I believe that patients should be equipped with all the information that is out there to allow them to work out the best way they would like their condition to be managed and their doctor’s role is that of the educator and enabler rather than the doctor acting as if they know everything and the patient knows nothing.
Cerebral small vessel disease is common in older adults and increases the risk of stroke, cognitive impairment, and dementia. Although early-life factors, particularly education, are major risk factors for Alzheimer disease, they are less established in small vessel disease or vascular cognitive impairment.
Stroke, Volume 55, Issue Suppl_1 , Page ATP13-ATP13, February 1, 2024. Participants ≥18 years with incident stroke and free of dementia were included (52% female and 39% Black). Stroke might narrow the gap in executive function between stroke survivors with higher and lower education.
Additionally, this risk was higher among Black American adults than white American adults, according to a study funded by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), part of the National Institutes of Health. Over a period of 9.5 years 24% of Black adults developed the condition compared with 15.9% of white adults.
Stroke, Volume 55, Issue Suppl_1 , Page AWMP16-AWMP16, February 1, 2024. Background:Individual magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) markers of cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) are associated with impaired cognition and dementia but may not reflect the overall burden of CSVD. Over a median follow-up time of 6.4 years (Q1-Q3: 4.6-11.3),
Stroke, Volume 56, Issue Suppl_1 , Page ATP48-ATP48, February 1, 2025. Introduction:Vascular cognitive impairment and vascular dementia are diagnosed based on brain vascular changes related to strokes. Strokes were self-reported and we used mini-mental score test (MMSE) to asses for cognitive impairment at each visit.
Stroke, Volume 56, Issue 1 , Page 74-83, January 1, 2025. BACKGROUND:Although the presence of amyloid deposits is associated with a more severe cognitive status in patients with stroke at baseline, its influence on the subsequent cognitive outcome has not been extensively assessed. 95% CI, 2.536.9];P=0.001), 95% CI, 2.536.9];P=0.001),
BackgroundInfection and inflammation are dementia risk factors in population‐based cohorts; however, studies in stroke are scarce. Associations with acute and 6‐month global and domain‐specific cognitive impairment were analyzed using multivariable regression, adjusting for demographic/vascular factors and stroke severity.
Stroke, Volume 55, Issue Suppl_1 , Page A10-A10, February 1, 2024. While the epsilon (ε) 4 variants within theAPOEgene have been extensively investigated as a risk factor for dementia and stroke,APOEε4 carriers have not been thoroughly studied as an at-risk population. Our outcome was a composite of stroke, TIA or MI.
Stroke, Volume 56, Issue 1 , Page 65-73, January 1, 2025. BACKGROUND:Socioeconomic disparities exist in acute stroke care as well as in long-term stroke outcomes. We aimed to investigate whether socioeconomic status was associated with the rate of poststroke dementia (PSD).METHODS:This 1000 person-years).
Stroke, Volume 56, Issue Suppl_1 , Page AWP310-AWP310, February 1, 2025. Background:Vascular risk factors, particularly in midlife, are associated with an increased risk of dementia, and smoking has been inversely associated with Parkinson's disease (PD) risk, but the role of these factors in PD-dementia (PDD) is less clear.
Stroke, Volume 55, Issue Suppl_1 , Page AWP273-AWP273, February 1, 2024. SDOH exposures included income bracket, educational attainment, marital status, race, and religion. Similarly, those with a diagnosis of dementia on admission, were 6.22 Similarly, those with a diagnosis of dementia on admission, were 6.22
Stroke, Volume 56, Issue Suppl_1 , Page AWP49-AWP49, February 1, 2025. This study investigates plasma pTau217 as a biomarker for distinguishing cognitive impairment and dementia in a cohort de-enriched for AD but enriched for vascular disease, focusing on its relationship with cognitive status and Fazekas scores.
Stroke, Volume 56, Issue Suppl_1 , Page AWMP50-AWMP50, February 1, 2025. Yet, little is known about the prevalence of health-related social risks (social risks) among stroke survivors. Stroke survivors were more likely to report social risks compared to older adults without a history of stroke (54.3%
Female sex and lower education were factors associated with both optimal adherence and adherence consistency in both studies. to 1.51), p=0.001), including stroke (HR 1.68 (1.22 to 2.32), p=0.001) and dementia (1.67 (1.27 to 1.51), p=0.001), including stroke (HR 1.68 (1.22 to 2.32), p=0.001) and dementia (1.67 (1.27
Stroke, Volume 56, Issue Suppl_1 , Page ATP29-ATP29, February 1, 2025. Different forms of cardiac disease have also been associated with cognitive impairment and dementia. Background:Previous reports have established a relationship between asymptomatic high-grade carotid artery stenosis (CAS) and impaired cognition.
Stroke, Volume 56, Issue Suppl_1 , Page AWP45-AWP45, February 1, 2025. They are key indicators of cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) and are associated with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and dementia. male, 49% college educated, 17.5% CSO high burden, 9.8%
I have used this to educate our residents, and I think they find it useful. Negative predictors included dementia, pacemaker, coronary revascularization, and cerebrovascular disease. to 1.45) for fatal or nonfatal stroke. Summary of ED Approach to Syncope Please excuse the formatting problems, which I have not been able to fix!
Stroke, Ahead of Print. BACKGROUND:Modifiable risk factors play a central role in the development and course of neurodegenerative disorders of later life, including dementias.
