Vitamin D and Ischemic Stroke
Introduction: stroke is the most important brain disease. Stroke leads to a reduction in bone density, altered calcium homeostasis, and an increase in hip fractures. Some recent studies show effects of vitamin D on stroke and vice versa. The purpose of this study was to determine of serum vitamin D levels in patients with acute stroke. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, we compared t...
متن کاملdysphagia in acute ischemic stroke
Introduction: Swallowing dysfunction complicates acute strokes in 25-32% of cases and directly affects patientschr('39') prognosis and recovery. Dysphagia complicates the course of acute strokes through its potential of the development of chest infection, nutritional problems, and dehydration. Dysphagia is also an independent predictor of respiratory morbidity and mortality in acute stroke. In...
متن کاملP-wave Dispersion for Predicting Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation in Acute Ischemic Stroke
BACKGROUND Detection of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) in acute ischemic stroke patients poses diagnostic challenge. The aim of this study was to predict the presence of PAF by means of 12-lead ECG in patients with acute ischemic stroke. Our hypothesis was that P-wave dispersion (P(d)) might be a useful marker in predicting PAF in patients with acute ischemic stroke. METHODS 12-lead res...
متن کاملP 149: Effect of Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa Inhibition on Acute Ischemic Stroke Injuries
Ischemic stroke accounts for about 87 percent of all cases. It occurs as a result of an obstruction within a vessel of the brain and sudden loss of blood circulation to the corresponding area resulting in the loss of brain function. It is caused by thrombotic or embolic occlusion of an artery and is more common than hemorrhagic stroke. We know that most of the injuries after an acute ischemic s...
متن کاملStroke in MELAS is a Vasogenic Edema and Not Ischemic
We read with interest the article by Almasi et al. on a 48 years old female patient with Mitochondrial Encephalomyopathy, Lactic Acidosis, And Stroke-like episodes (MELAS), diagnosed based on the clinical presentation, blood test results, and imaging and muscle biopsy findings . We have the following comments and concerns.
