Disparities for Risk of Recurrent Hemorrhagic Stroke Unexplained
Black and Hispanic patients are at higher risk for stroke recurrence than white patients.
Hemorrhagic Stroke
Cerebral Microbleeds Do Not Predict 3-Month Death or Disability in Intracerebral Hemorrhage
Investigators performed a pre-planned secondary analysis of the open-label, randomized Antihypertensive Treatment of Acute Cerebral Hemorrhage 2 study, specifically on the magnetic resonance images obtained during the intensive blood pressure lowering portion of the trial.
Intracerebral Hemorrhage-Related Hospital Mortality Reduced With Prior NOAC Use
Outcomes in intracerebral hemorrhage are less severe in patients with prior NOAC use.
Risk Factors Have Varying Effects on Stroke Pathology
The results confirm that ischemic, hemorrhagic, and subarachnoid stroke have very different etiologies.
Spontaneous Subarachnoid Hemorrhage Incidence Up in Pregnant Women
Researchers have observed an upward trend in the incidence of pregnancy-related spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage.
ENCHANTED Update: No Role for Low-Dose Alteplase After All?
Results from a secondary analysis of the ENCHANTED trial add to a pile of weak data that likely will not affect clinical practice.
Noncontrast CT Markers Predict Hematoma Growth Risk in Hemorrhagic Stroke
Surprisingly, no evidence was found to suggest that patients with these markers benefit from intensive blood pressure reduction.
Intensive BP Lowering Does Not Benefit ICH With Spot Sign
Although spot sign predicted ICH expansion, it proved to be a less robust diagnostic marker than demonstrated by previous single-center cohort studies.
Cirrhosis Associated With Increased Stroke Risk
Patients with cirrhosis had a 2.17% per year incidence of stroke compared with 1.11% per year incidence of stroke in patients without cirrhosis.
Intracranial Hemorrhage Associated with Arteriovenous Malformations Linked to Better Outcomes
Compared with other sources of ICH, those associated with arteriovenous malformations had lower odds of death.
