Popis: | Background: Cannabis is one of the most extensively cultivated illicit drugs internationally. Its legalization and decriminalization in some states of the U.S. has increased its usage. Despite its widespread use, cannabinoid-related cerebrovascular disease is underreported. There are contradicting studies regarding the risk of Acute Ischemic Stroke (AIS) and its outcomes among cannabis users. Hypothesis: Our analysis estimates concurrent Cannabis Usage Disorder (CUD) trends among AIS patients and its impact on AIS outcomes. Methods: Study cohort was derived from the Nationwide Inpatient Sample (NIS) for the years 2007-2018. Hospitalizations due to AIS in the age group of 18-49 were identified using previously validated ICD-9-CM/ICD-10-CM codes. Cochran Armitage trend test and multivariable survey logistic regression modeling were then utilized to analyze temporal trends, predictors, and outcomes. Results: Out of a total 406,987 hospitalizations due to AIS from 2007-2018, 19,614 (4.82%) had concurrent CUD. AIS hospitalizations with concurrent CUD have increased from 3.3% in 2007 to 6.6% in 2018 with a yearly increase of 10% (OR 1.1; 95%CI 1.1-1.1; p Conclusion: Our results show that between 2007 and 2018, hospitalizations due to AIS with concurrent CUD has doubled. This association is significantly higher among 18-34 age group, males, African American, Western US and with concomitant psychiatric disorders. However, CUD was not associated with poor outcomes in AIS. Our study highlights underlying demographic trends and emphasizes the need for further studies to identify the causal association of cannabis use and AIS. |
