Clinically translated ischemic stroke genomics.

Cohort studies show that having a positive family history of stroke increases the odds of having a stroke by approximately 30%. The heritability of stroke appears to be heterogeneous across ischemic stroke subtypes, with cardioembolic stroke being least heritable. The relative influence of stroke risk attenuates with age, but genetics does not cease to be relevant in later adulthood. Recent fam...

In acute ischemic stroke, are asymptomatic intracranial hemorrhages clinically innocuous?

BACKGROUND In patients with acute ischemic stroke, intracranial hemorrhages are categorized as symptomatic or asymptomatic based on the presence or absence of a clinically detectable neurological deterioration. Asymptomatic intracranial hemorrhages are believed by many to be clinically innocuous. We examined whether the occurrence of an asymptomatic intracranial hemorrhage affects functional ou...

Vitamin D and Ischemic Stroke

Introduction: stroke is the most important brain disease. Stroke leads to a reduction in bone density, altered calcium homeostasis, and an increase in hip fractures. Some recent studies show effects of vitamin D on stroke and vice versa. The purpose of this study was to determine of serum vitamin D levels in patients with acute stroke. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, we compared t...

dysphagia in acute ischemic stroke

Introduction: Swallowing dysfunction complicates acute strokes in 25-32% of cases and directly affects patientschr('39') prognosis and recovery. Dysphagia complicates the course of acute strokes through its potential of the development of chest infection, nutritional problems, and dehydration.  Dysphagia is also an independent predictor of respiratory morbidity and mortality in acute stroke. In...

Alteplase for acute ischemic stroke: outcomes by clinically important subgroups in the Third International Stroke Trial.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Our aim was to identify whether particular subgroups of patients had an unacceptably high risk of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage or low chance of benefit when treated with alteplase (recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator). METHODS Third International Stroke Trial was an international randomized trial of the intravenous (IV) recombinant plasminogen activator...
