Objective: To determine the influence of multiple sclerosis (MS) on in-hospital outcomes of patients with hemorrhagic strokes using a large, nationally representative database.

Materials And Methods: This population-based, retrospective study extracted data of adults with hemorrhagic stroke from the US Nationwide Inpatient Sample (NIS) database from 2016 to 2018. Patients with/without MS were then compared. Hemorrhagic stroke and MS were identified by the International Classification of Diseases, Tenth editions (ICD-10) codes. In-hospital outcomes (i.e., in-hospital mortality, discharge destination, length of stay [LOS], total hospital cost, and major complications) were compared between subjects with and without MS using logistic regression analysis.

Results: Among 107,573 patients with hemorrhagic stroke, 0.3% (n=337) had MS. After 1:10 propensity-score (PS) matching, 3,707 patients remained in the analytic sample. Multivariable analysis revealed that patients with MS had significantly shorter LOS (adjusted β=-1.34 days; 95% CI: -2.41 to -0.26, p=0.015), and lower total hospital costs (adjusted β=-28.82; 95% CI: -43.57 to -14.06, p<0.001) than those without MS. No significant different risks of any major complications, in-hospital mortality, or transfer to nursing homes/long-term care facilities were observed. For major complications, patients with MS had a significantly lower risk of cerebral edema than those without MS (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] = 0.66, 95%CI: 0.51 to 0.86, p =0.002) CONCLUSIONS: In hospitalized patients with hemorrhagic stroke, those with MS have shorter LOS, lower costs, and a lower risk of cerebral edema compared to no MS. More relevant experiments and studies are needed to confirm results of this study.

Background: Dupuytren's disease (DD) is a type of fibroproliferative disease that involves the palmar aspect of the hand. Although many benign fibroproliferative diseases have been shown to increase the risk of cardiovascular disease, the relationship between DD and myocardial infarction (MI) or stroke has not been fully elucidated.

Methods: A total of 35,909 patients with DD and a control cohort with 1,077,270 age- and sex-matched participants from the Korean National Health Insurance database were included.

Antiplatelets before or during endovascular therapy after intravenous thrombolysis for atherothrombotic large vessel occlusion.

J Clin Neurosci

Re-occlusion and intravascular thrombus formation following mechanical thrombectomy (MT) in stroke patients worsen clinical outcomes. Although early administration of antiplatelet therapy (APT) prevents these complications, current guidelines advise against using APT soon after intravenous thrombolysis (IVT), making the management of atherothrombotic large vessel occlusion (AT-LVO) difficult. We investigated the safety of early APT for acute AT-LVO treated with MT following IVT.

The aim of this study was to evaluate how COVID-19 affected acute stroke care and outcome in patients with acute ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke. We performed a retrospective analysis on patients who were admitted with acute ischemic (AIS) or hemorrhagic (ICH) stroke from September 2020 to May 2021 with and without COVID-19. We recorded demographic and clinical data, imaging parameters, functional outcome and mortality at one year.

Impact of percutaneous left atrial appendage occlusion on the severity of ischemic stroke.

Cardiovasc Revasc Med

December 2024

Division of Cardiovascular Medicine, University of Toledo Medical Center, Toledo, OH, United States of America. Electronic address:

Background: Percutaneous left atrial appendage occlusion (pLAAO) presents an alternative to anticoagulation (AC) for stroke prophylaxis in atrial fibrillation (Afib) patients with high bleeding risk. pLAAO was associated with lower rates of disabling stroke which was mainly attributed to the reduction of hemorrhagic stroke (HS). Little is known about the impact of pLAAO on the severity of ischemic strokes which we sought to study.

Background/objectives: Orthostatic hypotension (OH) is highly prevalent in hospitalized patients and can lead to major consequences. The prevalence of OH among patients with stroke has also been reported to be high in in-patient cohorts. However, no previous analysis has focused exclusively on patients with hemorrhagic stroke, a group that may have a different disease profile, including a greater need for blood pressure control and surgical intervention.
