Intracranial artery stenosis or occlusion predicts ischemic recurrence after transient ischemic attack.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Patterns of DWI findings that predict recurrent ischemic events after TIA are well-established, but similar assessments of intracranial MRA findings are not available. We sought to determine the imaging characteristics of MRA that are predictive of early recurrent stroke/TIA in patients with TIA. MATERIALS AND METHODS We performed a retrospective analysis of 129 consecu...
متن کاملEarly stroke risk after transient ischemic attack among individuals with symptomatic intracranial artery stenosis.
BACKGROUND Little is known about short-term vascular risk after transient ischemic attack (TIA) caused by intracranial atherosclerosis. OBJECTIVES To quantify the early risk of ischemic stroke in the territory of a stenotic intracranial artery after TIA and to identify clinical and imaging features associated with increased risk of stroke in the territory among patients with TIA. DESIGN Coh...
متن کاملLow ankle-brachial index predicts cardiovascular risk after acute ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE A low ankle-brachial blood pressure index (ABI) is an established risk marker for cardiovascular disease and mortality in the general population, but little is known about its prognostic value in individuals with acute ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA). METHODS An inception cohort of 204 patients with acute ischemic stroke or TIA was followed up for a m...
متن کاملLarge-Artery Stenosis Predicts Subsequent Vascular Events in Patients with Transient Ischemic Attack
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE We investigated subsequent vascular events in patients with transient ischemic attack (TIA) and determined the predictors of such events among vascular risk factors including large-artery disease, TIA-symptom duration, and acute ischemic lesions on diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI). METHODS We identified 98 consecutive patients with TIA who visited a tertiary university ...
متن کاملStroke or transient ischemic attacks with basilar artery stenosis or occlusion: clinical patterns and outcome.
BACKGROUND Basilar artery occlusion (BAO) is associated with a high mortality rate, although cases with spontaneous favorable outcomes have recently been reported, and basilar artery stenosis (BAS) has received little consideration until now. OBJECTIVE To study the prognostic clinical factors by testing numerous combinations of admission status characteristics of patients with brain ischemia ...
