Background: Dementia is a frequent condition in stroke patients.
Aims: To investigate the effect of dementia on access to diagnostic procedures in ischaemic stroke patients.
Methods: All cases of ischaemic stroke from 2006 to 2010 were identified from the population-based Stroke Registry of Dijon, France.
Article Synopsis
- Physical exercise can improve recovery after stroke by enhancing BDNF-dependent neuroplasticity, but the best exercise parameters are unclear.
- The study tested treadmill exercise (0.3 m/s for 30 min/day over 7 days) on both stroke-affected and control rats, measuring levels of BDNF and its precursor, proBDNF.
- Exercise notably increased mature BDNF in both groups in the cortex, though only intact rats showed higher proBDNF, indicating that the exercise effects might differ based on stroke history.
- Future research should focus on understanding exercise conditions that enhance mature BDNF levels and explore the role of cerebral endothelial cells in BDNF release post-exercise.
Although statin therapy has been shown to be effective in the prevention of ischemic stroke, its effect on stroke severity and early outcome is still controversial. We aimed to evaluate the association between statin use before onset and both initial severity and functional outcome in ischemic stroke patients. All cases of first-ever ischemic stroke that occurred in Dijon, France (151,000 inhabitants) between 2006 and 2011 were prospectively identified from the Dijon Stroke Registry.

Methods: All cases of first-ever ICH were identified from the population-based Stroke Registry of Dijon, France from 1985 to 2009. Clinical and radiological information was recorded.
We aimed to demonstrate that a stroke network is able to reduce the proportion of recurrent cerebrovascular events. In 2003, we set up a care network with the aim to reduce the proportion of stroke recurrence. For the statistical analysis, recurrent cerebrovascular events observed from 1985 to 2002 within the population of Dijon made it possible to model trends using Poisson logistic regression.

- The study aimed to assess how age, the time period of stroke occurrence, and birth year cohorts influence stroke incidence rates from 1985 to 2005 in Dijon.
- Age-period-cohort models were utilized to analyze comprehensive data from a stroke registry covering the entire Dijon population.
- The findings revealed that ischemic stroke incidence increased over time in men based on age and cohort effects, while for women, it was solely age-dependent; hemorrhagic stroke trends varied similarly, indicating the significance of these factors in understanding long-term stroke trends.
We describe here 7 elderly patients with a transient neurological deficit due to a focal subarachnoid haemorrhage, identified from the Dijon Stroke Registry over 4 years. These 7 patients presented a clinical pattern marked by focal paraesthesia, with several stereotyped focal episodes (5 of the 7 cases), lasting less than 30 min (6 of the 7 cases), and associated with a cognitive decline (4 of the 7 cases). Headache was present in only 1 case.
