Thrombotic microangiopathy in primary antiphospholipid syndrome is linked to stroke and less deep venous thrombosis
CONCLUSIONS: Patients with pAPS and TMA have distinct clinical and laboratory spectra from those without TMA, that is characterized by an increased frequency of arterial events, stroke, and higher titers of IgG anticardiolipin; they have deep venous thrombosis less frequently.PMID:34919237 | DOI:10.26355/eurrev_202112_27431

Management of Dyslipidaemia for the Prevention of Stroke: Clinical Practice Recommendations from the Lipid Association of India
Curr Vasc Pharmacol. 2021 Nov 9. doi: 10.2174/1570161119666211109122231. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTStroke is the second most common cause of death worldwide. The rates of stroke are increasing in less affluent countries predominantly because of a high prevalence of modifiable risk factors. The Lipid Association of India (LAI) has provided a risk stratification algorithm for patients with ischaemic stroke and recommended low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) goals for those in a very high risk group and extreme risk group (category A) of <50 mg/dl (1.3 mmol/l) while the LDL-C goal for extreme risk group (catego...

Long-Term Use of Statins Lowering the Risk of Rehospitalization Caused by Ischemic Stroke Among Middle-Aged Hyperlipidemic Patients: A Population-Based Study
Conclusion: Statins were associated with long-term secondary prevention of reHospIS for hyperlipidemic patients. Rosuvastatin seemed to have the best protective effects. On the other hand, Bezafibrate appears to be beneficial for hyperlipidemic patients developing diabetes. Further research into the combination treatment of statin and nonstatin lipid-lowering medicines in hyperlipidemic patients developing diabetes is warranted.

Emerging agents for the treatment and prevention of stroke: progress in clinical trials
Expert Opin Investig Drugs. 2021 Sep 24. doi: 10.1080/13543784.2021.1985463. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTINTRODUCTION: Recent years have witnessed unprecedented progress in stroke care, but unmet needs persist regarding the efficacy of acute treatment and secondary prevention. Novel approaches are being tested to enhance the efficacy of thrombolysis or provide neuroprotection in non-thrombolized patients.AREAS COVERED: The current review highlights pharmaceutical agents under evaluation in clinical trials concerning the acute, subacute, and chronic phase post-stroke. We examine the evidence in favor of tenecteplase as an...
