Prepping my summary slide of #ESOC2025 for residents talk.. So much has happened ❤️🧠 ✨ #stroke #voiceofstroke

#MondayTip The stroke pathway and #ESOC2025 result Last week, Helsinki brought together the world’s leading stroke experts—leaving us with new evidence, fresh questions, and future challenges. All with one goal: improving outcomes for our patients European Stroke Org

Temporal trends of (traditional) vascular risk factors among young adults w/ischemic #stroke in the Florida Stroke Registry neurology.org/doi/10.1212/WN… Not a surprise these RFs are prevalent but they are also increasing. Important opportunity to manage competing risks in #youngstroke

Combined oral contraceptives and association with cervical artery dissection and #stroke thrombosisresearch.com/article/S0049-… Hmm, have to think about this one for a bit.

Long term prognosis of ischemic #stroke in young adults at a Chinese stroke center onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/br… Large artery atherosclerosis = most frequent etiology, low education = biggest risk factor for recurrent stroke. Underscores regional/national differences in #youngstroke

Return to work after ischemic #stroke in young adults (cohort, systematic review, and meta-analysis) ahajournals.org/doi/full/10.11… Nice effort to dive deeper into predictors relevant for #youngstroke SAYA Program Generally, factors leading to more severe damage = lower RTW rates

Study of quality of life & mental health in #youngstroke survivors in Spain pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40118171/ High rate of depression and anxiety, low rate of return to work SAYA Program Underscores need for active late complications after stroke (LCAS) screening and management!

This is surprising In this meta-analysis of over 10k patients the rate of symptomatic intracranial bleeding was actually lower on apixaban vs aspirin (relative risk 0.67, P=0.10) 🤔 ahajournals.org/doi/abs/10.116…

Lipoprotein (a) as a predictor of white matter disease in young patients with #stroke pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40327115/ Lp(a) seems to be associated with WMD which is connected to stroke and #dementia risk, in addition to athero and hypercoagulability SAYA Program

Our #stroke team is leading community events on healthy eating, food insecurity and stroke prevention. With grant support, they assembled 300+ gift bags with food, gift cards and resources. 📸 Lester Y. Leung, MD, MSc, Katelyn Skeels, Tarim Fahim, Sandy Tan

Lipoprotein (a) in youth and childhood associated with arterial ischemic #stroke risk - meta-analysis journals.lww.com/jcardiovascula… I suspect in kids that the hypercoagulable properties of Lp(a) are the contributing factor #youngstroke

Mortality from vascular disease among Asians of different nationalities in the US sciencedirect.com/science/articl… Heterogeneity between nationalities and different vascular diseases (#stroke, MI, heart failure, etc). Turns out not all Asians are alike...

Burden of modifiable risk factors in "cryptogenic" #youngstroke with high risk patent foramen ovale (PFO) ahajournals.org/doi/full/10.11… Underscores differences in the contribution of traditional vs nontraditional risk factors when considering interactions w/PFO. Migraine is important!

1/Does trying to memorize inflammatory myelopathies leave you inflamed? Do you say “Oh my!” when you see my-elopathy?? Never fear, read on for this month’s @theAJNR SCANtastic for all you need to know: ajnr.org/content/46/6/1…

Cortical vein thrombosis is a very challenging diagnosis to make. Imaging findings = hyperdense cortical vein & cashew nut sign (juxta-cortical hemorrhage) on CT. MRI with SWI is the gold standard (below). Make sure to look carefully at all cuts including topmost! #stroke #CVT

Association between seizure control for women with epilepsy during pregnancy and adverse fetal outcomes jnnp.bmj.com/content/96/7/6… #neurology #epilepsy

Does Hemorrhagic Infarction Affect Stroke Recovery? Evidence from PACIFIC-STROKE In this #BloggingStroke post, Harsimran discusses #Stroke article by Antony Chen et al. ahajournals.org/do/10.1161/blo… Pooja Khatri Eric_Smith_VCI Professor Hanne Christensen Gian Marco De Marchis, MD MSc Ashkan Shoamanesh

Large-Core Paradox | Stroke ahajournals.org/doi/full/10.11…

Feel like waving the white flag over white matter disease? Do you grade the degree of small vessel disease, or just mention & hope no one asks for more? Degree of small vessel disease is important & the Fazekas scale is an easy way to semi-quantitate disease burden Here’s how

1/The medulla is anything but DULL! Does seeing an infarct in the medulla cause your heart to skip a beat? Does medullary anatomy send you into respiratory arrest? Never fear, here is a thread on the major medullary syndromes!
