Changes in Life Expectancy After Stroke Among Americans Aged 50 and Above by Sex, 1996–2018
Life expectancy at Age 50 improved more for individuals with prior stroke history (near 3 years) than for the general population (near 1 year) between 1996–2006 and 2008–2018. Gains were larger among males than females. A substantial survival gap between stroke survivors and the general population persists.

Higher ROS was associated with lower subjective sleep efficiency and more nocturnal awakenings, but not with other sleep measures.

Carotid artery dissection linked to intermittent apnoeic swimming: A case–control study
Abstract Internal carotid artery (ICA) dissection is a rare and potentially devastating cause of cerebral ischaemia, initiated by an intimal tear or rupture of the vasa vasorum, that can lead to an intraluminal thrombus, vascular stenosis, occlusion, or dissecting aneurysm formation.

This graphical abstract illustrates how acute ischemic stroke may be accompanied by neuroendocrine‐immune dysregulation, represented by a low FT3/FT4 ratio and a high neutrophil‐to‐lymphocyte ratio, which together improve early identification of patients at risk for post‐ischemic stroke urinary tract infection.
