The Association of Social Isolation on the Risk of Stroke among Middle-aged and Older Adults in China.
Abstract Given there is limited research examining the specific role social isolation plays in stroke risk, we aimed to estimate the controlled direct effect of social isolation on stroke risk in China. A nationally representative sample (n=12,662) of individuals aged 45 and older (at baseline, 2011; with corresponding follow-ups in 2013 and 2015), was taken from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study. Stroke was assessed through self- or proxy-reported physician diagnosis. Social isolation was measured by incorporating marital status; frequency of contact with friends, family, and children; and partic...

Clinically Relevant Depressive Symptoms in Young Stroke Patients - Results of the sifap1 Study
Background: Although post-stroke depression is widely recognized, less is known about depressive symptoms in the acute stage of stroke and especially in young stroke patients. We thus investigated depressive symptoms and their determinants in such a cohort. Methods: The Stroke in Young Fabry Patients study (sifap1) prospectively recruited a large multinational European cohort (n = 5,023) of patients with a cerebrovascular event aged 18-55. For assessing clinically relevant depressive symptoms (CRDS, defined by a BDI-score ≥18) the self-reporting Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) was obtained on inclusion in the study. Asso...

Bowel Movement Frequency, Laxative Use, and Mortality From Coronary Heart Disease and Stroke Among Japanese Men and Women: The Japan Collaborative Cohort (JACC) Study.
CONCLUSIONS: Constipation could be a marker of exposure to CVD risk factors, and laxative use could be a risk factor for mortality from coronary heart disease and ischemic stroke. PMID: 26725286 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Effectiveness of caregiver-mediated exercise interventions on activities of daily living, anxiety and depression post-stroke rehabilitation: A systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSION: Caregiver-mediated exercise interventions appear to have beneficial impacts on basic ADL for stroke survivors, suggesting caregiver-mediated exercise interventions as a potentially feasible way to improve functional independence.IMPACT: Caregiver-mediated intervention with exercises as a major component could be a promising approach to augment stroke rehabilitation. Future research should include high-quality studies with focus on specific intervention components or to explore caregiver outcomes.PMID:35451521 | DOI:10.1111/jan.15239

Effectiveness of technology-based interventions on psychological morbidities, quality of life for informal caregivers of stroke survivors: A systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSION: Technology-based interventions had beneficial effects in alleviating depressive symptoms among informal caregivers.IMPACT: Technology-based interventions serve as a support mechanism for informal caregivers of stroke survivors who face time-constrains. Further high-quality randomized controlled trials are warranted to elucidate sustainability, optimal format and dosage of intervention.PMID:34904746 | DOI:10.1111/jan.15130

Dyadic psycho-social interventions for stroke survivors and family caregivers: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
CONCLUSIONS: This study provided moderate support for the benefits of dyadic psycho-social intervention in improving survivor and caregiver's functional independence, quality of life, depression, anxiety, self-efficacy and care burden. Nevertheless, due to limitations of the study, it was deemed necessary that this topic is studied further.RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE: This review suggests that dyadic psycho-social interventions should be considered as effective strategies for decreasing psycho-social problems of stroke survivors and caregivers, and provides evidence for the formulation of targeted intervention programs....

Serum tumor necrosis factor receptor-1 is associated with trajectories of functional status: the Northern Manhattan Study.
Abstract We hypothesized that tumor necrosis factor receptor-1 (TNFR1) levels are associated with long-term trajectories of functional status independently of vascular risk factors and stroke and myocardial infarction (MI) occurring during follow-up. In the Northern Manhattan Study, stroke-free individuals in northern Manhattan aged >40 years had annual assessments with the Barthel index (BI) for a median of 13 years. Baseline demographics, risk factors, and laboratory studies included TNFR1 (n = 1,863). Generalized estimating equation models estimated standardized associations between TNFR1 and 1) baseline f...

Association Between Serum Tumor Necrosis Factor Receptor 1 and Trajectories of Functional Status The Northern Manhattan Study
AbstractWe hypothesized that tumor necrosis factor receptor 1 (TNFR1) levels are associated with long-term trajectories of functional status independently of vascular risk factors and the occurrence of stroke and myocardial infarction (MI) during follow-up. In the Northern Manhattan Study, stroke-free persons aged ≥40 years in northern Manhattan (New York, New York) had annual assessments with the Barthel index (BI) for a median of 13 years (1993–2015). Assessment of baseline demographic factors, risk factors, and laboratory studies included measurement of TNFR1 (n = 1,863). Generalized estimating equations models we...

Diabetes predicts long-term disability in an elderly urban cohort: the Northern Manhattan Study.
CONCLUSION: In this large, population-based, multiethnic study with long-term follow-up, we found a 1% mean decline in function per year that did not change when vascular events were censored. Diabetes predicted functional decline in the absence of clinical vascular events. PMID: 24485410 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Comorbidity profile in dementia with Lewy bodies versus Alzheimer’s disease: a linkage study between the Swedish Dementia Registry and the Swedish National Patient Registry
Conclusions: Our study indicated a worse comorbidity profile in DLB patients with higher occurrence of depression, stroke and migraine compared with the AD group. Deeper knowledge about the underlying mechanisms of these associations is needed to explore possible reasons for the different pattern of comorbidity profile in DLB compared to AD and their prognostic significance.
