Objective: In-hospital medical complications are common and costly. Outcomes of stroke patients are affected by medical complications. However, there are limited data investigating the effect of medical complications on stroke recurrence worldwide. We prospectively and systematically investigated the effect of in-hospital medical complications on recurrent stroke of patients with acute ischemic stroke at 3, 6 and 12 months in the China National Stroke Registry (CNSR). Methods: Prospective cohort study collected data of adult patients with acute ischemic stroke in 132 clinical centers distributed in 32 provinces and 4 municipalities (including Hong Kong region) of China, from September 2007 to August 2008. Data on in-hospital medical complications, recurrent stroke, adherence to stroke secondary prevention and other relative information were obtained from paper-based registry forms. Medical complications were associated with stroke outcomes using multivariable logistic regression. Results: Of the 10306 study patients, recurrent stroke occurred in 1637 (15.9%) within 12 months after stroke onset. In-hospital medical complications were independent risk factors for stroke recurrence in patients with acute ischemic stroke at 3 months (adjusted OR=2.19; 95% CI 1.85 to 2.60), 6 months (adjusted OR=2.04; 95% CI 1.74 to 2.38), and 12 months (adjusted OR=1.88; 95% CI 1.62 to 2.19) after onset. In-hospital medical complications decreased the adherence to stroke secondary prevention, may indirectly resulting in increased recurrent stroke events. Conclusions: The results demonstrated that the short-term and long-term stroke recurrence of acute ischemic patients is significantly affected by in-hospital medical complications, possibly through decreasing the persistence of secondary prevention following acute ischemic stroke.

Background and Purpose Despite administration of evidence-based therapies, residual risk of stroke recurrence persists. This study aimed to evaluate the residual risk of recurrent stroke in acute ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) with adherence to guideline-based secondary stroke prevention and identify the risk factors of the residual risk.Methods Patients with acute ischemic stroke or TIA within 7 hours were enrolled from 169 hospitals in Third China National Stroke Registry (CNSR-III) in China. Adherence to guideline-based secondary stroke prevention was defined as persistently receiving all of the five secondary prevention medications (antithrombotic, antidiabetic and antihypertensive agents, statin and anticoagulants) during hospitalization, at discharge, at 3, 6, and 12 months if eligible. The primary outcome was a new stroke at 12 months.Results Among 9,022 included patients (median age 63.0 years and 31.7% female), 3,146 (34.9%) were identified as adherence to guideline-based secondary prevention. Of all, 864 (9.6%) patients had recurrent stroke at 12 months, and the residual risk in patients with adherence to guidelinebased secondary prevention was 8.3%. Compared with those without adherence, patients with adherence to guideline-based secondary prevention had lower rate of recurrent stroke (hazard ratio, 0.85; 95% confidence interval, 0.74 to 0.99; P=0.04) at 12 months. Female, history of stroke, interleukin-6 ≥5.63 ng/L, and relevant intracranial artery stenosis were independent risk factors of the residual risk.Conclusions There was still a substantial residual risk of 12-month recurrent stroke even in patients with persistent adherence to guideline-based secondary stroke prevention. Future research should focus on efforts to reduce the residual risk.

Background and Purpose: Infection occurs commonly in patients with acute ischemic stroke. We aimed to investigate the association of infection with short- and long-term risk of recurrent stroke in patients with ischemic stroke. Methods: Data were derived from ischemic stroke patients in 2 stroke registries: the CSCA (Chinese Stroke Center Alliance) program recorded medical data during hospitalization, and the CNSR-III (Third China National Stroke Registry) recorded the medical data during hospitalization and finished 1-year follow-up. Associations of infection (pneumonia or urinary tract infection) during hospitalization with recurrent stroke in short (during hospitalization) and long term (since 30 days to 1 year after stroke onset) were analyzed. Short-term outcomes were analyzed with logistic models and long-term outcomes with Cox models. Results: In the CSCA (n=789 596), the incidence of infection during hospitalization reached 9.6%. Patients with infection had a higher risk of stroke recurrence during hospitalization compared with patients without infection (10.4% versus 5.2%; adjusted odds ratio, 1.70 [95% CI, 1.65–1.75]; P <0.0001). In the CNSR-III (n=13 549), the incidence of infection during hospitalization was 6.5%. Infection during hospitalization was significantly associated with short-term risk of recurrent stroke (7.4% versus 3.9%; adjusted odds ratio, 1.40 [95% CI, 1.05–1.86]; P =0.02) but not with long-term risk of recurrent stroke (7.2% versus 5.2%; adjusted hazard ratio, 1.16 [95% CI, 0.88–1.52]; P =0.30). Conclusions: Infection was an independent risk factor for high risk of early stroke recurrence during hospitalization, but we have not found its sustained effect on long-term recurrent risk in patients with acute ischemic stroke.

BackgroundMedical complications strongly affected the mortality of patients with stroke. However, only limited research has studied the effect of in-hospital medical complications on the mortality of patients with spontaneous intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) globally. Using the China National Stroke Registry, the effect was prospectively and systematically investigated in patients with spontaneous ICH during their hospitalisation, at 3, 6 and 12 months after disease onset.MethodsThis study collected data on patients over 18 years old with spontaneous ICH from 132 Chinese clinical centres across 32 provinces and four municipalities (Hong Kong included), from September 2007 to August 2008. Data on patient complications, death and other information were acquired through paper-based registry forms. Using multivariable logistic regression, the association of medical complications with stroke outcomes was evaluated.ResultsOf 3255 patients with spontaneous ICH, 878 (26.97%) had in-hospital medical complications. In-hospital medical complications were independent risk factors for death during the hospitalisation (adjusted OR 4.41, 95% CI 3.18 to 6.12), at 3 months (adjusted OR 2.18, 95% CI 1.70 to 2.80), 6 months (adjusted OR 1.84, 95% CI 1.45 to 2.34) and 12 months (adjusted OR 1.59, 95% CI 1.26 to 2.01) after spontaneous ICH.ConclusionThe results revealed that the short-term and long-term mortality of patients with spontaneous ICH in China was significantly associated with their in-hospital medical complications.

Abstract Background The relationship between aminotransferases and cardiovascular outcomes has been inconsistent in previous studies. We aimed to investigate the association of aminotransferases with clinical outcomes after acute ischemic stroke (AIS) or transient ischemic attack (TIA). Methods 17,178 AIS or TIA patients with serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels < 120 U/L were included from the China National Stroke Registry (CNSR) for current analysis. Composite endpoint is comprised of recurrent stroke and all-cause mortality. Poor functional outcome is defined as modified Rankin scale of 3-6. Multivariable logistic regression was used to evaluate the risks of one-year all-cause mortality, recurrent stroke, composite endpoint and poor functional outcome according to increasing sex-specific quintiles of ALT/ aspartate aminotransferase (AST) respectively. Results One-year incidences of all-cause mortality, recurrent stroke, composite endpoint and poor functional outcome were 11.9%, 6.0%, 13.7% and 28.2% respectively in patients with the lowest quintile of ALT, and 7.4%, 3.6%, 9.0% and 17.9% respectively in the highest quintile. Compared with the lowest ALT quintile, the adjusted odds ratios with 95% confidence interval of the highest quintile were 0.55 (0.43-0.70) for all-cause mortality, 0.61 (0.45-0.83) for stroke recurrence, 0.62 (0.49-0.77) for composite endpoint, and 0.67 (0.56-0.80) for poor functional outcome. There was no significant interaction of ALT with age, sex, diabetes, dyslipidemia and alcohol consumption for all outcomes (p for interaction ≥ 0.10). Conclusions Low serum ALT may serve as an independent predictor for all-cause mortality, stroke recurrence, composite endpoint and poor functional outcome after stroke.

Ischemic stroke and transient ischemic attack (TIA) are the most common cerebrovascular disorder and leading cause of death in China. The Effective secondary prevention is the vital strategy for reducing stroke recurrence. The aim of this guideline is to provide the most updated evidence-based recommendation to clinical physicians from the prior version. Control of risk factors, intervention for vascular stenosis/occlusion, antithrombotic therapy for cardioembolism, and antiplatelet therapy for noncardioembolic stroke are all recommended, and the prevention of recurrent stroke in a variety of uncommon causes and subtype provided as well. We modified the level of evidence and recommendation according to part of results from domestic RCT in order to facility the clinical practice.

Introduction: Enhancing intracranial atherosclerotic plaque on high-resolution vessel wall MRI (vwMRI) is a reliable marker of recent thromboembolism, and confers a recurrent stroke risk of up to 30% a year. Post-contrast plaque enhancement (PPE) on vwMRI is thought to represent inflammation, but studies have not fully examined the clinical, serologic or radiologic factors that contribute to PPE. Methods: Inpatients with acute ischemic stroke due to intracranial atherosclerosis were prospectively enrolled at a single center from 2015-16. vwMRI was performed on a 3T Siemens Verio and included 3D DANTE pulse sequences, pre- and post-contrast (for PPE identification). Three experienced neuroradiologists interpreted vwMRI using a validated multicontrast technique. The Chi-squared, Fisher’s Exact, and Student’s t-test were used for intergroup differences, and logistic regression was fitted to the primary outcome of PPE. Results: Inclusion criteria were met by 35 patients. Atherosclerotic plaques were in the anterior circulation in 21/35 (60%) and PPE was diagnosed in 20/35 (57%) of stroke parent arteries. PPE predictors are shown in Table 1 with logistic regression in Table 2 . Conclusion: PPE is associated with stenosis, which was expected, but the association with HgbA1c is novel. All patients with HgbA1c >8 had PPE and a one point HgbA1c rise increased the odds of PPE 3-fold. Hyperglycemia induces vascular oxidative stress by generating reactive oxygen species, quenching nitric oxide, and triggering an inflammatory cascade. Given the high rate of stroke recurrence in PPE patients, aggressive HgbA1c reduction may be a viable treatment target and warrants additional study.

Uncontrolled Blood Pressure

Background: Hypertension is considered major risk factor for incidence of ischemic stroke, controlling blood pressure reduces this risk, the relationship of uncontrolled blood pressure and stroke outcomes is complex, post stroke uncontrolled blood pressure remains one of the major contributing factors for stroke recurrence and mortality, in our study we studied the long term effects of uncontrolled hypertension in modern health care setting. Methodology: Patients in the study were admitted to the neurology department at KFSH-D between March 2015- August 2019, we included 102 acute ischemic stroke patients whom had hypertension, all patients had follow up appointments at stroke clinic a minimum of 2 visits over 4 years. We retrospectively compared blood pressure data from stroke patients with recurrent ischemic stroke events vs. patients with initial stroke event, and recurrent stroke, also we studied blood pressure readings for different stroke severity groups, patients who had severe stroke with mRS>4, compared to milder stroke group of mRS<4. Results: We found 48 patients identified with recurrent stroke event, those with uncontrolled hypertension had significantly higher stroke recurrence events (P=0.002), despite acute stroke treatment, patients who had history of uncontrolled hypertension were found to have more severe stroke deficits than those who had controlled blood pressure (P=0.029). We found significant difference in the long term stroke clinical outcomes between patients who had uncontrolled blood pressure and patients who had controlled blood pressure recordings within the same hospital setting (P=0.064). Conclusion: Based on our findings, uncontrolled hypertension was associated with higher risk of stroke recurrence, it also increased susceptibility to worse stroke clinical outcomes up to 1 year after initial stroke event, which deserved further close attention and better blood pressure control.

Background: This study assessed the incidence and predictors of short-term stroke recurrence in ischemic stroke patients with active cancer, and elucidated whether cancer-associated hypercoagulation is related to early recurrent stroke. Methods: We retrospectively enrolled acute ischemic stroke patients with active cancer admitted to our hospital between 2006 and 2017. Active cancer was defined as diagnosis or treatment for any cancer within 12 months before stroke onset, known recurrent cancer or metastatic disease. The primary clinical outcome was recurrent ischemic stroke within 30 days. Results: One hundred ten acute ischemic stroke patients with active cancer (73 men, age 71.3 ± 10.1 years) were enrolled. Of those, recurrent stroke occurred in 12 patients (11%). When patients with and without recurrent stroke were compared, it was found that those with recurrent stroke had a higher incidence of pancreatic cancer (33 vs. 10%), systemic metastasis (75 vs. 39%), multiple vascular territory infarctions (MVTI; 83 vs. 40%), and higher ­D-dimer levels (16.9 vs. 2.9 µg/mL). Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that each factor mentioned above was not significantly associated with stroke recurrence independently, but high D-dimer (hDD) levels (≥10.4 µg/mL) and MVTI together were significantly associated with stroke recurrence (OR 6.20, 95% CI 1.42–30.7, p = 0.015). Conclusions: Ischemic stroke patients with active cancer faced a high risk of early recurrent stroke. The concurrence of hDD levels (≥10.4 µg/mL) and MVTI was an independent predictor of early recurrent stroke in active cancer patients. Our findings suggest that cancer-associated hypercoagulation increases the early recurrent stroke risk.

The Impact

Intracranial artery calcification can be detected on nonenhanced brain computer tomography (NECT) and is a predictor of early vascular events. Here, we assessed the impact of vertebrobasilar artery calcification (VBC) on the long-term risk for recurrent stroke and vascular events. We performed a case-control trial of all consecutive stroke patients admitted to the University Hospital of Maribor, Slovenia over a period of 14 months. VBC was defined as presence of a hyperdense area within vertebrobasilar arteries that exceeds > 90 Hounsfield units as seen on NECT. Clinical follow-up information was obtained from the hospital documentation system and mortality registry of the district and included recurrent stroke, subsequent vascular events (myocardial infarction, heart failure, peripheral arterial occlusive disease), and death. We followed a total of 448 patients for a median of 1505 days (interquartile range, IQR 188-2479). Evidence for VBC was present in 243 (54.2%) patients. Median age was 76 years, recurrent stroke occurred in 33 (7.4%), any vascular events in 71 (15.8%), and death in 276 (61.6%). VBC was associated with a higher risk of recurrent stroke (hazard ratio, HR 3.13, 95% confidence interval (CI 1.35–7.20)) and vascular events (HR 2.05, 95% CI 1.21–3.47). Advanced age, male gender, and ischemic stroke involving the entire anterior circulation raised the likelihood for death. We conclude that the presence of VBC in patients with ischemic stroke is a short- and long-term prognostic factor for stroke recurrence and subsequent manifestation of acute vascular disease. Further understanding of the pathophysiology of VBC is warranted.

Background: Patients who had stroke recurrence after the first stroke have a high risk of disability as well as high rates of morbidity and mortality. Incidence of stroke recurrence can be prevented by controlling risk factors and secondary prevention among post stroke patient, and also tent of the duration of the occurrence of recurrent stroke after the first attack. Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine the characteristics and stroke recurrence periods of post stroke patients.Methods: Cross sectional study design was used in this study. Total 73 recurrent stroke patients age 18-60 years old were selected using consecutive sampling technique. This study was conducted on patients during their follow up in the outpatient department of unit neurology, Margono Soekardjo Purwokerto Hospital during November-December 2015. The characteristics of the recurrent stroke patients include sex, age, education, occupation, and income. This study also describes type of stroke and duration of illness. The periods of recurrent stroke patients divided in to three time periods (≤ 6-month, 7-12 month, >12 month). Results: 73 recurrent stroke patients showed 56% were female, age group 39-60 years old was 97,5%, 60,3% have low education (below senior high school), 64,7% work as public and private employees. Income of respondents were low income 53,4%. Ischemic stroke was the majority (87,7%), no history family of stroke 64,4%, 1-5 years duration of illness and periods of stroke recurrence >12 month was 45,20%.Conclusion:  Ischemic stroke is the biggest case of recurrent stroke, so that we need to emphasize the importance of secondary prevention including medication and treatment.
