Correlation Between Blood Glucose Level and Cerebral Small Vessel Disease Markers in Neurologically Asymptomatic, Nondiabetic Individuals

open access: yesAGING MEDICINE, EarlyView.
The prevalence of neurologically asymptomatic CSVD is common in the nondiabetic population. Glycated hemoglobin A1c correlated with periventricular white matter hyperintensities. Fasting blood glucose was associated with deep cerebral microbleeds. Better control of blood glucose may have a beneficial effect on reducing the risk of CSVD.

Early prediction of severity in acute ischemic stroke and transient ischemic attack using platelet parameters and neutrophil‐to‐lymphocyte ratio

open access: yesJournal of clinical laboratory analysis (Print), 2018
It is still not easy to predict severity promptly in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) and transient ischemic attack (TIA). We investigated that platelet parameters or combinations of them could be a useful tool for early prediction of severity ...

Risk Factors and Predictive Model for Ischemic Complications in Endovascular Treatment of Intracranial Aneurysms: Insights From a Large Patient Cohort

open access: yesAGING MEDICINE, EarlyView.
Independent risk factors for ischemic complications in endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms were identified using machine learning methods, and the first prediction model for ischemic complications of all intracranial aneurysms was constructed. Moreover, the model showed a stable and excellent predictive efficacy.

Risk Factors Associated with Recurrent Strokes in Young and Elderly Patients: A Hospital-based Study

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gerontology, 2015
Background: Recurrent stroke is often devastating, and can cause severe disability or death. Risk factors associated with recurrent strokes unrelated to atrial fibrillation have been well identified; however, it remains to be further elucidated whether ...

How do neurologists diagnose transient ischemic attack: A systematic review

open access: yesInternational Journal of Stroke, 2018
Background Identifying and treating patients with transient ischemic attack is an effective means of preventing stroke. However, making this diagnosis can be challenging, and over a third of patients referred to stroke prevention clinic are ultimately ...

Ataque transitorio de isquemia, el heraldo del ictus Transient ischemic attack: the herald of stroke

open access: yesRevista Cubana de Investigaciones Biomédicas, 2012
Introducción: el ataque transitorio de isquemia constituye una parte fundamental de la enfermedad cerebrovascular, en muchas ocasiones no bien diagnosticado por su corta duración, lo difícil de ver y sus variadas manifestaciones clínicas.

Young Stroke Survivors With No Early Recurrence at High Long‐Term Risk of Adverse Outcomes

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2019
Background Approximately 8% to 21% of strokes affect adults aged 5× that of young controls (hazard ratio, 5.2; 95% CI, 2.8–9.4), compared with a 30% increase at 5 years for older patients (hazard ratio, 1.3; 95% CI, 1.3–1.4).

Effects of pyruvate administration on infarct volume and neurological deficits following permanent focal cerebral ischemia in rats [PDF]

open access: yesBrain Research 990(1-2): 1-7 (2003), 2007
Recent experimental evidences indicate that pyruvate, the final metabolite of glycolysis, has a remarkable protective effect against different types of brain injury. The purpose of this study was to assess the neuroprotective effect and the neurological outcome after pyruvate administration in a model of ischemic stroke induced by permanent middle ...
