Journal ArticleDOI
Information provision for stroke patients and their caregivers
TL;DR: There is evidence that information improves patient and carer knowledge of stroke, aspects of patient satisfaction, and reduces patient depression scores, and there is some evidence that strategies that actively involve patients and carers have a greater effect on patient mood.

Pathogenesis of acute stroke and the role of inflammasomes
David Y. Fann,Seung-Yoon Lee,Silvia Manzanero,Prasad Chunduri,Christopher G. Sobey,Thiruma V. Arumugam,Thiruma V. Arumugam +6 more
TL;DR: The molecular structure, cellular signaling pathways and current evidence for inflammasome activation following cerebral ischemia, and the potential for future treatments for stroke that may involve targeting inflammaome formation or its products in the ischemic brain are described.

Powered robotic exoskeletons in post-stroke rehabilitation of gait: a scoping review
TL;DR: Clinical trials demonstrate that powered robotic exoskeletons can be used safely as a gait training intervention for stroke and suggest that sub-acute patients may experience added benefit from exoskeleton-based gaitTraining.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stroke, Vascular Dementia, and Alzheimer’s Disease: Molecular Links
TL;DR: The latest research findings on stroke are summarized, including causal factors and molecular links between stroke and vascular disease/Alzheimer's disease and most strokes can be prevented and/or controlled through pharmacological or surgical interventions and lifestyle changes.

The global burden of disease: a comprehensive assessment of mortality and disability from diseases injuries and risk factors in 1990 and projected to 2020.
TL;DR: This is the first in a planned series of 10 volumes that will attempt to "summarize epidemiological knowledge about all major conditions and most risk factors" and use historical trends in main determinants to project mortality and disease burden forward to 2020.

TL;DR: The findings suggest that ten risk factors are associated with 90% of the risk of stroke, and targeted interventions that reduce blood pressure and smoking, and promote physical activity and a healthy diet, could substantially reduce the burden of stroke.

Seth Berkley,Jose Luis Bobadilla,Robert Hecht,Kenneth Hill,Dean T. Jamison,Christopher J L Murray,Philip Musgrove,Helen Saxenian,Jee-Peng Tan +8 more
TL;DR: This report examines the controversial questions surrounding health care and health policy and advocates a threefold approach to health policy for governments in developing countries and in the formerly socialist countries, based in large part on innovative research.

Worldwide stroke incidence and early case fatality reported in 56 population-based studies: a systematic review
TL;DR: A systematic review of population-based studies of the incidence and early (21 days to 1 month) case fatality of stroke is based on studies published from 1970 to 2008 as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Global burden of blood-pressure-related disease, 2001.
TL;DR: Most of the disease burden caused by high blood pressure is borne by low-income and middle-income countries, by people in middle age, and by people with prehypertension.
