Associations Between Adherence to Evidence-Based, Stroke Quality Indicators and Outcomes of Acute Reperfusion Therapy
CONCLUSIONS: We demonstrated national marked and sustainable improvement in adherence to door-to-needle time, door-to-puncture time, and successful reperfusion from 2013 to 2017 in Japan in patients with acute ischemic stroke. Adhering to the key QIs substantially affected in-hospital outcomes, underlining the importance of monitoring the quality of care using evidence-based QIs and the nationwide Close The Gap-Stroke program.PMID:35971841 | DOI:10.1161/STROKEAHA.121.038483

Atrial fibrillation in cancer patients who develop stroke
CONCLUSION: AF, previous ischemic stroke, active cancer treatment, dyslipidemia, and renal disease are independent risk factors for Stroke/TIA and a higher CHA2DS2-VASc score significantly increases the risk in cancer patients regardless of AF.PMID:35585638 | DOI:10.1186/s40959-022-00137-y

The structured ambulatory post-stroke care program for outpatient aftercare in patients with ischaemic stroke in Germany (SANO): an open-label, cluster-randomised controlled trial
This study was registered with the German Clinical Trials Register, DRKS00015322.FINDINGS: Between Jan 1, 2019 and Dec 22, 2020, 36 clusters were assessed for eligibility, of which 30 were randomly assigned to the intervention group (n=15 clusters) or control group (n=15 clusters). No clusters dropped out of the study. 1203 (86%) of 1396 enrolled patients in the intervention group and 1283 (92%) of 1395 enrolled patients in the control group were included in the mITT population. The primary endpoint was confirmed in 64 (5·3%) of 1203 patients in the intervention group and 80 (6·2%) of 1283 patients in the control group (...

Admission Rates, Time Trends, Risk Factors, and Outcomes of Ischemic and Hemorrhagic Stroke From German Nationwide Data
DISCUSSION: Despite recent advances in acute stroke care over the last decade, the percentage of stroke hospitalizations resulting in death remained unchanged. Further research is needed to determine how best to optimize stroke care pathways for multimorbid patients.PMID:36332988 | DOI:10.1212/WNL.0000000000201259

Investigation of Factors That Affect the Quality of Life After a Stroke
Adv Exp Med Biol. 2023;1425:437-442. doi: 10.1007/978-3-031-31986-0_42.ABSTRACTStroke, as a disease, describes a group of disorders characterized by the presence of central nervous system symptoms either as a result of ischemia (ischemic stroke) or bleeding (hemorrhagic stroke). The appearance of a stroke results in a permanent physical or cognitive disability. The stroke incidence is the third cause of death after heart disease and cancer, and is the main cause of long-term disability.The effects of a stroke on a patient's daily life, and hence on his quality of life, are intense and long-lasting. These include memory pro...

Related factors based on non-targeted metabolomics methods in minor ischaemic stroke
CONCLUSION: Increased levels of lactic acid, pyruvate, and TMAO may be related to the pathophysiological changes in the minor ischaemic stroke population. High blood pressure, a lack of physical activity, smoking, and increased TMAO level were the influencing factors for the occurrence of minor ischaemic stroke. The serum metabolite TMAO may be associated with MS occurrence.PMID:36237188 | PMC:PMC9552842 | DOI:10.3389/fendo.2022.952918

Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPURPOSE OF REVIEW: The aim of this study is to investigate the protective effects of different statin classes, intensity, and cumulative dose-dependent against primary ischemic stroke in patients with T2DM.RECENT FINDINGS: The Cox hazards model was used to evaluate statin use on primary ischemic stroke. Case group: T2DM patients who received statins; control group: T2DM patients who received no statins during the follow-up.

Characteristics and Management of a Cancer Patient with Stroke: A Case Report
DISCUSSION: Intensive rehabilitation can be an effective treatment for patients with stroke associated with cancer, but in convalescent rehabilitation wards, it is not possible to combine rehabilitation and cancer treatment. Therefore, for patients whose physical function takes a long time to recover or whose cancer is not under control, it is necessary to make a careful decision on whether intensive rehabilitation is the optimum approach. To facilitate informed decision making, it is important to share information across departments.PMID:34888429 | PMC:PMC8613505 | DOI:10.2490/prm.20210047

Structured follow-up pathway to support people after transient ischaemic attack and minor stroke (SUPPORT TIA): protocol for a feasibility study and process evaluation
BMJ Open. 2022 Jun 16;12(6):e060280. doi: 10.1136/bmjopen-2021-060280.ABSTRACTINTRODUCTION: People who experience transient ischaemic attack (TIA) and minor stroke have limited follow-up despite rapid specialist review in hospital. This means they often have unmet needs and feel abandoned following discharge. Care needs after TIA/minor stroke include information provision (diagnosis and stroke risk), stroke prevention (medication and lifestyle change) and holistic care (residual problems and return to work or usual activities). This protocol describes a feasibility study and process evaluation of an intervention to support...

Pioglitazone Use and Reduced Risk of Dementia in Patients With Diabetes Mellitus With a History of Ischemic Stroke
DISCUSSION: Pioglitazone use is associated with a lower risk of dementia in DM patients, particularly in those with a history of stroke or ischemic heart disease, suggesting the possibility of applying a personalized approach when choosing pioglitazone to suppress dementia in DM patients.PMID:36792375 | DOI:10.1212/WNL.0000000000207069
