The Relationship

Hypertension and diabetes mellitus are the most common risk factors of stroke.The study aimed to determine the relationship between stroke risk factors, hypertension and diabetes mellitus, with dependency of chronic stroke patients in Department of Medical Rehabilitation RSCM. The study is conducted by using the analytical observational cross-sectional study. The samples used in this study were 44 respondents selected by quota sampling method. The relationship between variabels was analyzed by bivariate test Chi-Square and multivariate analysis: Logistic Regression. Based on Chi-Square test, relationship between MSBI scoring with hypertension and diabetes mellitus as stroke risk factors, sequentiallly p = 0,122 and p = 0,002. Furthermore, Logistic Regression test suggested that hypertension and diabetes mellitus as stroke risk factors related to MSBI scoring, respectively; hypertension p = 0,076 (OR 4,076; CI95 0,861–19,297) and diabetes mellitus p = 0,007 (OR 22,690; CI95 2,332–220,722). Discussion: Diabetes mellitus is the most prominent risk factor in severe dependecy of chronic stroke patients.

The objective of this study was to assess and compare theknowledge of black patients diagnosed with hypertension, diabetes and stroke about the risk factors for stroke.  Four groups made up of 33 subjects (hypertensive, diabetic, stroke and control group) were interviewed using open-ended questions and a structured questionnaire. Qualitative coding, frequencies and proportions were used to determine their knowledge.  Groups were compared with respect to percentage knowledge using the chi-square statistic at a 0.05 level of significance.  Stress was mentioned as the most important risk factor in all groups.  Although identification of stroke risk factors was  inadequate, the diabetic group was found to be significantly better in  identifying some of the risk factors (salt - p =0,05; sugar - p = 0,001; fat - p = 0,004; moderate smoking - p = 0,05; weight - p = 0,002)

The Relationship

Background: It is currently unknown if premature atrial contractions (PACs) detected on the routine screening electrocardiogram are associated with an increased risk of ischemic stroke. Methods: We examined the association between PACs and ischemic stroke in 22,975 (mean age 64 ± 9.2; 56% women; 40% black) participants from the Reasons for Geographic and Racial Differences in Stroke study. Participants who were free of stroke at baseline were included. PACs were detected from centrally read electrocardiograms at baseline. Cox regression was used to examine the association between PACs and ischemic stroke events through March 31, 2014. Results: PACs were present in 1,687 (7.3%) participants at baseline. In a Cox regression model adjusted for stroke risk factors and potential confounders, PACs were associated with an increased risk of ischemic stroke (hazards ratio (HR) 1.34, 95% CI 1.04-1.74). The relationship was limited to non-lacunar infarcts (HR 1.42, 95% CI 1.08-1.87), and not lacunar strokes (HR 1.01, 95% CI 0.51-2.03). An interaction by sex was detected, with the association between PACs and ischemic stroke being stronger among women (HR 1.82, 95% CI 1.29-2.56) than men (HR 1.03, 95% CI 0.69-1.52; p-interaction = 0.0095). Conclusion: PACs detected on the routine electrocardiogram are associated with an increased risk for non-lacunar ischemic strokes, especially in women.

Background. Stroke is a leading cause of death and disability worldwide. According to the Iranian Ministry of Medical Health and Education, out of 100,000 stroke incidents in the country, 25,000 lead to death. Thus, identifying risk factors of stroke can help healthcare providers to establish prevention strategies. This study was conducted to investigate the prevalence of stroke risk factors and their distribution based on stroke subtypes in Sayad Shirazi Hospital, Gorgan, Northeastern Iran. Material and Methods. A retrospective hospital-based study was conducted at Sayad Shirazi Hospital in Gorgan, the only referral university hospital for stroke patients in Gorgan city. All medical records with a diagnosis of stroke were identified based on the International Classification of Diseases, Revision 10, from August 23, 2015, to August 22, 2016. A valid and reliable data gathering form was used to capture data about demographics, diagnostics, lifestyle, risk factors, and medical history. Results. Out of 375 cases, two-thirds were marked with ischemic stroke with mean ages (standard deviation) of 66.4 (14.2) for men and 64.6 (14.2) for women. The relationship between stroke subtypes and age groups (P=0.008) and hospital outcome (P=0.0001) was significant. Multiple regression analysis showed that hypertension (Exp. (B) =1.755, P=0.037), diabetes mellitus (Exp. (B) =0.532, P=0.021), and dyslipidemia (Exp. (B) =2.325, P=0.004) significantly increased the risk of ischemic stroke. Conclusion. Overall, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and dyslipidemia were the major risk factors of stroke in Gorgan. Establishment of stroke registry (population- or hospital-based) for the province is recommended.

Background: Small vessel disease (SVD) is associated with vascular cognitive impairment (VCI) but why VCI occurs in some, but not other patients, is uncertain. We determined the prevalence of, and risk factors for, VCI in a large cohort of patients with lacunar stroke. Methods: Participants with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-confirmed lacunar stroke were recruited in the multicenter DNA Lacunar 2 study and compared with healthy controls. A logistic regression model was used to determine which vascular risk factors and MRI parameters were independent predictors of VCI, assessed using the Brief Memory and Executive Test (BMET). Results: A total of 912 lacunar stroke patients and 425 controls were included, with mean ( SD) age of 64.6 (12.26) and 64.7 (12.29) years, respectively. VCI was detected in 38.8% lacunar patients and 13.4% controls. In a logistic regression model, diabetes mellitus (odds ratio (OR) = 1.98 (95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.40–2.80), p < 0.001) and higher body mass index (BMI) (OR = 1.03 (95% CI = 1.00–1.05), p = 0.029) were independently associated with increased risk of VCI, and years of full-time education with lower risk (OR = 0.92 (95% CI = 0.86–0.99), p = 0.018). When entering both lacune count and white matter hyperintensity (WMH) in the same logistic regression model, only WMH grade was significantly associated with VCI (OR = 1.46 (95% CI = 1.24–1.72), p < 0.001). Conclusion: VCI is common in lacunar stroke patients, affecting almost 40%. This prevalence suggests that it should be routinely screened for in clinical practice. Risk factors for VCI in patients with lacunar stroke include diabetes mellitus, depressive symptoms, higher BMI, and WMH severity, while education is protective.

Prospective data were collected on consecutive patients admitted to Khartoum Teaching Hospital with a diagnosis of stroke. Risk factors and clinical characteristics were assessed by neurological examination and computed tomography scan. A total of 128 patients were enrolled in the study, of whom 74 (57.8%) were men. The age (mean±standard deviation) of the patients was 53±18.5 years. Eighty-five (66.4%) and 43 (33.6%) patients had ischaemic and haemorrhagic stroke, respectively. Hypertension, diabetes mellitus, smoking, heart disease and hypercholesterolaemia were the risk factors for stroke. Thus, further studies are needed on stroke. Hypertension should be discovered early and treated effectively.

Background Recent studies reported increasing trends in hospitalization of stroke patients aged 35–64 years. Aim To examine changes in risk factor profiles among patients aged 35–64 years hospitalized with acute ischemic stroke between 2006 and 2017 in the United States. Methods We used data from the National Inpatient Sample of the Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project from 2006 through 2017. Principal ICD-9-CM/ICD-10-CM codes were used to identify acute ischemic stroke hospitalizations, and secondary codes were used to identify the presence of four major stroke risk factors: hypertension, diabetes, lipid disorders, and tobacco use. We used the relative percent change to assess the changes in the prevalence of risk profile between 2006–2007 and 2016–2017 and linear regression models to obtain the p values for the overall trends across six time periods. Results Approximately 1.5 million acute ischemic stroke hospitalizations occurred during 2006–2017. The prevalence of having all four risk factors increased from 4.1% in 2006–2007 to 9.1% in 2016–2017 (relative percent change 122.0%, p < 0.001 for trend), prevalence of any three risk factors increased from 24.5% to 33.8% (relative percent change 38.0%, p < 0.001). Prevalence of only two risk factors decreased from 36.1% to 32.7% (p < 0.001), only one risk factor decreased from 25.2% to 18.1% (p < 0.001), and absence of risk factors decreased from 10.1% to 6.2% (p < 0.001). The most prevalent triad of risk factors was hypertension, diabetes, and lipid disorders (14.3% in 2006–2007 and 19.8% in 2016–2017), and the most common dyad risk factors was hypertension and lipid disorders (12.6% in 2006–2007 and 11.9% in 2016–2017). Conclusions The prevalence of hospitalized acute ischemic stroke patients aged 35–64 years with all four or any three of four major stroke risk factors increased by 122% and 38%, while those with only one risk factor or no risk factor has declined by 28% and 39%, respectively, from 2006 to 2017. Younger adults are increasingly at higher risk for stroke from preventable and treatable risk factors. This growing public health problem will require clinicians, healthcare systems, and public health efforts to implement more effective prevention strategies among this population.

Neuromedin N

The tridecapeptide neurotensin has been implicated in the pathogenesis of cardiometabolic disease. Its stable precursor, pro-neurotensin/neuromedin N (pro-NT/NMN), has been associated with composite cardiovascular outcomes including coronary heart disease (CHD) and stroke. The exclusive association of pro-NT/NMN with ischemic stroke has not been evaluated. We conducted a prospective case-cohort study in the REasons for Geographic And Racial Differences in Stroke (REGARDS) study. From 2003 to 2007, REGARDS enrolled 30,239 white or black adults aged ⩾ 45 years. Baseline fasting pro-NT/NMN was measured by immunoassay in the analytic sample including 448 incident ischemic stroke cases and 818 random cohort sample participants. A total of 464 ischemic strokes occurred. Risk of stroke was assessed with a Cox proportional-hazards model incorporating demographic covariates and a second adding stroke risk factors. Increased pro-NT/NMN was associated with ischemic stroke in the demographic model overall (hazard ratio (HR) per standard deviation (SD) pro-NT/NMN 1.16, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.01–1.33) and in men (HR per SD pro-NT/NMN 1.25, 95% CI 1.04–1.50); HRs were attenuated in the risk factor model. Pre-existing diabetes mellitus and CHD were the largest confounders of ischemic stroke risk, each accounting for an estimated 19% of the association of pro-NT/NMN with ischemic stroke observed in the demographic model. There were no significant interactions of race or sex with pro-NT/NMN. Further research on associations of pro-NT/NMN with stroke risk factors such as diabetes mellitus is indicated.
