When someone has an acute ischemic stroke, urgent, effective, simple and reliable treatments will reduce their risks of disability or dying from their brain tissue damage. The treatments used vary around the world, and a drug called cerebrolysin and its analogues are widely used in post-Soviet countries, Eastern Europe, and Central and Southeast Asia. In October 2023, the latest update of the Cochrane review was published by researchers from Cochrane Russia based at the Russian Medical Academy of Continuing Professional Education and two of the authors, Dilyara Nurkhametova and Liliya Eugenevna Ziganshina, discuss it for this podcast.

Y., Jama, H., Barker, C. M. O., Modarresi, M., Kemp-Harper, B. K., Zheng, T., Marques, F. Z., Broughton, B. R. S. Abstract: We provide evidence that stroke-induced gut breakdown results in bacteria translocation to the ischaemic mouse brain. Inhibition of sympathetic tone reduced bacterial load in the post-stroke brain and reduced functional deficits without altering cerebral apoptosis, neuroinflammation or infarct volume. These findings indicate that the activation of the sympathetic nervous system after stroke promotes gut-derived bacteria to enter to the brain, and this process worsens motor function in mice.

Ischaemic heart disease is the amongst the leading causes of death in the United Kingdom in men and women.What exactly is a heart attack?The progression of heart disease is determined by the progression of atherosclerosis (or to put it plainly, how much plaque is built up in your blood vessels). Heart attacks result from the formation of atherosclerosis, and of sclerotic plaques which are liable to block the passage of blood in the blood vessels to the heart. Try picturing a pipe that's clogged up with muck: whilst there's just a little, water can flow through but the flow of water will get weaker and weaker as the muck gets clogged and eventually, unless we clean the pipe, no water will be flowing through. If you need a visual, watch this short video by the British Heart Foundation.When this happens, without the supply of oxygen from the blood, the heart tissue will die. This is a heart attack.To read more, please visit https://www.mayanaturopathy.co.uk/naturopathy/heart-attacks-reduce-risk/

Ischaemic stroke is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality. The World Health Organization defines stroke as “a clinical syndrome consisting of rapidly developing clinical signs of focal (or global) disturbance of cerebral function, lasting more than 24 hours or leading to death, with no apparent cause other than that of vascular origin”. David Wang, Professor of Neurology, Barrow Neurological Institute, Phoenix, Arizona, gives us a clinical overview of the condition.

In 2017, for the first time, stroke, became the second most common cause of both death and disability in the world.  In New Zealand (NZ) the situation is even more dire as was previously shown through a series of population-based Auckland Regional Community Stroke Studies (ARCOS) population-based studies. The number of stroke survivors have tripled over the last three decades, and there are also significant ethnic disparities in stroke, with the risk of stroke in Māori and Pacific people two to three times greater than in NZ Europeans. In 2011-2012, the age-adjusted incidence of stroke in NZ was the fourth highest in high-income countries.  Carmen Lahiff-Jenkins Managing Editor of the International journal of Stroke spoke to Professor Valery Feigin from the National Institute for Stroke and Applied Neurosciences, Auckland University of Technology, Auckland, New Zealand he is also the submitting author for the article Measuring stroke and transient ischaemic attack burden in New Zealand: protocol for the fifth Auckland Regional Community Stroke Study (ARCOS V) now online in the International Journal of Stroke.    To become a member please click here   Music is Kool Kats by Kevin McCloud

Stroke thrombolysis - why are we still arguing? Summary by Lachlan Donaldson The debate regarding the efficacy of thrombolysis grumbles on… How is it that two different groups (i.e. mostly ED doctors and neurologists) can look at the same set of trials and come to fundamentally different conclusions? To examine this, these authors have attempted to perform an unbiased meta-analysis and systematic appraisal of the evidence supporting the use of thrombolysis in ischaemic stroke (paper available here). Consistent with other meta-analyses, the authors found a moderately increased probability of good functional outcome (OR 1.14) alongside a markedly increased risk of ICH (OR 4.28). However, as discussed, this debate is likely to be driven by the quality of the trials that populate this meta-analysis. For instance, of the 16 studies that nominated a specific primary outcome, only 2 studies reported a significant treatment effect in favour of thrombolysis as their primary outcome- the NINDS trial and ECASS III. Both of these studies have reported concerns baseline imbalance. Buried in the Supplementary Appendix is also the 'influence analysis' which shows the significant influence of the NINDS and IST-3 trial, both of which have significant methodological limitations.  Transparently analysing this controversial data was not without challenge – most trialists and drug companies were reluctant to share trial data without contracts and editorial influence (notwithstanding stated commitments to data-sharing). Once completed, most journals with broad readership rejected the paper on the basis that there was no ongoing debate; their view was that that the evidence was sound and that replication studies were not warranted.   9vhphp4z

The magic of remote ischaemic preconditioning

2016 is the 30th anniversary of ischaemic preconditioning. Remote ischaemic preconditioning is the magical offspring of ischaemic preconditioning and refers to the phenomenon whereby brief periods of ischaemia in one organ can protect other organs from subsequent prolonged ischaemic insults. In theory, remote ischaemic preconditioning can be induced by temporarily interrupting the blood supply to an extremity using a blood pressure cuff. In experimental models this technique is effective in reducing ischaemia / reperfusion injury when applied after ischaemia but before reperfusion. As a result the technique has a wide range of potential clinical implications including: 1. Heart surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass 2. Planned percutaneous coronary interventions 3. Acute myocardial infarction 4. CBA being treated with lysis or clot retrieval 5. Carotid endarterectomy surgery 6. Hypoxic ischaemic encephalopathy 7. Organ transplantation 8. abdominal aortic aneurysm surgery While this technique is not yet ready for clinical application, it remains an exciting potential therapeutic modality for the future.

The World Health Organization lists COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) as the #3 killer worldwide,lower respiratory infections at #4, and cancer of trachea, bronchus, lung collectively at #5 cause of deaths worldwide. That is, the #3, #4, and #5 causes of human death around the planet all have to do with the respiratory tract. (Ischaemic heart disease and stroke are #1 and #2) If you put these three sets of symptoms together - that is, COPD, lower respiratory infections, and cancer of the trachea, bronchus and lung - and then you add in the several more respiratory symptoms that aren't listed in these three categories ...well, respiratory illness is clearly the number one killer on the planet. What's not clear is why the particular symptoms form, why respiratory illness affects different people differently in different parts of the world ...or what to do about respiratory illness. What most health practitioners don’t know (because it's a very new discovery), is that health symptoms that affect the respiratory system follow the laws of nature. Strictly. This realization opens up a whole new strategy for healing and then maintaining healthy breathing for the rest of your life. If you happen to know how and why nature creates these symptoms …a whole new strategy for healing and for maintaining healthy breathing throughout your life will open up for you. In Episode 6 of the Mind Over Symptom Podcast, "Mind Over Respiratory Illness," you get a framework for understanding the predictable, structured, and logical process that underlies every symptom from a tickle in your throat all the way to lung cancer.

Background: Acute non-traumatic focal subarachnoid haemorrhage (fSAH) is a rare transient ischaemic attack (TIA)-mimic. MRI is considered to be indispensable by some authors in order to avoid misdiagnosis, and subsequent improper therapy. We therefore evaluated the role of CT and MRI in the diagnosis of fSAH patients by comparing our cases to those from the literature. Methods: From 01/2010 to 12/2012 we retrospectively identified seven patients with transient neurological episodes due to fSAH, who had received unenhanced thin-sliced multiplanar CT and subsequent MRI within 3 days on a 1.5 T scanner. MRI protocol included at least fast-field-echo (FFE), diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), T2-weighted fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) and time-of-flight (TOF) MRA sequences. By using MRI as gold-standard, we re-evaluated images and data from recent publications regarding the sensitivity to detect fSAH in unenhanced CT. Results: fSAH was detected by CT and by FFE and FLAIR on MRI in all of our own cases. However, DWI and T2w-spinecho sequences revealed fSAH in 3 of 7 and 4 of 6 cases respectively. Vascular imaging was negative in all cases. FFE-MRI revealed additional multiple microbleeds and superficial siderosis in 4 of 7 patients and 5 of 7 patients respectively. Including data from recently published literature CT scans delivered positive results for fSAH in 95 of 100 cases (95%), whereas MRI was positive for fSAH in 69 of 69 cases (100%). Conclusions: Thin-sliced unenhanced CT is a valuable emergency diagnostic tool to rule out intracranial haemorrhage including fSAH in patients with acute transient neurological episodes if immediate MRI is not available. However, MRI work-up is crucial and mandatorily has to be completed within the next 24-72 hours.

Changes in excitability and accommodation of human motor axons following brief periods of ischaemia.

1. The mechanism of post-ischaemic ectopic impulse generation in nerve is not known, and previous measurements of excitability changes in human motor axons have appeared to conflict. We have used automatic threshold tracking and different stimulus-response combinations to follow the effects on excitability of brief (5-10 min) periods of ischaemia, too short to induce motor fasciculations. Excitability changes have been compared at different sites in axons innervating hand, arm and foot muscles. 2. Threshold was determined as the percutaneous stimulus current required to excite a single motor unit, or to evoke a constant multiunit response, after rectifying and integrating the electromyogram (EMG). Three different waveforms of stimulus current were compared: short (less than or equal to 2 ms) pulses, long (100-200 ms) pulses to measure rheobase, and 100 ms current ramps. We also measured accommodation by recording the effects of subthreshold depolarizing currents on excitability. 3. Ischaemic and post-ischaemic excitability changes were greatest in the proximal parts of the longest motor axons, and greater if the sphygmomanometer cuff was inflated over, rather than proximal to, the stimulating site. 4. Using integrated EMG responses from abductor digiti minimi, the ulnar nerve stimulated above the elbow became rapidly much less excitable after ischaemia when tested with short pulses, but more excitable when tested with current ramps. The rheobase rose briefly, but then fell, often below resting level, always staying below the pulse and ramp thresholds. 5. The latency of the response to a rheobasic stimulus altered in parallel with the threshold to short current pulses, and increased dramatically after ischaemia. This latency increase was associated with a prolonged phase of 'negative accommodation', i.e. the continued increase in excitability to a maintained subthreshold depolarizing current. 6. Changes in excitability and accommodation similar to those occurring after ischaemia were recorded following high frequency trains of stimuli. They were attributed primarily to hyperpolarization by the electrogenic sodium pump, since comparable changes could be induced by passing a steady hyperpolarizing current through the stimulating electrode. 7. Threshold and latency recordings from single motor units during and after ischaemia resembled in most respects the multiunit responses, but single unit rheobase did not show a post-ischaemic fall below the resting level. Repetitive firing contributed to the low multiunit thresholds recorded with long current pulses during the post-ischaemic period. 8. We conclude that human motor nerves become simultaneously both more and less excitable than normal after 10 min of ischaemia, depending on the choice of stimulus and response.
