident ischaemic stroke, patients with recent cancer history have a lower risk of composite MACE and recurrent stroke outcomes but a higher risk of all-cause mortality when compared with patients without a prior history of cancer.PMID:36549951 | DOI:10.1016/j.ejim.2022.12.006

Inflammatory bowel diseases increase future ischemic stroke risk: A Taiwanese population-based retrospective cohort study.
CONCLUSIONS: IBD exhibited an increased risk of developing ischemic stroke. PMID: 24906568 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Different impact of aspirin on renal progression in patients with predialysis advanced chronic kidney disease with or without previous stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: There was no significant benefit in preventing ischemic stroke in the patients with advanced CKD who received aspirin therapy. Furthermore, the use of aspirin was associated with the risk of renal failure in the patients with advanced CKD without previous stroke. PMID: 27884500 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Comparing associations of different metabolic syndrome definitions with ischemic stroke in Chinese elderly population.
CONCLUSION: In this population, Updated ATPIII criteria was a more suitable definition of Mets than definitions of Chinese guide, IDF and JIS for screening high-risk individuals of ischemic stroke, and the additive effects of Mets components might play a greater role than its composition alone in ischemic stroke.

Association between ischemic stroke and carbon monoxide poisoning: A population-based retrospective cohort analysis.
CONCLUSION: CO poisoning is associated with a long-term risk of increased incident ischemic stroke. Further study on the mechanism of ischemic stroke for CO poisoning affects is needed. PMID: 26703428 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Oral anticoagulants vs antiplatelets in cryptogenic stroke with potential cardiac emboli: Meta-analysis
CONCLUSIONS: OACs compared with antiplatelet therapies were associated with a reduced recurrent ischemic stroke risk and OACs might be a viable non-procedural alternative in patients with cryptogenic stroke and potential cardiac emboli.PMID:34419310 | DOI:10.1016/j.ejim.2021.08.002

P2Y12 inhibitors plus aspirin for acute treatment and secondary prevention in minor stroke and high-risk transient ischemic attack: A systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSIONS: Early administration of P2Y12 inhibitors plus aspirin in patients with acute non-cardioembolic minor ischemic stroke or TIA reduced the incidence of ischemic stroke recurrence, impacting more significantly than the increased bleeding risk and influencing patients' quality of life by reducing disabling stroke.PMID:35331593 | DOI:10.1016/j.ejim.2022.03.017
