The American Heart Association, in conjunction with the National Institutes of Health, annually reports on most up-to-date statistics related to heart disease, stroke, and cardiovascular risk factors, including core health behaviors (smoking, physical activity, diet, weight) factors (cholesterol, blood pressure, glucose control) that contribute health. Statistical Update presents latest data a range major clinical circulatory disease conditions (including congenital rhythm disorders,...
Whether closure of a patent foramen ovale is effective in the prevention recurrent ischemic stroke patients who have had cryptogenic unknown. We conducted trial to evaluate whether superior medical therapy alone preventing or early death 18 60 years age.In this prospective, multicenter, randomized, event-driven trial, we randomly assigned patients, 1:1 ratio, ovale. The primary results were analyzed when target 25 end-point events been observed and adjudicated.We enrolled 980 (mean age, 45.9...
Whether closure of a patent foramen ovale reduces the risk recurrence ischemic stroke in patients who have had cryptogenic is unknown.
Research based on administrative data has advantages, including large numbers, consistent data, and low cost. This study was designed to compare different methods of stroke classification using data.Administrative hospital discharge medical record review 206 patients were used evaluate 3 algorithms for classifying patients. These all (algorithm 1), the first 2 2), or primary 3) diagnosis code(s). The diagnoses after considered gold standard. Then, a set, we compared with their code in...
Withdrawal of support in patients with severe brain injury invariably leads to death. Preconceived notions about futility care intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) may prompt withdrawal support, and modeling outcome patient populations whom occurs lead self-fulfilling prophecies.Subjects included consecutive supratentorial ICH. Radiographic characteristics the hemorrhage, clinical variables, neurologic were assessed. Attitudes examined among members departments neurology surgery through a written...
The authors identified 298 diagnoses of moyamoya in California and Washington from hospital discharge databases during the period 1987 to 1998. incidence was 0.086/100,000 persons. ethnicity-specific rate ratios compared whites were 4.6 (95% CI: 3.4 6.3) for Asian Americans, 2.2 1.3 2.4) African 0.5 0.3 0.8) Hispanics. lower than reported Japan, but among U.S. Asians is similar.
Recent data suggest that a thrombogenic atrial substrate can cause stroke in the absence of fibrillation. Such an cardiopathy may explain some proportion cryptogenic strokes.
<h3>Importance</h3> Many patients receive suboptimal rehabilitation therapy doses after stroke owing to limited access therapists and difficulty with transportation, their knowledge about is often limited. Telehealth can potentially address these issues. <h3>Objectives</h3> To determine whether treatment targeting arm movement delivered via a home-based telerehabilitation (TR) system has comparable efficacy dose-matched, intensity-matched in traditional in-clinic (IC) setting, examine this...
Although studies have attempted to differentiate intracranial vascular disease using vessel wall magnetic resonance imaging (VWI), none incorporated multicontrast imaging. This study uses T1- and T2-weighted VWI vasculopathies.We retrospectively reviewed patients with clinically defined vasculopathies causing luminal stenosis/irregularity who underwent studies. Two blinded experts evaluated T1 precontrast postcontrast characteristics, including the pattern of thickening; presence, pattern,...
The incidence and prevalence of most cardiovascular disorders increase with age, disease is the leading cause death major disability in adults ≥75 years age; however, despite large impact on quality life, morbidity, mortality older adults, patients aged have been markedly underrepresented trials, virtually all trials excluded complex comorbidities, significant physical or cognitive disabilities, frailty, residence a nursing home assisted living facility. As result, current guidelines are...
Importance Atrial cardiopathy is associated with stroke in the absence of clinically apparent atrial fibrillation. It unknown whether anticoagulation, which has proven benefit fibrillation, prevents patients and no Objective To compare anticoagulation vs antiplatelet therapy for secondary prevention cryptogenic evidence cardiopathy. Design, Setting, Participants Multicenter, double-blind, phase 3 randomized clinical trial 1015 participants cardiopathy, defined as P-wave terminal force...
To perform a health maintenance organization-based case-control study to evaluate the association of total and high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol with risk stroke subtypes in patient subgroups.Cases had confirmed incident ischemic (n = 1,242) or hemorrhagic 313). Controls 6,455) were identified companion myocardial infarction study. Risk was modeled using logistic regression.The highest quintile associated an increased compared lowest (OR 1.6, 95% CI 1.3 2.0) strongest subtype...
Object. The goal of this study was to determine whether a hospital's volume subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) cases affects mortality rates in patients with SAH. For certain serious illnesses and surgical procedures, outcome has been associated hospital case volume. Subarachnoid hemorrhage, usually resulting from ruptured cerebral aneurysm, yields high rate. There no multistate diverse set hospitals in-hospital are influenced by SAH cases. Methods. authors conducted an analysis retrospective,...
Hematomas that enlarge following presentation with primary intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) are associated increased mortality, but the mechanisms of hematoma enlargement poorly understood. We interpreted presence contrast extravasation into after CT angiography (CTA) as evidence ongoing and sought to identify clinical significance well factors risk extravasation.We reviewed records radiographic studies all patients intracranial undergoing CTA from 1994 1997. Only ICH were included in this...
