Cost-utility analysis of mechanical thrombectomy between 6 and 24 hours in acute ischemic stroke
Recently, two randomized controlled trials demonstrated the benefit of mechanical thrombectomy performed between 6 and 24 hours in acute ischemic stroke. The current economic evidence is supporting the intervention only within 6 hours, but extended thrombectomy treatment times may result in better long-term outcomes for a larger cohort of patients.
I’m Carmen Lahiff-Jenkins Managing Editor of the International Journal of Stroke and I spoke to Dr. Elena Pizzo from the Department of Applied Health Research, University College London, submitting author of the manuscript ‘Cost-utility analysis of mechanical thrombectomy between 6 and 24 hours in acute ischemic stroke‘

Cerebral microbleeds: beyond the macroscope
Deciphering the biological mechanisms leading to, or following microbleeds would enable us to address a key question: do microbleeds arise and impact the surrounding parenchyma like a miniature version of intracerebral haemorrhages or do they represent a different kind of injury? Carmen Lahiff-Jenkins, Managing Editor of the International Journal of Stroke spoke to Dr Vincent Berezowski from the Department of medical Pharmacology, Lille France, submitting author of the review article Cerebral microbleeds: beyond the macroscope whose group analysis supports the need for a convergent effort from clinicians and basic scientists to go beyond the current ‘macro’ view and disclose the cellular and molecular insights of cerebral haemorrhagic microlesions.

Excess stroke incidence in young Aboriginal people in South Australia: pooled results from two population-based studies.
Retrospective data indicate increased stroke incidence in Aboriginal/Torres Strait Islander (Indigenous) Australians, possibly with poorer outcomes.
Carmen Lahiff-Jenkins, Managing Editor of the International Journal of Stroke and spoke to Dr Anna Balabanski from the Alfred Hospital and Monash University, corresponding author for the article Excess stroke incidence in young Aboriginal people in South Australia: pooled results from two population-based studies, this article presents the first prospective population-based stroke incidence study in Indigenous Australians.

Infection is a common complication after stroke, affecting between 15% and 30% of patients. The predictors for post-stroke infection can be divided into three categories: clinical factors, anatomical (stroke related) factors and immunological factors. The relation between the occurrence of a post-stroke infection and functional outcome remained subject of debate, but it seems likely that the occurrence of these infections have a causal relation with poor functional outcome and mortality.
It has now become clear that, despite the finding that overall infections are reduced, preventive antibiotic therapy in the acute phase of stroke does neither improve functional outcome, nor decrease mortality rates.
Carmen Lahiff-Jenkins, Managing Editor of the International Journal of Stroke spoke to Dr Jan-Dirk Vermeij from the Department of Neurology, Academic Medical Center, Amsterdam and submitting author of the paper Post-stroke infections and preventive antibiotics in stroke: update of clinical evidence.

Intra-arterial treatment of acute ischemic stroke requires changes to acute stroke services since most hospitals do not have on-site intra-arterial treatment facilities.
I’m Carmen Lahiff-Jenkins, Managing Editor of the International Journal of Stroke and I spoke to Dr Alfonso Ciccone director of the department of neuroscience at the hospital Mantova, Italy who explained to us how they conducted research to identify models for delivery of intra-arterial treatment and to compare process performance and clinical and radiological outcomes effectiveness of the different models.
You’ve been listening to a podcast interview with Dr Alfonso Ciccone from the Azienda Socio Sanitaria Territoriale di Mantova, Italy author of the recently published article Systematic Review Of Organizational Models For Intra-Arterial Treatment Of Acute Ischemic Stroke in the International Journal of Stroke.

To prevent recurrent venous thrombotic events after acute cerebral venous or dural sinus thrombosis, guidelines recommend long-term oral anticoagulation with vitamin K antagonists. Non-vitamin K oral anticoagulant experience in cerebral venous or dural sinus thrombosis is limited to case reports and series.

People with stroke sit for long periods each day, which may compromise blood glucose control and increase risk of recurrent stroke. Studies in other populations have found regular activity breaks have a significant acute positive effect on glucose metabolism. We examined the effects of breaking up uninterrupted sitting with short, regular activity breaks in people with stroke on post-prandial plasma glucose and insulin.
The International Journal of Stroke first published the BUST-Stroke: Breaking Up Sitting Time after Stroke protocol paper in 2016, and are very pleased to publish the results and a further paper on frequent, short bouts of light-intensity exercises while standing and the decreases of systolic blood pressure.
Carmen Lahiff-Jenkins, Managing Editor of the International Journal of Stroke had the opportunity to speak to Dr Coralie English from the John Hunter Hospital, Newcastle Australia, who is the lead investigator for BUST-Stroke.

Sedentary behaviour after stroke: a new target for therapeutic intervention
Over the last 10 years evidence has emerged that too much sedentary time (e.g. time spent sitting down) has adverse effects on health, including an increased risk of cardiovascular disease incidence and mortality. A considerable amount of media attention has been given to the topic. The current UK activity guidelines recommend that all adults should minimise the amount of time spent being sedentary for extended periods. How best to minimise sedentary behaviour is a focus of ongoing research.
I’m Carmen Lahiff-Jenkins, Managing Editor of the International Journal of Stroke and I spoke to Dr Sarah Morton lead author of the opinion piece Sedentary behaviour after stroke: a new target for therapeutic intervention.

In patients with mild ischemic stroke, small but eloquent infarcts may have devastating effects, particularly on health-related quality of life. Carmen Lahiff-Jenkins, Managing Editor of the International Journal of Stroke spoke to Dr Chen Lin from Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, Chicago Illinois in the US, who was lead author for the article ‘Infarct location is associated with quality of life after mild ischemic stroke’, recently published in IJS.
This study looks at the association between acute infarct location and 3-month health- related quality of life in patients with mild ischemic stroke.

A structural MRI measure of combined neurovascular and neurodegenerative burden may be useful as these features often coexist in older people, stroke and dementia. Carmen Lahiff-Jenkins, Managing Editor of the International Journal of Stroke spoke to Dr David Dickie from the University of Glasgow lead author of 'The Brain Health Index: Towards a combined measure of neurovascular and neurodegenerative structural brain injury'. The author aimed to develop a new automated approach for quantifying visible brain injury from small vessel disease and brain atrophy in a single measure, the Brain Health Index.
