Background/Aims: The aims of this study were to determine the differences in clinical characteristics and the risk of ischemic stroke between patients with transient ischemic attack (TIA) attributable to extracranial carotid and intracranial artery occlusive lesions. Methods: Among 445 patients admitted ...
Patent foramen ovale (PFO) has been recently implicated as a strong predictor of stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) in patients with implanted pacemaker or defibrillation leads. Leads in the right heart can form thrombi that embolize to the pulmonary circulation and raise pulmonary pressure...
[95% CI, −2.6 to −5.5]), peripheral artery disease (9.7% to 4.8%, percentage change −4.8 [95% CI, −3.0 to −6.6]), stroke or transient ischemic attack (6.2% to 4.0%, percentage change, −2.3 [95% CI, −0.08 to −3.8]), or any of the above (25.9% to 17.1...
It included 70 carotid bifurcation plaques from 70 consecutive patients (20 symptomatic [2 stroke and 18 transient ischemia attack] and 50 asymptomatic) scheduled for carotid endarterectomy from January 2015 to February 2016.21 The degree of stenosis ranged from 60% to 99% (North American ...
Conclusions: Ischemic stroke in children of Mainland Chinese is much more common than haemorrhagic stroke. Many cases are idiopathic. Genetic predisposition combined with transient infection may be involved in stroke formation during childhood. Vitamin K deficiency is a major risk factor in young ...

Characteristics of patients hospitalized for transient ischemic attack (TIA) management before and during this hospitalization and follow-up are not well documented on very large populations. Among the 51 million beneficiaries of the French national health insurance general scheme (77% of French ...
Background Neuroimaging is essential for the diagnosis and prognosis of transient ischemic attack (TIA). The discovery of a plasmatic biomarker related to neuroimaging findings is of enormous interest because, despite its relevance, magnetic resonance diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) is not always ...
Moreover, transient ischemic attack patients classified as high-risk group according to the ABCD score have a higher incidence of stroke. Therefore, the objective of this study was to investigate the plaque characteristics of transient ischemic attack patients with concomitant cerebral...
