Elevated plasma homocysteine level is associated with ischemic stroke in Chinese hypertensive patients.
CONCLUSIONS: Plasma homocysteine level is positively associated with the presence of IS, but not CHD, in Chinese hypertensive patients. PMID: 24824758 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Off-hour presentation and outcomes in patients with acute ischemic stroke: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
DISCUSSION: The evidence suggests that patients with acute ischemic stroke presenting during off-hours have higher short-term mortality and greater disability at discharge. PMID: 24721584 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug use and functional outcome from ischemic cerebral events among women.
CONCLUSION: Results from this large cohort study suggest than NSAID use may be associated with an increased risk of ischemic stroke with mild functional outcome. PMID: 24525385 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Cerebral arterial infarction in inflammatory bowel diseases.
Abstract It has been estimated that up to 10% of hypercoagulable state manifestations in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are ischemic strokes. The literature search through MEDLINE and EMBASE highlighted 33 case reports of IBD patients complicated with cerebral arterial infarction during the course of their disease. Most of these patients presented with either left or right sided hemiparesis on admission, while the most common site of arterial infarction was either the right or the left middle cerebral artery. Thrombocytosis and anemia were the most commonly observed potential risk factors for strok...

Impact of gender-age interaction on the outcome of ischemic stroke in an Italian cohort of patients treated according to a standardized clinical pathway.
CONCLUSIONS: Our study confirms the excess risk of disability after stroke in women, although it is mostly explained by the occurrence of the most severe clinical syndromes. As for mortality, female gender seems to play a protective role, at least in the short-term and in younger patients. PMID: 23998857 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Transcatheter aortic valve implantation in nonagenarians: Effective and safe.
CONCLUSIONS: TAVI is safe and effective even in a selected population of nonagenarians. Consequently, these patients should not be refused such a procedure based only on their age. Multi-disciplinary assessment is essential in order to properly select candidates. PMID: 23932885 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Decision making for oral anticoagulants in atrial fibrillation: The ATA-AF study.
CONCLUSIONS: Oral anticoagulants are more frequently used in CARD than in MED, plausibly due to greater complexity of MED patients. Stratification of thrombotic and hemorrhagic risk significantly drives the choice for VKA. However the fraction of patients in whom prescription or non-prescription is based on other individual characteristics is not negligible. PMID: 23684591 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Air particulate matter and cardiovascular disease: A narrative review.
Abstract Consistent evidences from both epidemiological and experimental studies have demonstrated that short- and long-term exposure to particulate matter (PM), in particular to the finest particles (i.e. airborne PM with aerodynamic diameter less than 2.5μm, PM2.5), is associated with cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. PM concentration has been linked with several clinical manifestations of cardiovascular diseases (CVD), including myocardial infarction, stroke, heart failure, arrhythmias, and venous thromboembolism. Noteworthy, some groups of subjects, like elderly, diabetics, or those with known coronary ...

Hospitalized patients with atrial fibrillation compared to those included in recent trials on novel oral anticoagulants: A population-based study.
CONCLUSION: In patients recently discharged from the hospital with the diagnosis of nonvalvular AF, warfarin use decreases and aspirin treatment increases with patients' age. These patients are older, more frequently female, and on multiple medications. The benefit of NOACs in these subjects needs to be confirmed in phase IV clinical studies.
