Predictive Value of Cystatin C for Stroke Recurrence in Patients With Acute Ischemic Stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: In ischemic stroke patients with high hsCRP concentrations, higher CysC concentrations increased the risk of stroke recurrence and vascular events. This indicates that the predictive value of CysC on stroke recurrence may depend on the inflammation status of patients. PMID: 33208593 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Incident Stroke and Its Influencing Factors in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and/or Hypertension: A Prospective Cohort Study
CONCLUSIONS: Patients with T2DM and/or HTN have a higher rate of new stroke and recurrence after 1-year follow-up. Actively identifying the controllable risk factors, such as smoking and physical inactivity, will help reduce the risk of stroke and recurrence in patients with T2DM and HTN.PMID:35224030 | PMC:PMC8863944 | DOI:10.3389/fcvm.2022.770025

Genetically predicted higher educational attainment decreases the risk of stroke: a multivariable Mendelian randomization study
CONCLUSIONS: We found that genetically predicated higher EA decreased the risks of total stroke, ischemic stroke, and cardioembolic stroke, independent of smoking, alcohol consumption, BMI, intelligence, and hypertension.PMID:35710362 | DOI:10.1186/s12872-022-02713-7

Trigger Factors for Stroke in Young Adults: A Case-Crossover Study
DISCUSSION: We identified cola consumption, vigorous physical exercise, sexual activity, illicit drug use, fever- and flu-like disease as potential trigger factors for stroke in the young, and found differences in type and number of trigger factors associated with different etiologic subgroups of ischemic stroke. These findings might help in better understanding the pathophysiological mechanisms of (cryptogenic) stroke in the young.PMID:36127143 | DOI:10.1212/WNL.0000000000201341

Differential associations between pre-diabetes, diabetes and stroke occurrence among West Africans
CONCLUSION: Pre-DM is strongly and independently associated with stroke in Africans. Improving glycemic control through screening, healthy lifestyle and pharmacotherapy at a population level may be strategic in reducing the rising burden of stroke in Africa.PMID:36194925 | DOI:10.1016/j.jstrokecerebrovasdis.2022.106805

One-year recurrence of stroke and death in Lebanese survivors of first-ever stroke: Time-to-Event analysis
CONCLUSION: Higher rates of stroke recurrence and death were observed in the first year following a stroke in Lebanon. Various factors were identified as significant determinants. Thus, health care providers and officials in Lebanon can use these findings to implement effective preventive strategies to best address the management of these factors to reduce the stroke burden and improve the short and long-term prognosis of stroke survivors.PMID:36452174 | PMC:PMC9702576 | DOI:10.3389/fneur.2022.973200

Diabetes and Stroke: What Are the Connections?
J Stroke. 2023 Jan 3. doi: 10.5853/jos.2022.02306. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTStroke is a major cause of death and long-term disability worldwide. Diabetes is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular complications, including stroke. People with diabetes have a 1.5-2 times higher risk of stroke compared with people without diabetes, with risk increasing with diabetes duration. These risks may also differ according to sex, with a greater risk observed among women versus men. Several mechanisms associated with diabetes lead to stroke, including large artery atherosclerosis, cerebral small vessel disease, and car...

Abstract 206: Expansion Of Emergency Medical Services Routing For Stroke In The United States Poster Session II
Conclusions: In 2010 a majority of stroke patients in the United States were hospitalized in an area with established or transitioning to EMS diversion. This milestone coverage of half the US population is a major advance in systematic stroke care, and emphasizes the need for novel approaches, such as telemedicine, to further extend access to stroke center care to all patients.

Abstract 221: National and Regional Trends in Hospitalizations for Ischemic Stroke after Acute Myocardial Infarction in the United States: 1999-2010 Poster Session II
Conclusions: From 1999 to 2010, the hospitalization rates of ischemic stroke after AMI decreased overall and for demographic subgroups and those undergoing PCI, CABG, or no revascularization. Declines were seen for all regions, but were consistently higher for stroke belt states. Post-AMI strokes 30-day mortality rates decreased over time.

Subtypes of Hypertension and Risk of Stroke in Rural Chinese Adults.
CONCLUSIONS: SDH patients warrant the most attention for prevent of stroke. However, ISH and IDH are also independent predictors of stroke. The risk factors for stroke, especially hypertension, were not controlled in the rural population we studied. More aggressive efforts to control the risk factors for stroke in rural areas are needed.

New Ischemic Stroke and Outcomes With Vorapaxar Versus Placebo Results From the TRA 2°P-TIMI 50 Trial
BackgroundVorapaxar, a novel antiplatelet therapy, reduces thrombotic events in patients with a history of myocardial infarction (MI) or peripheral artery disease (PAD); however, because of an increased risk of intracranial hemorrhage, it is contraindicated in patients with a history of stroke.ObjectivesThe aim of this study was to investigate the incidence of new ischemic stroke and subsequent death or intracerebral hemorrhage in patients with MI or PAD and no cerebrovascular disease (CVD) treated with vorapaxar.MethodsThe TRA 2°P-TIMI 50 (Trial to Assess the Effects of Vorapaxar in Preventing Heart Attack and Stroke in ...

Validity of International Classification of Disease Codes to Identify Ischemic Stroke and Intracranial Hemorrhage Among Individuals With Associated Diagnosis of Atrial Fibrillation Original Articles
Conclusions— Using ICD-9 stroke and AF codes to identify patients with stroke plus AF resulted in inaccuracies. Given the expanded financial and policy implications of patient-oriented research, conclusions derived solely from administrative data without validation of outcome events should be interpreted with caution.
