Validation of the R2CHADS2 and CHADS2 Scores for Predicting Post-stroke Cognitive Impairment
Objective Post-stroke cognitive impairment often afflicts stroke survivors and is a major obstacle both for cognitive and physical rehabilitation. Stroke risk scores ["Congestive heart failure, Hypertension, Age ≥75 years, Diabetes mellitus, Stroke" (CHADS2) and "CHADS2 + creatinine clearance <60 mL/min" (R2CHADS2)] are used to assess the future risk of cardioembolic stroke in patients with atr...
متن کاملAssociation of Diagnostic Stroke Biomarkers with Post Stroke Cognitive Impairment
Stroke patients are at a higher risk of developing progressive cognitive impairment, often retarding patient rehabilitation. Studies have been carried out to find out the molecular mechanism associated with the stroke and its consequences on the various brain regions implicated in cognitive function. The current available therapy does not improve longterm outcome and remains a substantially unm...

Balance and Mobility as Predictors of Post-Stroke Cognitive Impairment
BACKGROUND The number of patients with cognitive impairment following stroke is increasing due to the rise in the number of stroke survivors. Health authorities highlight the need for prediction and early diagnostics. The aims of this study were to investigate if balance and mobility may predict cognitive impairment 1 year after stroke. METHODS The participants were patients with first-ever s...
متن کاملFramingham stroke risk score and cognitive impairment for predicting first-time stroke in the oldest old.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Predictive value of the conventional risk factors for stroke attenuates with age. Cognitive impairment has been implicated as a potential predictor for stroke in older subjects. Our aim was to compare the Framingham stroke risk score with cognitive functioning for predicting first-time stroke in a cohort of the oldest old individuals. METHODS We included 480 subjects, a...
