Epidemiology and Etiology of Young Stroke [PDF]
Introduction. Stroke in people under 45 years of age is less frequent than in older populations but has a major impact on the individual and society. In this article we provide an overview of the epidemiology and etiology of young stroke.Methods. This paper is based on a review of population-based studies on stroke incidence that have included subgroup

Etiology of Stroke and Choice of Models [PDF]
Animal models of stroke contribute to the development of better stroke prevention and treatment through studies investigating the pathophysiology of different stroke subtypes and by testing promising treatments before trials in humans. There are two broad types of animal models: those in which stroke is induced through artificial means, modeling the ...

Stroke etiology is associated with outcome in posterior circulation stroke [PDF]
AbstractObjectiveStroke research and clinical trials have focused mainly on anterior circulation stroke (ACS). Since clinical characteristics, mechanisms, and outcomes of posterior circulation stroke (PCS) have been reported different from ACS, more PCS studies are required, particularly researching the etiologies, to help establish an optimal ...

Etiology and pathophysiology of stroke as a complex trait [PDF]
Stroke (brain attack) is currently the third leading cause of death in Western societies. Recent advances in molecular genetics have finally demonstrated what has long been suggested by the clinical observation, that is, stroke is not only the complication of major pathologic conditions such as atherosclerosis, hypertension, or cardiac diseases, but ...

Stroke Etiology Modifies the Effect of Endovascular Treatment in Acute Stroke [PDF]
Background and Purpose— Stroke etiology drives thrombus composition. We thus hypothesized that endovascular treatment shows different efficacy in cardioembolic versus noncardioembolic large-vessel occlusions (LVOs). Methods— Procedural characteristics, grade of reperfusion, and ...

Diversiform Etiologies for Post-stroke Depression [PDF]
After the onset of stroke, many patients suffer from emotional behavior changes. Approximately, one-third of stroke survivors are affected by post-stroke depression (PSD), making it a serious social and public health problem. Post-stroke depression (PSD) has an important impact on the course, recovery, and prognosis of stroke.

Etiology of Cryptogenic Stroke
Ischemic stroke is a heterogeneous syndrome with a plurality of potential etiological factors. The routine diagnosis does not always allow the cause of acute cerebrovascular accident to be found, in such cases we talk about cryptogenic ischemic stroke, which incidence is 20-40%.

Assessment of the Predictive Validity of Etiologic Stroke Classification [PDF]
The ability of present-day etiologic stroke classification systems to generate subtypes with discrete stroke characteristics is not known.To test the hypothesis that etiologic stroke subtyping identifies different disease processes that can be recognized through their different clinical courses.We performed a head-to-head evaluation of the ability of ...

MicroRNA in ischemic stroke etiology and pathology
Small, noncoding, microRNAs (miRNAs) have emerged as key mediators of posttranscriptional gene silencing in both pathogenic and pathological aspects of ischemic stroke biology. In stroke etiology, miRNA have distinct expression patterns that modulate pathogenic processes including atherosclerosis (miR-21, miR-126), hyperlipidemia (miR-33, miR-125a-5p),

Epidemiology and etiology of strokes in babies
The paper summarizes an update on the morbidity, mortality, and a risk for recurrence of stroke occurring in babies. It shows a variety of conditions and syndromes which may be responsible for stroke in infancy. Babies with the signs of intrauterine infection and congenital heart disease, the carriers of major thrombophilia gene mutations, may be ...
