Purpose: To explore the molecular mechanism of glycine in improving ischemic stroke.
Patients And Methods: The serum samples of patients with ischemic stroke and healthy people were compared. The ischemic stroke model of PC12 cells was established by oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD). qPCR quantified miR-19a-3p and AMPK mRNA, and protein expression was detected by Western blot. MTT was used to detect cell activity. Flow cytometry was used to detect cells. Glucose metabolism kit was used to detect glucose intake and formation amount of lactic acid.
Results: Compared with the control group, OGD group (OGDG) showed lower cell activity and increased cell apoptosis. TNF-α, IL-1βI, L-6, Caspase 3, Caspase 9 and Bax were up-regulated, and Glut1, HK2, LDHA, PDK1, PKM2 and Bcl2 were down-regulated. At the same time, glucose intake, formation amount of lactic acid and cell apoptosis rate were reduced, and AMPK/GSK-3β/HO-1 pathway activity was down-regulated. Glycine could counteract the above phenomena in OGDG. miR-19a-3p and AMPK decreased and increased, respectively, during glycine therapy. AMPK was the target gene of miR-19a-3p. Rescue experiments demonstrated that glycine improved cell apoptosis, inflammatory response and glucose metabolism disorder of ischemic stroke through miR-19a-3p/AMPK/GSK-3β/HO-1 pathway.
Conclusion: Glycine improves ischemic stroke through miR-19a-3p/AMPK/GSK-3β/HO-1 pathway.

Objectives: To describe age-standardized incidence and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) of ischemic stroke (IS), intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), and subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) from 1990 to 2019 and forecast these variables using the Global Burden of Diseases (GBD) data over the next years (2020-2030).
Methods: Poisson regression models were employed to identify significant changes in incidence rate ratios (IRRs) and DALY rates for different stroke types. For time series models, the autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) and exponential smoothing state space (ETS) models were used for forecasting.
Safe Implementation of Treatments in Stroke: a study on intravenous thrombolysis in patients over 80 years of age with acute ischaemic stroke.

Department of Neurology, Karolinska University Hospital, Stockholm, Sweden.
Objectives: To investigate the safety and efficacy outcomes of intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) in patients aged >80 years with acute ischaemic stroke (AIS) after IVT was approved in this patient population in several European and non-European countries during 2018-2019.
Design: This is an observational registry study using prospectively collected data from the Safe Implementation of Treatment in Stroke (SITS) registry. Comparisons will be performed between patients treated post-approval (July 2018 to December 2021) period with those treated pre-approval (June 2015 to June 2018) period using propensity score matching (PSM).

Background: Stroke patients with large vessel occlusions risk long-term or permanent sickness absence. We aimed to analyze the proportions and days of sickness absence and disability pension in thrombectomy-treated patients.
Methods: A register-based nationwide longitudinal cohort study of stroke patients treated with mechanical thrombectomy in 2016-2021 in Sweden (identified through the Swedish Board of Health and Welfare procedural code for care interventions, KVÅ:AAL15).
