BackgroundNon-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) significantly increases ischemic stroke and systemic embolism (SE) risks. OAC users predominantly had cardiovascular disease and risk factors, whereas non-OAC users had higher rates of malignancy and dementia. for stroke/SE-specific, p-value<0.001). Early OAC initiation (74.9%
Addressing heart health earlier in life may affect and even deter dementia risk later in life, according to research published by The American Heart Association Oct. 10 in Stroke.
Stroke, Volume 56, Issue Suppl_1 , Page ATP298-ATP298, February 1, 2025. Background:Post stroke depression (PSD) affects over 33% of stroke survivors with the highest incidence occurring in the first year after stroke. Predictors of PSD include stroke severity, cognitive impairment, age, and physical disability.
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), P=0.003).
AF increases the risk of stroke, heart failure, dementia, and hospitalization. Journal of the American Heart Association, Ahead of Print. ABSTRACTAtrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia.
Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology, Volume 3, Issue S2 , November 1, 2023. However, most post‐stroke rehabilitation focuses on recovery after discharge, emphasizing the need for efficient interventions like VR to make the most of limited hospital rehab time for stroke survivors.
Stroke, Volume 56, Issue Suppl_1 , Page ATP229-ATP229, February 1, 2025. Frequently, carotid artery stenosis is found during stroke workup and these patients undergo revascularization during the same nonelective admission. Hospital readmission rates can help identify the optimal strategy to minimize post-procedural complications.
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 56, Issue Suppl_1 , Page A139-A139, February 1, 2025. We therefore tested this relationship in a large, heterogeneous sample of patients from across the US.Methods:We performed a retrospective cohort study using administrative claims data from hospitalizations in 11 states in the US between 2016 and 2019. years (IQR, 1.0-3.9),
Stroke, Volume 56, Issue Suppl_1 , Page ATP33-ATP33, February 1, 2025. (1) 1) Background:Cerebral microbleeds (MBs) and cortical superficial siderosis (cSS) can be seen in a multitude of etiologies. The risk factors for cerebral MB and cSS and their relationship with cognitive decline are not well known.(2)
Stroke, Volume 55, Issue Suppl_1 , Page AWMP20-AWMP20, February 1, 2024. Introduction:Early identification of white matter hyperintensity-related cognitive impairment (WMH-CI) through normal MRI images is of great significance for early clinical intervention to reduce the occurrence of dementia.
Stroke, Volume 55, Issue Suppl_1 , Page A67-A67, February 1, 2024. Background:People with acute stroke are at high risk of dementia. Population-wide data on the risk and time-course of dementia after stroke are lacking.Methods:We conducted a population-wide analysis of over 15 million people in Ontario, Canada between 2002-2022.
Stroke, Volume 56, Issue Suppl_1 , Page AWMP18-AWMP18, February 1, 2025. Background:Cerebral microbleeds (CMBs) are associated with incident dementia, but the impact of specific CMB patterns is unclear. Compared to individuals with no CMBs, presence of any CMBs was associated with an increased risk of dementia (Table 2).
Stroke, Volume 56, Issue Suppl_1 , Page ADP13-ADP13, February 1, 2025. Background:People with stroke are at high risk of dementia. Using linked administrative databases, we identified all 90-day dementia-free survivors of first acute ischemic stroke or intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH).
Stroke, Volume 55, Issue Suppl_1 , Page ATP22-ATP22, February 1, 2024. Background:The increased risk of dementia after delirium and infection might be influenced by cerebral small vessel disease-SVD. Delirium and infection were defined by ICD-10 coding supplemented by hand-searching of hospital records. vs. 3.41,1.91-6.09,
Stroke, Volume 55, Issue Suppl_1 , Page AWMP57-AWMP57, February 1, 2024. Introduction:Post-stroke delirium is common and leads to worse short- and long-term outcomes with higher 28-day modified Rankin Score (mRS), longer length of hospitalization, and increased odds of discharge to a nursing home, development of dementia, and death.
The most frequent cardiac arrhythmia, atrial fibrillation, is known to independently increase the risk of dementia, said Massimo Barbagallo, M.D., lead author of the study and a resident in the neuro intensive care unit at the University Hospital Zrich. Swiss-AF is ongoing at 14 centers across all language regions in Switzerland.
Stroke, Volume 54, Issue 12 , Page 3117-3127, December 1, 2023. BACKGROUND:Understanding factors that influence the transition to permanent residential aged care following a stroke or transient ischemic attack may inform strategies to support people to live at home longer. 1.71]), dementia (SHR, 1.66 [95% CI, 1.14–2.42]),
Stroke, Volume 55, Issue Suppl_1 , Page AWP273-AWP273, February 1, 2024. Baseline characteristics, past medical history, and SDOH among those with mild stroke versus severe stroke were compared using the Wilcoxon Rank Sum test and chi-square tests. Similarly, those with a diagnosis of dementia on admission, were 6.22
Stroke, Volume 55, Issue Suppl_1 , Page ATMP105-ATMP105, February 1, 2024. Introduction:Cancer is an emerging risk factor for ischemic stroke. The final model predicting stroke within 1 year following cancer diagnosis was derived using multivariable Fine-Gray regression with candidate predictors selected via backward elimination.
Stroke, Volume 55, Issue Suppl_1 , Page AWMP19-AWMP19, February 1, 2024. Introduction:The 21-point Brain Care Score (BCS), developed via a modified Delphi process with practitioners and patients, is a novel instrument designed to motivate behavioral and lifestyle changes, ultimately aiming to decrease incidence of dementia and stroke (Fig 1).
Stroke, Volume 56, Issue Suppl_1 , Page A73-A73, February 1, 2025. We used a mixed effects linear regression model to examine the relationship between DTD group and length of stay, controlling for age, race, sex, last known well to arrival time, initial NIHSS, atrial fibrillation, and alcohol/drug abuse and clustering by hospital site.
Insulin resistance is a core risk factor for the three leading causes of death: Cardiovascular Disease Cancer Dementia. Assessing fasting insulin can be tricky and often needs to be done in a major hospital lab setting. Subscribe now Take cardiovascular disease, for example. Assessing fasting glucose is very straightforward.
During the American Stroke Association’s International Stroke Conference 2024, ISC24, eleven scientists leading the way in stroke research will be recognized for their exceptional professional achievements. Sacco Outstanding Stroke Research Mentor Award, which honors Ralph L. 7-9 in Phoenix, AZ. 7-9 in Phoenix, AZ.
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 56, Issue Suppl_1 , Page ATP378-ATP378, February 1, 2025. Introduction:The molecular and metabolic changes that occur after acute ischemic stroke (AIS) are not fully understood. There was a significant correlation with increase age of stroke patients and higher levels of MDA (p<0.05).
Clinical predictors of cardiac syncope at initial evaluation in patients referred urgently to general hospital: the EGSYS score. Background: Syncope is a common, potentially serious condition accounting for many hospital admissions. g/dL Hypotension (obviously!) Other studies 1) EGSYS score (full text link).
