Global Burden

Background: Ischemic heart disease is more prevalent than ischemic stroke in most countries, including the United States; however, recent data suggests that ischemic stroke may be more prevalent in some countries. We performed this study to identify the countries with an inverse ratio of ischemic stroke and ischemic heart disease and associated attributes. Methods: We analyzed the data using the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) website; GBD Compare tool published by the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME), Seattle, Washington for the year 2017. We categorized individual 195 countries based on the ratio of ischemic stroke/ischemic heart disease and divided them into ≥1.0, 0,5-99, and <0.5. Gross domestic product (GDP) per capita for each country was calculated using data from Worldometers. Results: There were 51, 125, and 19 countries with the ratio of ischemic stroke/ischemic heart disease and divided them into ≤0.5, 0.5-0.99, and ≥1.0 respectively (see Table). The range of ratio was between 0.24 and 1.86. Countries with inverse ratio included China (1.86), North Korea (1.31), Guam (1.28), Taiwan (1.20), Marshall Islands (1.15), Timor-Leste (1.16), South Korea (1.13), Seychelles (1.11), Northern Mariana Islands (1.10), Cambodia (1.09), Federated States of Micronesia (1.08), American Samoa (1.07), Samoa (1.06), Kiribati (1.04), Solomon Islands (1.03), Fiji (1.02), Indonesia (1.02), Mauritius (1.01), and Vanuatu (1.00). Conclusions: Approximately 1 out of 10 countries have an inverse ratio of ischemic stroke / ischemic heart disease incidences. The inverse ratio is predominantly driven by a lower incidence of ischemic heart disease.

Meta Analyses

The goal of this study was to better depict the short-term risk of stroke and its associated factors among SARS-CoV-2 hospitalized patients. Data Source: This multicenter, multinational observational study includes hospitalized SARS-CoV-2 patients from North and South America (United States, Canada, and Brazil), Europe (Greece, Italy, Finland, and Turkey), Asia (Lebanon, Iran, and India), and Oceania (New Zealand). Main Outcomes and Measures: The outcome was the risk of subsequent stroke (ischemic stroke, intracranial hemorrhage, cerebral venous/sinus thrombosis). The counts and clinical characteristics including laboratory findings and imaging of the patients with and without a subsequent stroke were recorded according to a predefined study protocol. Data Extraction and Synthesis: Quality, risk of bias, and heterogeneity assessments were conducted according to ROBINS-E and Cochrane Q-test. The risk of subsequent stroke was estimated through meta-analyses with random effect models. Binary logistic regression was used to determine the associated factors with the outcome measure. The study was reported according to the STROBE, MOOSE, and EQUATOR guidelines. Results: We received data from 18,311 hospitalized SARS-CoV-2 patients from 77 tertiary centers in 46 regions of 11 countries until May 1 st , 2020. A total of 17,799 patients were included in meta-analyses. Among them, 156(0.9%) patients had a stroke—123(79%) ischemic stroke, 27(17%) intracerebral/subarachnoid hemorrhage, and 6(4%) cerebral sinus thrombosis. Subsequent stroke risks calculated with meta-analyses, under low to moderate heterogeneity, were 0.5% among all centers in all countries, and 0.7% among countries with higher health expenditures. The need for mechanical ventilation (OR: 1.9, 95% CI:1.1-3.5, p = 0.03) and the presence of ischemic heart disease (OR: 2.5, 95% CI:1.4-4.7, p =0·006) were predictive of stroke. Conclusion and Relevance: The results of this multi-national study on hospitalized patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection indicated an overall stroke risk of 0.5% (pooled risk: 0.9%). The need for mechanical ventilation and the history of ischemic heart disease are the independent predictors of stroke among SARS-CoV-2 patients.

Background and Purpose: Several prospective cohort studies and a randomized clinical trial have shown the beneficial effects of peanut consumption on cardiovascular disease and its risk factors. We examined the association between peanut consumption and risk of cardiovascular disease in Japanese men and women. Methods: We analyzed data of 74 793 participants aged 45 to 74 years who completed a lifestyle questionnaire including the validated food frequency questionnaire in the Japan Public Health Center–based Prospective Study. They were followed up from 1995 to 2009 for cohort I and from 1998 to 1999 to 2012 for cohort II. Peanut consumption was calculated from the food frequency questionnaire, and the end points were incidence of stroke, ischemic heart disease, and cardiovascular disease (stroke and ischemic heart disease). Results: During a median follow-up of 14.8 years, 3,599 strokes and 849 ischemic heart diseases were reported. Higher peanut consumption was associated with reduced risks of total stroke, ischemic stroke, and cardiovascular disease among men and women. The multivariable hazard ratios (95% CIs) for the highest versus lowest quartiles of peanut consumption after adjustment for age, sex, public health center, smoking, alcohol consumption, perceived stress level, physical activity, vegetable, fruit, fish, soy, sodium and total energy intakes, body mass index, history of hypertension, history of diabetes, and cholesterol-lowering drug were 0.84 (0.77–0.93, P for trend=0.002) for total stroke, 0.80 (0.71–0.90, P for trend=0.002) for ischemic stroke, 0.93 (0.79–1.08, P for trend=0.27) for hemorrhagic stroke, 0.97 (0.80–1.17, P for trend=0.81) for ischemic heart disease and 0.87 (0.80–0.94, P for trend=0.004) for cardiovascular disease, and these associations were similarly observed in both sexes. Conclusions: Higher peanut consumption was associated with reduced risk of stroke, especially ischemic stroke, but not ischemic heart disease in Japanese men and women.

Aim      To develop a model for evaluating the risk of stroke in patients after exacerbation of ischemic heart disease who were admitted to the hospitals included into a vascular program.Materials and methods This study included 1803 patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) from four institutions of Moscow, Kazan, Astrakhan, and Krasnodar where the vascular program was established. Mean age of patients was 64.9±12.78 years, 62,1 % of them were men. The patients were followed up for one year after the discharge from the hospital. External validation of the developed prognostic model was performed on a cohort of patients with ACS included into the RECORD-3 study.Results During the follow-up period, 42 cases of ischemic stroke were observed. The risk of ischemic stroke was associated with the presence of atrial fibrillation (odd ratio (OR) 2.640; р=0.037), diabetes mellitus (OR 2.718; р=0.041), and chronic heart failure (OR 7.049; р=0.011). Protective factors were high-density lipoprotein cholesterol >1 mmol/l (OR 0.629; р=0.041), percutaneous coronary intervention during an index hospitalization (OR 0.412; р=0.042), anticoagulant treatment (OR 0.670; р=0.049), and achieving the blood pressure goal (OR 0.604; р=0.023). The prognostic model developed on the basis of regression analysis showed a good predictive value (area under the ROC curve, 0.780), sensitivity of 80 %, and specificity of 64.6 %. The diagnostic value of other scales for risk assessment was somewhat lower. The area under the ROC curve was 0.692±0.0245 for the GRACE scale and 0.708±0.0334 for CHA2DS2‑VASc. In the external validation of the scale based on data of the RECORD-3 study, the diagnostic value was lower although satisfactory as well (area under the ROC curve, 0.651); sensitivity was 78.9 %, and specificity was 52.3 %.Conclusion      The study resulted in development of a simple clinical scale, which will probably allow identifying groups at risk of stroke more precisely than with standard scales.

Objectives: This research is to measure the prevalence rate of antiplatelet resistance in ischemic stroke patients and measure the vascular risk factors associated with antiplatelet resistance in patients with ischemic stroke. Methods and Subjects: This was a cross-sectional study with the number of respondents in this study amounted to 155 patients who all had ischemic stroke disease at Bethesda Hospital in Yogyakarta Indonesia used stroke registry to complete the data of the risk factors. VerifyNow method is used to measure the responsiveness of antiplatelet therapy. Results: Among the 155 patients with ischemic stroke, 45 were women (29%), 110 were men (71%), and the elderly (age more than 60 years old) in 81 patients. In total 155 patients with ischemic stroke, 106 of them have hypertensive, with diabetes are 19 patients, dyslipidemia is 90 patients, and ischemic heart disease in 13 patients. The prevalence of antiplatelet resistance in risk factors, for age more than 60 years, is 21 patients (25%, RR=1.06, *p=0.96), in diabetes is 7 patients (36%, RR=1.17, **p=0.74), dyslipidemia is 19 patients (21%, RR=0.68, ***p=0.24), and ischemic heart disease is four patients (30%). Among 127 patients, 22% (28 patients) had aspirin resistance, while from 42 patients, 26.2% (11 patients) were resistant to clopidogrel. Conclusion: Antiplatelet resistance is common in ischemic stroke patients. One of five patients treated with antiplatelet showed non-responsiveness. Vascular risk factors do not increase the risk of antiplatelet resistance in ischemic stroke patients.

Background and purpose: Patients with transient ischemic attack (TIA) occasionally accompany nonfocal symptoms, such as decreased consciousness, confusion, amnesia, and unsteadiness. The purpose of this study was to clarify characteristics and prognosis of TIA patients having nonfocal symptoms, using data of the PROspective Multicenter registry to Identify Subsequent cardiovascular Events after TIA (PROMISE-TIA). Methods: Patients with TIA within 7 days of onset were consecutively enrolled in the Japanese nationwide registry. Factors associated with nonfocal symptoms and 1-year risk of ischemic stroke and ischemic heart disease were assessed in logistic regression and Kaplan-Meier models, respectively. Results: We studied 1348 patients with TIA (871 men, mean age of 69.4±12.4 years). Two hundred and nineteen patients (16%) had nonfocal symptoms. Patients with nonfocal symptoms were more likely to have both diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI)-positive lesions and stenosis/occlusion on vascular examination (magnetic resonance/computed tomographic angiography, or carotid ultrasound) in posterior circulation than those without (11% vs. 4%, p<0.001, 20% vs. 11%, p<0.001), but were otherwise broadly similar with respect to other baseline characteristics. Although 1-year risk of ischemic stroke was not different between the two groups (7.5% vs. 8.2%, p=0.756), the risk of ischemic heart disease was higher in patients with nonfocal symptoms (3.1% vs. 1.2%, p=0.046). Conclusions: Both ischemic changes and arterial stenosis/occlusion in posterior circulation were more frequently observed in TIA patients with nonfocal symptoms and they seem to be at high risk of ischemic heart disease.
