Three percent were treated with thrombectomy and 11.1% with thrombolysis. The numbers were small but those with the lowest percentage of arrival < 3 h, and of reperfusion treatment, all had the longest distances to the first hospital. 26.1 and 17.9% in two municipalities had an unknown time window from start of symptoms. A majority of the population would have shorter distances to thrombectomy centers outside Sweden.ConclusionOur data shows a higher incidence of ischemic stroke in the study area in the rural northern Sweden. Persons with stroke in this area are unlikely to receive acute care in accordance with the Swedish national stroke guidelines.]]> https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fstro.2026.1810711 https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fstro.2026.1810711 2026-06-29T00:00:00Z Original Research Trine Apostolaki-HanssonChristine KremerAmir HillalCheryl CarcelTeresa UllbergBo NorrvingJesper Petersson https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fstro.2026.1835562 https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fstro.2026.1835562 2026-06-29T00:00:00Z Brief Research Report Robert N.

Individual, online, semi-structured interviews explored the impact of stroke on nutrition, perceptions of nutritional care received, and suggested improvements. Interviews were transcribed and analyzed using reflexive thematic analysis within a critical realist framework.ResultsFour themes were generated from the data: (1) “overlooked stroke-specific and co-morbid challenges,” recognizing the clinical complexity of post-stroke nutrition (2) “the case for personalized, context-sensitive nutrition,” highlighting the importance of personalized nutrition and consideration of cultural factors (3) “preparedness for discharge home,” which recognizes the importance of the multidisciplinary team in preparing stroke survivors and carers for returning home, (4) “a lack of nutritional information and support,” articulating a strong desire for nutritional information and lack of consistent dietetic support after discharge.ConclusionFindings highlight the importance of preparing stroke survivors and carers effectively prior to discharge through improved access to personalized, culturally sensitive nutrition information, and more consistent dietetic support. Six recommendations are made for improved nutritional care across the stroke pathway. Strategies are needed to identify and address unmet need in relation to post-stroke nutrition and support recovery of stroke survivors.]]> https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fstro.2026.1783830 https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fstro.2026.1783830 2026-04-28T00:00:00Z Original Research Marla Gallo-GuerreroWilfor Aguirre-QuispeCamila Nicole Gallo-LazarteSofía Stefanie Sanchez-BoluarteAntero Peralta-MestasLiliana E.

All patients received reperfusion therapy (intravenous thrombolysis, EVT, or both). Collateral status on baseline single-phase CTA was graded using the Tan scale (0–3); no patients had grade 3. The primary outcome was 90-day modified Rankin Scale (mRS); secondary outcome was NIHSS at discharge.ResultsFifty-four patients met inclusion criteria (Tan 0: n = 24; Tan 1: n = 14; Tan 2: n = 16). Baseline NIHSS, ASPECTS, and core volume were similar across groups. Patients without collaterals (Tan 0) had worse 90-day outcomes (median mRS 4 [IQR 3–6]) compared with those with Tan 1 (2 [IQR 1–3]) or Tan 2 (1 [IQR 1–2]) collaterals (both p < 0.001), whereas Tan 1 and Tan 2 did not differ significantly (p = 0.27). NIHSS at discharge showed a similar gradient. In proportional-odds logistic regression, each one-grade increase in collateral status was associated with lower odds of worse 90-day mRS (adjusted per-grade OR 0.32; 95% CI 0.15–0.68; p = 0.003).ConclusionIn early-treated large-core AIS, even simple CTA-based collateral assessment strongly predicts recovery. Patients with absent collaterals follow a distinctly poorer trajectory, while those with any collateral filling behave more favorably. Incorporating collateral status into routine evaluation may improve prognostic accuracy and support treatment decisions in this challenging subgroup.]]> https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fstro.2026.1805422 https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fstro.2026.1805422 2026-04-13T00:00:00Z Clinical Trial Shweta Jain VermaBhavya NandaParamdeep KaurArya Devi K.

Additionally, 75.5% of hospitals ordered MRIs for these cases in the acute setting.ConclusionA coordinated, systems-level approach to wake-up stroke care that integrates a standardized protocol may be valuable in promoting workflow processes.]]>
