Summary: This study aimed to estimate the incidence of medium vessel occlusion (MeVO) through a population-based assessment. The results showed an incidence rate of 16 cases per 100,000 people per year, indicating the significant proportion of strokes caused by MeVO. Further studies and preventive measures are needed to reduce the incidence of MeVO.

Summary: The study found that minor ischemic stroke with large vessel occlusion is not uncommon, and its characteristics include severe symptom presentation, decreased consciousness, cortical signs, especially aphasia and altered item level of consciousness. Emergency arterial imaging is needed for patients suspected of acute stroke, including those with minor symptoms, due to the absence of obvious predictors of proximal occlusion.

Summary: The increasing burden of stroke in older people is associated with a greater prevalence of risk factors, severity of initial stroke, and poorer functional outcomes post-stroke among elderly patients. Discharge to home is less common in older stroke survivors, with a higher proportion requiring long-term care institutions, highlighting the need for dedicated care facilities in the future.

Summary: This study aimed to review evidence on the association between pre-existing factors and future long-term care among community-dwelling Japanese older adults. Common risk factors identified included physical function, frailty, oral condition for functional disability, and motor function, nutritional status for dementia. Consistent associations were found between premorbid risk factors and functional disability and dementia, highlighting the importance of preventive measures in long-term care planning.

Summary: Xanthine oxidoreductase (XOR) and its products are important contributors to chronic inflammation and oxidative stress. Excessive XOR activity is believed to promote inflammatory responses and the formation of atherosclerotic plaques, which are major cardiovascular risk factors. The mechanisms of XOR activity in the development and progression of cardiovascular disease (CVD), as well as the complex relationship between XOR activity and the biological effects of uric acid, reactive oxygen species, and nitric oxide, have been debated but not yet clearly elucidated. Recent advancements in measuring XOR activity in human plasma and accumulating findings on the relationship between XOR activity and CVD have shed light on this topic. In this narrative review, we summarize the current knowledge on plasma XOR activity and its association with CVD, and discuss future perspectives.

Summary: There is a significant association between weight change and disability risk in older community-dwelling Japanese adults. Sizable weight loss and weight loss are significant predictors of disability onset, while sizable weight gain is associated with severe disability. The associations between weight change and disability risk are more pronounced in the unhealthy lifestyle and lower initial normal body mass index groups.

Summary: This study evaluated the performance of e-ASPECTS software in delineating the extent of intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) on brain CT scans. The results showed that the software achieved excellent or good delineation of ICH extent in 71% of cases. However, it was more likely to over- or under-estimate the extent when ICH was more extensive, intraventricular, or extra-axial.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of endovascular treatment (EVT) in primary and EVT-induced secondary medium-vessel occlusions (MeVO). The results showed that primary MeVO had poorer outcomes in terms of complications, EVT efficacy, and the proportion of patients with a modified Rankin Scale (mRS) of 0-2 at 3 months compared to exclusive large-vessel occlusion (LVO). However, EVT-induced secondary MeVO showed similar safety and efficacy outcomes as exclusive LVO and had better outcomes in terms of mRS 0-2 compared to primary MeVO.

The study found that rural counties had significantly longer travel distances and times compared to urban counties. Counties with high and medium stroke prevalence also had higher travel times and distances compared to low stroke prevalence counties. Therefore, addressing transportation barriers and implementing tele-rehabilitation are crucial for improving access to stroke aftercare in these areas.

The results showed that serum ALP levels in ICH patients were significantly elevated and correlated with hematoma volume and Glasgow coma scale (GCS) score. High serum ALP levels may serve as a potential predictor for the severity and unfavorable prognosis of ICH.
