Incidence, outcome, risk factors, and long-term prognosis of cryptogenic transient ischaemic attack and ischaemic stroke: a population-based study
BACKGROUND A third of transient ischaemic attacks (TIAs) and ischaemic strokes are of undetermined cause (ie, cryptogenic), potentially undermining secondary prevention. If these events are due to occult atheroma, the risk-factor profile and coronary prognosis should resemble that of overt large artery events. If they have a cardioembolic cause, the risk of future cardioembolic events should be...
متن کاملValidation and refinement of scores to predict very early stroke risk after transient ischaemic attack.
BACKGROUND We aimed to validate two similar existing prognostic scores for early risk of stroke after transient ischaemic attack (TIA) and to derive and validate a unified score optimised for prediction of 2-day stroke risk to inform emergency management. METHODS The California and ABCD scores were validated in four independent groups of patients (n=2893) diagnosed with TIA in emergency depar...
متن کاملPotential and failure of the ABCD2 score in stroke risk prediction after transient ischemic attack.
See related articles, pages 844–850 and 851–856. Patients with transient ischemic attacks (TIAs) are a heterogeneous group in terms of risk factors, symptomatology, underlying disorders, and prognosis.1 The importance of recognizing this common condition lies in the high risk of early stroke that TIAs carry (3.1% at 2 days, 5.2% at 7 days, 8.0% at 30 days, and 9.2% at 90 days).2,3 Recent eviden...
متن کاملPrevalence and long-term clinical significance of intracranial atherosclerosis after ischaemic stroke or transient ischaemic attack: a cohort study
OBJECTIVES We investigated the prevalence and long-term risk associated with intracranial atherosclerosis identified during routine evaluation. DESIGN This study presents data from a prospective cohort of patients admitted to our stroke unit for thrombolysis evaluation. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS We included 652 with a final diagnosis of ischaemic stroke or transient ischaemic attack (TIA) fr...
متن کاملIncidence of transient ischemic attack and early stroke risk: validation of the ABCD2 score in an Italian population-based study.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The importance of transient ischemic attack (TIA) lies on the short-term risk of stroke, and the ABCD2 score may improve early stroke risk prediction. However, population-based studies are still needed. We aimed to provide data on TIA incidence and to evaluate the ABCD2 predictive ability for early recurrent stroke in a population-based study. METHODS This study is part...
