Influence of Preexisting Cognitive Impairment on Clinical Severity of Ischemic Stroke: The Dijon Stroke Registry.

Background and Purpose- The ongoing ageing population is associated with an increasing number of patients with stroke who have preexisting cognitive impairment. This study aimed to evaluate clinical severity in patients with ischemic stroke according to prestroke cognitive status. Methods- Patients with ischemic stroke were prospectively identified among residents of Dijon, France using a population-based registry (2013-2017).

Long-Term Relative Survival after Stroke: The Dijon Stroke Registry.

Objective: The aim of this study was to assess long-term survival after stroke and to compare survival profiles of patients according to stroke subtypes, age, and sex, using relative survival (RS) method.

Methods: All patients with a first-ever stroke were prospectively recorded in the population-based Dijon Stroke Registry from 1987 to 2016. RS is the survival that would be observed if stroke was the only cause of death.

Impact of the Ageing Population on the Burden of Stroke: The Dijon Stroke Registry.

Background: We aimed to evaluate the impact of the ageing population on temporal trends in burden of stroke and to provide projections for the coming years.

Methods: Stroke cases (ischemic strokes, spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhages, or undetermined strokes) were prospectively identified between 1987 and 2015 in Dijon, France, using a population-based registry. Age-standardized incidence rates of first-ever and recurrent stroke were calculated, and their temporal trends were assessed using age- and sex-adjusted annual incidence rate ratios (RR).

Increasing Burden of Stroke: The Dijon Stroke Registry (1987-2012).

Background: We aimed to provide a representation of the global burden of stroke.

Methods: All cases of stroke were prospectively identified through the population-based registry of Dijon, France (1987-2012). Attack rates and mortality rates (defined as stroke leading to death within 30 days) were standardized to the European standard.

Temporal trends in the premorbid use of preventive treatments in patients with acute ischemic cerebrovascular events and a history of vascular disease: The Dijon Stroke Registry (1985-2010).

Introduction: Although secondary prevention in patients with arterial vascular diseases has improved, a gap between recommendations and clinical practice may exist.

Objectives: We aimed to evaluate temporal trends in the premorbid use of preventive treatments in patients with ischemic cerebrovascular events (ICVE) and prior vascular disease.

Methods: Patients with acute ICVE (ischemic stroke/TIA) were identified through the population-based stroke registry of Dijon, France (1985-2010).
