The process by which stroke survivors move toward health while facing various difficulties can be construed as a "transition." Importantly, nurses need to understand and support this state of transition effectively. This study developed a situation-specific theory to explain post-stroke transition by integrating the findings of a qualitative study that explored the rehabilitation experiences of stroke survivors with dysphagia with a scoping review of qualitative studies using the theoretical framework of transition theory. This theory will help understand the transitions that stroke survivors with dysphagia undergo during recovery and provide a framework for exploring nursing care to support healthy transitions.

Objectives The study aimed at estimating the triglyceride glucose (TyG) index in patients with ischemic stroke, exploring the correlation between the TyG index and the prognosis of ischemic stroke, and studying the clinical outcome in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) in association with the TyG index. Methods An observational study was conducted on 105 patients with a history of AIS presenting within 24 hours. The TyG index was estimated, and the clinical outcome was studied.

The recent identification of Piezo ion channels demonstrating a mechano-sensitive impact on neurons revealed distinct Piezo-1 and 2 types. While Piezo-1 predominates in neurons linked to non-sensory stimulation, such as pressure in blood vessels, Piezo-2 predominates in neurons linked to sensory stimulation, such as touch. Piezo-1 and 2 have a major bidirectional impact on transient receptor potential (TRP) ion channels, and TRPs also impact neurotransmitter release.
