    Abstract Background: Venous thromboembolic events, including deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE), are frequent complications in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Various prophylactic strategies have been employed to mitigate this risk, such as heparin, intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC), and graduated compression stockings (GCS). The optimal thromboembolic prophylaxis approach remains uncertain due to the lack of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing all interventions.
    Aims: We conducted a network meta-analysis and meta-analysis to systematically review and synthesize evidence from RCTs and non-randomized studies on the efficacy and safety of thromboembolic prophylaxis strategies in hospitalized ICH patients.
    Summary of findings: Our study followed a registered protocol (PROSPERO CRD42023489217) and Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines incorporating the extension for network meta-analyses. Search for eligible studies was performed up to December 2023. We considered the occurrence of DVT, PE, hematoma expansion (HE), and all-cause mortality as outcome measures. A total of 16 studies, including 7 RCTs and 9 non-randomized studies, were included in the analysis. Network meta-analysis revealed that IPC demonstrated the highest efficacy in reducing DVT incidence (odds ratios (OR) 0.30, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.08-1.16), particularly considering only RCTs (OR 0.33, 95% CI 0.16-0.67). GCS showed the highest safety profile for HE (OR 0.67, 95% CI 0.14-3.13), but without efficacy. Chemoprophylaxis did not reduce the risk of PE events (OR 1.10, 95% CI 0.17-7.19) with a higher occurrence of HE (OR 1.33, 95% CI 0.60-2.96), but the differences were not significant.
    Conclusion: Our study supports the use of IPC as the primary thromboembolic prophylaxis measure in ICH patients. Further research, including head-to-head RCTs, is needed to strengthen the evidence base and optimize clinical decision-making for thromboembolic prophylaxis in this vulnerable patient population.

    Abstract Background and aim: Despite progress made over the last 30 years, stroke is still a leading cause of disability and mortality; likewise, its burden is expected to increase over the next decades, due to population growth and aging. The development of drugs with better safety-efficacy profiles as well as strategies able to improve ischemic stroke management from the pre-hospital setting is needed.
    Summary: The pathophysiology of ischemic stroke involves multiple pathways resulting in cerebral artery obstruction and brain tissue ischemia. To date, the only approved drug for acute ischemic stroke is intravenous thrombolytic alteplase. Intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) can be administered alone or in combination with endovascular treatment (EVT) with mechanical thrombectomy, in case of large vessel occlusion and generally within 6 h from symptoms onset. The risk of potential bleeding complications, especially symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage, is one of the reasons for the reluctance to administer IVT. Tenecteplase is a promising alternative fibrinolytic agent, having a better safety profile than alteplase. Moreover, recent evidences have allowed an extension of the IVT ± EVT time window for patients with unknown onset time and for those with a known onset time thanks to the new "tissue-window" approach guided by advanced neuroimaging techniques, which also helps in collateral circulation estimation. Regarding primary-secondary prevention, researchers are focused on improving the efficacy of antithrombotic drugs with a "hemostasis-sparing" approach. Neuroprotective agents are also under development, particularly stem cells. The COVID-19 pandemic has critically stressed global healthcare systems, with collateral damage resulting in access delivery of only emergency care, such as ischemic stroke. Regarding telemedicine, it has had a minor role in acute stroke management, and with the onset of COVID-19, this role will most likely be adopted to increase access and delivery in stroke assessment, but also in the follow-up.

    Abstract Cancer patients frequently have concomitant cerebrovascular diseases, which significantly worsen their prognosis. Prospective studies validating intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) safety profile in patients with acute ischemic stroke and active cancer are still lacking. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate IVT's efficacy and safety profile in acute ischemic stroke patients with comorbid active cancer. We included in a meta-analysis all relevant published studies, including patients with acute ischemic stroke with or without active cancer and receiving IVT, according to recommendations for IVT treatment for acute ischemic stroke. The primary outcomes were: any intracerebral hemorrhage, all-cause mortality, and good functional outcome reported as modified Rankin Scale (mRS) ≤ 2 at the end of the scheduled follow-up period. We included 11 studies in the meta-analysis. IVT was not associated with a significant increase in the incidence of intracerebral hemorrhage (OR 1.35; 95% CI 0.85-2.14; I

    Abstract Introduction: Stroke is a leading cause of disability and mortality and its burden expected to increase. The only approved drug for acute ischemic stroke (IS) is the intravenous thrombolytic alteplase. The risk of bleeding complications is one of the reasons for the undertreatment of eligible patients. Numerous drugs are currently being developed to improve safety-efficacy.
    Areas covered: We reviewed literature from 1 January 2000, to 15 January 2022 for the development and testing of novel drugs with the aim of targeting treatment at prevention of ischemic stroke: PubMed, MEDLINE, Google Scholar, and ClinicalTrial.gov.
    Expert opinion: The pathophysiology of IS involves multiple pathways causing cerebral artery obstruction and brain tissue ischemia. Data suggest that tenecteplase is a promising fibrinolytic agent with a superior efficacy-safety profile, compared to alteplase. Current guidelines consider a short-term cycle of mannitol or hypertonic saline to be advisable in patients with space-occupying hemispheric infarction. Regarding primary and secondary prevention, research is primarily focused on identifying mechanisms to improve the safety-efficacy profile using a 'hemostasis-sparing' approach. Further evaluation on those agents that have shown promise for their risk/benefit profiles, would benefit greatly a neurologist's capacity to successfully prevent and treat IS patients.
