Although recent advances in surgical techniques have improved prognosis, infective endocarditis (IE) remains associated with high in-hospital and long-term mortality rates, ranging from 15% to 25%.1,2) The nervous system is frequently involved in IE patients, and neurological symptoms have been observed in 20% to 40% of patients with IE.3–5) A treatment dilemma arises when IE is complicated by ...
Death certificates for the period 1968-1977 were examined to determine the trend, in the United States, of cerebrovascular disease death rates by type of event and demographic subgroup. The largest declines were for hemorrhagic strokes and among nonwhites. The number of hemorrhagic stroke deaths declined by 45 percent and th age-adjusted rate declined by 53 percent. Similar figures for nonwhite...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE This study was conducted to determine if blacks hospitalized for cerebrovascular events had more severe cerebrovascular events than whites similarly hospitalized. METHODS Data from the Maryland Health Services Cost Review Commission were used to determine incidence of coma, death rates, age at death of those who died, and length of stay for acute hemorrhagic and occlusi...
We evaluated the safety and possible efficacy of large doses of the heparinoid ORG 10172 in 57 patients with acute or progressing ischemic stroke. Patients received a loading bolus of the drug followed by a maintenance intravenous infusion for 7 days. The plasma level of ORG 10172 was monitored by the degree of inhibition of coagulation factor Xa. In general, the drug was well tolerated and few...
INTRODUCTION The cervical internal carotid artery (ICA) is susceptible to injury through various mechanisms, including dissection, which can lead to pseudoaneurysm formation. Pathological processes affecting the ICA, in association with an ipsilateral fetal posterior cerebral artery (PCA), resulting in parieto-occipital strokes are rarely reported. CASE PRESENTATION We present a patient with ...
Results Forty-five patients were included (n = 45) and received the following diagnosis: ischemic stroke/TIA 55.6% (n = 25), hemorrhagic stroke 6.7% (n = 3), other 37.8% (n = 17). Ninety-one percent (n = 41) were admitted for further examination. Eighty percent (n = 20) of patients with validated stroke were aged 61-90 years. In 91% of cases with suspected stroke, the tentative diagnosis was su...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Raloxifene, a selective estrogen receptor modulator, reduces risk of invasive breast cancer and osteoporosis, but the effect on risk for stroke and venous thromboembolism in different patient subgroups is not established. The purpose of this analysis was to evaluate the effect of raloxifene on the incidence of all strokes, stroke deaths, and venous thromboembolic events a...
Diurnal Variation in Stroke Onset in Atrial Fibrillation To the Editor: We read with interest the article by Engström et al1 on cardiac arrhythmias and stroke and agree that apart from atrial fibrillation (AF), little scientific attention has been given to the associations between cardiac arrhythmias and stroke onset. Even in AF, we still need to know much more on the relation to stroke onset, ...
BACKGROUND It is sometimes difficult to choose anti-thrombotic agents for secondary prevention in stroke patients at high bleeding risk. Recently, Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA) was reported to reduce the recurrence of stroke in hypercholesterolemic patients without increasing hemorrhagic risk. In this study, we investigated the features of recurrent stroke patients during EPA medication as second...
Three thousand two hundred and ninety-eight patients admitted to our Stroke Unit with hemorrhagic, large artery atherosclerosis, cardioembolic, small-vessel occlusion, and undetermined etiology-cryptogenic strokes were included in the study. The circadian variability in onset in each stroke subgroup and the associations with various risk factors were analyzed. In each subgroup, a significant mi...
