Abstract
Perioperative stroke is an ischemic or hemorrhagic cerebral event during or up to 30 days after surgery. It is a feared condition due to a relatively high incidence, difficulties in timely detection, and unfavorable outcome compared to spontaneously occurring stroke. Recent preclinical data suggest that specific pathophysiological mechanisms such as aggravated neuroinflammation contribute to the detrimental impact of perioperative stroke. Conventional treatment options are limited in the perioperative setting due to difficult diagnosis and medications affecting coagulation in may cases. On the contrary, the chance to anticipate cerebrovascular events at the time of surgery may pave the way for prevention strategies. This review provides an overview on perioperative stroke incidence, related problems, and underlying pathophysiological mechanisms. Based on this analysis, we assess experimental stroke treatments including neuroprotective approaches, cell therapies, and conditioning medicine strategies regarding their potential use in perioperative stroke. Interestingly, the specific aspects of perioperative stroke might enable a more effective application of experimental treatment strategies such as classical neuroprotection whereas others including cell therapies may be of limited use. We also discuss experimental diagnostic options for perioperative stroke augmenting classical clinical and imaging stroke diagnosis. While some experimental stroke treatments may have specific advantages in perioperative stroke, the paucity of established guidelines or multicenter clinical research initiatives currently limits their thorough investigation.

Abstract
Tibia fracture (BF) enhances stroke injury and post-stroke memory dysfunction in mouse. Reduction of neuroinflammation by activation of α-7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (α-7 nAchR) reduced acute neuronal injury and sensorimotor dysfunction in mice with BF 1-day after stroke. We hypothesize that reduction of neuroinflammation by activation of α-7 nAchR improves long-term memory function of mice with BF 6-h before stroke. The mice were randomly assigned to saline, PHA-568487 (α-7 nAchR agonist) and methyllycaconitine (antagonist) treatment groups. The sensorimotor function was tested by adhesive removal and corner tests at 3 days, the memory function was tested by Y-maze test weekly for 8 weeks and novel objective recognition test at 8 weeks post-injuries. We found PHA-568487 treatment reduced, methyllycaconitine increased the number of CD68+ cells in the peri-infarct and hippocampal regions, neuronal injury in the infarct region, sensorimotor and long-term memory dysfunctions. PHA-568487 treatment also reduced, while methyllycaconitine treatment increased atrophy of hippocampal granule cell layer and white matter damage in the striatum. In addition, PHA-568487 treatment increased neuron proliferation in granule cell layer. Our data indicated that reduction of neuroinflammation through activation of α-7 nAchR decreased neuronal damage, sensorimotor and long-term memory dysfunction of mice with BF shortly before stroke.
