Sex modified the association between stroke subtype and severity (embolic vs thrombotic stroke,pinteraction = 0.03, per severity category, females OR 2.38, 95% CI 1.55–3.66; males OR 1.75, 95% CI 1.09–2.82). The risk of death (median follow-up 5 years, interquartile range 1–12) was ...
Types of ischemic stroke There are two main types of ischemic stroke: Thrombotic strokes.They're caused by a blood clot that forms in an artery that supplies blood to your brain, also called an atherosclerotic stroke. Embolic strokes.They happen when a clot forms somewhere else in your body ...
Ischemic stroke is an acute neurological condition caused by impaired cerebral blood flow (e.g., vascular occlusion or systemic hypoperfusion). The most important risk factors are chronic systemic ...
0.1-0.9).Our finding of a trend toward a lower MI risk after lacunar vs nonlacunar stroke and confirmation of both a lower early recurrence risk after lacunar stroke and a tendency of recurrent stroke subtypes to "breed true" support the notion of a distinct nonatherothrombotic lacunar arteriop...
1. Which of the following is true regarding thrombotic ischemic stroke (thrombotic stroke)? It's usually caused by a blood clot in the lungs. It is caused by too much oxygen being delivered to the brain. A blood clot travels to the artery supplying the brain. ...

Atherothrombotic type of ischemic stroke was frequently in male (37.4% vs. 31.6%, p=0.0013) and cardioembolic in female (21.7% vs. 15.5%, p<0.0001). At admission female had lower SS (SS 31.0 +/- 15 vs. 34.0 +/- 15, p<0.0001). Thirty-day mortality was significantly higher in ...
This is accomplished via (i) antiplatelet or anticoagulant agents to decrease thrombotic potential, (ii) surgical treatment of extracranial carotid stenosis, and (iii) risk factor modification. III.D.1 Acute Stroke Therapy III.D.1.a Thrombolytic Agents Since the extent of stroke-induced brain ...
