Scoring Tool Predicts Seven-Day Stroke Risk After TIA
The Canadian Transient Ischemic Attack Score effectively stratifies seven-day stroke risk among emergency department patients with TIA.
Transient Ischemic Attack
Transient Ischemic Attack Associated With Increased Risk of Subsequent Stroke
Study researchers investigated the population based incidence of transient ischemic attack (TIA) and the long-term stroke risk trends following TIA.
Impact of COVID-19 on Stroke, and TIA Admission Rates, and Prognosis
The admission rates of ischemic stroke and TIA were lower during the first weeks of the 2020 COVID-19 lockdown compared with those of 2017-2019.
Anticoagulant vs Antiplatelet Therapy in Recurrent Ischemic Stroke Risk
Study authors compared the safety and efficacy of oral anticoagulants vs antiplatelets in patients with stroke and supracardiac atherosclerosis.
Ticagrelor-Aspirin Beneficial for Mild-to-Moderate Stroke, TIA
Ticagrelor-aspirin is associated with a reduced risk for the composite of stroke or death within 30 days of mild-to-moderate acute noncardioembolic ischemic stroke or TIA.
Recommendations for Management of Ischemic Stroke in Adults With COVID-19
A panel prepared a comprehensive set of practice implications for clinicians caring for adults with acute ischemic stroke with confirmed or suspected of having COVID-19.
Predictors of Atrial Fibrillation in Patients With Transient Ischemic Attack
Patients with transient ischemic attack with high brain natriuretic peptide values are more likely to have atrial fibrillation.
Higher Combined oxLDL and LDL Levels Found to Be Associated With Recurrent Stroke
The combination of higher serum oxLDL and LDL levels was found to be associated with an increased risk for recurrent stroke and poor functional outcomes in patients who have had minor stroke or are at high risk for TIAs.
Vitamin K Antagonist Cessation and Stroke/TIA Risk in Newly Diagnosed Atrial Fibrillation
Discontinuation of vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulant therapy was associated with an elevated risk for stroke or transient ischemic attack in patients newly diagnosed with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation.
Risk Factors Are Frequently Inadequately Treated in Patients With Stroke or TIA
In patients with ischemic stroke and TIA there is a significant gap between cerebrovascular risk factors control and real-world stroke prevention.
