Thirty-six months recurrence after acute ischemic stroke among patients with comorbid type 2 diabetes: A nested case-control study.

Background: Stroke patients have to face a high risk of recurrence, especially for those with comorbid T2DM, which usually lead to much more serious neurologic damage and an increased likelihood of death. This study aimed to explore determinants of stroke relapse among patients with comorbid T2DM.

Materials And Methods: We conducted this case-control study nested a prospective cohort of ischemic stroke (IS) with comorbid T2DM.

Acute Ischemic Stroke Comorbid with Type 2 Diabetes: Long-Term Prognosis Determinants in a 36-Month Prospective Study for Personalized Medicine.

Ischemic stroke (IS) is often comorbid with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) wherein the determinants of long-term outcomes, beyond the acute stroke phase, are not adequately known. This study identified the determinants of long-term outcomes for diabetic IS patients through a prospective nested case-control study in 624 patients treated with conservative measures (38.60% females, mean age: 63.

Association between self-efficacy and self-management behaviours among individuals at high risk for stroke: Social support acting as a mediator.

Aims And Objectives: To explore the association between self-efficacy and self-management by modelling three types of social support as mediators among stroke high-risk populations.

Background: Self-efficacy and social support (i.e.
