Grant Activity:
Using a national level multi-registry analysis to determine whether prescribed anti-platelet therapies post-stroke can modify the risk of cognitive decline or dementia
Purpose:
Stroke survivors are at risk of dementia. Blood brain barrier damage after stroke may allow drugs in the bloodstream, which can be toxic to brain cells, to enter the brain. Clopidogrel, a drug commonly used after stroke, blocks a receptor essential for brain repair. After stroke, clopidogrel may access the brain and compromise repair processes, increasing the risk of dementia. We will link use of clopidogrel to the risk of dementia after stroke, using national Swedish health registry data.
