Late-Onset Epilepsy Associated With Increased Risk for Subsequent Stroke
This systematic review identified studies related to late-onset epilepsy (LOE) to investigate the association between LOE and subsequent stroke and Alzheimer dementia.
Stroke
Patients Treated for Stroke During COVID-19 Pandemic Have Delayed Thrombolysis
Study researchers investigated whether the COVID-19 pandemic potentially contributed to the delay in acute stroke care.
Mobile Interventional Stroke Team Results in Better Early Outcomes in ELVO Stroke
A Mobile Interventional Stroke Team (MIST) resulted in improved clinical outcomes for emergent large vessel occlusion (ELVO) stroke.
Thrombectomy Safe for Pediatric Ischemic Stroke 24 hours After Symptom Onset
Study researchers compared patients treated after 6 hours with those treated within 6 hours after symptom onset, and with clinical endpoints of the DAWN and DEFUSE 3 trials.
One-Third of US Adults Lack Recommended Stroke Knowledge
Only about two-thirds of adults in the United States could identify the combination of recommended stroke knowledge, suggesting more education and outreach is needed.
Stroke and COVID-19: A Multicenter Cross-Sectional Study
COVID-19 as a cause of increased risk of stroke was assessed by research authors, who compiled discharge data from electronic medical records from 6 stroke facilities in New York.
Circulating Metabolites Linked to Risk for Incident Stroke
Circulating metabolites, including amino acids, glycolysis-related metabolites, acute phase reaction markers, and lipoprotein subfractions, are associated with the risk for stroke.
Edoxaban for Stroke Prevention in Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation
Edoxaban was found to be superior to placebo for the prevention of stroke and systemic embolism in very elderly Japanese patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation.
Severe White Matter Lesions Predict Poor Functional Outcomes After Acute Ischemic Stroke
Increasing severity of white matter lesions are predictive of poor functional outcomes following acute ischemic stroke, but do not alter the effect of EVT.
Remote Ischemic Post-Conditioning With IVT May Improve Acute Ischemic Stroke Recovery
Repeated remote ischemic post-conditioning combined with intravenous thrombolysis can promote nerve function recovery and improve prognosis after acute ischemic stroke.
