Persistent facial pain in post-stroke patients, a hospital-based cohort study; experience from North India.

Background: Post-stroke pain is common after a stroke and might be underreported. We describe Persistent Facial Pain (PFP) developed in post-stroke patients.

Method: ology: This was a prospective hospital-based cohort study of stroke patients, and patients were followed up.

The effect of low dose thyroid replacement therapy in patients with episodic migraine and subclinical hypothyroidism: A randomised placebo-controlled trial.

Introduction: Migraine is a common headache syndrome associated with various other comorbidities. Thyroid replacement in migraine patients with hypothyroidism improves headaches; however, thyroid hormone replacement in subclinical hypothyroidism is debatable, and its efficacy is not known.

Objective And Methodology: This prospective, single-centre, quasi-randomised interventional study was conducted on patients visiting the General Medicine and Neurology outpatient department at a tertiary centre to look at the efficacy of thyroxine in subclinical hypothyroidism.

Effect of persistent organic pollutants in patients with ischemic stroke and all stroke: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

The role of environmental contaminants and their association with stroke is still being determined. Association has been shown with air pollution, noise, and water pollution; however, the results are inconsistent across studies. A systematic review and meta-analysis of the effect of persistent organic pollutants (POP) in ischemic stroke patients were conducted; a comprehensive literature search was carried out until 30th June 2021 from different databases.

Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of Environmental Toxic Metal Contaminants and the Risk of Ischemic Stroke.

Background: Stroke is the second largest cause of mortality (WHO 2014) and long-lasting disability worldwide. Many risk factors are associated with stroke, such as age, gender, chronic illnesses, cardiovascular disease, lifestyle, and smoking. With global industrialization, the roles of environmental contaminants and their association with stroke are still unclear and have attracted much more attention.
