      June 3, 2022

      Executive Page Dear EAN members, dear friends, It is my pleasure to give you an update on behalf of the EAN Scientific Committee following a busy year since my appointment as chair. It has been a privilege to be so deeply involved in the scientific activities of the EAN and to work closely with an amazing community of people who are so dedicated to the advancement of neurology. One of the strongest threads within that community is the EAN’s group of Scientific Panels, which are often referred to as the organisation’s ‘scientific backbone’. The panels have a hand in everything the EAN does from a scientific point of view, including coordinating clinical research, disseminating good practice, assisting in planning the EAN annual congress, supporting the EAN’s educational efforts, and producing guidelines that assist neurologists in daily practice. All of this work requires a considerable amount of oversight, and this is why each panel is run by its own Management Group, elected by the panel members. Being a part of one of these Management Groups (PDF) is an opportunity to play a direct part in determining the direction of scientific progress within Europe, and I am excited to say that the call for applications to stand for election will be announced in September. All panel members and EAN individual members are eligible to apply to be candidates, with the vote being held among the existing panel members in autumn. I would like to urge every neurologist with a passion for the scientific future of their special area of interest to consider standing for election to the relevant Management Group and to look out for the call for applications later this month. I can tell you from personal experience that fulfilling a role such as this within the structure of the EAN is a fascinating and extremely rewarding experience. The chance to take on such a unique leadership position should not be missed! The most satisfying aspect of being involved in the EAN’s organisational structure is surely seeing all the hard work and planning come to fruition when a small idea evolves into a newly launched project. One such example is the 1st EAN Science School, taking place in Salzburg next March. The idea of the Science School is to offer early career neurologists with an interest in translational research a new avenue for learning about basic pathomechanisms of neurological disorders. Application for this very first edition, on ‘Pathophysiology of disorders of the nervous system’, closed last week and we have been delighted with the level of interest. It was a pleasure to be part of the task force in charge of planning this new project and I look forward to seeing it officially transferred to the hands of the Scientific Committee after a successful event and evaluation in spring. Of our ongoing activities, one of the most significant is the EAN Neuro-covid Registry, which aims to collate epidemiological data on neurological manifestations in patients with COVID-19 infection reported by neurologists in outpatient services, emergency rooms, and hospital departments. We currently have 1,542 patients entered in the database, from 35 centres across 23 countries. So far, 29 patients have been followed for 12 months and 387 have completed the 6-months follow up. This is a decent start, but I would like to strongly encourage EAN members and their institutions to get involved and contribute cases to what will become an invaluable resource for neurologists and clinicians to improve care for Covid-19 patients. Finally, I would like share a word on a forthcoming collaboration between EAN and the Human Brain Project in December, that I think will interest a lot of EAN members. The EAN-EBRAINS joint workshop on ‘The future of medical data sharing in clinical neurosciences’ will be a three-day virtual event that aims to discuss issues and challenges associated with data sharing in Europe, from ethics to data safety and privacy, including those specific to data federation, such as the development and validation of federated algorithms. The whole workshop is completely free of charge and registration is open until 25 November, so please check out the details and sign up! I wish you all a healthy and pleasant autumn and I look forward to updating you again. Best wishes Thomas Berger Chair of the EAN Scientific Committee

      Executive Page Dear EAN members, dear friends, It is my pleasure to give you an update on behalf of the EAN Scientific Committee following a busy year since my appointment as chair. It has been a privilege to be so deeply involved in the scientific activities of the EAN and to work closely with an amazing community of people who are so dedicated to the advancement of neurology. One of the strongest threads within that community is the EAN’s group of Scientific Panels, which are often referred to as the organisation’s ‘scientific backbone’. The panels have a hand in everything the EAN does from a scientific point of view, including coordinating clinical research, disseminating good practice, assisting in planning the EAN annual congress, supporting the EAN’s educational efforts, and producing guidelines that assist neurologists in daily practice. All of this work requires a considerable amount of oversight, and this is why each panel is run by its own Management Group, elected by the panel members. Being a part of one of these Management Groups (PDF) is an opportunity to play a direct part in determining the direction of scientific progress within Europe, and I am excited to say that the call for applications to stand for election will be announced in September. All panel members and EAN individual members are eligible to apply to be candidates, with the vote being held among the existing panel members in autumn. I would like to urge every neurologist with a passion for the scientific future of their special area of interest to consider standing for election to the relevant Management Group and to look out for the call for applications later this month. I can tell you from personal experience that fulfilling a role such as this within the structure of the EAN is a fascinating and extremely rewarding experience. The chance to take on such a unique leadership position should not be missed! The most satisfying aspect of being involved in the EAN’s organisational structure is surely seeing all the hard work and planning come to fruition when a small idea evolves into a newly launched project. One such example is the 1st EAN Science School, taking place in Salzburg next March. The idea of the Science School is to offer early career neurologists with an interest in translational research a new avenue for learning about basic pathomechanisms of neurological disorders. Application for this very first edition, on ‘Pathophysiology of disorders of the nervous system’, closed last week and we have been delighted with the level of interest. It was a pleasure to be part of the task force in charge of planning this new project and I look forward to seeing it officially transferred to the hands of the Scientific Committee after a successful event and evaluation in spring.

We currently have 1,542 patients entered in the database, from 35 centres across 23 countries. So far, 29 patients have been followed for 12 months and 387 have completed the 6-months follow up. This is a decent start, but I would like to strongly encourage EAN members and their institutions to get involved and contribute cases to what will become an invaluable resource for neurologists and clinicians to improve care for Covid-19 patients. Finally, I would like share a word on a forthcoming collaboration between EAN and the Human Brain Project in December, that I think will interest a lot of EAN members. The EAN-EBRAINS joint workshop on ‘The future of medical data sharing in clinical neurosciences’ will be a three-day virtual event that aims to discuss issues and challenges associated with data sharing in Europe, from ethics to data safety and privacy, including those specific to data federation, such as the development and validation of federated algorithms. The whole workshop is completely free of charge and registration is open until 25 November, so please check out the details and sign up! I wish you all a healthy and pleasant autumn and I look forward to updating you again. Best wishes Thomas Berger Chair of the EAN Scientific Committee

World Stroke day – Reducing strokes may prevent the development of dementia

December 1, 2015

A worldwide call to action, spearheaded by Western University researcher Dr. Vladimir Hachinski, is calling for more attention to the link between reducing strokes and preventing dementia.
Approximately 747,000 Canadians live with dementia, including Alzheimer’s diseases, which represents 14.9 per cent of Canadians 65 and older. If no action is taken, that number is expected to increase to 1.4 million Canadians by 2031. By 2040, the cost of dementia could cost the health care system $293 billion a year.
Dr. Hachinski, distinguished university professor at Western’s Schulich School of Medicine & Dentistry, in collaboration with 15 international researchers, has led the development of the Stroke and Potentially Preventable Dementias Proclamation, on behalf of the World Stroke Organization, to mark World Stroke Day on October 29, 2015. Watch the video at https://youtu.be/RWpZLtRTMKQ
The proclamation outlines key steps to preventing and reducing strokes and dementia internationally, in developed countries, such as Canada, as well as developing nations without the health resources to deal with the rising incidence of stroke and dementia. With an aging global population, implementing reduction strategies can reduce millions of deaths and disabilities over the next decade, and reduce the significant economic burden.
Published in the November issue of Stroke and the International Journal of Stroke, the proclamation has international support from Alzheimer’s Disease International, World Federation of Neurology, World Heart Federation, World Federation for NeuroRehabiliation, American Academy of Neurology, American Heart Association, the Alzheimer’s Association, Alzheimer Society of Canada, Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada and other regional, national and international organizations.
Read the Stroke and Potentially Preventable Dementias Proclamation http://stroke.ahajournals.org/content/46/11/3039

Commented by Valentina Arnao (ESO member) and Valeria Caso, President-elect of ESO

Valentina Arnao_ESOPr. Vladimir Hachinski has recently reminded us that one out of three of us will suffer from stroke and/or develop dementia over our lifetimes. The Professor at Western’s Schulich School of Medicine & Dentistry, in collaboration with 15 international researchers has begun his worldwide call to action for the programme entitled “The Stroke and Potentially Preventable Dementias Proclamation”, which has been published in the November 2015 issues of both Stroke and the International Journal of Stroke. The aim of this programme is to fight and prevent stroke and dementia

V Caso_ESO President elect(1). A video commemorating the World Stroke Day, featuring the distinguished Professor Hachinski, can be viewed at: https://youtu.be/RWpZLtRTMKQ. Highlights from the video remind us that there is an
important link between stroke and dementia, as all major dementias have a vascular component, including Alzheimer’s disease (AD), the foremost cause of degenerative dementia worldwide. In fact, “Silent” strokes, which are not clinically visible, occur five times as often as symptomatic strokes and may negatively affect thinking, attention, problem solving, mood, personality and ultimately lead to cognitive impairment associated dementia. As well, we are told that preventing stroke can be a key to decreasing dementia being that vascular risk factors, such as hypertension, type two diabetes and strokes are also likely to increase the burden of dementia and thus provoke premature aging (3). When AD pathology and cerebrovascular disease coexist as a mixed type of dementia, cognitive symptoms may be worse than when AD exists by itself (4). Currently, there are more than 25 million diagnosed cases of dementia worldwide, and most of these are AD cases (5).
Recent data clearly indicates that increasing tobacco use, alcohol misuse, physical inactivity, and diets high in salt, fats and/or sugar, especially in emerging countries, are causing greater incidences of stroke and heart disease and therefore our line of battle needs to be moved further eastward.
Neurologists and physicians must better focus on identifying ‘silent’ strokes, by developing transdisciplinary teams for stroke and dementia that have demonstrated to improve outcomes and quality of life. Furthermore, consideration must be given to understanding and supporting the lives of the caregivers and the families of stroke survivors.
This proclamation has international support from 19 national and International including the European Academy of Neurology, Alzheimer’s Disease International, World Federation of Neurology, World Heart Federation, World Federation for NeuroRehabiliation, American Academy of Neurology, American Heart Association, the Alzheimer’s Association, Alzheimer Society of Canada, and the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada.
The forecasted increases in the number of deaths and disabilities from stroke and dementia in the next years could be curbed, by now investing in what is already known (2). The European Stroke Organisation (ESO) is one of the supporters for the “Stroke and Potentially Preventable Dementias Proclamation” campaign as we also actively seek to eliminate stroke.
